John Butler Trio - The Police Cover - Session Acoustique OÜI FM 

People are complaining about this not being perfect. wow. The boys are clearly having a ton of fun, what could be more perfect than that? I genuinely love the fact they are laughing through it.

when you are recording but the weed hits you hard af😂

It might not be perfect but it's real music and it's the imperfections that add character. Music is about having fun and that is what these guys are doing. Chart music with auto tune and studio enhancements is not real music. This is real music with real people and real instruments.

it's so funny to watch you, John Butler, laughing I love so much 😁 Your cover is amazing !!! 😍

Sounding great. The legacy of Stewart, Sting and Andy lives on forever!

Love this! Love the energy! Nothing tooo crazy. love this music forrealll.

Watch this all the time, never gets old!

they are so baked.

When your baked and fart mid set, best cover ever.

Even stoned out of their minds, these guys make more powerful music than 99% of the pop musicians in my experience.

so in love with this

Greatest band ever!!! Hope see jbt soon in Ottawa

Best cover I ever heard of this song. A fantastic interpretation. More please :-)

que genios son estos 3

I can't..... I just can't... 😍😍😍🤗 I will use it on my channel playlist!

One word ---AMAZING

Amazing version. Cool, Mr. Butler!

wow, amazing cover...

This is my second favorite version of this song and my #1 cover! love it!

Excellente cette tite version JBT!

EXCELENTE!!!

Damn, that's real music

awesome cover

Cool, he plays the turn around of chords different from the original song! And I think he smiles for this fact during the song. If you can play the famous original guitar arpeggio intro, you can see that the chord progression is wrong! 0:58 the bass tries to guide John to find the right chord progression. John takes his time, singing the chorus "message in a bottle" and tries to remember the right chords sequence, but he fails again! :-D For this reason they laugh out loud ... and continue playing the wrong chords until the end of the song! :-D Funny and the result is still cool! ;-)

JUST PLAY AND HAVE FUN THANK YOU

это божественно!!!

excellent !!!

super bon..!!!!

God's gift to the people

Brilliant

looks like it was the first time they played it to me

Awesome☆ Cool　JBT!!!

enorme.....

I love you!

Cool cover

Nice cover

I think they laugh because John just farted in the middle of the song. That adds some spice to de chords hahahahahahaa! Fantastic, this is what music is made for. Just to have fun. We don't even know or imagine what happens in the middle of a live show, this is just another anecdote for them.

Fun backstory- I was with the station at this time and in the studio for this particular recording. Basically John farted and they couldn’t stop laughing.

Anais ! :D

Prosim pridte na Slovensko na *Pohodu aôebo inde ale milujem Vas

I would love hearing this without the laughing. They do this cover so well and sounds amazing. Hard to be down when listening to this,lol kinda like oh well, im alone but that's ok cause theres all these other girls who are alone too hehe ;)

VERY FUCKING COOL

fajny kawałek zagrany na luzie ....

Oh putain orgasme musical..

Whats the time signature for the fart

since this is a depressing song, I'm glad he ripped one in the studio, way more entertaining.

I so badly want to know what they were laughing at.

can anyone shed light on their cause to break into laughter mid performance.did someone screw up or was it a recognition of entering the "zone" musically. im intrigued by it .

I'll be 40 in a. Few days

wow what is the bass he is using ?

I can't find any tabs for guitar! :'(

sid,,, I think johns' vocals were slightly out timing wise, the song doesn't connect at the start but does when he shuts his eyes, all done on the "offbeat" class tho !!

would help if he'd learnt the words

what tuning?

did someone fart haha

I thought they where high asf

Good but better done as the original trio

ça c'est transformé en bordel MDRRRR

their cover of this exact song from 10 yrs ago is 1m X's better. It's like they actually cared about the emotion they put into it unlike this version.

Big smelly fart, in the studio :-D

les rires c ***

I'd say it's dorm-jam at its finest, but I've heard far finer.

The magic of the old trio just isn't here. Sorry

I can see you boys have talent but this effort, sloppy when compared to the original, very sloppy....like you're drunk or something.

John farted :D

Wow who fucked with audio? compressed and limited. No dynamics.

Isn't he singing off key? Sounds terrible

Sounds terrible, i'm sorry
