"Don't Stand So Close To Me" is on Zenyatta Mondatta, I believe.
After the Police re-formed in 1986, they were going to re-record several of
their songs, but they only redid "Don't Stand So Close To Me." It's on the
Greatest Hits album.
I do not believe Sting ever did a solo version of it on one of his albums.
