Juxton Blend lmao

Juxton Blend LMAOO
His voice is gold
La amazing
Like fields of gold..
I Love
@Pranish Khadka this guy? Lmfao he arguabally the best songwriter to ever live and he way ahead than axl rose , only that axl's range is better
Is a great song, but his voice is incredibly weak and one tone
People forget that there were other bands and musicans than Queen at this concert
I was never a queen fan. Never thought that their appearance was anything special.
And of lot of them truly sucked.
@@Straitsfan Shows what you know. Or rather what you don't know.
@@gizzyguzzi Please, it was a concert. I thought Dire Straits was every bit as good.
@@Straitsfan Please. Watch all the bands that played. Most were mediocre at best. No one owned the crowd like Queen that day. No one.
I've noticed how simple and quick the stage setup is for him. It's really just his guitar plugged straight into his amp through a scaringly short cable and the rest goes to the stadium's speakers. This is what makes this unique feeling of what LiveAid was. I wish they made quick concerts like this more.
I think that was Stings guitar setup during the 85-86 Blue Turtles tour when he played guitar instead of bass

The only Roxanne I listen to
Same
Me too
boomer
@@jackperson2236 this is real music, Zoomer
@@samiamcas yeah i listen to all sorts of music from all times you closed minded boomer, why do you think im here?
Imagine how sick it would be if the Police played these songs at Live Aid:
Message in a bottle
Roxanne
Can't stand losing you
Every breath you take
They could've hit the money goal by themselves...
You're forgetting So Lonely
Thar would be beautiful.... but....
True.Just imagine how powerful Roxanne could be if it was played by The Police in Live Aid concert.
@@edwinblanco-arnesto4461 I prefer Can't Stand Loosing You and I don't think they would play more than 4 songs but if they played a 5th than yeah So Lonely
I consider what they did exactly a year later at amnesty international to be their “live aid”
Sting goes to the beach and walks up to a rocky bit. Then stands where the rocks and the sand meet and shouts "ROOOOOCK SAAAAND!"
Good one! Very funny.
Hahahaha, good one dude good one
Rock lobster
Nice one 😂😂😂
Thanks for the joke Dad
He's nailing C5s like if they were nothing. Very consistent tone on the high notes, golden voice.
Amazing
The sax just adds that killer 80s touch....instant smokey club vibes!
Waiting for the rest of The Police... >.>
Genius meets genius.
Amen bro!!
The sax player is incredible. Warm sound, smooth melodies, great breath resistance. Paired with superb Sting’s voice and a cozy guitar as background… just wow.
Branford baby
Who was it?
@@mspjmason Branford Marsalis
No autotune needed..
You can't do over dubs if it's going out live on tv as it did sting SOUNDS on top form here and I'm not a fan of his
So lame without his band though. What a poof.
Autowhat?
@@chocomanger6873 not lame at all
@@jonasmusic8017 The man would be nowhere without Stewart Copeland.
If The Police had of performed at Live Aid, it would have for sure gone down in history and they would have blown the roof off the place. Both Andy and Stuart were available and willing but Sting was only into his solo career at this point. Still, a great performance.
Ill have to look out for him - Sting dosnt have the edge he had with The Police - thats the result of having yes people instead of people who fight you for every inch - thats why the police were so good @Tom Cat
There’s no roof on Wembley Stadium.
Right?? We wouldn't be talking about Queen now. They would've been despondent if the Police were still around. Sting the ego has now gone on to be the undisputed king of forgettable soft rock. Who would've known?
Bob Geldolf thought about asking Copeland and Summers about a Police reunion but at the time they hadn’t played since March 84’ and the general public hadn’t known they had broken up so Gedolf let Sting have his solo moment
it would have been as legendary as U2 and Queen's performances... or almost
Nobody mentions then 25-year old Bradford Marsalis? What a lovely, haunting sax he plays. Hats off.
So good
@fiucik1 Sting introduces Branford at 1:47. Saw his brother Wynton live at Ronnie Scott's - another class act.
Are you deaf? Sting gave him a shout.
Branford was already a jazz star; Sting stole him, and Kenny Kirkland, from his younger brother Wynton's band. Money talks.
It’s the most beautiful sound. Thank you for acknowledging BM 👍
How did I never realize that that is Branford Marsalis on the sax!!!
He played on Dream of the Blue Turtles album. (Englishman in New York, Moon Over Bourbon Street, etc) his effortless voicing is awe inspiring 36 years later...
That was literally one of the most impressive things I’ve ever seen
The secret policemans concert sting!
he looks so comfortable infront of 100k people and live broadcast around the world to a record audience at the time, he even wore pajamas!
Haha he would rather have his shirt off I guarantee you😊
Sting is vocal capacity is just above and beyond
Only 1.8m views, if this was written and released today in this arrangement it would have 1.8 billion views +
One of the greatest lyricist and musicians of all time in Sting.......and the greatest saxophonist ever Mr. Branford Marsalis( yes i have given due consideration to Coltrane, Rollins, Wayne Shorter, Oliver Nelson etc)
The saxophone is sick 💟🌌☮️
He gave credit to the Sax dude mad respect 💯😎
the sax dude is as a big a star in the jazz community as sting is in pop
Live Aid was such a monumental event. I was a senior in High School in 1986 and remember watching as much as I could live on tv in July of 85, and recording it on vcr for later. I wouldn't trade coming of age in the 80's for any other decade if I had the choice. What a time to be alive!
35 years in a couple of days
Will never forget this day
51 now .........
Imagine sting being ur old teacher watching this and saying oh that’s my old teacher on the stage at Frigging Live Aid
Magnificent performance by Sting and Branford Marsalis! Bravo!
He started off a bit shaky then got his bearings. His voice started to warm up. He signaled the sound man to lower the sax monitor just a tad and then Stingo ripped it in full voice.. A very difficult task indeed, to sing solo in a higher register like that in front of such a huge crowd without any effect on the voice, say for a bit of reverb. You can see and feel his confidence. A true professional.
He's not singing music, HE IS MUSIC. Oh and don't forget the band ❤️
"Ross caaan"
Rock sarn
😂😂😂😂
Galina O i was looking for this comment 😂😂
ROSS CAAAN GIMME THE TIICKETS
@@rafaelzavalacorrea5747 If ya'll dont get this reference gtfo
Underrated performance
tingles all the way up my spine; his voice is utterly remarkable, and the sax lick gives me life. Oh my, this is the pinnacle of musicality, and sting playing a guitar with six strings is a good look.
Indeed
Effortlessly done ❤
Branford Marsalis on sax.
Sting's voice is soooo amazing
Yes, his voice is amazing. And Bran, is great too.
Andy and Stewart were stuck in a taxi a few miles from wembley.
scrumsie how’d you find this out? Just curious.
@@noahusa3309 im just joking. But it would be fun?
scrumsie yea, I wish Andy and stew were at live aid :/
He needs the police, what happened to his music?
It’s unfortunate the police wasn’t reunited for this
1:40 the lick
ADAM!
*licc
Amazing voice & amazing sax 🎷
What a concert that year, the very best of the best, MY GOODNESS! 😍
Most handsome man with a receding hairline
Sting always had plenty of Sax appeal... 🎷
underrated performance on live aid
Agreed
Not underated at all
@@shane-irish why do people misunderstand the word "underrated" it means it doesn't receive as much attention or praise is it deserves which is 100% the case here.
The sax just adds that killer 80s touch....instant smokey club vibes!
Bradford Marsalis - sounding beautiful, accompanying Sting.
Roland Jazz Chorus 120 guitar Amp. Classic sound.
Seriously, it's utterly ridiculous how insanely good this is...
What a beautiful rendition, and Branford Marsalis was amazing!
This is great version of Roxanne jazzy soft and smooth with Sting's diomand voice and emotional sax
Wow. Just when I thought sting couldn’t get any better. Never seen him play a guitar.
Branford Marsalis
Best on the Saxophone...Bradford Marsalis...LEGENDS🤘🏾

1:39 guys the sax player literally played the lick. THE Forbidden Lick. I'm dying lol. Love it.
"HELLO~" sounds like my lecturer entering class 🤣
The sax👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Sting, he's someone i look up to. The music he's making, i don't really listen to it but, the fact that he's doing it i respect that.
Autotune? HOLD MY BEER!!
Genius meets genius.
Bradford Marsalis - love it!
1985 - 2018, still good voice...
With the pandemic and everything, some network executive worth whatever should acquire the rights to rebroadcast this event in its entirety this Sunday one day shy of its 35th anniversary. I sit in front of the TV like I was at the concert for the whole day.
Such a great idea !
STING !!! WHAT A PERFORMER !!!
This version is better than original 🔥
Is it me or did sting make losing his hair look cool as bleep?
rosssss cannnn give me the tickets!
This is best live version for me
А ДЖОРДЖ МАЙКЛ исполняет эту песню лучше , очень чувственно . Я его обожаю.....
37 years ago today and it's 2022. One of the greatest performance of the night and ya. The world is still effed up.
I listened to this whilst driving to Alton Holland in 1995. My friend lived there great times

Branford Marsalis played at the Live Aid?!?
Sting could have assembled the police for such a great concert
Sting= 🐐 Branford Marsalis= 🐐
Absolutely adore this version. 🎶👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🎶
Pretty good indicator of talent when you can strip it all down to a voice and a guitar and make this kind of an impact
Yes! Live Aid is not only Queen!
Ross can
Just too much music Gordon Sumner and Brandford Marsalis....
Sting is a gift.
Ross caaaan
Bradford's sax makes it !!
Sting is one of the most underated singers, only cos he comes from an era of legends ❤
And because he didn't want the glitzy fame
@@selinathesmileyone he's not underrated at all sorry where did you read that?
W.O.W
And he’s still got it 33 years on
Watching in 2023 from Oak Cliff, TX ❤
Ufff Aid 1985 the best the best history concert this history!!!
Is that Bradford Marsalis playing the sax?!
Sting unplugged live a sea of people
Sting.... Never mind your opinion....Gordon Sumner always attracted the finest musicians to help express his music, from Branford Marsalis to Stevie Wonder. A musical giant.
We call it soprano, babybuntin1 ;-)
what?
Hey, Sir Bob and Midge, you have the tapes, show it again to make people stay at home!
By far my favorite rendition of the song...
The police > Sting
Sting and Branford Marsalis .....
Better than the studio version and more passionate too❤️
Do you have the full introduction with Noel Edmonds, where he initially introduces Phil Collins by mistake? I'm not bothered about it being in stereo, but if it is in stereo then that would be a bonus.
Such a shame one of the greatest bands of all time didn't get to play together! Sting is obviously a rare talent but those songs were made to perform with Andy/Stuart or nothing!
Brilliant voice!
Just imagine if the whole band was there, i mean all of the three. 🙌🙌🙌
What a couple of bosses up there.
Just about to cry. This was the first hit that The Police had, and he sang it even after the band broke one year before (my English is terrible I know it) it is like a goodbye to that years -sobs-
This is a great version
come a long way from living above a chinese takeaway in newcastle ,,,,,,, but i have to say i like him ,,,,,,,,,,, great song writer and a true talent ,,,,,,,,,,,,,not Freddie but a great musician !!!!!!!!!!!
It just isn’t the same without Stewart and Andy
