Sting's compositional talent is up there with Lennon and McCartney.His voice is uniquely brilliant and his bass playing is underrated.I was listening to his bassline on "Spirits"and its an incredible take on the song.A maverick genius who doesnt settle for formula!!
o mercy we love u Sting.....so beautiful it hurts....o.....o wow ty so much for your poetry music and wisdom holy moly so stupid but jeez louise (cries) do u read these? eep just one word from our hero EEP
Where is that high-pitched, almost falsetto , unique voice Sting had? It is lost, lost forever. Nobody could sing like Sting, now, not even Sting can sing like Sting anymore. Compare this with his solo version on the secret police ball...the magic is gone...people like sting should not get old....is is sad to see a star that shone soooo bright, star fading away........but the memory of his golden years is eternal, that is the solace that remains.......ars longa, vita brevis!!!!.
what are you talking about? he's just singing the song softly... i saw him perform yesterday on a show in my country and he sang like he did back in the old days.
nuttin wrong with random.....as for bad? I was just defending what I believe is worth defending. Thats all. The guitar playin here is class.....Do u Play? u should try replicate this playing if u can and post it on up.....otherwise!
Stings a brilliant composer/musician/singer, most likely if anybody complains about him they are probably really jealous themselves cause i'd like to see them perform with such a high performance skill as him.
He is not. But even if he was, so what? Listen to the song and get some confidence about your own sexuality that you don't have to spend time saying silly things about someone else's. Grow up.
Good to see the great man back in action after what could only be described as a marathon tour with his biggest project. Cheers Sting! and cheers for posting this. P.S . we haven't had enough Police yet, five albums is only the soup and starter.
why does everyone have to hate? i think this is really good and besides sting is famous for bass not guitar so give him a break. just enjoy the music.
okay this song definatly was nOt good! srry sting but i just dont see it! i know i couldnt do better but come'on your a pro and this should be WAAAY better by a long shot!
If Some could not recognise Sting's Voice and his way of singing then its too bad. I am a hard ass Police fan since i was Ten and Outlandos d'Amour came out. A band like the Beatles were way ahead of thier time. Beautiful meaningful, happy music, The canary in a Coal mine, the Voices in my head, the invisiable song, there isnt a bd song that this guy wrote and performed that is not a great fucking song.
wow. I seriously disagree with many of the posters here. That song was done about as well as any one person with a guitar could do it. The fact that its Sting is of no bearing. Its well done, especially the guitar work.
haha if that wasnt sting there people would be talking mad shit. im a sting/police fan and this video just blows. i think hes on mad drugs and messing with his webcam or something. what a joke. just picture some douche doing a sting cover and putting it on youtube and sucking ass. thats what this is.
This is a classic example of three mutli-talented, brilliant guys (Sting, Summers, and Copland ) who as the Police were one of the most amazing trio's I have seen in my life. They really were that good, especially live. on their own, they still have mega talent, but they sound so pale that it really makes you realize what makes a rock - band - great.
yeah and if you don't, you'll prove to the world that you are neither a moron, nor a fat, eleven year old girl trying to find 'magic tips for love' over the internet.

all you people saying stuff like "great attempt" and all those other critical statements have absolutely no credentials. This is sting performing HIS song, so "nice try" has no relevance what soever, because no matter what, he wrote the song.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
great attempt... we all can tell u need a little more time with it but! you have alot more courage to actual try, all the people who talk trash....i want to see u do better
I loved it! But then, I probably love every version of "Message in a Bottle" that Sting ever did - it's such a timeless masterpiece!
