Saw this film, years ago, as I was a big 'Police' fan back then. The original part of 'Martin' [the character that Sting plays in the film} was due to be played by David Bowie. But Bowie was unavailable for the part back then. The producer then turned to Sting to play the lead, and what an inspired selection that was.
Oh that's interesting, thanks. I gave "Broken Music" a quick read, but missed that part. I didn't think he spoke very much about Frances, for obvious reasons.
OT: he was also unclear about why his first girlfriend died so young. He sort of implied (or maybe I misunderstood) that she killed herself, possibly over him leaving her.
ok...sting played a conman/devil no one knows. he cons his way into the house of an older couple with a older girl "21"ISH who is traumatized by something ...but she is a vegetable of sorts. and stings passion grows for her...then he rapes her.....then we find out a dark seceret......the movie is called BRIMSTONE AND TREACLE. seems out-dated now, but still good. A movie with a story NOT ACTION!!
if only the movie were the way you made the video. god i want to cry myself into this world. i want to be free in my own destruction. i want life to be how you interpret it in your video.
Thank u, Gilmourka...Sting gave a very credible performance (reminiscent of a young Malcom Mcdowell), in the beautifully weird BRIMSTONE&TREACLE...kudos to your exciting ´music video´.
My God! With this amazing video I've realized that Sting is such a big part of me. His singing here, particularly at the word "lie", really affects me, as do the enchanting lyrics.
When will the Last Exit recordings be released? I do believe that Sting is a dark genius.
Your video is an inroad into his mystery. Thank you so much for uploading it!
This is a stunning version of the song. I saw Brimstone & Treacle years ago when it first came out in the pictures. They makers where originally going to use David Bowie as the lead part, but something happened, whether he turned them down or something I don't know. So, their next choice was inspired...they went for Sting, who was a huge star back then, not so much now. But, back then, he was massive. His acting in this film is beyond belief, creepy, and brilliant. and this song...the best.
did you also know the actor denholm elliot , who plays the father of the girl was hitting on sting ???? he made it his mission to seduce sting !!1 he was later known as colman the butler inthe movie with eddie murphy trading places.
I just love this song heard it first when i saw the film Brimstone and Treacle. I have The Police versionand played it to death. I have to say this version is so beautiful thanx for putting it on...;o)
sting is my fav. singer and actor i have 12 or more cds, ive seen him in concert and have some of the movies hes acted in and this is my fav video of him on you tube:)
i burn for you is one of my "the police" fav' songs...and it was so intersting to hear the first version. it was nice to hear the missing house- "deep in my heart......"
Really nice job on the video editing (particularly the use of some of the film's most quiet scenes) and it was so cool to hear this early version of the song, which is even more sinister and intimate than The Police version.
In a way, the feeling of this is a little like "once upon a daydream" a Police b-side (from Synchronicity II single) which is dark but transcendent.
