English musician Sting and wife Trudie Styler have received an honorary degree from Brown University in the US.

Sting performed My One and Only Love for the graduates as a way of giving thanks.

 It's not the first honorary degree Sting has received, with the musician awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Music by the University of Newcastle upon Tyne in 2006.

Talking to sister station Triple M's Lee Simon after the 2016 Grand Final, the 17 Grammy award winner, Sting said he didn't want anymore awards, as the pressure was too much, but it seems degree's are on the cards.

Listen to the interview:

Since forming the band The Police in 1977, Sting has gone onto have a successful solo career and recently and strangely collaborating with Shaggy.
