Every little song the LLB covers is magic!

[@FransvandenBergeMuziekschuur]

Agreed.

[@iainmacleod4007]

The same thought went through my head. Mike Vandemark is so versatile his singing is virtually indistinguishable from Sting. This is a superb cover.

[@bradh.689]

If you're not a musician, you'll never understand just how hard it is to reproduce a song EXACTLY like the original!! This is a PERFECT EXAMPLE of how to do it!! Every little thing they do is MAGIC!!

[@petergray3594]

The other danger is playing it better. The original recording was cobbled together with Stings demo of the song. In the studio they were not able to create the track themselves. This is what the song would have sounded like if they had.

[@mrrusty1965]

What’s the synth patch used/arpeggio? LFO setting? ASDR levels? I wish to recreate on my Roland Juno-X.

[@brunnoperlati8730]

Indeed! The Policie can't come even close of this

[@jhackett9482]

Dang guys that was crazy good. The keys were off the chart, great singing and the drummer did the perfect fills like Stewart C. Not sure if the police could sound this good.

[@EloyGijon67]

Semi-pro or pro musicians can copy exactly any song in short time. Your comment is really hilarious. The hard thing is to write a song and then it's a classic like this one.

[@czimm88]

The piano was spot on. It's such an important part of this song.

[@rongoodwin418]

Lead singer has an awesome voice, Sting is my favorite musician and vocalist but this guy has an amazing voice, brought me to tears of joy when I heard him sing, the band was great as well!

[@deanc.5984]

Piano, bass, drummer NAILED IT.🍺

[@arthurschipper8906]

How deep in the pocket must the drummer be to do Stewart Copeland justice on this song? Im gonna say deep.

[@mickwade9499]

One of my all-time favorite tunes from one of my all-time favorite bands. Everything here is on point, with a special shout-out to the pianist. This is just good.

[@tokugawa12able]

Beyond exceptional. I’ve listened for decades concentrating on Copeland’s crack of the snare, the flams, the cuts, the fills and his unequalled musicality, I’ve come away cold when others have tried. Ryan nails this solid. What a joy to listen to this.

[@one0nine]

Ryan's brilliant work coupled with this perfect mix deserves the Leroy Coolbreeze award, no question. (IYKYK)

[@JS-hu7pv]

Did Copeland play this traditional grip?

[@Homesteading-A-Z]

@@JS-hu7pvCopeland always played traditional grip

[@TheSgbarter]

Fretless bass steals the show! for me! Love it!!

[@TudorSmith]

I'm with you on that 👍

[@keepingup2952]

What's the advantage of fretless, is it just the ability to slide notes?

[@TheSgbarter]

@@keepingup2952 Sliding notes and a soft/mellow tone. You have to be very accurate to avoid being sharp or flat, which is very noticable with a bass.

[@SPQRTempus]

The Police were an amazing band. This song is so layered and complex but you guys more than do it justice.

[@techdadnyc]

Excellent!

[@soldier7439]

I nominate Ryan for the “Drummers Hall of Fame”.

[@jameshisself9324]

Pretty dang fantastic. I bet it sure is nice having a reliable tenor on hand who is a bit of a chameleon. Well done sir.

[@richardmello3888]

Not an easy song to get it to sound like the way you guys played it. LLB is a monster in the studio.

[@michaeliannacone8639]

Love the traditional grip by Ryan, channeling Stewart Copeland!

[@chiphearn2431]

Damn, with a fretless bass no less! Just bad ass! The entire group giving it100%!

[@FransvandenBergeMuziekschuur]

Breathtaking indeed.

[@wdisneyw71]

Excellent...and traditional grip.....so refreshing to see these days.

[@cactuscanuck6802]

I've been a HUGE fan of The Police since the very beginning., and I gotta say this cover may be a tiny bit better than the original; if that's possible! I'm blown away! Vocals- great. Piano- note perfect. Bass- fabulous. Keyboard- thumbs up. And Drums... wow! Ryan did his homework using the traditional grip, also offering a note perfect performance while making sure to really drive the tempo by playing slightly in front of the band just like Copeland so often does. Bravo!!

[@EssTooBee]

I noticed the traditional grip too! Now I need to go back through prior videos to see if Ryan ever plays that way sometimes or if it was just for this. I'm sure it would be hard to match Copeland's sound with matched grip.

[@ischmidt]

Un-fracking-believable. Ryan's always solid on the drums, but this was next level! Plus Derrick on the awesome fretless bass, Austin was killer on the piano, and I don't know how many voices Vandee can do but they're all amazing.

[@ToBGrey]

At 3:36.. I've backed up a few times. I love how effortlessly the drummer transitions from the 'hi hat to the 'ride.. Reeaally cool to watch !

[@FransvandenBergeMuziekschuur]

Gotta give this one to the drummer. You NAILED IT. I mean that ain't easy. An 11 out of 10 for sure.....

[@calvinismistrue]

If the original artists had never covered these songs and LLB were the original recorded and released versions, they would be in the same chart topping sales as any of the other mega bands. Absolutely masterful covers with all they do.

[@WiggyWigmoreUK]

Being able to seamlessly pull off an amazing cover of a technically challenging song shows the talent you all have. Great job, once again!!!

[@bryanshapiro6977]

Nuances are captured perfectly.

[@thebarbecutioner6977]

Very good people, pat yourselves on the back. I actually thought that was Stewart on the skins for a minute. Totally accurate on the skins.

[@darrellswiger6335]

Just listened to this wonderful piece of music art. You guys are so fricken tight!!!! We are blessed with hearing your amazing talent...👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@Metragnome_Images]

Right in that Stewart Copeland pocket.... MAGIC!! :)

[@saturn110110]

My eyes brighten and my ears start dancing every time I see a new LLB video show up in my feed. Awesome!

[@bobgregoryvb]

This is AWESOME!!!! Look at that Vandee cutting the rug!!! LLB ROCKS!!!! See ya in September.

[@chrisnegele6875]

In the fall of 1981 I was in Germany and a couple of friends of mine met Stewart Copeland in our Hotel lobby and he invited them to their concert that night. It in turned into about 6 of us going with back stage passes. I remember they played this song and announced it as they're about to be released single off their new album Ghost in the machine. When I first heard it I thought I had heard it before just loved it from the first time. After the show Sting asked me what I thought of it and I said I thought I had heard it before and he said that's good. My only brush with rock and roll stars in my 65 years. Have to say they were all very nice to a bunch of early twenty something yanks in a foreign land and they deserved the fame and fortune that came their way over the next few years.

[@JD-md7ng]

What a Great way to start a Friday ❤

[@greyman003]

Congratulations, I loved this. The piano was recorded and placed in the mix so well. I was also impressed by how well the drums sounded, particularly the cymbals. You always record and mix the drums well. Thank you. Love your work.

[@cloverhillwood]

First off outstanding job on vocals, the breathing on that song is brutal. Now KUDOS to the rythm section that's as tight as a drummer and bassist can get, and fretless no doubt WOW!!! You guy never fail to impress an old musician with each video, very well done.

[@charlestredway8253]

Amazing how you guys find the right person to sing these songs.

[@briandonovan634]

It takes a special drummer to pull off what Stewart Copeland does on this song, but ryan kills it! What a beautiful rendition of such a classic!

[@JS-hu7pv]

Ok - I just made the holy crap face hearing Ryan hit those fills. This is a beastly song to get right on the drums, and I appreciate greatly the fact that it was performed to perfection.

[@CEstevam]

Dope! So magic! 🔥🔥🔥🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😎

[@jimphayre]

The Police could not play it any better... perfection!

[@boh7474]

Yeah, love this one! And I think it's a federal law that Ryan has to play traditional grip to cover Stewart Copeland. Excellent work!!

[@tremayne3]

Absolutely!

[@e4t662]

You guys got me. wrapped around your finger.

[@bigloaded8324]

Yes! Great cover. Nice hi-hat work from the drummer, incorporated the traditional grip like Stewart Copeland for the song. Outstanding performance ladies and gentlemen!

[@tremayne3]

Exactly!

[@dfloGEG]

Excellent - one of the greatest (and happiest) songs of all time. The singing is great but the drumming and keyboards are spot on. I love the keyboard flourishes at the end! GREAT JOB all!!

[@imspartacvs]

Excellent! Ive got such a greater appreciation for your covers after seeing the behind the scenes video. Thanks for sharing the music. -Matt-

[@craighermle7727]

Another song without autotune. It just isn't right

[@firepilot109]

Yo Ryan, Stewart should be very happy with that job man!! Not easy song! Great job.

[@johnsmith4900]

Thats a very hard song to cover. Good job. Props to the drummer.

[@Nicecalgarian]

😮💕Mike bro and LLB this is awesome. Well done capturing the energy and magic ✨ of this classic 💕🇨🇦🇺🇸💖

[@drummerman1964]

brilliant, once again ! But, I have to say I liked the older location better with its darker background. And, I think it´s about time to post and/or produce your videos in 4K !

[@steveg9088]

Wow this is awesome the singer did an awesome job. Y’all are awesome.

[@alexandreverdan1324]

Oh my Lord! Goosebumps all over my body. This must be the best Police cover I've ever seen/ heard!

[@foivosapostolos1211]

Very good cover of one of Stings most iconic songs.❤

[@robertlemoine3500]

Man ,the bassist wow !

[@vorovee3]

You guys never cease to amaze!!! Got to listen to two of the greatest cover bands tonight! LLB & then HSCC covering My Sweet Lord.

[@tokugawa12able]

My thoughts exactly.

[@carlmclelland7624]

JEEZ... Same Scene, Take 327.... You guys are Killin' me!! FANTASTIC! Thank you for the effort to bring pleasure to so many...............

[@sabin1329]

Awesome awesome.......👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@jensgrafe6430]

Brillant......very nice.👍👍😎💯Ryan on drums the finest.✌️

[@m444ss]

brilliant

[@philgriswold2133]

The Police are one of those bands that did a good bit of popular music, but were still very technical in their playing and presentation. You guys displayed that very well.

[@BeanieOakley]

The snare drum tuning and mix is spot on!!!!

[@ohcanada7838]

You took me back to University in the 70's. Lexington Lab is Synchronicity.

[@davelohrmann2607]

Truly amazing. These guys are the absolute best. 🎉

[@Prof_Jeff]

Wow!😲😎Everyone was spot on, but the piano, bass, drums, and lead vocals are other worldly!🤯

[@qbitsday3438]

Love ! 02-06-2023 9:52 pm

[@EvertHarley1]

Hey guys one word .......WHOW!!!

[@napagirl48]

LLB another hit for sure!! Vandee, Austin,Ryan and the LLB crew, you rocked this one out the park!! 💗🎶🎹 we wear our LLB merch proudly!!👍

[@Homesteading-A-Z]

That drummer even playing conventional grip just like Stewart Copeland! Another great video by LLB !❤

[@terryhowie3099]

Yet another great cover by the LLB!!

[@michaelharvey7613]

Magic Smile Machine strikes again. Go Ryan on drums. Just perfect again. I am all smiles thank you

[@oldbandguy]

AWESOME! Thank you for getting the "Stewart Copland tuning" of the snare drum (and the cross stick shots) correct!

[@brianhope5853]

Thank You. Amazing effort! Reproduction is spot on.

[@BKD70]

Once again, LLB does not disappoint! Shout out to Derrick on the FRETLESS bass!!

[@tshandy1]

I always catch your videos when they are released here on YT. I don't know which I appreciate more: the studied perfection of these covers or the true genius of the originals. Perhaps it's an equal appreciation.

[@resipsaloquitur854]

I'm not a huge Police fan, but man, once again the faithfulness of these recording to the original are just breathtaking. I agree with others that Ryan's drum work is remarkable, but so is the piano and Mike's vocal! I'd love to know what processors were used on the vocal. Superb job everyone...once more!

[@ricmig100]

great job. Sweetwater studio's Rock

[@samuski36]

I can tell this is a technically complicated song, but LLB nails it yet again! You guys Never dissapoint!

[@emersonchan]

Amazing !!! 👋👋👋👋👋

[@JerryDechant]

Everything THEY do is magic :)

[@zekrk504]

Another classic made even more so by my favorite bamd! Thanks!

[@Stanley_Furley]

Bold undertaking. Well done.

[@crevels02]

Even though this band does a fantastic job at recreating some of the best damn music to ever be heard by human ears, they always have their own sound and little nods to the original artist. I absolutely love this band and love the original but, I have a lot of your renditions on my every day listening playlist. Keep up the awesome work, you truly are professionals with your own creative spark.

[@blakegregory969]

One of the best songs you all have done. Beautifully done.

[@charlieharpman2107]

Heyyy Mike and everyone at LLB!!’ Another great cover. You all sound amazing!! Great vocals. So Benji also plays the keyboards, awesome. You guys nailed it!!! 🎶👍😀

[@wayneranson8763]

I seriously can't get my head around the fact that you guys only have 156k subs!.... you should have 1million plus!... great work as usual 🤘😎🤘

[@brunoerrakhli1901]

As usual an awesome cover. Don't stop for my great pleasure.

[@Augfordpdoggie]

watching again 5 days later.....the piano player fucking killed it

[@kpete9219]

Every little thing LLB does is magic! Thanks for MORE fun!

[@andrewphoa2004]

Absolutely amazing!

[@jffgtwn9114]

really love the precision of your covers. hard to imagine any other voice but Sting on this song, but you did a great job with it

[@MarkLudlow-r8f]

The BEST COVER of this song EVER… LOVE you guys!!!

[@larryhammond4555]

Correct tempo and everything. Well done!

[@FrehleyBurst9-1878]

FANTASTIC Cover! Vandy nails it like he always does! You guys have a stellar group of musicians that perform very true recreations of amazing songs! Let's hear some April Wine sessions! I know you guys can make those songs come alive again!

[@JoelChasse-pu7lg]

Fantastic as usual. “More Bass volume” please.

[@andreamills5852]

Awesome job guys and gals 🏆

[@madison203]

From the 2:30 point of the video this cover became yours! Amazing vocals, bass, drums, and guitar! Best sounding piano ever!

[@meinkapu9899]

The Lexington Lab Po Po 🙂... well done as usual.
