    COUSE IM GOING TO STING'S CONCERT IN JUNE 14 IN LITHUANIA!!!

    YOOO I <3 U

  • The song is about Quentin Crisp. A gay Englishman who was living in New York, when it wasn't easy to be gay. I expect a lot of the lyrics are quotes. The clever thing is making a song from them.

  • Yeahhhhh Vinnie on drums!

  • je suis un afwicaaaaaain à pawiiiiiiis

  • Hey youtube, watchout for Stefan B Wir tanzen, Slut maschine, Sex at the party (piss off) Born to be so porn and dirty trancing. Also look at Love baloon, I am best of Oktoberfest and Pa-Party. All really good songs listen to them.

    Have fun and use headphones.

  • I love the bass at 0:56

  • @19gastonazo70 Glastonbury, England

  • @19gastonazo70 Glastonbury

  • This tune always grabbed my attention due to its vibe and purity in conception.

  • if, you like this song you will sure like this one, too

    just add /watch?v=KJ6BqKf5SMo after the .com

  • I am sincerely preoccupied for the 16 people who disliked the video...

  • 2.50 war auch bei papa roach konzert

  • At what age did Sting first perform in a band?

  • a gentleman will walk but never run.........

  • butch thomas IN SAXOPHONE

  • I love this song :)

  • fantastico, ho trovato i biglietti su listicket lo andrò a sentire live a roma. grande sting!

  • The stupid fuck at 2:50 just ruined this for me. It's Stings song, he's the legend here - that fucker just wanted a piece. Other than that awesome performance

  • oooohoo Hertha BSC und der Karlsruher SC eine Freundschaft die nie vergeht....<3

  • 2:42 jazz ..........2:51 3:00 rap ??????

  • the guy who is rapping and playing the soprano saxophone is not Branford Marsalis. Its butch thomas I currently take lessons from the guy.

  • SUPER MUSIC, SUPER VIDEO !!!

  • Worst. Rap. Ever.

    But it's sting, so I guess I forgive him.

  • @quathar uhh....vanilla ice in the running? he got my vote.

  • Beatiful, thanks a haundred times for this masterpiece!

  • yo this keeps getting better!!!

  • I love how timeless Sting's music is. And its great how he blends his music with so many different genres (reggae, jazz, etc). 58 years old and still one bad mofo.

  • I'll see Vinnie soon. In a masterclass :-)

  • linda miusic ¡¡ despues te explicooooo¡¡¡¡

  • the rapping soprano player is butch thomas

  • he has a similar tone to Branford Marsalis, so that's my guess.

  • He was my Teacher at collage, such a legend..

  • @saxophonicmusician Not to start an argument, but I'm 100% sure the soprano player is Branford Marsalis

  • @undapar1 I just looked at the video and that's definately not Marsalis. I was wrong!

  • @undapar1 branford was never that fat.(as in overweight) and he's about 6 inches taller too.

  • yank mug rememba were originated from

  • truly beautiful music!

  • Who's the rapping sop player ?

  • my best guess would be branford Marsalis

  • I'm an English Cunt In New York

  • nice

  • yeah, a cool song :)

  • Exelente muy bueno siempre es mejor en vivo

  • y mas con la voz de sting un grande

    2:12 to 2:31..

    ..Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety

    You could end up as the only one

    Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
