The Police RENEWED - Tea in the Sahara (FYYC's Extended Remix & Special Video)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2023
- In this remix version, almost 4 times longer than the original, I have given a lot of space to Andy's beautiful guitar playing, which wasn't present on the 1983 studio recording. Since (almost) all the instruments are played by Sting, Stewart and Andy, you could say it's a version The Police could have recorded, but never did. Unfortunately in my opinion. But I'm more curious to know what you think of it. So please let me know.
I tried to match the video with the atmosphere and content of the song. I've spent quite a bit of time in desert areas myself, so the song always had a special meaning to me. Although the original wasn't a favorite one. But this remake, in the same slower tempo that Andy and Sting favored after The Police (quote: "we always played it too fast in The Police"), made me love it more than ever before. Especially the guitar gives it a complete new feel.
I know by now that Sting sometimes watches my remixes. So come on Sting, appreciate the time and effort put into making this, and comment in a few words. All police nutters around the globe will appreciate it.
In the end all this is for a greater cause. So If our protagonist(s) do listen to this: come on guys, and especially mister Sting of course, the years are starting to count seriously, so surprise the world, break the myth about The Police as a closed legend, visit your old friends, and do what lots worldwide don't expect, but are really waiting for: reshuffle a few of each other’s recent songs, give each other some space, and ready it is: THAT DAMN SIXTH POLICE ALBUM!
And yes, this audio remix version and video collage are copyrighted, so don't be a copycat. Enjoy!
Sooner or later one of them will knock on your door and they will want to talk to you. The sixth album could see the light thanks to you. Congrats again my friend!
Love this!!! ❤❤❤
Well done.
Gosh, this is out of this world! Another beer from me in Madrid to you! I would buy a CD with your work, know you that!!
Extraordinary music vid, congratulations 🥂🥳🥁🎶👍 thanks 4 this share 😝
Wow man, this is just fantastic!! It’s the kind of stuff that you always dreamed of to find on a 12” remix single at the time, but never got.
What strikes me in many of your remixes is the importance of Andy Summers - an orchestra of sound! Not that I wasn’t aware of it before, but it gets really obvious.
Keep up the great work, it’s really amazing stuff. You make them come alive again - much butter than a reunion!
🙏🙏🙏🙏👊👊👊👊🥳🕺🎤🥁🎸🚓
Thanks for your nice words! 🙏 Yes, I think you can look at it in 2 ways: his guitar contributions on some of the original versions were sometimes so poor (e.g. 'Shadows', 'Tea') that they could be improved :-) But at the same time, he is the one who enhanced his own contributions afterwards (especially in live performances) more than the other two. On the other hand they are sometimes so magical that they ask for beïng emphasized. And of course, the guitar is also a less supporting instrument than drums or bass line, which are more vital for continuing a song structure, so many times Andy is the chosen one to fix or alter 😉
absolutely enjoyable
super comme d'habitude
❤

Un chef-d'œuvre sublimé par ce remix.
Beautiful - listening to it with my headphones in a dark room and just drifting back to my childhood.
Thx David!

✈️ Grazie mille, Potyez! 🙏
I wish I had this version back in 1984. Maybe it was worth the wait.
👍🙏🙏🙏 (...I also think I should have made it waaaaaaay earlier! 😉)
slow it down.. and it suddenly goes into a pink floyd, type of space

that bass line, man. I love every track in which you highlight bassline )) "The bed's too big without you" was #1 until today

🫡.... ⬆️ ☁️🌥☁️☁️ 😇
incredible work FYYC... Love it... Thanks
Exactly what i love
Wow!! Happened upon this beautiful extended rendition of one of my favorite Police songs. Love it man...well done!! I actually thought the same too about how nice it would have been if they had slowed it down just a wee bit on the original. This is perfect....thanks for this wonderful creation you made!!
🙏👋
You have done another fantastic remix. The start was just amazing. All of it. Ty 💛💙❤️
- Solo Con A - excelente performance. Congratulations!!
Magnificent!!!
Awesome 👍
Great, even when it’s a bit slower
Tea in the Sahara or coffee why not? It is relaxing! Many thanks.😉
Decaffeinated though, you don't want to get dehydrated in the desert!
Would definitely love that 6th album
Beautiful atmosphere, I love it. Thanks!
FYYC, are you calling 'moi' a Police Nutter ? (quoted from above) - OK fair enough !
I can just imagine if I'd been full hardy enough to attempt nutting a Police Officer, then being lead off to the cells, whilst trying to proclaim my innocence & having a helmet / cap badge shaped bruise emblazoned on my forehead ; but seriously this track transported me back to late summer '83 & the feel of that era, even the cologne I was using at the time. As always an excellent group performance. Thank you for this beautiful expanded derangement, at times Andy's playing is almost elusive if one is not paying attention, but as per each member's contribution - essential ! Thank you again !
Thanks Andrew, nice words! 🙏
Danke für das Video ❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂ich träume ❤❤😂😂😂😂😂und fliege ❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂❤❤😂Danke

Have you ever thought about making an album/playlist of all your remixes that people can download for playback? I’d buy

Please excuse my ignorance, but where (or how) on earth did you gain access to these additional guitar tracks from Andy? I've only heard something similar from him on live performances of the song.
Hi Albrecht, I know his performances, bits and pieces are around, but the sound quality (or music quality) is not always very good. With a lot of careful post-production, chopping, sculpting, restructuring, rearranging, and some necessary painting, something beautiful and new can eventually grow out of it. Unfortunately, Andy never performed his later renditions with The Police. I tried to fix that with this. 😀 Enjoy!
@@fyyc Wow! That just shows how painstaking and punctilious your work is. Thank you very much for it, and for this information.
very nice but I don't get why slowing down the bpm
This remake is in the same slower tempo that Andy and Sting favored after The Police. Sting quote: "we always played it too fast in The Police". I think they are right...
Never a fan of this song , t
You've changed that
Same for me, Paul! I do like it now... 😉
