@PLASTICBRAINWAR r u f ing retarded? the cranberries?!! really?!! you just lost your marbles, you child- the cranberries weren't even itches in their daddies pants when the POLICE where writing real music- fuck completely off and take any one who even looks like you with you
@acbloy police catch me ?baby i say listen guitar riff i can sing the cranberries dream not police copy cranberries ok ! you are police hardcore fans ?
@Kruegerisgod Did I say i was flinging it at the Police? If I didn't like the song i would flat out say it. I was just parodying it. I said nothing about the song being bad.
@HelloImSam25...Let me get this straight. You were flinging poo at the Police while parodying a song that you hate & think is terrible? Was Sting's mouth open?
It's too bad that so many people focus on the douchiness of Sting's post Police persona and his tantric sex master crap and all that. I fear they might be missing the fact that The Police was one of the tightest trios in history. Sting played some great bass lines Copeland was a master of rhythm and timing. Summers was one of the best rhythm guitarists. 3 words tight tight tight. This band was stuck together with super glue. Take note young players! This is how you tighten up a rhythm section.
@skybluemarshall Thank goodness, the voice of reason. When the Police hit the scene at the height of the punk revolution, people with ears were astonished because they could actually play their instruments. Punk up to that point had been a healthy response to the hair-band pretense that had taken over pop music, but then it became pretentious itself when it began to masquerade as talent. The Police scared everybody because not only were they talented, they didn't give a shit either.
@15551cue no. listen to the song, that title fits perfectly with what sting was trying to say. in fact, that title is perfect reflection of the overall body of the lyric.
@15551cue Have you ever really listened to the lyrics? They are only telling us what they hear when all these people in the song speak! They hear nothing. De do do..etc.!
many blessings on you and you house and your home and your family for posting a NON VEVO version that can actually load on my slow connection WITHOUT an ad. FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT BASEBALL BOY :D :D
I find it hard to believe that 341 out of 349 people like this song... the Police were an okay band but this stinker truly ranks among the bottom 2 songs of the 1980s (Toto's "Rosanna" perhaps being worse.)
@bjggjb "Rosanna" is absoulutely phenomenal, sir; as was everything Toto did. Also, the like/dislike bar is not an accurate sample of the general public's opinion of the song. The reason a person would look up this video is that they like it and want to hear it. Of course there's going to be a lot more likes than dislikes.
Awkward lyrics, but awesome job by Andy coming up with the catchy, unique guitar parts, good bass as always by Sting, and Stewart keeping the song going on the drums :) Personally, I could listen to this as instrumental and to me it would still sound great!!
It issuch great music, we were brought up on these sounds in 1970's, 1980's. I was 21 when they had there first major hit, Message in a Bottle, got to no.1 for 3 weeks in 1979. My sister was 20 and my brother 15. If I could go back in time, I would return to this time, it was fab and we had so much fun as youngsters in the 1970's.
Christmas 1980, 30 years ago. no.5 and 8 weeks in chart. Don't stand so close to me, biggest seller of 1980. Police at the top in those years and so glad they are back playing again. Greatest UK Band of 1980's. 5 No.1's. 2 1979, 1 1980, 1 1981, 1 1983, I was aged from late teens to mid 20's then, still got the original vinyl, lp's and singles.
Classic! Forerunners of Grunge! Listen to your elders, dammit! You really think that you are on to something new? Your path is already made for you by those before you. To those that steal rhythm from others (rap) you have nothing than words that sound the same, no heart. No soul. Only your sound. Don't touch this one. You will only do this song discredit!!!!! And make yourself a fool.
they have some great information about what this song really means at SongSense.info, they also have incredible facts about what other popular songs REALLY mean.
si es extraño. Yo me he mirado la letra de la cancion para ver que es lo que dice exactamente, pero esque es inevitable. Cada vez que la escucho sigo escuchando la misma frase, sabiendome la letra xD!
Just proves that they could make a shopping list sound good. This is their best song in my opinion of course. Iknow, if you want my opinion, you'll give it to me. Yeah ha ha
I saw them in an open air concert in 1979 ( I think), didn´t had yet there great breaktrough, but to see them life so close was great and even greater, that they had such a fantastic succes.....MORE fantastic ´80´s music on my channel!!!!
Police war eine der besten Gruppen, die es je gegeben hat. So gut wie jedes Lied war einfach klasse. Schade, daß es diese Gruppe nicht mehr gibt. MUSIK DER EXTRAKLASSE.
