Every Breath You Take - The Police (Postmodern Jukebox Live From Las Vegas) ft. Jaclyn McSpadden

[@poppeta22]

This sounds less like a stalker and more like a lover who is passing away but promising to be there in spirit. Much love ❤

[@azizimansor664]

Mine too

[@TheGrungy1]

Yeah it dose. And that's how i used to see the police version too. Till it hit me one day.

[@holyhellitsautumn]

@Feather1916 It is intended to be just that. Sting, the writer and lead of The Police, has said as much several times. One couple told me 'Oh we love that song; it was the main song played at our wedding!' I thought, 'Well, good luck'. I think the song is very, very sinister and ugly and people have actually misinterpreted it as being a gentle little love song, when it's quite the opposite. -Sting

[@ivanariefianto6491]

@Feather1916 yes it's up to you how to interpreted this song but for the writer maybe want at least people know what this song meaning is I do drawing and painting, when people comment and miss interpreted my illustration I just want, you know tell them what I really draw

[@christiantenay2193]

Ty so much. It's true.

[@ComeAndHaveFun1876]

Holy Moley Cannolis!!! What a voice !!!! No auto tune, no computerization, 1000% pure and raw talent. THIS is what we need in the music industry today.

[@morell7027]

I couldn't agree more, Miss Ruhlman. This truly is the embodiment of talent we're witnessing here. I'm glad to be alive to hear this. Let's route for their tour to go well.

[@darioildiario3001]

It's crazy how people call rappers singers... how can they miss the huge difference iun technique ad expression, how can't they distinguish a random dude talking about imaginary ghettoes, and a person that has a musical instrument in his throat?

[@samliptay9838]

dario il diario i mean her voice and this song are phenomenal, don’t get me wrong but there have always been people with beautiful voices and there are already hundreds of songs just like this one...If musicians are to continue to push boundaries and find new frontiers, electronic music is where the future lies. A musicians talent extends far beyond the quality of their voice.

[@antoniomaccagnano6662]

Holy words, Eve!!! 😊👍

[@wtsalive8210]

100% correct, Miss Ruhlman. My thought was one word only: WOW

[@Matt-vv7fl]

This is live? This is better than most artist's best studio work. And they don't have the benefit of endless takes, multiple sound engineers, and a dozen different mixes. This is talent!

[@ShaiYammanee]

Yes, Jaclyn is an amazing performer, and the most beautiful hearted person. This performance was even better in person. I was in the audience the night this was recorded.

[@Jessupz]

Just because it's live doesn't mean the audio files can't be edited. This isn't 1965 anymore. In fact I bet they put some serious fucking work mixing and mastering this live concert and every individual audio file to sound just as beautiful as it does. Furthermore I wouldn't be surprised if a bit of pitch correction was used here and there tastefully. Just because you're ears don't pick it up doesn't mean it's not there.

[@ShaiYammanee]

@@Jessupz - Although, in certain circumstances you may be correct, in this one you are not. I was at that performance and what you hear in this recording is exactly how Jaclyn sounded in the room. I’ve also worked with her on multiple occasions and she is always extremely impressive.

The lead singer actually nails a high F (above High C). Unbelievable. And BTW, this is an amazing arrangement AND an exceptional performance all around. Kudos to all! And Phooey to the people who didn't like it.

How many octaves does she use here? Her range alone is amazing, but she expresses so much emotion with every grace note, every touch of vibrato. This is beautiful.

This is the only channel that genuinely inspires and mesmerizes me with almost every video they share. Such brilliance exists in no other music channel (or likely any channel period). Brava to PMJ. Brava to Jaclyn.

@@whatisgoingonherebruh1 Your response comes off as racist. "Every african-american women sound the same". They do not.

[@Vikezupa]

Sebastiaan Rabet dude, regardless of race you’re confusing the pre-packaged vocal licks with real talent. This vocal arrangement was infused perfectly with the music - not the other way around - which is what happens with the Industrial music complex. There’s no doubt she could do amazing, yet soulless, vocal calisthenics with those pipes but she was perfectly restrained. No, the whole arrangement is top shelf. I do get your point, though. I’m sick of pre-packaged vocal licks....the same old licks singers from all walks try to emulate.

[@spicklesandwich]

You actually managed to make the classic stalker song less creepy. Sounds like someone looking on fondly from the afterlife or something.

[@pheonixrises11]

Jason Nordin sometimes l try to think of the original song that way and l just can’t

[@marcgrundfest1495]

Sounds like a normal infatuation. When you dont take it literally.. music, as intended, is by definition a form of art, and thus exadurated. Among normal humans anyway.

[@marcgrundfest1495]

@Iris King As bereft of nuance as you appear to be ,I dont think you need worry about it... But if it concerns you lots of good therapy is available these days.. also notice that these ideas predate rock ' music' , metal and psychedelic drugs..

[@marcgrundfest1495]

@Iris King I really think you should get checked ... your lack of understanding of linguistic nuance is typical of the spectrum... meanwhile art did not originate with rock..nor can it be said that rock is an art ,let alone subtle one. Now suppose you pretend to understand the concept of hyperbole. Now you could also understand that ' every ' does not mean every.. and that this is not a literal statement, but a lyrical one. Perhaps at some point you actually went to a school where they taught you say, English literature.. perhaps you even read a few of the romantic poets.. The truly hilarious thing is that the prime reason this song is often 'misinterpreted' is that its author was likely also neural atypical and thus could not conceive that lyrics are themselves generally considered in the context of poetic expression, not literalism. But no matter..gone are the days when it's ok for autistics define normality. Get checked ...it will help you socially..

[@marcgrundfest1495]

@Iris King Oh for fks sake. Look up the word hyperbole. ;) Then go " stalk" someone else. Bonus question is that hyperbole?

Unbelievable. Magic in miracle are at home in her voice. I found myself wondering in earnest not long after the song had begun why it hadn't been presented in this genre to begin with. No doubt because this incredibly talented young lady had yet to be born.

[@sootikins]

That's Dani Armstrong on the right and the smile is probably a case of real recognizing real. Dani is a damn fine "power" soprano herself. She sings the lead on several PMJ arrangements, most notably IMO their interpretation of _Chandelier_

[@MegaTeeruk]

That borders on super human. Truly incredible.

[@LiannaBabeli]

You know people call this a 'stalker' song and I always thought of it as a love song. Seeing these comments makes me wonder what I missed the last twenty years of my life with this song. Regardless, Jaclyn is sheer poise, grace, passion, intensity, sensuality, and beauty aurally in this piece. It's like an angel reflecting on the world and giving us a small window into their lives. Beautifully done. ^^

[@Fluffyudders]

I have only now, watching this video, realised the true potential of PMJ. For years, possibly decades, the music industry has had a serious problem - amazing singers go unrecognised because it's all about image and marketing. Voice becomes secondary to racy music videos and coming over 'cool' to a younger and increasingly jaded demographic. Incredible singers like Jaclyn here would never get their big break, the whole industry infatuated with the artificial, and in the last 10 years or so your only hope to making it big was selling your soul somewhere like the X-Factor. PMJ as a brand has the power to change all that. Nothing artificial, pure excellence. So long as PMJ can continue to grow while maintaining a reputation for amazing performances like this one, it can become an absolute industry force, highlighting pure talent above all else. Exposing artists like Jaclyn to the world through the power of the internet. The traditional corporate music industry and 'chart music' has been dying for years now, the only question was what would finish it off and replace it. PMJ has the power to be that, the revival of REAL music. How exciting! If anyone at PMJ HQ sees this make sure you understand what you have the potential to become, and as a consequence, NEVER let any corporate entity start muscling in on you. You are the future.
