THE REVIEW
Top of the music. Am I biased? Yes, completely partisan. And first, I put Reggata de Blanc, which still gives me chills when I listen to it at full volume, just like at the Palasport in Turin, like in front of the stereo in my teenage room. Then, about the others, you have written everything, so I won't add anything, as it would be trivial. But for heaven's sake, dress like a wild savage, close your eyes, and let yourself be carried away by the rhythm of reggatta... and then tell me if you don’t feel your bare feet lift the dry ground, and if you don't feel like you're swinging on vines from one trunk to another 25 meters from that same earth you just trod on... come on, be honest!

The only common denominator of the album was the elegance of Sting, the grace of Andy Summers, the creativity of Copeland.
The message in the bottle has truly reached its destination.
By claudio carpentieri
"Message In A Bottle is a perfect union between music (energetic and ingenious) and lyrics (incisive and essential)."
"The perfect blend of new ideas, compositional talent, and executive freshness make Reggatta De Blanc a container from which originates a new sonic archetype."
By kain3325
The song’s lyrics perfectly capture the indifference enveloping a society already disillusioned by the ideals of the seventies.
Sting’s musical ideas are paving his way toward dreams that seemed unattainable just a few years earlier.
