  • Did the Police ever perform this song live? I can't find a live version on youtube.

  • they did play it live, but rarely...there was some live audio of it up a while ago, but im not sure if it's taken down now.

  • Oh my GOD!!! This is favourite police song ever - and I had heard a rare extended 12" version of it years ago which I have never been able to find but this is WICKED!!!! Thanks a HUGE lot!!!! And for the Don't You Believe me demo - WICKED!!!!

  • Well they better put the 12" version on the alleged new box set! Any further word on that thing?

  • The real magic of The Police is in the demo tapes, the b-sides, the non-hits songs on the albums and the live performances - besides, of course, the regular hits that everyone knows.

    I can't describe that thing that Andy, Stewart and Gordon create besides sheer magic.

  • Yeah, I love this song. The album version is better. I love the order of Omegaman, Secret Journey, and Darkness. Andy sounds great with all the texture landscapes.

  • A thirty year old home made demo. Still sounds amazing and tons better than all the crap that passes for music nowadays. Oh the days of new Police albums like Ghost In The Machine... love love love that album... bought it the day it came out... and that iconic cover with the digital images of the three members of the band... the album, the whole thing was pure genuis.

  • You can hear them singing much clearer. However they were smarter to speed it up the way they had and make it tight.

  • The optimum would have been this demo version with drums from Copeland on the album. I think that the demo version is better then the actual album version. It has a much better groove etc.

  • Come ON THE POLICE, Give us JUST another Song! A NEW One! Please!

    -All of Yours, Brilliant! Thumbs UP!

  • :D quiero la campera de Sting (que tenia que ver no? xD)

  • @gordonS2 Same is true with Beatles, et. al.

  • The Police are so amazing that even their demos sound awesome!

  • This picture is the Police in New Zealand 1983. They are receiving a powhiri(maori welcome)
