In the movie "48 hours", Eddie Murphy's opening scene he's singing "roxanne" in his jail cell.
Such a great series, I'm absolutely it didn't get a trilogy. Right up there with Lethal Weapon for having action sequences that are intense, great humor, the partner relationship worked and they had phenomenal villains.
Necessary context.
EVEN THO THE MOVIE BE OLDER THAN THIS BROTHA.
#TimeFlies

Love that scene!!
Every time I hear it...I hear Eddie Murphy!!!
I think red light pertains to the “Red Light District”. Roxanne was “hooking”. But I could be totally wrong. 🖤
It does.
You are totally right!
That's how I always understood it
You are 100% correct
Miss Powers Totally right. Certain streets in for example Germany the working girls sit (of used to before at least) in windows - red light means they are up for hire.... Hence “red light district”.
You'll never hear the name Roxanne without going Rooooooooxanne!! Everyone hears it in their head!! 😂
It's true. My entire family, 1 cousin in particular who says/sings it everyone I see them/him.
I went to school with a girl named Roxanne and she had red hair just to top it off, pretty sure she hates this song now
He’s saying he loves Roxanne & she doesn’t have to prostitute herself anymore.
A red light by a door signifies a prostitute is there & available...
Glad you got your Police hat out, lol
Yep best interpretation I've heard yet.
It always makes me laugh that when the chorus hits, and he realizes that she did shut down and isn't available to him anymore, he starts desperately calling for her to turn on the red light. I guess he thought it was love when she knew it just was a transaction.
Charlotte the Harlot by Iron Maiden is pretty much the same story. Very 'Pretty Woman' ✌🏻😎✌🏻
@@superbooster2636 Not really, the line is "You don't have to put on the red light"
Why do i miss the 70s so much ? A big part was the MUSIC ,, Roxanne was released in 1978 I was 18
Don’t stand so close to me is a banger by Police!
Agreed!!
Yes, but make sure it's the 1980 version. They re-did that song with a different arrangement called "Don't Stand So Close '86." It's slower and gives a little more gravity to the subject of the song. It's still really good, but I like the original better.
And “Every Little Thing She Does is Magic”
I think I mentioned “Sting” he’s the lead singer (previously)......Englishman in New York is a song of his I love.
Knowing that Sting used to be a school teacher ... uuhhh ... LOL.
@@beowulf1005 gosh I despise the 1980 version and love the 1986 version. How tastes differ!!
My mom has been in the hospital for 2 weeks. She had a mini stroke. She's fine. I talked to her on the phone and she heard one of your videos in the background. She asked it I was watching you and I said yes. She said she can't wait to get home and smoke a bowl and watch one of your videos. Keep doing what you do. It's good for people's health. LOL
I hope your mum is home soon! Laughter is the best medicine!! 💖I'm going to smoke a bowl for her!! Xoxo
Hope for a speedy recovery for your mom. 🤗
☮❤🙏🏻
Prayers for your mother.
Wishing your mom a speedy recovery ❤️ Sounds like my kinda people 😂❤️
You will now randomly be blurting out "Roxanne" for the rest of your life. It's that catchy.
Just like Eddie Murphy....
There's a new sheriff in town and his name is Reggie Hammond!
@@rich_t I was just on a bus that rolled over 37 times and someone stole my Porsche!
YEEEESSSS!! I blurt it out A LOT🙃🤣🙃❤
Saturday nite live shouting-ROXANNE in an ELEVATOR he he
She doesn't have to wear the "sell yourself" makeup or dress and doesn't have to turn the red "open for business" light on anymore. He wants to take her away from that life and the two of them create a new life together.
"Pretty Woman"
Anyone who would be a prostitute is a soulless imbecile. There's no reforming them.
@@ckobo84 whaaaaat?
@@ckobo84 I feel sorry for you
I tried to to the same for someone and she didn't care and thought her way was better than having a relationship/life with me. It's hard to take them out of that life I guess.
The Police - "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic" ... "Don't Stand So Close To Me" ... "Can't Stand Losing You"
Sting: “I won’t share you with another boy”
Mr Video: HELL NO!
😂😂😂
Definitely One of their best songs.
Idk how but I scrolled upon this comment at just the right moment👌🏼🤯 3:50
He sings it with so much conviction, as if it were true😉
he is talking about the red light district . she walks the streets for money.
Yes - it's actually in the lyrics - "you don't have to put on the red light -- walk the streets for money - you don't have to sell your body to the night" -- duh, MV -- he usually has a little more comprehension... lol
You need to hear their reggae song...Everything little thing she does is magic...its brilliant...you'll love it.
Have you noticed that the hook from Bruno Mar’s “Locked Out of Heaven” has a similar beat to “Every Little Thing She Does is Magic?”
Virtually their entire catalogue is influenced by reggae...including Roxanne
@Ce Ha for what purpose?
Sooooooo goood!
@Ce Ha oh okay sure. For great reggae based rock listen to The Police!
Message In A Bottle - Police was not prepared for the pink socks at the start 😀.
😂🤣Ditto..Leo does have some fancy socks slippers
I can't listen to this song without hearing Eddie Murphy singing it! 😆

The red light in the song refers to what prostitutes used to use to indicate what they were. (Red light for ladies and blue light for transsexuals) The song is about a man who falls in love with such a lady and tries to persuade her to give up her profession.
Such an iconic song by the Police. Stings voice is so cool.
The Red Light District in Amsterdam women turn on a red light when they are hooking, they pose in windows - hence ppl say window shopping
Roxanne..you don't have to turn on the Red Light!! Great Banger! Reminds me of Eddie Murphy singing this in the movie 48 hours!! Excellent 👍👍👍 Rock it out!! 🙌🙌🙌
I just about wore out every Police cassette I owned. Love them.
I still have a Police 8-track in storage LOL
Eddie Murphy sings this song at the beginning of Beverly Hills Cops. 😂😂
I think it was “48 hours”! 😉
@@rb7007 I think you are right!! I'm smoking with Mr. Video!! 😂😂😂
Hey dummy it was Another 48 hours.
I was half right; I said 24 hours, lol!!!!
@@rb7007 Yeah every time I hear this song it reminds me of that scene! 😂
The Doors- L.A woman !!
Brazil love you!
Prefer The Doors-"Whiskey Song" which sounds like a "pedophile song in the 2nd verse BUT remember that in the 60's, 'little girl' could refer to a small woman or young woman of age. Drives me crazy that people assume the worst about music written in a different generation with different phrasing.
I've been down to damn long💯❣️
"I told you!".
"Tell you once I won't tell you again it's a bad way."
😂😂😂😂😂✌️✌️😂😂😂😂😂
Watching on the front porch smoking the morning medication and enjoying.
Love Police's Reggae beats
Copelands drumming reminds me of Cream, Ginger Baker on drums.
Clapton and Jack Bruce. First supergroup!!
Check out: White room, and Sunshine of your Love!!
When this came out it was just great song and their debut single. All we knew was that they were from the UK. Now I listen to it and realize how much reggae influenced it is.
Red light district. She doesn’t have to sell herself anymore. You have to do Live is Life by Opus!!
Agree ❤️
O please no, it's a toxic earworm. I can hear it in my head just from reading your comment.
Still a banger 🚦🔥
Sting was a School teacher in a previous Life, before he turned to Music. What a voice! Loved The Police. Btw, check out 'Don't Stand So Close To Me'. He witnessed more than his fair share of young school girls crushing on him as a young, handsome teacher : )
Waking and baking with Police
Legendary song.
They know how to groooove- "When The World Is Running Down, You Make The Best Of What's Still Around"... fitting and a jam!
Oh yeah that one's a SERIOUS JAM!
Sting: Roxanne, you don’t have to turn on the red light.
Dr. Dre: So what you found a Roxanne that you like; You can’t make a Roxanne a housewife.
Listen to “If You Love Somebody Set Them Free” by Sting and “Cactus Tree” by Joni Mitchell!
My 5 year old daughter daughter just heard me laughing out loud and came downstairs to be nosey. You’re funny af! “Me & the police....no wait! I’m not gonna say that.” 😂😂😂
I'm only here for the "He was in love with a hooker" comments well that and Walking on The Moon has to be the next police reaction!
Walking on the Moon! Andy plays chords no human should attempt. Remember the Summers/Fripp album?
Oh my gosh! My dad used to sing this song at karaoke when I was a kid he's a 6'3" cowboy who used to ride bulls and do demolition derby for a living LOL💗! Let me tell you people got a huge kick out of it for sure, Oh and the lead singer is Sting too. Great song!
Folks in the comments have already said it, this red light is not a Stop-Light. It´s what´s called around these parts "The Red Lantern". Fun reaction as always. Keep them coming!
I haven't heard this song in awhile. Thank you for doing a reaction to it .
My uncle was hospitalized with a brain tumor, inoperable and he passed within 3 weeks of diagnosis. While in and out of morphine he had a new nurse and she introduced herself even though his eyes were closed and he hadn’t responded in a while. Roxanne.
He didn’t open his eyes but he broke out with ‘RoxAaaannne’ 🥰
Miss him.
I saw Sting (the lead singer of The Police) here on Maui at an outdoor concert next to the ocean. It was such a magical performance as the full moon appeared in the sky & the night weather was perfect. I'll never forget it!
The Police are one of my favorite bands so many great songs. Their sound is so diverse and experimental with so many styles, add to that Sting's unique voice and they are unmatched. New Wave is really the best Genre! Give a listen to any of these: "Beds Too Big Without You", "Driven To Tears", "Reggatta de Blanc", "Masoko Tanga", "Spirits in The Material World", "Can't Stand Losing You"......
I don’t even care if the lyrics are misinterpreted. I fuck with Mr Video. My favorite reaction channel hands down. He’s genuine.
In 1977, The Police where an upstart band mostly rehearsing. Sting, married but away from his Wife at the time, was staying with band mate Stewart Copeland. Sting wrote the song overnight, after everyone had gone to bed, on acoustic guitar with a Bosa Nova beat (Brazilian). When he brought it to the band, a few days later, they suggested putting it to a reggae beat and a hit was born. Sting later said he was inspired by a cheap Paris Hotel, a Hotel often used by the ladies of the night, he once stayed at while touring with a previous band. It had red lights.
This goes good with coffee and smoke. Here hit this...
Monsieur R-E-A-L!!
Man, watching you respond to music I gave up on years ago is like having a child of own. It's just discovery and joy, and a little figuring.
"Why are your socks on!!?" 😂🤣😅🤣 😂
Bruh, you had me ded 💀 ⚰
Really proud of you today. That Subscriber Trophy is to cool. Can't think of a better recipient. You an influencer and you keep jamming to all the genres of music. We love it.
The Police were an extremely influential band that were 80s royalty. There greatest hits are a big part of many of our lives. Spirits In The Material World is a big favorite of mine.
YASSS!!! ROOOOOOXXXXAANNNNEEEEE!!!!
I've heard this song numerous times throughout my life. It still gives me chills and pumps me up. Can't find that sound anymore.
Fun fact... Sting was 35 when he finally hit it "big"... So it doesn't matter how long you do anything, hard-work will, eventually pay off. Great reaction!!!
whoa, all this time, and it all came down to "Roxanne, get nekkid."
😂
😂😂
Dude is in love with a lady of the evening.....red light district is usually the same everywhere, right.....this song is so different. The Police did a lot of synchronization in their timing......and Sting is so pitch perfect. Enjoy these 3- talented musicians and vocalists.....classically trained too.
🎼🎶🎸🎸🔥🤘😎check out “Walking on the moon”. One of my fav songs by these guys.
Haha this song is my really name... imagine everyone sing you this song to you your whole life 😅🤣🤣
What a fabulous name, love it!!!
Thank u 🙂.. i love my name too spelled little diff than most Roxann but it means new morning dawn :)
@@timelessharmonie3243 What a beautiful meaning, you're very lucky 😍 I'm named after a quiche 😂 xx

@@timelessharmonie3243 You are so sweet & very kind but it's an utterly pants name, i've accepted it 🤣
HET IT LEO ! DO THAT
COUCH JAM & DANCE!
L💗VE WATCHING YOU
WATCHING THEM !
BEST VIBES EVER 💜💫♥️🎶🎸💯😎🙃🙂
Love The Police!!! I was fortunate to go and see them in concert back in the 70's and went solo. What a feeling of freedom to not have to worry or look for anyone in a humongous crowd.
Great memories about this concert! Roxanne is my definite favorite song of this band. Message In A Bottle is definitely a close tie for first place. 🎸 Rock On!!!
you can see eddie murphy singing this in 48 hrs lol
Every Breath You Take, Everything She Does Is Magic, Message In A Bottle. Sting the singer went on and did a solo career.
Sting is amazing. No one like him at all.
"Message in a bottle", "so lonely", "walking on the moon"
Take your wig off...you're making me think about that hilarious WAYANS movie!!! Yessss!
Thank you! I'm gonna git you sucka! ✌🏻
Yay! You played it finally. Aww, Sting is a Wizard at great music. Seen many concerts of him, met him backstage.
This is the first video I'm watching today.
It's interesting how the meaning of the song lyrics change as you age. When I first heard this song I knew it was a BANGER but I didn't give much attention. Years later my friend and I were stopped at a red light and there was a hotel at the corner and there was a RED LIGHT IN THE WINDOW. My friend said I guess it's "time for business" and I asked "what does that mean?" She said "you know like in the song" She explained the lyrics in the Police song. I was like "WOW!"
It's just like meanings of love songs change pre and post break ups.
Pre break up you're in love and everything is groovy.
Post break love songs are like daggers to your soul.
We used to play the Roxanne drinking game. Take a sip (or a small puff?) every time they say Roxanne. U are WRECKED by the end. 😂
Thanks for bringing me back to some great high school memories. Bouncing with the Police💞
Omg your dancing etc. thru this one was FANTASTIC! 😍
Keep it up! Love it! The police were my favorite band in middle school. I had a different police shirt for each day of the week. Haha. Every little thing she does is magic next please!!
Why is 70s music so good ?
😂 I am crushing so hard on you right now.... love your interpretations of songs.. wish I could see your face when you read the REAL meanings... good job, again
The best thing is that you are making me love all kinds of music again.
Probably a few of you already explained it: In an interview Sting said, that he got the idea after the band was playing a show in a club called The Nashville in Paris. After the show he was walking through the red-light district for the first time and he imagined what it would be like to fall in love with one of the ladies. When he arrived at the hotel there was this old poster of Cyrano de Bergerac in the hotel foyer. And the name of the character on the poster was Roxanne.
Dude, when you called the next lyric... I was dying. 😆😆😆💀💀💀
Sting... got his name from black and yellow tops he wore..like a wasp.. also a teacher.. pretty good singer as well .. loved The Police back in late 70s when I was at school... bloody marvellous. 😎
I remember this song from when I was 12 or 13....thanks for sharing it!
Its crazy i just discovered this song today and he posts a video reacting to it.💯 what a kickass song
Man, the '80s had such richly, varied genres of music. A lot of creativity crafted in that decade.
Making my lunch break a lot more fun. Great music and reactions as usual. 😄😄
The Police Synchronicity tour was one of the best concert tours of the 80’s! I was 16 and we were all in love with Sting!
The red light is definitely hookin, man that cracked me up when you started doing the robot 😂🤣😂🤣
The lyrics is about being in love with a prostitute. He's saying that he wants to take her away from that life. At brothels, there would be a red light in front of the girl's room to indicate that she was available (hence the term "red-light district").
Watching you is my new past time! You are so funny! Keep it up!
Nice nice... I saw them play in a tent on Tooting Common, South London, just before they hit... must have been about 1977 or so...
one that gets you out of your seat is “when the world is running down” (as someone else here reminded me)... I’d love to see what you make of that
Rooooxxxaaane!! Epic! Thanks for this Mr.V ✌
Sting one of the all time greats 😍 Whatever he (or his wife) does I'm a fan! They do a lot of charitable works.
Fun fact: Sting got that nickname because when he was younger he played soccer wearing a yellow and black striped shirt that his friends jokingly said made him look like a bee. Buzz buzz.
Was wondering when you were going to get to this. I used to take it personally, until I realized Sting is singing about his love for Roxanne. Yep, I'll take him! 🤣
This song came out when I was 13 years old.
Did anyone mention the Roxanne drinking game? Every time he sings Roxanne, take a drink! Drink responsibly, wipe up your mess lol.
Beatles sang about holding hands, this song is a love song for a lady of the night. The difference between those songs is about 15 years. Interestingly enough, in their early days The Beatles played in a club in the Hamburg red light area. Sting who composed this got the idea on the walk on Paris red light area on their early European tour when they were largely unknown band. The piano chord in the beginning is an accident. While recording, sting sat down on a piano not noticing the lid over the keys was open.
My friend and I were in first grade singing this lol. Its a good one!
“Take off your socks to” you kill me! 😂🤣😂🤣
A bartender at our favorite watering hole is named Roxanne. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard someone who asks what her name is, sing it back to her, Roooooxanne! Aaaand, she rolls her eyes......again.
Also, their song "Synchronicity" is awesome. And the leader singer, Sting, had a truly phenomenal solo career. He was also.known for having tantric sex, btw.
Oh yeah, The 👮 👮 Police A blast from the past!! *Roxanne you don't have to put on the red light* I love this track it's so upbeat. Ty for sharing. 👌👍 💜
I saw this band with my Dad in 1978, and then saw them with my son in 2008. Still great. Plus, I got to have my kid see Elvis Costello and Cheap Trick... both of which are great acts you should react to. Some great tunes in that show. Even my kid was impressed.
Good Lord man, where did you learn to do Chest Isolations like that?! That and body rolls, are you a solid gold dancer? Awesome!
Your shoulder is doing overtime with this song. That shoulder belongs in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame
I love this song it stays im your head forever.
There is a famous drinking game that goes with this song
You take a shot every time you hear "Roxanne"
Your buddy takes a shot every time they hear "Red light"
Good luck :-D
I love that you didnt know what it meant and came up with a complete thesis! You Are a Gem of Truth Brother.
Here is one you' ll like.
"Say Goodbye" - Dave Mattew's Band. The message is one you can riff on!
Love the police. Sting made it famous on his own and the drummer Stewart Copeland composes many movie sound tracks!! Great talent!!!
I had a cat named Roxanne. I used to call her just like that...ROOXXXANNE. She'd come skidding around the corner and look at me like WHAAAATT?? 😂😂Pweese, pretty PWEEESE..Synchronicity 2. There's a crazy video but trust me, you need the lyrics.
