STING (Live) - IF YOU LOVE SOMEBODY SET THEM FREE (Rare Live 80s w / lyrics)

LYRICS:
Free free set them free (8x)
If you need somebody, call my name
If you want someone, you can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me
If you love somebody If you love someone
If you love somebody If you love someone
Someone - set them free
Free free set them free, set them free (4x)
If it's a mirror you want, just look into my eyes
Or a whipping boy, someone to despise
Or a prisoner in the dark
Tied up in chains you just can't see
Or a beast in a gilded cage
That's all some people ever want to be
If you love somebody If you love someone
If you love somebody If you love someone
Someone - set them free
Free free set them free, set them free (4x)
You can't control an independent heart
You can't tear the one you love apart
Forever conditioned to believe that we can't live
We can't live here and be happy with less
So many riches, so many souls
Everything we see that we want to possess
If you need somebody, call my name
If you want someone, you can do
You can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me
If you love somebody If you love someone
If you love somebody If you love someone
Someone - set them free
Free free set them free, set them free (4x)........

Man, I've seen lots of live versions of this song on TH-cam, but this one far surpasses the power of even the studio recording. Fantastic dynamics, excellent instrumentals, dead on backups & Sting like I've never seen him. Unbelievable! Still with you buddy after 33 years & always a fan.

[@milanporopat1157]

Same here

[@tiffyjade690]

I love many Sting songs.
This one is my favorite.
I just love the rich melodies of the song.

Man I wish I was born in the 60’s I’ll be at this concert and forever remember this moment for the rest of my life 😭

[@HairyMunci]

This is my absolute favorite sting song - a lot of people don’t like it but the keyboards on this are simply mesmerizing

BEST VERSION

[@nahnni]

Classic Sting and his best era of solo music and film work. He looked and sounded so poetic in those days.

[@rainayoung6838]

A artist is someone who have touched others on a level that is soooooooo personal. It's as if a piece of their spirit was given.
STING HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH HE HAVE TOUCHED ME WITH HIS MUSICAL IDEAS 😍

Can we talk about how incredible Sting's voice sounds live? Just as good, if not better than his recordings

Absolutely amazing performance. Back when concerts like this carried a message and were genuine, not forced, pretentious fakery like today.

[@RastaSaiyaman]

At the Nelson Mandela 70'th anniversary this song was clearly the most appropriate. But I have to say the most moving was Peter Gabriel performing "Biko" which just gave me goosebumps.

[@mettamoose5074]

Holy cow, this is fantastic footage I've never seen before! I'm trying to identify the band - clearly that's Branford blowing the tenor, but I'm not sure about the rhythm section! Is that a young Gail Anne Dorsey on bass? And maybe Mark Brzezicki on drums? I'd love to know, they were smokin' subs for Victor Bailey and Omar Hakim!

[@Ely_in]
