Sting - Message In A Bottle (Radio 2 in the Park 2024)

[@chrissilvester5663]

In his 70s & yet he's still fuckin smashing it. A true music icon singing such a legendary tune

❤❤❤agreed so glad im An 80’s child I had all the albums ! Learnt this song on electric guitar because of him ! I remember watching Police in Japan do documentary at Xmas ! Loved it was glued to it. ! Saw The Police last gig 2007 Cardiff have the t shirt still ! None of this Oasis crap reunion lol bring back sting Andy and Stewart ❤❤❤

[@demonicsweaters]

Such a freaking monster bass player too.

[@tonirusso9253]

True for sure… Though, seeing this performance through a bass players eyes…I was left wondering why he didn’t play the full original bass line ..?

[@demonicsweaters]

@@tonirusso9253 probably just keeping it fresh for himself.

[@lptomtom]

He's a great player but he sounded much better with a pick IMO, it doesn't matter when he plays his softer songs but the Police era needs that edge, especially in a power trio format

[@christopherwhittaker2620]

@@tonirusso9253why should he play the exact same original bass line ? Most live acts don’t always play the exact copy of the original song. And that’s a good thing

[@listenup7284]

Looks like he simply can't play it anymore.

[@marcusnolte7476]

correct. Andy's guitar parts are reproduced lackluster also

[@OndrausCissell]

Almost nothing is as good as the original. This is one of those instances. You just can't copy The Police. I've seen The Police live twice in 1983 and 2005 . This is good but, it can't compare to the original. Whether Sting wants to or not. Who needs to create his own label and put out some more new music possibly. I mean if he is this nostalgic just put the police back together because he's the only one that doesn't want to do it with them because they fight so much it seems. Then he could have more concerts in America possibly. I saw Sting live in 2000 and he was great and his band was great but this just isn't as good as those other three instances for me. CHEERS
