The fifth single from the album ...Nothing Like The Sun (opens in a new tab) released in UK in August 1988.
Sting explained his song as a symbolic gesture of protest against the Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet whose regime killed thousands of people between 1973 and 1990. This song was recorded in both English (with some spoken Spanish words by the Panamanian salsa singer, Ruben Blades) and Spanish (with additional lyrics by Roberto Livi). This latter version was titled "Ellas Danzan Solas" and was released on the album ...Nada Como El Sol (opens in a new tab).
