Sting - If I Ever Lose My Faith In You (Official Music Video) 

Who's listening to this song in 2024? ❤

When I was a kid, I peeled the label off of a bottle of Sprite I was drinking, because it has a contest that you could win a free cd if you had the winning label. I actually ended up winning and this album was one of the possible prizes you can request. I chose the album because I really liked this song. After all these years, still do.

This is NOT a song, is a Masterpiece .

Thirty years later, music fans still have faith in Sting!

1993 this song is a masterpiece 2021 this song is a masterpiece

"You could say I lost my belief in our politicians. They all seem like game show hosts to me." I always liked that lyric.

The chord progression on the chorus and the epic vocal delivery still send shivers down my spine 30 years later.

This song was my college ode to myself, it kept me motivated when all I wanted to do was give up. It got me through undergrad and grad school...I'm now 11 years into my career as a pediatric physical therapist. Thank you, Sting! ❤

This song saved my life in 1993 during a difficult childbirth. At the last minute (when I felt like giving up), this song randomly came into my mind with images from this video. I still get chills when I listen to the song or watch the video, 28 years later. Thank you, Sting, for the incredible music. God Bless!

this song is from another dimension

This is 2023 and this song is thirty years old! Unbelievable. A timeless classic

This summer, my parents and I took a trip to Arizona. My dad played this in our rental car while we were driving through the highway in Sedona surrounded by the reddish mountains. Seeing the size of them up close as the noon sun was shining bright with big, white clouds in a rich, blue sky when the chorus peaked...man, that was a moment right there.

“If I ever lose my faith in you, there’d be nothing left for me to do…” Goosebumps.

27 years after this song was released and it's still beautiful and I love listening.

About 30 years old and this song is still beautiful . A really pleasure to listen

LYRICS (YEAR 1993): You could say I lost my faith in science and progress You could say I lost my belief in the holy Church You could say I lost my sense of direction You could say all of this and worse, but If I ever lose my faith in you There'd be nothing left for me to do Some would say I was a lost man in a lost world You could say I lost my faith in the people on TV You could say I'd lost my belief in our politicians They all seemed like game show hosts to me If I ever lose my faith in you There'd be nothing left for me to do I could be lost inside their lies without a trace But every time I close my eyes I see your face I never saw no miracle of science That didn't go from a blessing to a curse I never saw no military solution That didn't always end up as something worse, but Let me say this first If I ever lose my faith in you There'd be nothing left for me to do

Sting is one of the most talented musicians of the last 50 years. He was good in The Police but he reached his potential just as Sting.

Without Sting the music world is nothing 😘

Who is listening to this in 2023. What a beautiful song whenever I feel darkness in my life and fighting demons this song lift me back up

"The song is in two distinct parts. The first part is about the things I've lost faith in. It's quite easy to be precise about the things I've lost faith in - politics, media, science, technology, the things that everybody has, and yet I along with most other people have a great deal of hope, and a feeling that things will and can get better. So what do we place our faith in I can't define that as easily as I can define what I don't believe in anymore. So I haven't defined it, I've just said if I ever lose my faith in you, and "You" could be my producer, it could be faith in God, it could be faith in myself, or it could be faith in romantic love. It could be all of those things, I don't define it. I think it's important not to define it, because once you can define something it evaporates. I think it's important in this day and age when we are dictated to by music television what a particular song is about, that the old ambiguity that songs had can be retained." Sting was a schoolteacher for three years. During this time, he played in bands nights and weekends. His real name is Gordon Sumner. Concurring anecdotes have it that he got his stage name from a yellow-and-black-striped sweater he wore while playing jazz gigs during his early days in Cramlington, England, which made him look like a bumble bee. One bandleader started calling him "Sting" and it stuck. Sting has six children: two with his first wife, Frances Tomelty, four with his next wife, Trudie Styler.

Another shockingly underrated song from 90's

always loved the chord changes in this song, sting really is a master songwriter

Thirty years later and this song still stands the test of time. A classic.

I sometimes play this song 🎧 to motivate myself because the only person I could count on was just me. Even family can let you down. But not music. This song and a few others were my anthems to keep going through school, through infantry school, Iraq/Afghanistan, divorce, thoughts of ending it all, and even through raising my son alone. It’s a very endearing song for me. It holds its value and meaning decades later.

The chord progression is so unique and ingenious. A song from my childhood; it's so much fun transcribing it to rediscover its greatness.

A couple of months ago, I use to like only The Police's songs, and I hadn't given to myself the chance of listening to Sting's ones as a solo artist. However, in a sunny Sunday afternoon, l listen to this song on the radio while driving, and it caught me since the first seconds. The mix of the arrangements and the lyrics was so beautiful that even made me cry. Then, I began listening to Sting's solo songs, and I recently had the chance to see him playing on live in my own country, Mexico 😆. Sting hadn't come to Mexico in several years, so I was present in a unique venue. I'm amazed to get caught by Sting's solo songs just before he came back to Mexico. I think it's not simple coincidence.

Sting has written a lot of great songs during his solo career but for me, as a 40+ year long fan of both Sting and The Police, 'If I Ever Lose My Faith In You.' is his signature song. I'm no expert on music but it surely has to be one of the best Pop songs ever written - with an absolutely killer bridge that ignites my senses every time I hear it. It also has an epic sound that can fool you into thinking that it was recorded with a full orchestra!

Songs of the 90s are ageless, it can still surpass the songs of the new generations.❤

Ugh I just LOVE this era of music, the early 90's. You could hear a bit of the 80's but still hear and see distinct sound of the 90's. And this message is so genuine.

This song hits different with all the craziness thats happening in the world.

This,,,,, Humanity's most critical loss---faith in our Saviour

Been in love with this song since 93. Never gets old. The changing of the chord is absolutely spectacular. And now on with the countdown.

IF YOU'RE HERE AFTER ALL THESE YEARS, YOU'VE GOT GREAT CHOICE FOR MUSIC.❤🔥👍💯

Sting is one of the coolest artists in my generation 80s and 90s how can you not understand what music like this means to your soul and life that's memories.

This song will stand the test of time. They don’t make them like this anymore.

Will never get tired of this song ❤

On mornings before kindergarten I would change into my uniform in front of the TV in my mom's bedroom. She always had VH1 on and I swear I saw this video every morning for a year straight. Nostalgia.

"....But every time I close my eyes, I see your face "

Awesome song to listen to with a young 20something year old woman with a bottle of Merlot Red wine and pizza! I am 60 now and beginning to enjoy life, as it feels this song is about what I just said! As well as more songs by genesis "Phil Collins" and smooth jazz fit in romantic mood!

This song has the unique ability to be enjoyed no matter what kind of mood you're in

God I love this song to death. When I first heard it in 93 I went absolutely bonkers. There's something about Sting and his style of singing combine that with the beat and you got a recipe for a master piece.

despite whatever folks think of Sting, the guy had a knack for writing great pop tunes, and unfortunately that torch has not been passed down.

A hell of a songwriter, capo.

Believe he's talking about the savior, the son of David. The first and the last. The Alpha and the Omega . Sweet amazing messiah Jesus Christ 🙏

He's got such a great voice. This song and Fields of Gold are my two favorite Sting songs.

The glorious 90s! Wish I could go back and just stay in that decade

I was born in 92' and this was the 1st MTV music video I remember seeing. This takes me back almost further than I can remember. This is probably the first song I really remember hearing.

These lyrics are amazing. Sting was brilliant here. For me, this speaks of faith in God. If I ever lost my faith in God there would be nothing left for me to do. I literally could not go on, and that is the truth. These lyrics have captured my truth.

One of Sting's best songs from the early 90s.

Hard to believe this masterpiece never went to #1 on either the Pop (Top 40) or Adult Contemporary charts. March-April 1993. Best it ever did was #5 on both charts. If it were released today (2021), I don't think it would get any radio airplay at all. That's how much music has changed in 28 years.

This was one of those songs that was the impetus to make me go back to college for the 2nd time taking Graphic Arts. One of the best times in my life. February 1993!

I’m 41 is it normal that I should like this song?

Here to listen to this before the Disturbed cover comes out.

I remember seeing this music video when I was a kid with my father and he told me that he wouldn't ever lose his faith in me. It didn't mean much at the time but its something I think about often now. I always liked this song.

The relevance is too much. A genius in his craft

Who's here after Wendy and Manny slayed the hell out of this song on The Voice!?!?

This is my favorite song by him. Sting rocks!

So who else restarted this vid over and over and over while multi-tasking on the computer....

God will bring you through all your hardships and disappointments All you need is Faith in God others don't matter just God for we must return to him. He is the only one who truly loves you

I was eleven when this album came out. This single is still easily one of the most recognizable songs ever. I can hear any snippet for just a second and I'm immediately transmitted to 6th grade all over again.

Finally I found this awesome SONG! I'm so Happy!

After this summer - and everything that happened to our marriage because of lack of communication between us, I dedicate this song to my lovely wife. IF I EVER LOSE MY FAITH IN YOU!!!

I heard this in CVS the other night. I thought the song was perfect for a late night cvs shopping visit. Nothing like hearing sting belt out high notes while strolling through the oral anesthetic isle 10 minutes before the store closes

I was in the Navy serving in Iceland when this came.. I was young and alone and far from home..this song came to mean a lot to me during that time

W 1993 kiedy Mtv to było prawdziwe Mtv ,ten utwór był brylantem wśród diamentów, wspomnienia...muzyka wiecznie młoda

Disturbed CANNOT match this magnificent masterpiece. (And I love disturbed)

God is pleased by this song.

This song is unique, the chord progression gives me goosebumps

I think these poetic lyrics describe how trust is the most is the most important thing in a relationship and if that's gone, the relationship is over. I especially love the line "every time I close my eyes I see your face" as it describes how you feel someone you love in "inside" your soul. Musically it's too. It's a magical song.

Con artistas como Sting nunca perderé la fé en la música. La letra de esta cancion es una auténtica maravilla del realismo social. Se puede perder la fé en muchas cosas pero en lo auténtico nunca.

Not to lose your Faith in Yourself..is to be Truly in the God Source. This song says that to me..after experiences of those trying to take away my sense of self. A very important song, thank you Sting❤

When music was still made by people who could play and sing for real....

This is food for my soul, a piece of my heart. Thank you Sting 💖💕

I've listened to this song more than anything else out there. It instantly calms me.

If I ever lost my faith In JESUS CHRIST, I don't know what else I would do?

Thank you Sting. This is my song for my Mother, whose health is declining. There is no more pure love than that of a child for her Mother. Your songs are rich in lyrics and love. I thank you for your almost endless beautiful lyrics.

I always loved the song but I especially loved (and still love) the imagery in the music video. There’s just something about it that makes me feel like I’ve been brought back to a time when everything has a mix of faith, magic and wonder.

This song will always choke me up 🥺

I love this song and played it every day during dark years. It kept me alive. I found happiness through after the dark years. Thank you Sting.

This song represent so much, of ENGLISH values, honour, CHRISTIANITY✝️🙏, Knights, rebellion, everything, it's what i experience of this message of a song. Be proud of being ENGLISH🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

You could say I lost my faith in science and progress You could say I lost my belief in the holy church You could say I lost my sense of direction You could say all of this and worse but If I ever lose my faith in you There'd be nothing left for me to do Some would say I was a lost man in a lost world You could say I lost my faith in the people on TV You could say I lost my belief in our politicians They all seemed like game show hosts to me If I ever lose my faith in you There'd be nothing left for me to do I could be lost inside their lies Without a trace But everytime I close my eyes I see your face Never saw no miracle of science That didn't go from a blessing to a curse Never saw…

He effectively predicted game show host being president of USA.

Dad's favorite Sting song - he used to play it all through the 90s with me in the backseat! RIP Dad...

God can Never let you down Ever but your children and spouse and family always do

A musical genius.

loved the 90s music

FAITH IN GOD 🙏🙏🙏🙏

I’m listening to this in 2028! Who’s with me?!

STlING,I will NEVER lose my faith in you and your great songs!!!!

Quite possibly the best mixed and engineered song EVER. Never fails to give me goosebumps...

the video is a masterpiece

Sting is one of a kind no doubt. You hear that voice and no question you know it's Sting. Only the truly great ones become recognizable like that.

I love this song, it reminds me of my childhood.

Jesus my Savior King, my Love if I lose my faith in you there is nothing left to do.

oh WOW!! What an absolutely INCREDIBLE song this is by Sting! This song has just TOTALLY blown me away now......... 😢

Still love the song and picturization.....when the song was released I was a young man....now I am 50....really nice memories...

This video is steeped in the esoteric symbolism and archetypes of the tarot. If you know, you know. Not only a phenomenal piece of songwriting and composition, it is multi-layered with the resonance of the video imagery. Absolute legend. ❤️

One of the great videos of the MTV / VH1 era ..... Sting is unique and altogether different in his musical style ... and is as Great today as Ever ...

The time...1993, palmrya Syria, on a pipeline job, back at the hotel, havin a beer, heard it. Gonna be #1 definite. ❤️❤️

Hadn't seen this video in decades. Man they played the crap out of it in the 90s. Still looks good
