Haha, funny, Sting starts playing bass and founds himself totally out of tune on his fretless (0:41), he then looks on the neck to know where he is. Super cool band!
Love the song! Mark and I are mad about each other and are true companions that are blessed with eternal love....We are all Blessed with this creative artist and Sting is so beautiful inside and out!

friend dont waste ur energy with this piece of shit people, as long as u know whts right go for it, this people r in a very low level, dont let them pull u down, just keep ur head up and be proud of who u r, god bless
Sting is the stone's throw from Jerusalem, he is the one who walks a lonely mile in the moonlight, he's the one who howls at the moon and many more things...
yes this song is not Stings original! It was written by a very famouse singer and song writet George Dalaras who wrote the song as a duet with Greek and english lyrics. Sting was chosen and taken to sing this song with Dalaras. It was only later on that Sting has used this song and translated it to full english.
A Yamaha breath controller. It lets him control the saxish sound envelope by blowing as in a horn. The keyboard provides the notes, the BC the articulation
this song was actually origanly written by a very famous greek sing George dalaras... he then asked Sting to sing it with him but sing in english while Dalaras sang in greek... if u are a fan as i am of either of the singer you should check it out. he did a good job by himself but its soooooo much better with the 2 singers... has soo much feeling to it.
anyways do check it out and tell me what u think of it compared to this.
Yes, it's true. Actually I found it after I heard the Sting & Dalaras version which is a real gift : my favorite song from my favorite artists. I didn't know that they worked together and I didn't know that the song was of Dalaras' What a great surprise ! and what a shame of such ignorance... (excuse my primary English, it is my second language) but music is universal.
& his voice!! one of the "pretty" voices i just love. & yeh this a geat band: have never heard live versions, jsut the many cd's i pay till they're worn out. wish i coul see him in person. him, tom waits, ricki lee jones, a few few others. must see someday. what a man.
My ears drink in his lyrics like a thirsty plant that has been abandoned in heat of sun. He is my all time favorite performer. Seen in concert three years ago in AC and last year the Police Tour. I have never been so happ;y.
"you'd make a prison of my life, if you became anothers wife".. oh the poetry of it. This is my favourite Sting band. Loved Sancious on the keyboards. Loved the look of Sting himself at this age.
no it's how our enemies sound on opposite side of worlds tuening, chords progressions, still the bass is hear, such as and in seven ad five whirrled peas?
This is probably true. This songwriter I think has to be taken very,very,very seriously. Sting will live forever because this music will live forever.
Excuse me, but doesn't anyone care that this song is simply gorgeous?! Why pervert it by cursing the artists in an endless battle of who's car is bigger or whatever useless quarrel... The artists are simple channels for the song to be transmitted. Enjoy the music, and forget about your own useless pride...
wow thats kinda harsh , Kenny and David are two different players each great. I am however a HUGE David Sancious fan and have been for the better part of 25 years+
Just by the way, his being honored to play with Sting in no way invalidates his relative worth, nor indicates that most of anyone knows nothing about him.
I hate that 'this musician is better than that musician' crap. Who cares? They both rock hard in their respective areas. The fact one is great doesn't preclude the other from being great also. The need to prove superiority IMO is just disguised insecurity - thankfully neither Sting nor Sancious seem to suffer from that.
This is a great version of this song and those who think Sting is the lesser do not know what they are talking about. He is one of the greatest songwriters of the last 2 centuries and is a better musician than anyone gives him credit for. David Sancious would not bother if he didn't think so too.
The fact that David played with Sting in no way changes the fact that he was and is a superior musical talent. Circumstance relegated him to supporting others to survive. After leaving Peter Gabriel, he never played for anyone close to his level. I don't dislike Sting, but it'd take four of him to make one of David back in the 70s/80s, as anyone who knows his solo and session work with Stanley Clarke and Lenny White will likely attest. 'Miss those days mightily.
David Sancious is a great musician and it's sad to see him have to play second-fiddle sideman to the likes of lesser's like Sting and others. If you don't believe me checkout some of his (Sancious) solo cds.
I couldn't agree with you more. I'm just glad to see some Sancious finally show up on YouTube. I have this concert on VHS, but now don't have to go dig it out (I only kept it for David on this song).
Con la mejor banda para mi!. Colaiuta on drums!. The best band to me!!!.
