  • Hell Yeah !!! \m/ \m/

  • I'm not a fan of machine head, but this cover is awsome!!

  • Id have to say its better than the original. but thats my opinion. I send sos to you.

  • im not a huge fan of this band, but their covers kick a lot of ass.

  • Very good cover

    

  • still prefer the original

    well done cover though

  • Isn't 'Militaires San Frontieres' from Metal Gear Solid?

  • @Donnelly182 Yeap.

  • message in FULL BOTTLE.

  • this is much better than the original because this is much more likely for a person to feel like if stranded on an island, and not that cheery jumpy police version xD that being said, all you people thinking "cover can never be better" are wrong...

  • Its a very very nice Song ! ! ! the original is bullshit xD

  • @MrSpartanerli Don't say that man... The Police are a great band

  • Comment removed

  • I dont like cover, but thats a good one I think!

  • WOOT It;s a logo from MGS Peace Walker O.o

  • 15 who dislikes this videos is justin bieber's fans.

  • Malaysians can cover this song too, and win national music awards for it, Malaysia boleh! /watch?v=NCcFnuZvBsg

  • Don't prefer it, but I like it :)

  • this is exactly how all covers should be

  • I love machine head covers... can't wait for their Witch Hunt cover.

  • That picture is from Metal Gear Peace Walker ,an excellent game  =D

  • im sure machine head are awesome, maybe one of the best i dont know, within the metal genre, but how can this be better than the original? The police were extremly innovitive, they were one of the first to fuse rock and reggae in the way they did. machine head are just another heavy metal band, and who have covered a police song by introducing lots of fast drums, distortion and making it heavy. Better than the original my arse.

  • @chillbreeder93 You are grandly on some bullshit..

  • @chillbreeder93 well, machine head are extremly innovative, too, one of the first bands combining hard parts with soft and clear singing. well, i like the original version pretty much too, but i like this one more. you can't say the original is better than this, as well as i can't say this is better than the original. it's just a matter of taste. some like the police more, some this.

  • @TheMovieClassics I'm not getting in on the whol "Police vs. Machine Head" discussion, but. You're saying that Machine Head were one of the first bands to combine soft vocals, with heavy parts? The band was formed in 1992, which is two years after Cowboys from Hell, and ten years after Ride the Lightning, and another 20 years after the Doom Metal pioneers.

  • @sinbysin666 Did you just compare Pantera and Metallica with Machine Head? Dude, the vocals of these bands are completely different to Rob oO

  • @TheMovieClassics I was responding to someone who said that Machine Head were one of the first bands to combine soft vocals with harsh vocals.

  • I kinda like this one better than the original, and i think Machine Head has gone alot further in the Metal genre than the Police in their own genre

  • @2shae1980 fuck off

  • @biderz5 because?

  • Theres not many covers where i think the new one is as good as the original (unless the original is a bob dylan track) but GOD DAM this has got to be close to being better than the original. The drumming in this is AMAZING!!!!

  • good cover, but I've got waaaaay too much love for the original

  • They did a pretty good job with a song I already love. The first minute is the best part

  • @ampsup211 agreed. I think that they should have ignored the distortion and had screaming over cleanish trppy guitar!

  • Great Song...give a damn where it came from yeah,if you do not like it,get the fuck out,if ya like it Props to you,but if not,be negative somewhere else yeah???

  • Oh yes indeed!!!!!

  • I love this cover, i wouldn't say it's BETTER but you can say that it is one of the best song covers of all.

  • @AnRTPgA I prefer this to the original!

  • I actually like this cover alot. I like it a lot better than their cover of "Hollowed By Thy Name".

  • I still have it in my ears...much better then original

  • TUNE !!!!!!!

    

  • Just watched this video because of the picture

  • imo original is better. It is my opinion.

  • better than original.

  • Its a very very fucking nice SONG !

  • Veeeeeeery goood, ever!!!

    

  • Message in Rob Flynn's bottle after Kerry King put a grenade in his sorry ass gut.

    Machine Head's ok, but Rob needs a lobotomy.

  • @surgeonofdemise sry i might sound like an idiot but what is a lobotomy again?

  • @lynchthetrolls34 a lobotomy is a surgical procedure where the connection between the two parts of the brain is cut. google woul be helpful

  • @AllahImperator

    There are many more than two parts to the human brain. A lobotomy is a procedure which severs the nerve fibres that connect the thalamus to the section of the brain that is to be lobotomised - usually this is the pre-frontal lobes or the frontal lobes. This procedure is only very rarely used now, for extreme instances of mental illness.

  • @psychozo thx but i know that there are many more parts to the brain than two. i meant the two hemispheres. i didnt want to make it as basic as possible, but thx for being a smartie ;D

  • @lynchthetrolls34

    A lobotomy is a procedure which severs the nerve fibres that connect the thalamus to another section of the brain - usually the frontal or pre- frontal lobes. This procedure is only very rarely used now, for extreme instances of mental illness. The results are varied and difficult to predict, but the usual aim is to calm severely violence and such in mentally ill patients.

  • @lynchthetrolls34 And you do not sound at all like an idiot. I don't know which parts of car engine are what, but that does not make me an idiot. It is merely a symptom of the fact that I have learned nothing of car engines :)

  • Can anyone tell me what tuning/key this is in? Doing something similar for a music assesment for school.

  • really helped me out in the winter great song

  • crazy cover, a brilliant tribute to an amazing song!

  • i love the part when hes like " I'LL SEND A S.O.S. TO THE WORLD!"

  • sigh  /slap

  • @Bazgann fail troll

  • @Bazgann You fail at life, stop trolling little boy...

  • @chvy3 Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

  • @skinup1231 Yes but they don't have to publish it..

  • @Bazgann if u think this is fail then why would you listen to it? u just want people to talk to you because you have no friends

  • The best machine head song

  • @DiploRadio lol. You think a cover is there best song? This song is not even what they're about. Must not be a Machine head fan, LOL.

  • @toadman842 i dont think this is one of their best songs. It's pretty average considering the amount of brutally brilliant shit MH have released.

  • @skinup1231 Dude you do know this is a cover right? it's actually a really good interpretation of the original (by The Police)

  • @skinup1231 Dude you do know this is a cover right? it's actually a really good interpretation of the original (by The Police)

  • Sounds like Trent Reznor from NIn

  • BEST COVER EVER!!!

  • i dig this cover. nice interpretation. here's another one that is cool. how frank sinatra would sing it. search manteca in a bottle

    they do a little nod to gilligan's island that is fun.

  • fuck sting

  • Not a big Machine Head fan but this cover is fantastic!

  • Probably the best song of the Burning Red album....

  • @12456123 No way!

  • It's even better than the original one!

  • KILLER COVER!!!!!!

  • Watch a better cover by Duke or 30 seconds to march much better!

  • @luc00leh If you want the best cover try the one by Graveworm

  • THANKS

  • steelers

    

  • Msf, from Mgs Peace Walker! huhu \o/

    Nice music =)

  • Well, it's better than some of the other ones I've heard. They lasted 1:30 before screwing themselves over...

  • the combination of 2 epic components

    gotta love machine head AND the police :'D

  • my god this is pure awesomness

  • Don't care for the video, but love the song so much i had to add it...

  • is devil with the king's card on here?

  • have they ever played this live?

  • jajaja ta buena esta bersion XD la lleba

  • Took a lot of balls to cover this song.. so props to Machine Head for pulling it off.. this album was hated on pretty heavily and I think it's pretty dope that they rebounded so well with Through The Ashes of Empires.

    like if you agree!

  • MILITARIES SAN FRONTIERS!! (an Army Without Borders)

  • @Gray86Fox First person to notice that

  • @davi55x Or at least to type it out. I don't type down everything i see on a screen.

  • @davi55x any person who loves mgs is alright with me (LONG LIVE BIG BOSS!!!)

  • @Gray86Fox u beeen playin to much mgs peacewalker dude.

  • Comment removed

  • @Gray86Fox the proper translation is Soldiers Without Borders, but the Metal Gear reference is awesome

  • @Gray86Fox

    "Militaires sans frontieres", to be closer to the proper orthography. ;)

    Though, I didn't hear it, even after 16n years of listening the wonderful music of Machine Head. :)

  • amazing!

  • 420 thumbs up. We think the same.

  • thank you so much for posting! This has been one of my favorites for years but I didn't which band covered it. I lost my player and this song... now it's back!

  • 2 people got hit by a bottle in the head! xDD

  • Fuck the police! This kicks it's ass over and over!

  • I never truly realized how much I actually like The Police until I'd heard Machinehead cover this and Mudvayne cover King of Pain

  • my father and I are big fans of police

  • OMG. That's so good. I never heard that EXCELLENT cover. \m/ HAIL

  • ♥_____♥

  • SHIT MAN !!!! would leave my girlfriend for listen 1000 times this version

  • Machine head and Metal Gear Solid rule :D

  • Nice cover.

  • This is one of those songs where I love the original and the cover just as much each other. The original is more more melancholy and wistful, but this one carries more frustration and desperation. They each say such unique and vibrant things with this song.

  • Makes a sad song feel a little more like a cry of frustration..... good song

  • machinehead dont really get this song. john mayer did.

  • @Myung13 john mayer is a fag!

  • I only just found out about this!
