If you are truly a fan of music, you will appreciate how fantastic this performance is. IMO not since being with The Police has Sting had a band this good.. I only have four words.. Omar Hakim and Branford Marsalis.. Listen to the interaction of live drums and sax, these two musicians are playing off of each other. Sting is just background at this point and he lets them go, you will even see the bass player and Kenny Kirkland RIP on keys turn to watch and smile at how good this is and the typically reserved and polite French audience stand up and applaud what they hearing.

Amazing drummer! Love this song and the film Brimstone and treacle. Rest in peace to the late great Denholm Elliott.🙏🙏🙏

Best version of this song.

A personal favorite performance live

Had the extreme pleasure of driving PH around to gigs in Detroit in the late sixties and would like to thank whoever put this fine video together with one of the most moving songs that The Harum ever produced. Stunning work. Gary will be proud of your work.

I love it ... !!!

My dad made this and he doesn't remember the pw

Evening King K is seen in the background laughing

First time I saw this performance I was at a party in the mid 90's and I didn't no who the heck Omar Hakim was at the time. I knew who Sting, Bradford and King Kenny were but after that performance I found out. I was early 20's and I said to myself, "he absolutely ripped it in a crescendo of controlled rage!"

One of my favorite songs for sting. I saw this song performed live in LA in 1985.

You are lucky that you are alive and you can enjoy it.

Omar!!🙏🙏🙏

Three different segments, with three different tempos, in this song. I am not a musician, but this piece is quite exceptional, IMO.

Nathan , Kenny, Bradford , Omar outstanding musicians also when I saw the Bring on the night touring Birmingham Sting brought on Ranking Roger and Neville Staples from the Beay and the Specials then rounded the night off with a curry afterwards.

RIP Gary Brooker, thank you for the music.

Can somebody explain why this solo is not in the live album version? It annoys me listenning to the album and wait for it!

This is really unbelievable now that back there in mid 80s the rock star Sting gathered thousands of people in the biggest stadiums in the world where the super-heroe jazz band showed off with almost regular jazz. It gave rock music an unprecedented value. Brandford solo is really exceptional!

It always amazes me just how good everything about this song and performance is! Lord it’s so good!!

Spiritual sensuality and BURNING DESIRE this song-every version! The Last Exit version is beautiful Sting sounds like he's a chior boy singing a naughty song. This version takes me to the motherland like The Police version but this one is orgasmic!! Explosive! Omar Hakim, Brandford...ALL OF THEM are amazing!!! LOVE Sting.

Do you know the original version from Hot Gossip (1981)? Boy, that is some stuff!!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/paCyhKODrquEgrM

That is one of Hell of song. Killer version that drummer cooked. 😀✌️👍👌🎸😎

Une chanson qui méritait d'être connue davantage...

Dreamy, mesmerizing and sick af

A beautiful piece of video, complimenting a superb song!

INCREDIBLE solo Omar - YOU are GREAT

This is epic!

Omar kills it in this song, so good

This really is special.

What's with the slow?

U

Capolavoro.....🌹🥀🌺

mama mia! Pure artistry.

Check out Hakim's stick grip, 4:28.

He's okay.

Kenny Kirkland at 4.17

nice ray, nice omar

Very beautiful

Perfect 😍

This is not the voice of Peter Gabriel (although it is) because the song is pitched 1 whole tone lower. Great song btw

Very sad and lonely video . . . I feel bad for the man in the rain :'(.

That's the great jazz saxophonist, Branford Marsalis!

As long as it isn't red.

Lyrics All hands on deck, we've run a float, I heard the Captain cry. Explore the ship, replace the cook, Let no one leave alive. Across the straits, around the horn, How far can sailors fly? A twisted path, our tortured course, And no one left alive. We sailed for parts unknown to man, Where ships come home to die. No lofty peak, nor fortress bold, Could match our captain's eye. Upon the seventh seasick day, We made our port of call. A sand so white, and sea so blue, No mortal place at all. We fired the guns, and burned the mast, And rowed from ship to shore. The captain cried, we sailors wept, Our tears were tears of joy! Now many moons and many Junes, Have passed since we made land. A Salty Dog, the seaman's log, Your witness, my own hand. Songwriters: Gary Brooker / Keith Reid

scarface composer totally ripped this off

nonostante gli anni ascoltarla...è sempre una toccante emozione...!

si vola sulle onde dell'oceano infinito, e vai!

programma AVVENTURA, sigla finale... MERAVIGLIA EPOCALE

I used to practice on that blue kit every day - Omar is the man
