Sting isn’t letting Sean “Diddy” Combs‘ legal battles affect his opinion on The Police’s song, “Every Breath You Take.” The 73-year-old musician (real name Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner) told the Los Angeles Times in an interview published on Monday,

Sting previously told Rolling Stone that he put his kids through college simply from the proceeds of Sean Comb's sample on "I'll Be Missing You"

Every Breath You Take was released by The Police in 1983 and the song was later sampled by Diddy for I'll Be Missing You, a tribute to The Notorious B.I.G.
