Music was truly at its peak here…why did this ever leave the mainstream…like are we nuts?? I’m 26 and have been really into the music and art that Sting/The Police have created. Where did we ever decide it was okay to take this music out of the limelight and out of pop culture..Music with such class, wisdom, vibrant instrumentation.🔥🔥🔥

[@ErickTenKleighen]

lol ur delusional

[@Blessedbeyondmeasur88]

You have great insight!! It is a beautiful catalog of music; the gift that continues to give. Allow your peers to listen and they will grow to love it as well!

[@redgreen__]

This is the internet right here, a nice thoughtful comment and then to polar opposite opinion comments responding 😂

[@benjOM100]

Agree 100% with you, but everything has it's ups and downs. Its just life...

[@nat1jtb]

When Spotify showed up....

[@BB-fk1wf]

One of the best songs by Sting, underrrated and culpably neglected

[@cyrilmatthew2995]

Couldn't agree more

[@elizabethmcleod246]

Absolutely two of my favourite songs of Sting.

[@JustAThought155]

Listen to THIS!!!! When the LIVE version supersedes the studio version, you KNOW you are witnessing master musicians!!!! Outrageous!!!

[@Sugarsail1]

Yeah they made it swing here, it's happening!!

[@joelegel1524]

I have grown up listening to Sting. This song has a special place for me for some reason.

[@klausbehrla8147]

For me too

[@andreigromek]

Me too. Maybe because he didn’t play it live much? His mother passed around the time of writing from memory. The “where does she get the strength to fight them anymore” line is beautiful

[@NJbakintheday]

I want my 80s (and 90s) back.

[@mayemcdonald9111]

NJbakintheday So do I.

[@admiralackbar9307]

80s Yes, 90s HELL NO!

[@JustAThought155]

…and Backing Vocalist, Dolette McDonald! 😉! Can’t forget to mention that talented singer in the band lineup.😁

[@jhetta22]

Kenny Kirkland R.I.P one of the best

[@bobyami9718]

The transition at 6:32 still rocks, amazing !!

[@christinapeter1001]

Police zu erleben von 76- heute war ne tolle erfahrung! Danke police

[@mayemcdonald4392]

Absolutely one of my all time favourite songs by Sting. What a groove. I am in heaven listening to this. Thank you for the post. ❤️🙏❤️

[@Luciana-Superluci-Marchi]

I agree

[@BB-fk1wf]

The original groove is from one of the groove masters, Manu Katche. An underrated genius.

[@kiwibass6207]

This is beautiful

[@fernandanachita4890]

His voice Is totally beautiful 😍 ❤️ I love u Sting🥺😻

[@cheersmarissa]

My favorite Sting song! So nostalgic! Another day another miracle!

[@F_Souto]

What a band!Awesome!

[@PallaraZara]

best version of this out there still, loving it.

[@DeadMemories9]

I wasn't like every other kid, you know, who dreams about being an astronaut, I was always more interested in what bark was made out of on a tree. Richard Gere's a real hero of mine. Sting. Sting would be another person who's a hero. The music he's created over the years, I don't really listen to it, but the fact that he's making it, I respect that.

[@noranemeth6061]

Awesome groove

[@fryk2462]

Really powerful...incredible live versión.
The heart of Lazarus beats strongly, in good health...

[@gzablodski]

Incredible atmospheric song!!!

[@AngelaT15]

Love this so much reminds me of driving round Spain in the mid 80’s

[@olegvo]

My favorite!
Ever

[@aiyannamokinok455]

groovy mystical

[@ManuelDiaz-lc9wl]

Dos buenas canciones en una. Nothing but the sun... Spirits in the material world...!!! Habrá de oír...Dios mío!!! Que belleza de pieza...!!! Dos álbumes imprescindibles para el rock and roll... Saludos desde Azcapo... CDMX

[@ВячеславНагуманов-х3и]

Невероятно❤

[@NutrapeeMongkolsawan-fz7bc]

To make Sting and stafff have a confidential like Lazarus 😊

[@JustAThought155]

Okay…..I’ve been STUNG!!!!🐝…bzzzzzz!!!!

[@RicardoMartinez-jy5lo]

As always before and after, whoever filmed this concert did not have a concept for focusing more than incidentally on a female playing an instrument for a celebrity singer, as here the bass: she seems particularly competent at it.

[@belochegman]

Спасибо!

[@tonymartello5494]

I keep wondering if Sting will make it on his own. lol

[@christinapeter1001]

Wo sting ist strahlt er er sonne an musiker und zuhörer aus. ☀️🌠

[@sadetwizelve]

"rain forest Sting" is 50/50 with me but when I first heard Lazarus Heart,I played it 5x

[@femme-mirage]

💗💗💗💗

[@phyllishannah7203]

Sing to me beautiful baby Sting

[@СергейКосаревв]

С 5:13 переход к No.2

[@whenpigsfly-tb28]

Sting wore a dress?

[@KRZYCHCZARA]

Rather very baggy trousers :-) 80's styley ;)

[@blahzay_]

Good grief, get a life.

[@Sugarsail1]

Great version , WAY Swingier and Latin pop than the album which is kinda straight and square. LOL Funny.

[@gang6009]

Sting wearing a dress dear gof

[@robertoherrera6858]

Such a beautiful song but too many people around playing.
