I recognized the drummer in the music video.....He is a successful jazz drummer and excellent studio musician named Omar Hakim.....he's a graduate of LaGuardia High School Of Music & Art in New York (Class of '77)....I know tihs because that's my alma mater (Class of '78).....Much love to M&A.....Some of the best talent came from that school from Classical to Jazz to R&B to Rock and Hip Hop!
It's too bad that this mix wasn't picked for the album. It's much smoother than the LP mix and William Orbit's mix. On the bright side, it was released digitally as a B-side of Sting's "Englishman in New York" single.
There is a Mistake in the Credits of this excellent Remix: It Was made by John "Jellybean" Benitez, who in the early's and mid 80's was Very Prolific DJ,producer, mixer,and made Great Remixes for Fleetwood Mac-Little Lies;P.McCartney & M.Jackson-Say,Say,Say;H.Lewis &The News-The Power Of Love;Madonna (Borderline,Material Girl,Like A Virgin,Holiday,etc),Michael Sembello-Maniac,etc,and known for be Madonna's boyfriend at that time.Please correct this Info and read better the Disc Packed next time
+Arnon Osherov It's on the BEN LIEBRAND's version of "Englishman in New York" 12" and CDsingle... this is a Jellybean's remix included as a bonus track... ;-)
Great music, but it's the first song I hear where the chorus is less well than the verses. There is a break when the chorus starts with "If You Love Somebody"...
I have a ripped copy from my 12" vinyl, but its too scratchy from the crates in the 80s - anyone have this version that is able to be converted to MP3?? ....even RED tube is blocking Sting conversion
Man........your guys mind was nasty.........the music doesn't go with the words........what a horrible LIFE!! You guys needed help from a good song producer or the truth!! Doubt it if he Sting did both! Just heard if you love somebody set them free........And yes there is one by Bruno Mars that is pretty tasteLess words are really disgusting depiction of a man loving a woman.........
Still listening to this great song/remix in 2022.❤️❤️✊🏿✊🏾✊🏼
My favorite John "Jellybean" Benitez remix.
Still stands up till this day.
Good job John.
Lavoro immortale ❤
Quintessential 💯🇺🇸🌹🌎🌍🌏

Essa tocava muito no ano que eu havia entrado na marinha 1986/1987.
Great mix and great mixer (Liebrand)
Sorry, but Jellybean Benitez is the one who did the original remix and of course Sting did not approve... despite its massive success.
I like it =)

White Label Promo..I have it..now out-of print, definately on of the best to come down the remix pike
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
The A Side of this 12" was a Ben Liebrand remix, which is what my credit refers to in identifying the release; it does not refer to the B sid.
アップ ありがとう！
I believe Branford Marsalis played on this jam.....SUPERB!!!!!
Le top !!!!!
Sweet 👌
Don't you mean the fourth minute, the one from 03:00 to 04:00? The percussions that start around 03:30 (during the fourth minute) are amazing :)
I love the part at 4:32
theres too much to live for than to die
A vida agora vai ser diferente...
Some of the lyrics in this song are used in another song that goes "We'll be together again"
...Welcome in Zagreb, This Summer!
STING... STING... STING.......... YES... YES... YES .................................................... NELCAS
Esta version supra a la original lejos temaso de sting aprienten un sentido y retrocedan atras y se van a imaginar que estan el boliche
great Jellybean
it's jellybean's remix, not ben liebrand's
Arnon Osherov You should read the description a bit more carefully ...
+Arnon Osherov It's on the BEN LIEBRAND's version of "Englishman in New York" 12" and CDsingle... this is a Jellybean's remix included as a bonus track... ;-)
Jellybean remix was what it was called in my day. -- "The day."
Who are the woman in the background
Too bad this version is out of print!
pas la meilleure version la top version et dans son nouvel album song qui sort bientôt a écouter vous m en dirais des nouvelles à plus
Great music, but it's the first song I hear where the chorus is less well than the verses. There is a break when the chorus starts with "If You Love Somebody"...
@hattiemaeboy you remember that shit!! larry use to slam this record
hey son
Jelly bean benitez..
Capo....
I have a ripped copy from my 12" vinyl, but its too scratchy from the crates in the 80s - anyone have this version that is able to be converted to MP3?? ....even RED tube is blocking Sting conversion
*****
And Jellybean's best most phenomenal remix...and yet, ungrateful Englishman Sting did not approve. That says a lot about the singer.
Fake News!!!
oh he did, Maxi-Single by A&M
This remix took the song to a higher level.
dont like this mix. prefrs t original
so it is
Man........your guys mind was nasty.........the music doesn't go with the words........what a horrible LIFE!! You guys needed help from a good song producer or the truth!!

Wh.. what?

2:21 onwards is fun
