[treboltenerife]

Magic......

[TTstarcraft]

This is what its all about...

[Jostipi]

If this only is half his voice, his full voice will fucking destroy your mind with awesomness.

[danengs]

Stunning talent.

[diegof117]

Wow, I'm not a big fan of Sting, nor The Police, but this performance gave me goose-bumps,specially the final part.

[antypok]

[RowdyBill12]

Why is this not the most viewed video once-twice a year, truly historical, Sting is a treasure, everyone knows where his words are going...great!

[sweetgyy]

kick ass!

[geoped1]

he's loved/worshipped 'cause he's so damned talented; he's hated/despised...'cause he's so damned talented.

[nickgiant830]

wow..amazing impromptu performance...listen to the fans!

[boeika538]

[TheMrDobbins]

[bogotaz1973]

That's AN ARTIST.

[yokichi40]

when was it?

[scuffler]

awesome... watch and learn

[nemesisnix7]

The best singer ever, good memories with this song too

[agenthelios]

This is why Sting is a legend....no other artist would do this!

[Traktorpigen]

what year is this from?

[cortinex]

pure genius!

[lapwiz]

A man, a guitar, a voice, a cause and the people.

It doesn't get any better than that.

[iamNinaVanEns]

Amazing voice, great song.

[manrayyy]

Okay this is one of my all time favorites....I had this on an old tape that I played so much it fell apart. I remember one night after leaving a girlfriends apartment in Hayward playing this song...singing at the top of my lungs!

[penguinmama88]

Love this. London is his band. You brits totally ROCK!

[tobto1]

emptiness into voice. where is energy of the band?

[Puckanm]

This was a solo for someone elses concert... It was just him no band showing how great He can play and sing just a man and his guitar.

[dougalmac54]

in the audience, you goober!

[seriouslyandrae]

Police, Phil Collins, Inxs, etc. were some of the great bands of the 80s. you need to do your research on this infectious band before you make such a tasteless comment!

[Joey63xy]

great show :-)

[Bizness10]

Thumbs up!

[korgmatose1]

Why is he so often playing by himself?

[ctk1234]

The Police, his band, broke up from the early-mid 80's until their last little tour a year or two ago. They all kinda do their own thing now.

[TruthAxe]

Because Sting likes to play with himself.

[Thystonius]

This is so cool, just picking up a guitar because the crowd asks to sing a song and then make such a performance :D

[ALEXMANGOLE]

i remember this song in 1998 inthe birthiday of my newphew,i became mad(overdose)

[krindenow]

Awesome version of this song

[thesecretpolice]

this is great

love the shots of the crowd singing along...

[LeGod89]

'South London' actually - I'm from the South of England and I'm sick of people thinking of London as defining the South. Video is excellent.

[pazure]

Are all you South Londoners this easily upset?

[LeGod89]

Yes. Because living in a large city stinking of shit sort of puts you on the edge.

[pazure]

lol...

So you ARE a South Londoner?

To me, the South of England is Southampton, Torquay and Brighton...but I'm just a Brit transplanted at an early age (7) to the U.S. The latter 2 I remember to be "beachey" towns.

[devilfish001]

This concert was held in clapham common on 28th June 1986. Anti apartheid festival.

[Riddler95]

what year was this ?

[moonrakerschalker]

He don't rocks the crowd, he is like god talking to 100.000 people lol

[osuturfman]

Totally agree, it's amazing how one person can command the attention of that many people.

[ManusCelerDei]

it's actually pretty easy with amplifiers and a speaker systems...

[superandi91]

great man

he rules the crowd only with his voice and a quiet guitar that's fucking great

[mpatrick2006]

wow very rare, and impromptu too, old sting can pull it off with no preparation at all. a master.

[sting8209]

I really like this video and especially how Sting and The Police involved the audience in many songs. What a great experience for anyone there.

[dalymc]

This was at Clapham Common, South London- Around the time of his 1st solo album (1985) "Blue turtles".He is interviewed in that beige raincoat he wore 4 the 1st solo tour- & playing the black strat guitar from the Bring on the Night docu. and "set them free" & "Fortress" vids.

[Corrupt1592]

Great video but I'd guess this was a while after he left the Police - he looked younger in 1985.

[bubblesploutch]

la chanson prend tout son sens avec andy summer et stewart copeland

[moonrakerschalker]

oui mais vu ce que fait l'ami sting la avec sa petite guitare et son immense talent, c'est carrément enorme, il fait réagir la foule de maniere incroyable

[dylan134]

tres bien man,

[sadaist]

No one can even come close to Sting.

the best voice ever!!

[wrnchhead76]

Badass.

[Patt201]

couldn't have said it better, no really I was gonna say the exact word.

[ScaperSteph]

THis is great!

[MineAllMine88]

This looks more around 1985-86, around the Blue Turtles era. You can tell by the haircut and the black Fender Strat.

[Thystonius]

I second Appeltaart... this videoclip gets me the tears in my eyes :)

[sadaist]

Damn! That was good.

[music4themass]

Listen to the voice cos the life shows really expose who have a real voice and those only can sing in a stuido right ! Sting the Mannnnn .

[ugoinsidevideo]

[EtienneNirvanaBob]

[kingdomcool]

[kykyzim24]

best singer plus band ever so much talent.

[appeltaart88]

how about that for having only half a voice

[cortinex]

@badtown: you are so right... it's just not fair!

[badtown88]

He really knows how to get a croud going. I seriuosly think Sting is so UNDERrated.

[JennieMR]

Oh!! NICE!!! Thank you!!!

[del1950]

Sting at his best

[Invisible23]
