One of the best songs ever written. Elegance, style, jazz, saxophone, lyrics, black and white video. I always ask myself how is it possible to make a song with sophisticated melody like this, when there is a melody inside other melodies and in the end we have a masterpiece.Sting has a total musical taste , his songs are the best, Fields of gold, Seven days, When we dance, It’s probably me, Shape of my heart, They dance alone, Roxanne. And of course there are so much more. We can count and count. I love him, his music stays with me during all my life.

I know exactly what you mean. A lot of the stuff that comes out is processed to death and just rubbish in my ears and/or is more about an artist's image than sound.

@XRunNGun7 жыл бұрын
The fact that it took this long for a label like Frontiers Records to step up and actually bring back some classic rock/pop back to the West proves that the industry is permanently crippled. Music has been homogenized and cheapened to hell and back, and the general consumers have simply lapped it up without any regard for musicianship. It's just a crowd mentality that sadly persists to this very day. Very disheartening.
@GorditoCrunch3437 жыл бұрын
Music now involves tons and tons of marketing, as was discovered in the 80's or maybe even before. Cyndi Lauper had one great PR machine behind her for the time, but she also put out great music. Now, all you need is a great PR machine to succeed which is why shitty rap artists are a dime a dozen. They all make use of the "G.O.A.T." mentality to make themselves known. And the general consensus for music nowadays is that people think it's processed shit, they just don't bother to broaden their horizons and *seek out* music rather than let it fall into their lap. Crowd mentality will never get old, and good musicians must know how to work that crowd to their advantage, just like how punk rock became a lifestyle. And music is evolving, going through a shitty phase. I look forward to music in the future.

The elderly English gent in the video was Quentin Crisp, who suffered a lot of ignorance and was victimized, but never vengeful, only polite. He was an openly gay man, and the author of The Naked Civil Servant, among other books; he was often reviled and persecuted as a young man, and he moved to NYC for his older years. I worked for his literary agent and had the pleasure of meeting him once and talking with him on the phone many times.

This amazing song was written about and for English raconteur, writer and actor Quentin Crisp. Quentin was different from most boys growing up and stayed fiercely himself throughout his life. The lyric "be yourself no matter what they say" is clearly in reference to him. Mr. Crisp is also featured in this video directed by the award winning David Fincher. Quentin is the gray-haired "woman" walking and talking on the streets of New York. The song and video are multi-faceted and well worth a deep dive.

My favorite Sting track among many. Not only is it upbeat, melodic and irresistibly catchy but I also luv that short little break where the rock drums kick in. The sax 🎷 was also really on point and supplied by Jazz great Branford Marsalis. He played with Sting on his first 6 albums and also appeared on countless other albums by artists like CSN, James Taylor and the Grateful Dead. He also played on several tv documentaries and the “Sneakers” movie soundtrack.

About 30 years ago, I used to live in Manhattan (NYC) and it was such a wonderful time. Abraços dos EUA.
One thing I know for sure is that,this masterpiece would never be forgotten, not even after the end of time.
This song never gets old.
That's one of the certainties of this song: it's a timeless masterpiece!!
@@Rita-kk7lq all of his songs are timeless masterpieces...

So true stay a good song.
Ikr? During my visits to NYC in 2019, I actually had this song in my head and thought the same.
The 20" seconds from 1'53" to 2'13" are among that greatest in pop music history. Branford Marselis on the saxophone pushed it all over the top.
80s and 90s New York hit different
"A gentleman will walk but never run" I love this line

Is there like a deeper meaning behind this line?
@@nikotakai8796 idk about deeper but it's basically just saying a gentleman will have enough control of his emotions to walk away from a provocation from an enemy but will never run away from the conflict.

Brilliant combination of jazz and Sting. Always love hearing this song!

I am born in September 1985, I love Sting. Great singer. The saxophone 🎷 stole my heart. Sensational 😊
Still here to listen to great music and appreciate the great lifes that was Quentin Crisp and still is Sting. Anyone else here in 2024?
No, I’m not here. 😂
İ have been listening to this non stop
Yes. When I was young and this song came out I couldn't appreciate the lyrics like now because being born and raised in Germany I had no notion of the underlying message of the song. Loved the music but today I love this song even more for what it represents.
Yes, love this song!
@@bwsmyhero 'tis you, Bob?
One of the best songs ever written. Elegance, style, jazz, saxophone, lyrics, black and white video. I always ask myself how is it possible to make a song with sophisticated melody like this, when there is a melody inside other melodies and in the end we have a masterpiece.Sting has a total musical taste , his songs are the best, Fields of gold, Seven days, When we dance, It’s probably me, Shape of my heart, They dance alone, Roxanne. And of course there are so much more. We can count and count. I love him, his music stays with me during all my life.
Detto
I absolutely agree with you Svetka TV
Sting is an absolute genius but my most favourite of all his songs is "Fragile" - beautiful words to a beautiful melody. I would love one day to write as good a song!
This sounds more like an oboe than a saxophone so it’s an oboe.
@@JonahMobarakcan claim its sounds like an oboe, it's still a saxophone though

The real question is.... "Who's playing the Sax". That guy needs some respect. And thank you for your Responses guys!!

Most definitely, the sound is iconic.
Branford Marsalis gets plenty, no worries- he is a very well respected. If you listen to the rest of this album, you can hear more of him, and how much fun he and Sting had creating songs together (along with some other musical geniuses). There's even a funny beginning to Shadows In The Rain where he says "Wait, wait- what key is it in?"
This song is like wine, its quality is increasing day by day..
This song is just masterpiece. Branford really tops it of for me.
I was just thinking the exact same thing

I wish that pop musicians could bring back this style. Not that we don't like music today but, I can listen to this alot more without getting tired of it.
I know exactly what you mean. A lot of the stuff that comes out is processed to death and just rubbish in my ears and/or is more about an artist's image than sound. Some music is definitely decent but I don't think this type of musicality that was abundant in the charts from the 60s till the 90s will have a resurgence in the foreseeable future...
The fact that it took this long for a label like Frontiers Records to step up and actually bring back some classic rock/pop back to the West proves that the industry is permanently crippled. Music has been homogenized and cheapened to hell and back, and the general consumers have simply lapped it up without any regard for musicianship. It's just a crowd mentality that sadly persists to this very day. Very disheartening.
Music now involves tons and tons of marketing, as was discovered in the 80's or maybe even before. Cyndi Lauper had one great PR machine behind her for the time, but she also put out great music. Now, all you need is a great PR machine to succeed which is why shitty rap artists are a dime a dozen. They all make use of the "G.O.A.T." mentality to make themselves known. And the general consensus for music nowadays is that people think it's processed shit, they just don't bother to broaden their horizons and *seek out* music rather than let it fall into their lap. Crowd mentality will never get old, and good musicians must know how to work that crowd to their advantage, just like how punk rock became a lifestyle. And music is evolving, going through a shitty phase. I look forward to music in the future.
>>>>>>>"Not that we don't like music today..." Speak for yourself ONLY. I stopped listening to music years ago because it stinks.
+SuperCruiser72 You must have such broad horizons if you think that all music is terrible these days. Try looking for music you like instead of complaining about what's marketed to you.
I was in high school when Sting ventured off into this jazzy era by himself! It was delicious! Set them Free…set me free…and then he made so much more.😊

Chris Tucker right ?
kzhead.info/sun/ds2xk8qAoWaChaM/bejne.html
Chris Tucker what about a woman?
The elderly English gent in the video was Quentin Crisp, who suffered a lot of ignorance and was victimized, but never vengeful, only polite. He was an openly gay man, and the author of The Naked Civil Servant, among other books; he was often reviled and persecuted as a young man, and he moved to NYC for his older years. I worked for his literary agent and had the pleasure of meeting him once and talking with him on the phone many times.
How come No One Mentions Quentin Crisp? he's the reason for this song. A True HERO!!🇬🇧👏
"Be yourself "says the master of affectation.
I remember listening to this song when I used to live in Finland. All my friends had it memorized and would ask me what he meant with each line. And all I could think was... "I only remember the chorus" :) but after a year of people asking i had the whole song down. Such a good song.

Nobody gonna talk about the sax & the Blues band. The intro & ending with Branford Marsalis is soul soothing. Couldn't unlisten it.
Nobody realizes who the older man in the video is…Quentin Crisp. He’s the other Englishman in NY. Sting salutes him.
Most Englishmen over the age of 60 know who Quentin Crisp is.
He's the only Englishman in NY - Sting only moved to New York very recently.

mementoxmori16 yes, let's be a immigrant that is looked down upon. Ew, look at that Irish immigrant. Jeez people are idiots
This amazing song was written about and for English raconteur, writer and actor Quentin Crisp. Quentin was different from most boys growing up and stayed fiercely himself throughout his life. The lyric "be yourself no matter what they say" is clearly in reference to him. Mr. Crisp is also featured in this video directed by the award winning David Fincher. Quentin is the gray-haired "woman" walking and talking on the streets of New York. The song and video are multi-faceted and well worth a deep dive.
Great post but unfortunately you are throwing pearls before swine here. *"Who's here in 2024"* & you'll be up to your t*ts in likes! 😕
Also Quentin Crisp, in his last years, learned what was transidentity and said that if he knew earlier, maybe he could have been happy. Which is kind of heartbreaking. (if I red well and if I remember well)
Sting is the definition of pure talent and makes the best masterpieces
One of the finest songs in the history of music... A true gem...

This is perfection. Sting and the Police go with me to so many countries and cities all over the world. If there is one artist I listen to while exploring more than any other…it’s Sting. God bless his very soul.
i come here not only because I love this song, but because I get to see Quentin Crisp, he lived his truth, he asked no permission, begged no forgiveness and owned it all. H e, to me, is the personification of personal value and pride of self .
Nobody has umbrella except Sting. Obviously he is Englishman.

"be yourself no matter what they say" you're right
My favorite Sting track among many. Not only is it upbeat, melodic and irresistibly catchy but I also luv that short little break where the rock drums kick in. The sax 🎷 was also really on point and supplied by Jazz great Branford Marsalis. He played with Sting on his first 6 albums and also appeared on countless other albums by artists like CSN, James Taylor and the Grateful Dead. He also played on several tv documentaries and the “Sneakers” movie soundtrack.

A forever song is one that you remember exactly where and when you heard it for the first time as if Time and Space Stops at that moment.. This is definately one. Thank you Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner for singing, writing, and Composing it.
Does anyone else think that Sting has an almost mystical sound to most of his songs. Something about his voice just sounds so smooth.
Yeah, something otherworldly about his voice, definitely.
Agreed, he deals with deep issues on a large scale, which creates deep sounding music.
Yee-yeah.He's a poet, who also sings, plays a mean Bass guitar.
He's my favorite musician since the 80's.😎
Very true
My parents took me to see Sting in concert at the end of the 80s. I was maybe 8. When he sand this song, the lights, the crowd, the beauty of his voice... Unforgettable.
Wasn't born in the 80s (I know it wasn't the best time), but man it would've been nice to go to a Sting concert around that time. His music's + The Police is just so good
Hello ✋
I was born in 90 and never got to see him live. You're making me jealous.
I've seen Sting on stage only once.. in his production of The Last Ship a musical he wrote, directed and starred in, a few years ago. Very interesting and impressive, but I would love to have seen/heard him in his younger years.
@Stella nice story and well parents, take care of her daughters taste ;)

For some reason I've remembered about this song and started listening every couple of days every week and now I find myself standing in front of lyrics and learning it ,it's just awesome and I've discovered that at the end of 7th verse it says "A gentleman will walk but never run" and the tone is serious and calm that's when I realized you have to sing it literally like a gentle man ,I love this song even more and remembered I used to sing it as a child too .

Çisem Usta, don't feel sorry. My parents listen to shitty music, but I managed to listen to good one like this. Kids these days can pretty much be autodidact, they can find good music to listen all by themselves.
But people teach them shitty music as good music. They don't have too many options to choose in that way. I mean, I saw lots of people who think Lovefool is JB's song, not The Cardigans...
Çisem Usta Bull. There are plenty of options. You have the internet, therefore no excuse not to explore different artists.
I agree with Jurek009. "Love Me" is not JB's song either. It was originally written by Natalie Burke, if I remember correctly and it was used in the sims 2 game. Nobody told me that. I found out all by myself. The conclusion is you don't have to listen to the shitty music people teach you to!
