Don’t Stand So Close to Me Cover (The Police)—COVID-19 / Coronavirus Version Parody
Our parody cover of a popular song by The Police, with content pertaining to the recent COVID-19 outbreak.
Let me preface it by saying this is, by no means, intended to be dismissive of the severity of our current challenges. I understand that the COVID-19 outbreak has affected lives all over the world, including my own (and I'm not speaking of the Great Toilet Paper Shortage of 2020)!
We are all worried, all probably a little scared, all a little aggravated...and many have experienced great loss. Everyone shares opinions about it...how some are taking it too seriously...others, not seriously enough...and many judgments are made, based on these opinions. I've learned in life that, behind most anger and judgment, is fear.
Honestly, my opinion about it is, "I don't know"...and that's okay with me. I can only take it one day at a time, like I learned to do during other tragic times in my life. I think we are all just trying to do the best we can (except maybe for the one who keeps taking all the toilet paper!)
Two of my coping mechanisms have always been music and comedy. I think most musicians turn to their craft in times of uncertainty, even if they haven't played or sang in years. I'm seeing many of my musician friends on here doing just that, and it's a beautiful thing! (If you get a chance to support some of our local musicians on here, please do. The full-time ones are getting hit pretty hard, and I know others are too.)
Anyway, The Police song, "Don't Stand So Close to Me", got stuck in my head early on, when social distancing was just starting to be thrown around as a means to stop the spread, and "flatten the curve". I had to scratch the "ear worm" itch, and change the lyrics to be relevant to the current situation. My very talented husband picked up the guitar, and within a half-hour, this ridiculousness was born! This is a parody cover we wrote, of the song. It is a compilation of things I've been seeing floating around on here, expressions made by the general public... not necessarily my personal opinion. It is meant to be comic relief in the midst of our uncertainty. It is for entertainment purposes only...and again, not intended to be insensitive to anyone.
On a serious note, I am praying for the good physical and mental health, economic security, and strength of everyone I know personally, and all over the world. I hope that this uncertain time brings us closer together and makes us stronger as a country, and as the human race. Help a stranger. Share with others any way you can. Don't be a jerk! Don't hoard the toilet paper, for Pete's sake, and....
SHARE THIS RIDICULOUS VIDEO if it made you chuckle, and you think it would do the same for someone else.
Much love to you all!

Fuck u deserve more views and accolade
Just came to say I still feel the same
Beautiful
What guitar is that red electric, line 6?
Отличный кавер!
Well done! A very intimate perfirmance. Beautiful voice! Excellent intonation and phrasing. Solid guitar work. Your lovely voice made this song work without a guitar improv. Brava!
Haven't listened to offspring in 10 years and I swear I heard this cover in a dream last night. Wake up, search, here it is. 👏
Woooooooooooooooow Incredible. I´m from Brazil and I liked your version. Congratulations.
bad fuckin jam. this is so tastefully done I love it
If I could like this 100 times I would. Beautiful cover!
Smoking Voice! Nice arrangement as well
que voz tan linda. y muy buena versión acústica...
Best version on the net had to listen again
1:12
Awesome Version of the song :)
very nice.
@AngelaLangfordMusic Just rediscovered this song after my son passed in June. I was just adding this with my band's song list; slowed down like you do it. Nice.
Beautifully done
awesome job on an amazing song ! keep it up, keep uploading! subbed and liked!
bump
Love the improvised solo
Nice
AngelaLangfordMusic: I have a request if you can do it! :)
Great job! Love the fills on guitar by the gentleman to her right.
Can't believe people are actually talking during this cover
lead guitarist is very good
Holy shit. That voice...
Hello! I really like your cover. Do you remember what chords you use for this?
Great performance!!! And such an incredible voice! I loved this!
Awesome job
I just happened upon your music while looking for an acoustic version of "Gone away" by offspring that I could learn on my guitar & next thing I know I've watched 5 of your covers! It blows my mind that someone as talented as you is playing for such little crowds! I could see you getting on The Voice with this "Crazy" cover! Anyways Good luck to you & your career! I hope I see you famous someday!
Holy wow. Blown away by this, amazing vocals and killer guitar!
Uffff !!! Simply amazing!!! Your voice conveys feelings and it is so difficult. It is so difficult and you do it so simple and beautifull . Great song bur the fucking best cover I´vw never heard
Absolutely agree with IM Clan. Not simply a worthy tribute - ya'll owned this one.
This is fantastic guys, loved it!
Oh wow! This is amazing!!
IMO the best cover of this song on TH-cam. Fantastic job and take on this classic. This version deserves a studio recording minus the bad lights and rude people talking in the background.
The singing of this song was absolutely unbelievable. Completely amazing.
Great Job!
nice rendition!
The first 2 notes played totally sparked some nostalgia to a song.. Had to browse for it, but it was Michelle Branch - Are You Happy Now?, lol odd I know, but I'm digging the the cover!!!
WOW ! totally beautiful !
Somg is awesome, bit the lights in th beginning is killing the mood, too fast
So good, keep it up!
Very cool!!
Do you do any original music? All I see is covers.
Oh... and I popped your cherry lol!!!!
I hate when good videos don't have any comments or recognition!!!! Really awesome cover , thanks your cover is awesome!!!
its great just you should have not speed up the rhythm at all unless there was a solo with it and that should be done then at the end...awesome singing :)
I'm gonna talk to my boss (CEO of the Mississippi Music Foundation) about getting you guys on one of our showcases! LOVE the vocals!
No, we're not on itunes yet. We need to do that soon. :)
