They definitely were my 80s band - still have all my LPs and saw them at least 3 times and Sting afterwards several times too - The Beds Too Big Without You- Invisible Sun - Message in a Bottle- Walking on the Moon
@@normandavidtidiman9918 Yes, late '70s. But, they really blew up during internationally during the early-mid '80s. You don't remember the '80s? The Police were one of the biggest new wave bands during that time. All over the radio and MTV. And many big songs came from the albums during the '80s as well, before Sting went on to have a solo career.
Early 1980's hit. It was on the radio a lot, and I would sing along on the way to college classes every day! We were so delighted for this new band that appeared on the scene with their new wave/punk/reggae/rock/jazz influenced band. Just an awesome time in music. Thank you for your video.
I went through their whole discog a few months back and there were so many times I could have sworn I was listening to 80s-era Rush. This song has quite a few of those moments
That’s because both bands are drummer centric. Copeland produced most of the sound as did Peart. Both sounds are driven by the drum. It is not in the back keeping time. In both bands, 3 genius musicians melded into something bigger than the parts.
Copeland really is an amazing percussionist. He never gets listed in a top five list, but he belongs there. He valued technique over volume, and it made all the difference.
He’s in many many top 5’s. When it comes to musical drummers he could be #1. My list is: 1. Buddy 2. Elvin Jones 3. Keith Moon 4. Tony Allen 5. Stewart 6. Bill Ward 7. Ed Blackwell 8. Clyde Stubblefield 9. Ginger Baker 10. Janet Weiss 11. Dave Grohl
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee Orchestral players don't write their own music or play in bands. They have to do what they're told or have no career in music. There's no need to glib.
Totally agree he’s my favorite drummer. His creative use of reggae inspired drum grooves combined with Sting’s pop sense of melody made them really unique in the rock genre
Thanks for that new wave livestream the other night! The Police were a fun new wave, post-punk band during the '70s and '80s. Lots of good videos and songs from the Police. They were reggae-rock. Dance-rock. Large variety of mainstream appeal for The Police. A lot of songs back then from The Police were not only mainstream rock stations at times, but also on pop and urban/R&B stations, due to the reggae/ska fusions/influences. Catchy and danceable. The Fixx, Men at Work, Payolas, The English Beat were the same as the Police.
I just heard the lyric, when their eloquence escapes you. I used to think it was, and when the elephants escape zoo! I used to listen to this stuff on cheap cassette recordings off AM radio.
Try King of Pain……the lyrics are very thought provoking…i loved the police 3 very talented guys who created so many good songs and sounded amazing for a 3 piece band
The "fast" guitar part that Lex was asking about are called "pull-offs." It's when you pick the string once with your strumming hans and then use you fingers on the neck to pick the rest of the notes (instead of using the right hand to pick again). It basically makes a cool fluid sound. It's pretty rough at first, but an overall basic technique when you play for a bit.
Poor Stewart, one of the greatest drummers in the history of music, was always stuck with no instrument to play in so many of their on-set performance videos. And Stewart was always a ball of pent-up energy just looking for something, anything, he could drum on.
Check out Klark Kent, the album he put out in 1980, where he got to funnel all that energy by playing all the instruments. It remains one of my favourite albums even now, 42 years later. Plus the few songs he managed to get added to the Police catalogue like Bombs Away, Does Everyone Stare, On Any Other Day, and Fallout with Henri Padovani (the original Police guitarist before Andy came on board).
@@norton750commando I agree with KK - I'd like to also to add his soundtrack to Rumblefish. Check it out if you haven't (Our Mother is Alive is a great track).
Andy Summers incredibly underrated guitarist. Very minimalistic approach to most of his Police songs but fit perfectly. He could cover rock, jazz, big band.
They had many great hits in the 80s don’t stand so Close to me. So lonely. Message in a bottle every Little thing she does is Magic Walking on the Moon Roxanne. A great band that sadly broke up eventually but Sting went on to have a successful solo career
Thanx for this one. Nothing like Polices mix of rock and reggae. Every little thing, walking on the moon, Roxanne, murder by number, don’t stand so close to me. All are awesome
Picture this ,senior in high-school, gets in my car after football practice 1984 hit the power button on radio, this comes on ,afterwards I said what the? ,who the? hell is that ? It was very cutting edge in sound at the time and many others tried to reach that same vibe these guys had going. That little solo thingy at the end was killer in my stereo cruising . It took me many times for me to key in on the meaning, it truly was such a unique style .
I love this song, it sounds so happy and upbeat but it carries a serious message which is not to let the white noise of people's opinions and rhetoric get to you and drive you crazy! You have to block it out and find your zen space sometimes. 💖💖
I know this song by heart because when I flew back from Germany in 1981 it was an 8-hour flight and they had this in rotation on the headphones along with maybe six other songs. Kind of drove me crazy LOL
The Police were the first real rock concert I attended at MSG in NY when I was 12… me and a friend went with his older brother and his friend. We were sitting way up in the balconies, and got slightly high off the second-hand pot smoke. It was right after this song came out.
Saw The Police in 1980 at Madison Square Garden after this album came out... was a pretty good show. Thought I was having an out-of-the-body experience during Walking on the Moon.. LOL!
My favorite part of these reactions is when I see Brad studying everything - then he pauses to hear Lex's comments and Brad gets fired up by something Lex says. It's great.
"De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da", what does it mean Brad? 😆🤣 The Police were one of the great of the 80s although they came up at the end of the 70s. Very unique, great musicians with a lot of hits.

YEAHHHHHHH I'm very Fan of POLICE from 1979 it's very good musical vibration 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Thank you Brad & Lex
Love this song. Next up Synchronicity is the fifth and final studio album by English rock band the Police, released on 17 June 1983 by A&M Records. The band's most successful ... De Do Do Do De Da Da Da, lmfao.
Hard to explain just how massive these guys were around this time period. Biggest band on the planet and they ended up walking away from it all due to internal friction.
They were SO big that for their 1983 show at the Montreal Olympic Stadium, in front of more than 76 000 people, they had five opening acts, each of which was among the world's biggest bands in their own right. To be clear: this was not a music festival. It was The Police with five opening acts, including The Pretenders, Talking Heads, Stevie Ray Vaughn and I forget who the other two were, but they were equally big. Just not as big as the headliners.
@@OronOfMontreal We had the Police Picnic here in Toronto in 1981. The Police headlining for the show but it was an all day music fest. Nash the Slash, Payolas, Oingo Boingo, Killing Joke, Iggy Pop, the Go-Go’s and the Specials all played that day. A friend of mine saw the Police on their first tour of North America at the Horseshoe Tavern in 1978, and about 30 people showed up.
Just started HS in 1980. I was just then really trying to get into new music. Some dude in my science class who - every day wore a different Stray Cats shirt - told me I should check this song out. I couldn't count on radio to just play it, so I dug into my paperboy money (yes I was a deliverer) and hit the nearby Sam Goody to purchase Zenyatta Mondatta. I nearly wore the tape out (yes, we used cassettes back them as they were obviously the future of music). The whole album was fun and The Police will always be ranked Top-3 in my favorite 3-person bands of all time along with ELP & Rush.
This was prime material, & The Police nearing their peak back in the early 80s. The percussion by Stewart Copeland, guitar work Andy Summer & the bass, singing & songwriting by Sting combined into something as near to perfect as you could get. Sure the title might be dumb, but read & actually listen to the lyrics. Genius songwriting in its simplicity. In their too short career, they just get better from here.
This was recorded in the same studio that some of those Rush songs like Tom Sawyer & Limelight that you guys saw, up in Le Studio just north of Montreal. Thats why theyre frollicking around in the snow !
Lived in a rooming house the summer Zenyatta Mondatta came out. One of the guys had this album and it became a major part of the "soundtrack" of many memories.
Sting looks SO young. This really put them on the musical map. Snow and Reggae? really? (another 'cool' band that did not take themselves too seriously) No wonder Sting and Phil Collins were friends.
Sting went backstage after a Crowded House show just when they were breaking big with "Don't Dream It's Over". He walked into the dressing room, saw Neil Finn and said "Hey now! Hey now!". Finn turned around, saw it was Sting and said "De do do do, de da da da".
This was one of Lex's favorites from the new wave stream. Can't blame her, great fun group. They were like early ska-punk 🎸. Everyone loved The Police. Songs played at school dances too. The Police were so unique. Reggae, ska, rock, punk/New wave all mixed up. They have a bunch of other songs you guys should check out.
The year is 2006, I just got home from basic training, bought my first manual transmission car….I got a crash course in the parking lot and plugged in my iPod. Played this song on repeat with the windows down
When the Police began to really hit their stride. I was lucky enough to see this show at MSG with my sister. The album was "Kenyatta Mendatta". Does that make sense either??? Just great music Drummer, Stewart Copeland is the heartbeat of the band.

Outlandos D'amour
my favorite song by them. guitar solo is so good
Yes, I prefer their earlier work. I'd add Can't Stand Losing You as well.
SO LONELY is one of their all time best!
Outlandos d’ Amour is so awesome! Probably my favorite album from them.
To (not-quite but almost) quote Alan Partridge: this is The Police’s gibberish classic.

That's a great track. 👍
I would suggest you watch Andy and Alex reaction to that song. Fk'n great!
Absolutely 💯!!!
Sting had just become a new father. The chorus was what he used to sing to his baby.
If you havent already, Invisible sun is a great dark song by these, its about the troubles in northern ireland in the 70s and 80s

They definitely were my 80s band - still have all my LPs and saw them at least 3 times and Sting afterwards several times too - The Beds Too Big Without You- Invisible Sun - Message in a Bottle- Walking on the Moon

Andy’s guitar playing was great on this.
"Can't stand losing you" is one of my faves of theirs

I was lucky enough to see this show at MSG with my sister. The album was "Kenyatta Mendatta". Does that make sense either??? Just great music
Drummer, Stewart Copeland is the heartbeat of the band.
