Cool lyrics, artisitc genius synchro-moves and grooves and also are nice to look at. The Police are simply so incredibly amazing they still boggle fresh minds.
Sting and Elvis Costello traded barbs in the press back then. Sting might be poking fun at Elvis' look in the video. Obviously they made up, becuz Elvis opened for the Police in 2008, had the privilege of seeing them 3 times on the reunion tour.

My Comment was SARCASTICALY geared to people who think STING can't SING, as a matter of fact, HE CAN! STING who came out of the late 70's-80's BRITISH INVASION, was one of the only guy's who didn't try to sound like DAVID BOWIE, who set a trend for a distinctive voice, but was mimicked by EVERYONE! STING was/is UNIQUE, he is "HIMSELF!" And, oh by the way, BOB DYLAN sings quite well on LAY LADY LAY!
This song represents teen angst and frustration. It's one of their best for sure and it has that anthemic 'I can'tstand losing' feel. This is one of the bsongs that really got me into the Police when I was about 14 and now they are one of my fav bands since they got back together and released the ultimate self titled Police album. Awesome!
The Bass lines hunt me in particular. The bridge one expecially, when it goes from Fmaj to Gmin: it pierces my head and never goes away. I saw them in turin by the way, and they were awesome to say the less. I shouthed and screamed all the songs and I was so excited and my brain was so on endorphines that I remember oly a few bits of the show. I was gone mad...
lol i cheked them performing their song in 2007 and they cudnt remember the word is was quite funny but its a good song that i had answer some questions from in a test i had at school from music.
They are very good. Stewart Copeland is one of my fav's. I seriously dig his beats!!! Trippy, precise and so damn groovy it is unreal...go Stewart!!!!!!
wow, i thought the drum part was hard, i didn't notice that it was steppers that stu was doing and not one drop. funny how small things like that makes it a whole lot easier to play.
yep-for real, check out terribleTim-watch the one called Rat Fest-totally pure, stripped-down buzzsaw punk- he has a lot of good stuff,he puts some crazy names on some of his vids, but meander through them,he's got some real good stuff-Represent
Music has always been influence and attempt to copy A major reason there are so many jazz types- someone copies a genre wrong and a new sound is born. R&B American born but it was Europe that was starved for the sound and couldn't get enough of the influence- hence the "Brittish invasion". It is said the one who came closest to the R&B sound was 17 yr old Steve Winwood when he wrote GIMME SOME LOVIN. He would come back again at 40 with a S. American sound.
