As with every Police song to which you react, I will, again, suggest 'Don't Stand So Close to Me.' I believe the fact that both of you are teachers will make you appreciate the song.

[@Jeflar70]

Agreed but make sure you do the 1980 original, and not the overproduced ‘86 remake they did.

[@emmitstewart1921]

You might also be interested to know that Sting actually started off as a school teacher.

[@jasonsumner8482]

One of the greatest bands of all time! All 3 are incredible musicians and their music was completely unique and original. Sting is one of the best lyricists of the last 50 years.

[@wiltchamberlainisthegoat13]

This takes me back to high school in 1980 and hearing this GREAT song for the first time….while sitting in the school library. Someone has their Sony Walkman with them if I remember right. Love it! ❤

[@gennyreese420]

OMG you guys trying to figure out the name, made my day! The Police are so iconic...Amber, I think I've heard you say that you love the show Friends, there's an episode where Phoebe expresses her love of the police, she totally fangirls out when she finds out that Ross's kid Ben goes to the same school as Stings kid, she pretends to be his mom so she can meet him, it's a whole Fiasco LOL💕✌

[@danlrusso]

"When the World Is Running Down, You Make The Best Of What's Still Around" is one of my favorite Police tunes.

[@rhphotocdn]

Sting, Stewart Copland and Andy Summers - THE POLICE!!! Amazing Amazing band, i've seen them twice and would gladly see them again if still together. Synchronicity II & Don't Stand So Close to Me, Highly Suggested!!

[@jangoliocloney3441]

This was one of those songs that made me realize that the 80s were gonna be a whole different ballgame. Another one was "Turning Japanese" by The Vapors. 1980 was exciting and intriguing.

[@xzonia1]

I love that song too 😁

[@surlechapeau]

I always put Video Killed The Radio Star and She Blinded Me With Science in that same category. So weird at the time but so addicting.

You guys would really like “canary in a coal mine”, “synchronicity I” and “Synchronicity Ii”. Was so glad to catch these guys on their farewell tour in 2007!

[@Whitebrowpriest]

This is a fun song to listen too! Sting (lead singer) I loved one of his solo songs, "We'll Be Together" (1987).

[@rogerpatton2242]

One of my favorite Police songs.

[@markfadness9204]

"De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da" was the 3rd Police single to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 and their 1st single to peak in the Top 10 (#10) in 1980. I was pretty sure that "Roxanne" must have reached the Top 10, but it only peaked @ #32 in 1979. Also, I assumed that the 2nd single "Message in a Bottle" was a hit but it peaked @ #74.

[@bookhouseboy280]

Roxanne and Message in a Bottle were hits outside the U.S. The former peaked at #12 in the UK and the latter reached #1 in the UK. It was #2 in Canada but that's before the band's huge stateside success.

[@TahoeNevada]

Roxanne only became a “hit” in the States after Eddie Murphy sang it in the first 48 Hours movie.

[@krishnamurtiism]

Remember it well, especially when it was played on Top Of The Pops.

[@sanzoftatooine]

This has always been one of my faves from The Police. A fun song with a deep message. Please check out "Canary in a Coalmine," "Bombs Away," & "Invisible Sun." P.S. I'd never seen this video, but I'm surprised Sting didn't just let Stewart just go tumblin' down the hill.

[@bbb462cid]

Stewart would have punched Gordon in the nose

[@bookhouseboy280]

Sting said the truth is that they loved each other too much.

[@user-uh2xg1vc2o]

Yes, listen to Canary in a coal mine 😂. And I love how you call her Mom, so sweet!

[@alleykeosheyan4779]

Second the emotion for "Canary In A Coal Mine" 🤩 I'd never seen this video either, I'm surprised they shot it in the snow, temperature extremes are SO bad for guitars!

[@joelhenry5489]

Canary in a Coalmine is their most underrated song.

[@AmericanShia786]

Yep, the Police were pretty much my favorite band back in the day. I saw them headlining a concert with Bow Wow Wow and Jah Wobble on the same bill. Invisible Sun, King of Pain, Tea in the Sahara, Walking on the Moon were some of my very favorite Police sounds

[@user-or1ye3iz6d]

The Police "DON'T STAND SO CLOSE TO ME" 🔥🔥🔥

[@traciejewett1388]

A little bit of a story song. A very literate reference in it that I had to look up the first time I heard it.

[@danw3735]

[@grievousangelic]

From the album "Zenyatta Mondatta," which are nonsense, made-up words themselves. The Police are completely awesome. If you want another great song by solo Sting, do "Fortress Around Your Heart." OMG. One of his very, very best. Love the reaction, as always. Peace!

[@scottvanhille5688]

Hey guys, thanks again for doing another request. This was a fun song. I do suggest "Synchronicity I" and "Synchronicity II" plus "So Lonely" "Can't Stand Losing You" "Bring On The Night" "One World (Not Three)" "Regatta De Blanc" "Driven To Tears" "The Bed's Too Big Without You" "Tea In The Sahara" "When The World Is Running Down, You Make The Best Of What's Still Around" and for a Sting solo, I suggest "Fortress Around Your Heart."

[@Johnny_Socko]

EVERY one of those is an absolute treasure, and I think J & Amber would be happy with any of them. Makes you realize what an incredible catalog The Police & Sting have. And your list is just scratching the surface!

[@Giveittome2012]

Great reaction again, Jay and Amber :) Leave it to The Police to purposely use gibberish for a song title ... and have it land on Billboard as a Top 20 hit. Their diversity was incredible. I agree with some others that Syncronicity II would be a great next reaction for them. It's unique ... of course ... and has a moody, dark feel.

[@alleykeosheyan4779]

YESSSSSSSSSS!

[@billmittenzwey3021]

absolutely!!!! it never got the airplay of king of pain or wrapped around your finger, but it was always one of my favorites

[@zarbnet]

Synchronicity II rocks! Used to play that to death back in the day.

[@stevedahlberg8680]

This got so popular and people did love dancing to it. Unbelievably catchy. I saw them in concert around the age of 19 and it really was a great show. I bought three of their albums in a row as they came out when they were really big, and they all have great stuff on them. For some reason though, my favorite Police song still remains, Roxanne.

[@vkaPAUL]

Can't say it without singing it!!! 😂

[@t.a.k.palfrey3882]

Sting's 1985 song, "Russians" is particularly poignant in the context of today's conflicts. As young parents and as teachers, I think you'd really enjoy this recording.

Just thought of a quirky, fun little song that could only have been a hit in the 90’s. The nonsensical title of this one reminded me of it…. The band is Crash Test Dummies and the song is “Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm”. You’ll marvel over the voice.

[@jerryhelm7848]

The first time I saw this band I was working for a sound rental company out of Cincy and we were hired to do their gig at a bar called Bailiwicks in Kettering. They were promoting their first album, and were pulling their gear in a trailer behind a van they were traveling in. I had no idea who they were and expected some power trio like ZZ-Top. I have never been so blown away by anyone in over 59 years in the business. Awesome is too weak a word. Cathartic? at least that!

[@user-or1ye3iz6d]

Stewart ( the drummer) was always filming with his Super 8 camera in the early days. He made a compilation of his movies into a film about 15 years ago. It's very entertaining.

Neil Finn (lead singer of Crowded House/Split Ends and current member of Fleetwood Mac) told a story of when Sting walked backstage at a Crowded House concert some years ago and serenaded Neil by singing the lines "Hey now, hey now," (from the song Don't Dream It's Over) Thinking he was returning the compliment, Neil then proceeded to sing De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da back to Sting. However, Sting took it the wrong way and thus Neil had succeeded in inadvertantly offending him 😆

The song lyrics literally describe the philosophy behind the Dada-ist movement in art and theater, from early 1900s to mid 1920s in Europe and New York.

[@wuttwutt9391]

They got the words while touring in Germany. The stage manager didn't speak English and the band didn't speak German. Stage manager finally pointed at the members and said, du, du. Da, da, da". "Du" is "you" and "da" is "there".

[@Robbyrool]

Love this song!!! The music is top notch! The title is a reference to being tongue tied. The Police often have clever, deep lyrics or literary references. Sting had been an English teacher before. Which adds meaning to Don’t stand so close to me, about a teacher. Listen to Don’t stand so close to me. Then listen to the monster hit Money for nothing by Dire Straits. It dominated the radio for months. Notice the vocal by Sting. Notice that “I want my MTV” takes the melody from “Don’t stand so close to me”. I wished I had seen them live while they were together. So when they had a reunion tour, it was a dream come true, and I jumped on the tickets even tho they were $250 each. Their show was one of the best things i have ever seen.

[@paulwalker9421]

Well you heard Ob La Di Ob La Da by the Beatles, now the Police De DO DO DO, De Da Da Da great songs and talent..

[@timsterrockstar]

According to lead singer Sting, the song is about the attraction that people have to simple songs.[2] Sting later criticised those who labelled the lyrics of the song as "baby talk," claiming that the song was grossly misunderstood.[2] He evaluated, "The lyrics are about banality, about the abuse of words," saying that "the lyrics have an internal logic."[2] I was trying to make an intellectual point about how the simple can be so powerful. Why are our favourite songs 'Da Doo Ron Ron' and 'Do Wah Diddy Diddy'? In the song, I tried to address that issue. But everyone said, 'This is bullshit, child's play.' No one listened to the lyrics. Listen to the lyrics. I'm going to remake it again and put more emphasis on what I was talking about. - Sting, Rolling Stone, 2/1988[2] Sting also said that "I was trying to say something which was really quite difficult - that people like politicians, like myself even, use words to manipulate people, and that you should be very careful.”[3] The phrase "De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da" supposedly was made up by Sting's son. Sting said of this, "In fact, my son came up with it. I've never paid him - so that's another possible lawsuit. He writes songs himself these days. He's got a lot of self-confidence - I don't know where from."[2] Its B-side, "A Sermon," was originally written by Stewart Copeland in 1977 and is a parable about a band ruthlessly making it to the top. Copeland played most of the guitar as well, including the intro riff, while Andy Summers can be heard in the middle.[4] Sting said of the song, "It's arrogant, but Stewart is good at being arrogant in a funny way - as in that Klark Kent line about 'If you don't like me, you can suck my socks'."[2] In the US version of the single, "De Do Do Do De Da Da Da" was paired with "Friends", a composition by Andy Summers. "De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da" was released as the follow-up single to "Don't Stand So Close to Me" in Britain, and was released as the debut single from Zenyatta Mondatta in America. Upon its release, the single became a top ten hit in the United Kingdom and the United States (their first in said country), reaching No. 5 on the UK Singles Chart[5] and No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. In addition to its English-language release, both a Spanish-language and Japanese-language version of the song were recorded and released in their respective markets in early 1981. Actual 45 rpm copies are rare.[citation needed] Record World said that "Sting's affecting vocals and a percussion-clad rhythm track have created retail/radio reaction that's strictly big business."[6] The cover was designed by Hipgnosis and uses the title of the song to juxtapose an image of the band with one of a woman's hand reaching out to a telephone to call the police. The song was prominently featured in the 1982 film The Last American Virgin and on its soundtrack. It also appeared in the pilot episode of the medical drama St. Elsewhere.

[@esmeraldapooner751]

They were very creative indeed!! They went out of their way to be unique. and colored outside of the box. They surely did not want to be a cookie cutter 80's group.

[@gtrgar4561]

Sting attributed the 'De Do Do Do ...' to his son. The line harkens back songs like "Da Do Ron Ron" recorded in 1963 by the Crystals and "Do Wah Diddy Diddy" recorded in 1963 by the Exciters. Both those songs would be fun for you to react to. You could use the "Da Do Ron Ron" for Female Friday as the Crystals are a female pop quartet. Cheers! 🎸😎
