Now that's how I done it with my daughters. I don't have to threaten any boy because all I gotta do is look at them and they get the message.

    everyone gets attached to someone at some point and sometimes things end suddenly and you weren't prepared for it to end. Sometimes people exhibit "creepy" behavior like that because they wanted more out of the relationship. Eventually you get over it and realize that you aren't going to be with this person anymore and move on. I think this song acknowledges that

    This is one of the most misinterpreted songs ever. It is about an obsessive stalker, but it sounds like a love song. Some people even used it as their wedding song. The Police frontman Sting wrote it after separating from his first wife, Frances Tomelty.
    In a 1983 interview with the New Musical Express, Sting explained: "I think it's a nasty little song, really rather evil. It's about jealousy and surveillance and ownership." Regarding the common misinterpretation of the song, he added: "I think the ambiguity is intrinsic in the song however you treat it because the words are so sadistic. On one level, it's a nice long song with the classic relative minor chords, and underneath there's this distasteful character talking about watching every move. I enjoy that ambiguity. I watched Andy Gibb singing it with some girl on TV a couple of weeks ago, very loving, and totally misinterpreting it. (Laughter) I could still hear the words, which aren't about love at all. I pissed myself laughing."

      MsHanna Heartattack if thats how you want to look at it. I'd like to think its about someone who watches said person falling in and out of relationships on a daily basis, never even realising that the one that longed to be with said person has actually been in front of them this whole time. Basically a friend who has always been there for you, but lets you go about life their own way. Its just me, but I think that just has a deeper meaning to it than simply being about stalking someone, which quite frankly is disgusting.

    I always knew the meaning of this song- and I decided to listen to it again after having a long heart to heart with my best friend. I think we know things sometimes right away as children- and when I was little this song was about betrayal- and it rings so true tonight with the knowledge my mom is cheating on my step-dad, who was the dad who raised me and the one who protected me from being institutionalized and was with my mom for 30 years. This song speaks to my best friend who fell in love and cared for his partner only to suffer continual abuse and later false charges of rape. It speaks even to me- suffering my mother's possessiveness of not allowing me to have any bonds and at the same time herself being flaky. "Every Vow you break, every smile you fake, every claim you stake-" no, this is not a song about stalking what you desire and can't have- this is a song of being betrayed- and of being so deeply betrayed that you watch for it everywhere- you record every breath, step, and word as possible signs of a new betrayal. And the chords underneath is the longing to love and be loved- the deep sorrow- but how can you love when you cannot trust?

      There are so many songs that have the same vibe as this song, just look for them

    "Oh, can't you see-" The obsessed fangirl muttered as she right-click saved another picture of her idol onto her computer. She had half a thousand already but there could never be enough. "You belong to me." Sighing wistfully, she closed her laptop and stared at the poster on her wall imaging the day they'd meet and her idol would recognize her as The One.

    The irony to this song being by "The Police" and titled "Every breath you take" with the recent inhumane act towards Eric Garner. He was choked and his last words were "I can't breath." Justice will be served if not by our government than by life. No hate towards anyone just want liberty and justice for all.

    I've heard a lot of people call this a "stalker song", including a member of my family, and the only thing I can say to that is that those who say that either clearly aren't really paying attention to the song, or prefer to ignore the song's own lyrics in order to believe the darker interpretation. In the song, the lyrics clearly state, "every vow you break", among other things. To me, this is clearly and obviously a song about a very dedicated and loving husband and the pain he is feeling because of his cheating wife. He is watching her to see what she is doing because he knows she is lying to him.

      I'm with you on that one. I only listened to this song because it's beautiful and I think it's a wonderful love song. I played this for my friend once and he liked it (: I'm way more of a disco fan than this trash people are singing today. All the songs are so dirty and I like clean, gentle songs like a soft guitar :)

    • @LunalisDream
      @LunalisDream 7 років тому +32

      Actually, Sting himself has said that it is a darker and more cynical song. He wrote during his divorce and the lyrics reflect his feelings of possessiveness and jealousy towards his wife.

    • @soro911
      @soro911 7 років тому +4

      I remember have seen in a documentary about The Police that one of the band members said that the song although, very romantic and rainbows, it was based on a voyeuristic guy watching the girl he was in love with (classic stalker behavior btw ). You don't have to put on camouflage and get into a bush at night with binoculars to stalk someone.
