it might brings back the memory of some old hongkongers. except the train station are shot in Japan, the video take shots from the streets of Hong Kong, old trams, wet markets, traffic pavilion and a old police jeep from Royal Hong Kong Police. Very nice video.
I had this on 8 track when it came out. I had cable tv with MTV. First time i have ever seen this video. I'd like to have a dollar for every time I played this song in a cover band in club with 200 or more drunks in a huge sing a long. Good times! Great song!
Like I said, she was an 80's newsreader for the BBC in UK. She is famous for carrying on reading the news when the studio was stormed by lesbian rights protesters. A bit before your time, old fruit ! Bit of an in joke for us old fogey's that remember the eighties !
She is a British newsreader from the 70s that Sting supposedly had a crush on. Its a rumour that started because "so lonely" sounds a bit like "sue lawley".
i agree. i really liked all that you can't leave behind, but they havent had anything close to that or the classic albums in a while. it seems they are getting so pop. they even released like that dance version of ill go crazy if i dont go crazy tonight which is terrible
Don't be ashamed my friend, this is real music. Sadly enough most people that call them selves musicians these days could not even attempt to understand the drums or guitar in the song.
Because at such a young age you have already discovered that music is about how it makes you feel, and not about what is the latest fashion. Good for you! I found out that there are alot of songs that were made before my time that sound great.
Dude your awesome you got some guts to actually post that on youtube am 13 and when I listen to Metallica or Megadeth or school i start throwin my head around I'll make a vid with everyone whatching so that you can see i really don"t care
this song is great..yesterday i had the chase to hang out whit a girl and i let the chance pass..and when i wass coming to home i listen this songg..really sad
I REALLY feel so lonely that my situation made me remind of this song which I hadn't heard "a thousand years ago. Alone, ill and no money. Fantastic situation. I´ve seen this group 3o years algo, when I was 14. Well.....
i've seen the police all 5 times that they came to montreal over a 25 year period, and twice in one year. i sure do miss them, but will never ever tire of them. yes i am a sucker who paid twice for very expensive tickets in one year. heehee
I just listened to that song and it sucked. Freedom by Eddie James is nowhere near as good as this song. I shuddered when I heard it. I am am absolutely remorseful that you think christian music can compare to the Police. Do you know what your saying? Obviously not, so enjoy your crappy christian music, and let people who know real music enjoy.
Calm Down. I love the police. There's no reason to get all up in arms because I pointed out an ironic fact. The multipart vocal harmonies are part of what make the police such a great band.
what i love about the police is that they felt they could all have such fun being silly and having a good time in their music videos, i mean, check out "everything she does is magic", they're walking all over the studio soundboards!
