The lyrics even apply to our current times. Most of our so-called leaders are corrupt, two-faced; we wallow in narcississm, and are slaves to material wishes. What a masterpiece of a song !
@anaquarian1 I hear what you're saying, but in your words your exposing an obvious dilemma. Accepting images and energy is the easy part. Acquiescence is a choice. Utilizing that "spark", which creates the spirit that drives men and women, is an art. Exposing that "spark", to a lover, in your art, in your life, is the way we return that energy back to its rightful place. For all to enjoy. Holla back.
@39user274502 : At last somebody who use the words : "seeing the big picture" ! 85 procent of humanity doesn't see it or are to stupid to understand. 10 procent understands and doesn't care, they destroy our planet and do not care. I'm one of those other 5 procent who see it all happening and know that humanity is doomed ...
@schmidt8484 Indeed,we ARE.This world has made for us,to live in,and preparing ourselves for the unknown.The most important is to learn as much as possible,that will feed our spirit and let it grow.And love actually is an important thing to.such as peace and respect.
LOVE the bass in this song!

I just glanced at the screen and thought it said "6 pints in the material world". Make that 6 pints and a kebab and you might have a deal.

I wish the Police stayed together longer throughout the 80s. Sting's solo work was "soft-jazz" for the most part.
