[SmklookinGlass]

[MrAdanwindowsxp]

ROOOOOSS CAAAAN

[TakaOnaa]

@MrAdanwindowsxp you're an idiot ! Roxanne !

[rosariotequieroe]

[GisJazZ18]

musicgasms... goood



[rockt77]

<3

[Trower22]

Il a fait cette chanson le jour des attentats du World Trade Center! C'est vraiment jazzy comme ambiance!

[cleanbeats2011]

nothing gets white people a-clappin' like a surprise swing beat in the middle of a tune!

[gwioska]

W piętach to czuję!

[Music7590]

remi gaillard

[bubbless1337]

I prefer this one more then the original......! amazing song!

[MIGUELCUBABANDD]

que hermosa cancion is beatifule

[willianmh]

What he says on final? 'everyone deserves to be happy' or something...

[OhFishyFish]

Am I gay if I love him?

[MrLuisott]

@OhFishyFish maybe just a little... but who cares???

[Thetommyst3]

9/11 is my best day

becous iam born on it :P

[k3nnytm]

sorry if you dont like it, but to me this fusion of genres (jazz being its most notorioues) is to me one of the best ways to show true talent, and original performing of a classic song

[MegaDeman23]

I think it sounds better than the original..

[windex1234]

@lisahunny27 Things get better. :)

[trouzercoff]

Just my opinion,but the live in Berlin 'Roxanne' is the best of the lot! this is still great though :)

[stephennathan]

brilliant song, brilliant singer, but i definetly prefer the original

[AnterosBrights77]

Brilliant. But he don´t sing the best part

[chavyman1000]

thepolice is way better sting sucks singing this song

[Almanac67]

@chavyman1000 Not sure if serious or just stupid

[chavyman1000]

@Almanac67 serious lisne to the police then this ther is no comparison police hands down

[Loonerty]

@chavyman1000 You do realise Sting was IN The Police, right?

[schumieshah]

OMG! m out of words for the beauty of this song. Thanks

[lemisanthrope]

the same day that the towers

[Magdaa64]

So Good !

[chefrank]

Wow!

[doktoruppsala]

Sting is a genius! every part of this song (and all the other songs in this concert) are arranged and performed flawlessly. He is one of the muscians in this world who deserves to live forever.

[sydneyjaneblues]

my favourite male voice

[eqsmooth]

I saw him do this solo in 1985 at U.C.'s Greek Theatre. How he can still reinvent it for all these decades is unfathomable.

[bassplayer8718]

Is that Christian Mc.Bride?

[joanaesteves94]

8 .|.

Sting is amazing !!!!

[TheAuditory]

wow still trying to compute Dom with short hair...this gig was prophetic as to it's timing..Sir Gordon added a verbal empathy for the day's earlier events..not to mention holding the release for some time....in all honesty this gig would have been more fun than a barrel full of monkeys...

[Imdrakull]

i love this song, is the song of jessi

[mrpicky510]

Total talent, Sting is an amazing man

[5v3corman]

This is realy nice ;) where can i download this concert?

[Rollsroyster4508]

never get tired of this master piece

[TechnooFreak]

Not appropriate for 9.11.

They're still jammin' like crazy, though.

[TechnooFreak]

Not appropriate for 9.11.

Jammin' like crazy tho.

[TechnooFreak]

Not appropriate for 9.11.

[Footballzeal]

sting can still sing so powerful , a real singer and musician anyway

[ciroslive]

The reactions of those involved completely undo the intent of the 9/11 attackers. What a feeling of failure they feel when they see videos like this :)

[thejazzyjuls]

an incredibly jazzy version !! I adore it!

[xZchS]

on 9/11 :(

[joehalenbeck]

do you have somebody DVD from this performance ??? Toscana 2001 pls

[TheOtherKaneda]

@joehalenbeck Yeah, the entire concert (and a lot of footage leading up to it, including a nice single acoustic guitar version of Shape of My Heart, as far as I recall - haven't seen it for years) - can be found on the DVD "All This Time".

[joehalenbeck]

@TheOtherKaneda thanx a lot !! I have DVD Inside including his coments and its perfect...

[hypetrot]

@TheOtherKaneda ...sorry if this is a dumb q: was this in his bk yd?

[TheOtherKaneda]

@hypetrot - front or back yard. Something like that, yeah. :-)

[crodariful]

@TheOtherKaneda I don't really care if it's back, front or lateral yard... he's great!!!!

[GBGIORGI]

@joehalenbeck Toscana is the land of nature, history of art and best wine ever!

[joehalenbeck]

@GBGIORGI I know Toscana :-) and , personally I love wine from France and Czech Republic :-)

[GBGIORGI]

@joehalenbeck  have you been in toscana? i have never tryed czech wine or french wine... anyway i think the most beutiful city is Siena. it's built through hills

[MrTolstoievski]

@joehalenbeck The DVD is called All This Time

[SickoFromHell]

8 people break with Roxanne

[dubmoth]

so wonderful to see something like this- two master bassists at the height of their powers deploying all the goodies on relatively simple music... and their sounds! why cant victor wooten pull a sound like the tones from this concert?

[rolimao89]

isso e mt bommm!!

[nurikara]

McBride kills it in this concert.

[GBGIORGI]

@nurikara  yeah..and what a low frequences with electric bass and double!

[GerardoMalagonMaciel]

Manu Fucking Katche in the Drums...amazing

[GerardoMalagonMaciel]

Manu Fucking Katche in the Drums...

[RobDZeppelin]

[alereyna2002]

wtf por dios que gran cancion great songs, great man

[LordSia13]

Call me heathen, but I first heard this song watching Moulin Rouge (best part of the entire movie), and ever since the best version has always been that sung by the Narcoleptic Argentinian.

[EdoTrb]

is the double bass player Cristian McBride??

[RenaudAudenaerde]

@EdoTrb sure is, played with him for 2 years I think..

[mogul1265]

That tour on THAT day was Stings worst and saddest days! 9,11 Bless ye m8

[trespatines99]

[AardvarkFoto]

A great revision of a great song.

The date of the recording makes it even more poignant.

[Mariahaslam]

[JohnnyDeppigX]

one of my favourites songs and this one is a very unique performance

[BigRussOvBs9]

Bass Line Is Big Fat Tune

[marcollons1]

[duvopa]

[lordantes]

Wow, what an amazing voice, what a beautiful song sang by an incredible artist... Thanks for posting...

[shadowassasin228]

I think the date is pretty ironic for a beautiful song like this.

[UdderMarmalade]

I agree, it seems that Sting's voice has gotten better with ager because its softer and raspier at the same time.

[bithume14]

Sting voice has got better since he's got older!

[annamagari]

elegante e meravigliosa....Anna

[r0ckz4na]

[mjacobson04]

actually, you're wrong. check out the very beginning of this concert, and you'll hear sting talk about the incidents of 9/11 and how it influenced their performance.
