SOS

a dr CRISTINA MARIA NOGUEIRA DA COSTA SANTOS APÓS O JANTAR SENTIU SE MAL

This was my introduction to Sting and the police a million years ago. Still have the vinyl, the best version

Pretty good for a bass-plàyer...

You've been Stung! Woke up this morning with this song in my head.

“Seems I’m not alone in being alone..”

That's just a ridiculous voice. Goodness me, the man was gifted, no doubt

"Love can mend your life, but move can break your heart." Has there ever been a more profound & true lyric sung in a song before or after?

three geniuses with huge egos decided to form a band in the late 70's. this was the result. The Police are one of the top ten rock bands of all time. If not top 5.

Omg! It is a Tango piece!

Song is so appropriate for a sketch/ song concert that benefits Amnesty International, the organization calling for the release of political prisoners being unlawfully and cruelly locked up by autocratic regimes globally. SOS indeed.

So beautiful ❤

Sooooooooo friggin great

I don't remember him performing solo in '81

Best version ever

O Mais Versátil Músico, a mais linda e doce voz 🙏🕊❤️‍🔥 Adorável e encantador 🙌♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Sting sometimes is the british bob dylan

So Beautiful, I love this song, the most wonderful voice!

Sting was totally at the height of his powers on this night. Did he ever do a better live version of this song ? I doubt it. He has so much energy, reaching that incredibly high range and nailing every note. And he couples his amazing vocal with that understated guitar playing those sublime chords. Amazing.

If anyone can show me a better live version of this song I'd love to hear it. What a vocal performance. I love the chords he uses here too. Sting is an absolute phenomenon. As with the performance of Message In A Bottle at this event, the sound mix is so good. The limiters on the desk must have been pushed right up. Brilliant.

Genius

I've always loved this version of the song best, stripped down, soul bared, it is so much more poignant this way

Most incredible voice. The guitar sounds like crap.

a solo version that brings out the song's cheeky pathos.

1 of the most BADASS performances of all time!

I saw and heard this video on MTV in the Student Commons at UW-Waukesha (Wisconsin) during April of 1984. Didn't hear the full Police recording until two years later. Nevertheless, this is Sting's greatest song. And the original record was the Police's finest.

A music god of the highest order. HIs voice is ecstasy. I'm been listening to this version for decades! Spectacular performance and RED HOT ending!! 🥵🥵🥵♨♨♨

dang what happend to this beautiful irreplacable work of art.

Jesus he made bank

Now this beautiful Soul is 71. I've only seen them perform once but thrilling ! The idea is so intelligent : the irony of everyone being a castaway and needing connection and his gorgeous song will always bring tears to my eyes. I think he knew his Shelley and Wordsworth. The only sexy guy I ever knew who was straight ! He is so humble here : he knows what works , Now Stuart looks beautiful and he too kows his worth but is so humble . 2 Great English gentleman !

My second favourite rendition of this song. My favourite is when he came to town and got up to the mic and his guitar had issues. He said F* it! And started singing acapella and the 16k in attendance started singing with him. It was fantastic.

“Seems I’m not alone in being in being alone” dammm

I became a Sting fan one night at 3AM when MTV played this video. It was around 1984. Then saw a similar version on Bring on the Night.

Cuando tenía sólo 13 años escuché por primera vez esta versión junto con Message in a bottle (1983). Fue en los especiales de media noche en radio Concierto de Chile (94.1). Lo habían promocionado durante el día así que grabé en cassette todo el especial. Aún lo tengo guardado y años después volví a escucharlo remasterizado. No hay versión que la iguale; quedó plasmada en mis oidos hasta el fin de los tiempos.

This is when the world realized how absolutely talented sting was / is !

1 man 1 guitar 1 message.

Quite possibly his finest performance of all time

Drury Lane theatre Secret policemans ball

I was there for this performance, live in London in 1981, only a few hundred of us there. The video, as great as it is, does not do it justice. I do not recall the guitar at all. Maybe it was there, but I think it was just acoustic for us in the audience. All I recall is his voice. Most incredible performance I ever witnessed.

The best version of this song

why were the first few seconds where he sings "Roxanne" deleted? and honestly instead we get this pointless little VCR thing in the beginning

👏👏💛 Mi humilde cover bass ua-cam.com/video/fyFdIzeBWIM/v-deo.html

Hauntingly beautiful. As amazing as The Police songs are, a lot of them work great as acoustic versions too

I was three live blew my mind

Jesus Christ can rescue you from despairO.

2023... Still

Está versión de roxanne y message son las mejores que escuche de sting
