Finally something happens that should have happened decades ago. Reggae is the strongest influence on The Police and Sting's music, but this is the first time I see him singing a Bob Marley song. A record with great reggae hits by various artists, in Sting's version, would be amazing.
@ 71years old, Sting looks so fit, and he still got the voice he always has, and what an epic musician....still got the records of them, from the beginning ;-)
I knew "The Police" were going to be a big hit, when I first heard them. Little did I know my kids would also dig Sting, but they saw his concert last night in Arkansas; I got videos of them there.....blown away!
Heard the band and this for the first time at about 3 a.m. after closing shift at a restaurant - exhausted, a little beer buzzed, and then from the radio, into the darkened room - it sounded like magic. Still does...
Sting's ability to create never ending melodies even in old songs is incredible! A real tunesmith. What an amazing performance!!! Saw him live in Kuwait a few years ago; stunning performance!
Girls would faint watching the Beatles. I am a man 10 feet from sting on a solo of Roxanne in Houston in 1986. I hit the floor! His voice was unreal in person!
The brilliance of thing is, he put so much energy into writing fresh stuff right the first time, he’s got the most chill retirement of ever, playing stuff you wrote 30-40 years ago, with maybe since the police disbanded a dozen songs that he’s actually written apart from the police I’ve taken off,And his solo career, that strength stinge is probably the most prolific songwriter of the 20th century, hands-down.
Oui c'est vrai.. Je suis un fan inconditionnel de police et pour moi sting est le plus grand de tout les temps mais un petit so lonely, Roxanne ou bring on the night sauce police de temps en temps ça ferait pas de mal 😛🎸🇨🇵
@@arnaudyayoi1143 Merci, mais si le gars derrière Sting est Dominic Miller (connais pas), je ne pense pas que ce soit lui le fautif puisqu'il fait des broderies à la guitare. Or, autant que je puisse en juger (je n'ai pas une oreille merveilleuse), le "pain" est harmonique : un accord pourri (un demi-ton en dessous ou au-dessus) à la guitare rythmique ou au clavier (s'il y en a ! Chuis même pas foutu de le dire :-/). Quoi qu'il en soit, c'est bien étonnant... à ce niveau-là ! Le mec a dû se faire remonter les bretelles après le concert, j'imagine...
