  • My favourite song of all time, I love love love this song

  • locos por esta musica

  • the song is awesome but the video kinda sucks !

    ps: this song hurt my left hand so badly on a guitar .

  • @glvillela45 agree with you, it does hurt the left hand, there is another way to play it, but sounds pretty different.

  • awesome =D

  • len got this message

  • if this song was made in 2009 the SOS would have been replaced by SMS.... XD

  • sad

  • miticaaaa!!

  • i hope that someone gets my message in a bottle....

    buena letra, buena musica y buen grupo...

    only hope can..

  • lo mejor en su época

  • sos means save our ship really i got this listed as best song of all times

  • The tale os Save our souls is not true. The reason is that S-O-S is the easier message that can be send in morse code.

  • amazing song (y)

  • one of the best bassists ever

  • Love the guitar parts. They're great. Play gh smash hits al the time. ♥ this song.

  • I bougth it on Rock Band after i listen it the first time ^_^

  • hahahah y dont you just learn it on a real instrument?

  • Fantastic song.Listen to a great cover of this song here on youtube.

    Look for Primeiro Instinto. It's great!!

  • Hard to pick one Police song as a favorite, but this would easily be top 5.

    Wished there was a version of this with focus of Copeland playing the drums because the drum work is outstanding.

  • Wow this song came out in 1979, but it still sounds pretty fresh. It's timeless I guess.

  • Beautiful song! Reminds me of how the world needs to send out a message in a bottle...

  • muito bom esse video, essa musica é demais *-*

  • absolute brilliant song , the lyrics and absoultely amazing and the guitar sounds so extraudinary!!

  • I put a message in a bottle and put it in the ocean. I wonder has it washed up upon the shore yet.

  • stewart copeland.

  • what was the drummer name?

  • I remember when The Police first came out (Yeah, I'm that old). I agree with you camlpg, they did some guitar solos in their songs, I'd go for Alex Lifeson from Rush.

    Could never work out why people think Sting has got any talent though. If you're crap, surround yourself with good musicians and no one will notice.

  • Listen to best acustic cover of this song here on Youtube.

    Look for Primeiro Instinto.

    That's Amazing!!!!

  • There is some lead guitar in this song, must be a ghost. Hmmm, that means thi s band needs a lead guitarist, hmmm, who would be a great addition to The Police - Yngwie Malmsteen? What do the people think?

  • That name has no place here. Dont go there mate..just dont....

  • you know that i believe english people don't really use sos to say sos, they use stg else like gkp or stg like that :)

    i noticed that in watching titanic, when captain smith sends a " sos", he doesn't use the word sos.

    that was for the little story :) i'm fucking useless

  • no you are not :)

  • what is the meaning of s.o.s.?

  • it has tons of meaning.

    save.our.ship.

    Save Our Souls

    Survivors On Ship

    the original meaning is SOS is the commonly used description for the International Morse code distress signal. thats all that is important of it really, lots more info on it, kinda pointless if u ask me.

  • whoa, thnx

  • save our souls

  • suck our shit

  • Abbreviation of "Save Our Souls", a signal to request (very) necessary help

  • maybe i am born in 1995 but i just love those old songs! i even some times which that i could be in those times were people had those funkky clothes and going out on parties and stuff

  • @butterfaceG me too!

  • same ,but not with th clothes :S

  • Never a song treat the human condition like this song.Love, Loneliness and Hope. For this that song is number one!

  • @cylinder4ify

    I hope you're forgetting the Beatles. They're from Great Britain too.

  • @supernewber1 I kind of 2 young to remember them (Beatles)as a group

  • Bad Ass Song!!!!!!!!! Possibly the best song ever created by a white man from Great Britain!!!!

  • nah i was just joking haahhahahhhahahahah :P

  • @butterfaceG OH SHIT!!!! My apology;(, I didnt see your second comment;(, that u were only kidding, Your NOT blocked;)

  • *You're

  • white men

  • @fuckamericanidiot Most people totally miss the moral of this song. If u listen to the lyrics, u can kind of paradox of Winston Churhill sending 'sos to the world" after b'ing bombed by germans. And u know the rest of story. (ButterfaceG u are a retard, and blocked!!!)

  • que buena canción!

  • Latin'Aérica!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • this is about love right? or am i wrong? But anyway great song

  • The song is about loneliness ... however 'not alone in being alone' .... great lyric ... awesome band.

  • What's with the Orville Redenbacher look?

  • Yet who's the one that broke off and went successful on his own? It's sting of course. He is the poet and the real musician and everything behind this group.

  • it was stewart copelands band to begin with. i dont get why he gets no credit. just like the drummer of U2 started that band.

  • pld and good music $4

  • great song, great vocal, great guitar

  • great great great!!

  • fucking amazing band. great song. so easy to fall in love with them again after all these years...

  • Surely all the things you mentioned (besides being a terrible wanker :-) are just what a good "front man " needs ? I have never seen a reticent laid back frontman yet .

  • this video is a treat lol

  • machine head made a version of this?.. i gotta check that out

  • good song but sting is a tool

  • i completely agree with @UsernameIsPending.....sting is a tool....great voice but as Paul Weller once said he is a terrible wanker....and even if you at this video you can see he just oozes over confidence, vanity and an ultra ego......must saw that i think stuart copeland on the other hand is a legend and a fantastic musician. But if u see the video it is obvious that sting really pisses off the other band members...especially stuart copeland who seems to really dislike him....and rightly so!!

  • Can't believe that he is wearing a bow tie. Such a good band. Odd times, odd beats, tensions, cool lyrics, and big choruses. Awesome musicians

  • Great!

  • sting has a sickass voice..

  • I like the cover of Di-rect the most! (l)

  • i like both versions (by The Police and Machine Head), but this one has a charm that can't be comparable to MH's.

  • I hope that someone guest my.....

  • it sounds slower...

  • so im NOT the only one to notice that

  • i agree ... it is slower.

  • one of the very best tunes of all time

  • cool song

  • Just got a copy of Stewart Copeland's Strange Things Happen: A Life with The Police, Polo, and Pygmies Book!

  • love this

  • Good song, but this might just be the MOST BORING music video of all time. OF ALL TIME!

  • Copeland is definitely my favorite drummer.

  • Stewart Copeland's cymbal work on this song are nothing short of superhuman. Only drummer i've ever heard to hit cymbals with his fluid rapidity is Neil Peart. Simply one of the finest 3 person bands ever. Andy Summers is a great guitarist and Sting's bass adds a tremendous groove to this song. One of my favorite Police songs.

  • I love The Police!!!!!!!!!

  • i guess it goes to show the vid can be shit if the music speaks for itself

  • I'd rather have a bad video with good music than a good video with bad music like every band today.

  • They make a dick of themselves in this clip but I love the music :)

  • they made some lovely noise, these three, hecko...

  • how did you create the ring tone?

  • yes... it's slower bout a couple second.....

  • Has anyone noticed that the music video plays the song slower than on the album?

  • hmm. this message isnt automated spam, because 0:34 to1:06 is the chorus, so it has been personally developed. clever.

    before you ask, I answer no. No I don't have a life :(

  • then get 1

  • u hav a life eveyone does and dude ur right about 0:34 to 1:06 just cuz u know ur music does not mean u dont hav a life

    mate x

  • amen to that

  • Mesecina bato!

  • LOL @ Stuart's lil dancee movess hahaa ;D

  • A terror on the dance floor at 1:03 and 1:50.

    He´s so GOOD!

  • I Think those guys looks like a gayboys... but good music.

  • You're probably good at picking out fags. Takes one to know one.

  • my son's lil tikes guitar plays this song. LOL!

  • this is a tunnnnne i love it!

  • you must be very smart to realise this.

  • you tube rocks, where else you could you see a rock video from the Police

  • Hey, UNIVERSALMUSICGROUP, let me link this from my ORKUT account, "videos" tab. DON' T GREEDY. I want to show this track to MY FRINDS. GET UP WITH THE TIMES.

    (angry passionate The Police fan)

  • Message In A Boooottle :)

  • In my opinion, this is the best song by Police.

  • This and Invisible Sun are my top two.

  • i'll send a sos to the world

  • Walked out this morning, don't believe what I saw

    Hundred billion bottles washed up on the shore

    Seems I'm not alone in being alone

    Hundred billion castaways, looking for a home wahaha what a nice text:D

  • been on the good old herbale everyone smokes it now its like eating these days haha :)

  • hahahaha ya they seem pretty fucked up.

  • These guys were high as fuck in this video. Jesus christ.

  • nah the drummer is but sting dosen't look at all baked but u shd c pete doherty live, that is someone on all kinds of crazy shit!!!!!!

  • A great cover version : watch?v=bYEQoiHpivQ&feature=re­lated

  • awesome song

  • The 80s were great. Look at how they just screw around in a little room and that's pretty much their video.

  • tHE SONG IN rOCKBAND uNPLUGGED FOR psp IS BETTER

  • I love them but this music video is a little odd..... one reason to love it <3

  • are you people fucking dumb... hes just air drumming fooling around. there not acually playing in that little dressing room

  • Has anyone noticed that the drummer never uses a drum? I think he is a fake. Look at walking on the moon he nevers drums there ! Always pretending he has a drum but he's drumming in the air !!!! To they have a syntezer or are they tripping on lsd? We should call the police

  • Oh my god! Youre so right!

    Ive never noticed it!

    Lets call the police

  • Ye you know like, the police is great but what happend with the drummer??

    I think we really should call the police

  • Stop with Copeland, Andy Summers is a great musician too, the people speaks every time of sterwart on the youtube videos.

  • sting love fiorentina!the best!

    firenze is the best city in the world! :)

  • i wonder what this song would sound like with the fray.Probably really bad with the fray even do fray is my favorite band.They just don't fit for this song.

  • I'm learning this song on guitar the pinkie stretch in the beginning is a good exercise

  • impecable banda..un hit en la historia..uno d los mejores temas de the police

  • the vid suck but the song is cool

  • i agree

  • You are obviously very young. This is the way most videos were, the band and the music. In my opinion something has been lost.

  • serbia krusevac

  • This is there best song such a tune just to chill to.

  • they are all blond? is that just a codincadince?

  • It's a co-inkydink

  • They had not enough money to produce their first album, so they decided to dye their hair blond for a commercial.

  • lmaoo

  • great band..sting..so handsome

  • good song an im 20 got 2 love them good band

  • i love it

  • Mon opinel a du mal coupé ! mdr

  • fucking ad

  • Feyd Rautha !

  • yah sting is the bass player who was the loser who said he's not

  • why not?

  • i dont hate it but it not my favorie song.

  • then yd u listen to it?

  • idk i felt like it

  • love song hate vid

  • but if you know the intense history of the band, the video becomes pretty illuminating.

    the drummer and sting HATED each other. or, they loved each other, but still fought like CRAZY.

    you can see in their body language in this video so much of how they feel about each other. and notice andy summers, the guitarist. so cool, so unaffected. just wants to make art.

  • Does nayone know the link of the solo's tab it would really awesome
