  • What does he mean when he says "you don't have to put on the red light"?

    I have hears that roxanne is a prostitute....is that true?

  • He doesn't want her to turn the red light on like she does all the other clients. He wants to treat her like a regular girl and fuck her in the dark.

  • haha I dribbled my drink, thanks

  • Yeah he is singing about a prostitute.

    Red is the color of prostitution, at least it was in those days.

  • pretty much to an extent

  • Sorry, but everytime i watch this, i cant stop LOL'ing hard at 2:15 XD

  • because at 2:15 he takes the mic out of the holder and starts singing to the holder instead of the mic :P

  • And then at 2.18 he smiles like: 'Haha wtf, srsly lol.' And starts singing in the mic again :P

    Barack Obama doesnt exist, you stupid sheeps! he is actually thin air that was modeled using a high tech computer programming system in Alaska using HAARP technology! WAKE UP SHEEPLE ALEX JONES TEH TRUTH.

  • Riiiiight, and I'm actually two midgets in a man costume.

    Even if hes thin air, hes thin air that's doing a good job.

  • What kind of good job he did? He says one and does another.

  • lol when i heard this song first i tought it was some jamaican guy. he got that voice and accent. and the guitar sounds a kinda reggea

  • There is onl one man who plays bass guitar without using hands - STING :)

  • the song is about a hooker dumb ass

  • this song i about the hard ships america faced with purchasing red lightbulbs during this time.This was due to the global cooling

  • @ninjasrtacos pmsl

  • fail

  • LOOOOOOOL

  • fuck your comercials

  • at 2.04 he takes his mic of

    and is singing to the holder of the mic

  • Sting!!!!

  • Nobody has to do that. Get public benefits or something else. The drugs are'nt worth it. All you will get is a disease and a coffin plus make everyone else ill. Your parts will be worn out and non-useable. Gross.

  • Basically, he's telling her to get off the street. I agree, women don't need to objectify themselves and the same for men. We have way too much of that these days.

  • my names roxanneeeeeeeee :D

  • do you put on the redlight ?

    I've got a fat 100 dollar bill right here

  • and i am police man baby!!

  • @weekdayboozer then you dont have to put on a red light xD

  • lmao, at 2:07 and 2:15, he sings into the mic stand!

  • straight up class music. Can you really beat 'the police' for feel good music?

  • U2 comes close

  • what is mean to put on the red light?

    this song is hot though(;

    my dad has the cd and we used to listen to it non-stop(:

  • well...I think she is a hooker :D

  • I can relate to the experience of listening to this non-stop on my dad's record collection and then taking a couple years to get what "to put on the red light" refers to =)

  • A red light symbolises a place of prostitution.

  • he means to not turn the lights on to the strip club because redlight is often used in strip clubs

  • I don't want to sound like a spammer or anything, but my account has a pretty funny version of this.

  • I dont think that the singer is talented.He has i good voice I think.Although he make o good career......

  • Excuse me .... ! Police? Not Good? You have not freaken Idear about music my Friend... FACT

  • roxanne is a hooker >:P

  • heard this song today for the first time earlier and wanted hear it again..its a pretty ku song

  • i love the chorus

  • all about the university game!!

  • i LOVEEE THIS SONG SOO MUCH!!

  • @lemac costed... lol

  • NOBODY works at a police station...

    unless not capable to work with his hands nor head. Brutal assholes dressed in uniforms, protrected animals...:I killed one 4 years ago.

    It was Clean-up time.

    It looked like an accidnet ,like the cops say...

  • ( L )

  • roxanne is said 25 times and red light is said 24 times i think is what i counted, with the drinking game u get slotted both ways hahaha

  • What A BeauTiFuL Song !!!! Another Song I HaVe NoT Heard In A WhiLe Thank YOU T For The Share ) GreaT Singers ExceLLenT Video

  • I swear the guitarist looks alot like Graham Chapman of Monty Python

  • Maman repose en paix.

  • Je t'espère qu'il n'y ait pas de signification cachée derrière ça..

  • best drinking game , stand up and take a swig to everytime he says roxanne

    epic

  • The drinking game is as follows:

    Girls take a drink every time they hear "Roxanne"

    Guys take a drink every time they hear "red light"

  • haha LOL

  • Nice the game

  • He is singing without the mic in minute 2:08 and then he laugh, so nice !!!

  • no not like that!! just cause they liked the song..

  • lol:P

    My parents gave me this name through this song..

  • great parents, naming their kid after a ho.

  • I had a buddy with a cartage company (hauled music equipment aroung) in NY in the '70's'. He came to LA and played me a tape of this before it was released and said "these guy are the next big thing to hit."

    I thought "Who the F is this screechy voice with a contorted back-beat band?!?"

    Man, how stupid was I?

  • ha wow

  • You were very stupid, Sting and the Police were one of the biggest bands of the 80`s.

  • a-men

  • Every time he says Roxanne, you take a drink of your beer (y)

  • oh yeah :)

  • rooooooxaaaaaannneee

  • stewart copeland is one of thee best drummers in the world. his style is so amazing.

  • Blasterman9,no,lol!

  • when does he use his guitar and he sings a couple of times he sings into the the stand with out the mic

  • @paintball2772 he does it at 2:08-2:18

  • He means lazy as in there is one basic rhythm. In other words he isn't a music major, neither am I but just by listening to the chords I can tell that he put some thought into the chord structure. I like this song, I like the rhythm and its mostly focused on the singer in my opinion anyway.

  • Jupiter has no taste obviously.

  • lazy? How so? Great chord structure-its actually not that easy to play. ANyone who says any of Stuart Copeland's drumming is lazy has never tried to play his parts...

    You're certainly entitled to your opinion.....just wondering what you mean by "lazy"?

  • yeah stuart copeland is like one of the best drummers of all time hes anything but lazy

  • Good drinking game song, 1 person drinks to 'Roxanne' the other to 'Redlight' lol

  • I love The Police....But you would have to listen to the music of Los Prisioneros ("Tren al sur"), and Soda Stereo ("De música ligera").

  • I remember Eddie Murphy singing to this in Beverly Hills Cop hahahahah :D

  • no 48 hrs he sang this

  • I thought he sang this song on "Trading Places"

  • or was it "48 Hours"

  • i think it was 48 hours???

  • a melhor música do the police!!!!!!!!!1

  • one of my all time favorite songs ever!!!

    but the moulin rouge version is pretty awesome

  • so many reggae artists(usually white) completely copy these guys style, they arent there own artists. i get really pissed when that happens

  • The Police Version < Moulin Rouge Version

  • truly brill

  • grandes influencias de sex pistols y the clash no creen

  • sipi, crees bastante bien!!!!!!!!!!! =) muy buena rola

  • i love this song im so glad there is no youtube arguments lol

  • heh, yea 2.15 ... fail!! and then a smile on his face :D he got it.. but too late

  • lol he pauses then looks where it should be!

  • Haha I just noticed that too. Funny =]

  • i bet he meant too.

  • roxaaaaaaaanne

  • Roxanne, you don't have to drink windex tonight!

  • es la mejor musica que he escuchado

  • 2:07 he sings to a mic stand :)
