Rapper FIRST time REACTION to The Police - Walking On The Moon!

[@AG-OldmanBrick]

Roxanne, Don't Stand So Close To Me, King of Pain, Every Little Thing She Does is Magic, Spirits in the Material World...They have a great catalog of music.

[@apopka_sport_cards]

Sting is a great musician, Englishman in New York is a great Song or Fields Of Gold

[@therosabella67]

All great songs.

[@joelmastrobattisto422]

Absolutely 👆

[@truckrboat]

Definitely need to hit these songs!!

[@MichaelKing-de4jz]

Don't Stand so close to me is a banger!!!!!!

[@carson9359]

Absolutely! I want him to do Roxanne lol

[@theodoreritola7641]

[@Gems-of-Hope-Rocks]

Don't stand so Don't stand so Don't stand so close to me

[@chelseahaley8350]

The Police, and Sting on his own have mad bangers!! U should definitely check out more!!

[@mattlane4367]

Agreed. Sting even plays in my city of cairns every year. What a legend

[@brownsfamily24]

Stuart Copeland, the drummer, went on to do loads of Tv themes, The Equalizer is one that springs to mind. Sting just appeared live in the UK at 72, he killed it, new music out too!

[@kellyt5341]

Love my sick boi Ren covering him. 🤗

[@rbodee]

Drummer Stewart Copeland is one of the top percussionists of all time. Check out out "Wrapped Around Your Finger" live. The one that is focused on SC.

[@tibsky1396]

I grew up with Spyro the Dragon's games, Copeland composed the music for the first three.

[@michaeldunson2531]

Is he? I remember a interview he gave years ago and he said Sting thought he wasn't that good!

[@esselleanderic]

I agree. That video is a must.

[@jmc5876]

this will be a good one for Black P since the lyrics are indicative how much the occult influenced popular music with Sting paying homage to the Devil as if he is his Master.

[@Goddzi]

In the interview with Drumeo, Stewart said he hates Wrapped Around My Finger lol 😂 Which is probably why he played it so fast live, to get it over with sooner. But then, he played pretty fast live on nearly everything

[@kallsop2]

The rocket Stewart is drumming on is a Saturn V that launched the Apollo missions. The Police used a lot of Reggae influence in their music. Rick Beato does a great analysis of this song with interviews of Sting, Stewart Copeland, and Andy Summers. Check it out. They only put out five albums between 1978 and 1983 and all of them are great.

[@usa4freedom1]

One of my ALL TIME favorite bands and one of my favorite songs from them. Thank you for your reaction. I see so much of Sting’s sound in REN. The Police are my desert island band. 🌸🌸🌸

[@First_Command]

The Police are amazing. Great and deep catalog of hits. EVERY LITTLE THING SHE DOES IS MAGIC.

[@shanegooding4839]

Everything by the Police from Roxanne to Every Breath You Take is a banger.😊

[@stuBdoc]

An experiment in minimalist music. Almost nothing is being played, but it is so full and catchy. Percussion is immaculate.

[@jasonmgomez]

please do more from this band. you'll be shocked at how much you know without actually knowing you know.....

[@michaelakkerman407]

Some of the best hi-hat work. Tight, concise on beat. Just rhythmically powerful.

[@flyingardilla143]

Stuart's drumming in this is perfect.

[@jimcampbell4778]

So many good songs by the Police-you need to hit their catalog hard, man!!!!

[@ErinSantos-s2w]

The Police are an incredible band, so many great tunes. I was always partial to earlier Police like Can’t Stand Losing You, So Lonely,Roxanne. It’s all good. Enjoy!!

[@blakerh]

Stewart Copeland is a master of the hi-hat. You really hear it at the end of this song.

[@DanaStout72]

Not enough people talk about the brilliance of Stewart Copeland, his percussion added soooo much to this band.

[@Pensées_depuis_mon_balcon]

Pretty much everyone talks about it 😂, everywhere and all the time

[@Mcbuzz37]

Copeland was a buddy of Neil Peart of RUSH and they used to influence each other.

[@Goddzi]

I’m a bassist/guitarist, Stewart Copeland is one of my top three favourite drummers of all time. He is so creative and unique. Love his playing ❤

[@timinglismusic6707]

The reverb on that snare has always intrigued me. Masterful piece of mixing!

[@fortworth450]

Police every breath you take great song

[@MelissaCWilliams1]

I ❤❤❤❤❤❤. But today would be called a stalker song.😢

[@Mcbuzz37]

Wrapped Around your finger, Synchronicity II, and Invisible Sun by the Police. This band was on fire in the early 80's!

[@myntami]

Thanks for watching this one. I want familiar with this song but I love these guys! You really should watch more you've just scratched the surface. ❤

[@erickent3557]

Glad you dug the "vibe" because it def was a vibe track. Their blend of reggae and kinda new-wave/rock was unique.

[@SimonColey]

Legendary of my youth

[@wordygirlandco]

❤The Police are legendary! Two Brits and and an American. So many amazing songs. Sting wrote this and they filmed this at the Kennedy Space Center. I love Stewart Copeland drumming on the space craft. Sting is a musical genuis that has one of the music careers ever.

[@marcellemay7721]

Stewart Copeland has said many times that He's not a musician and the that he doesn't know an A note from a G note. He said, I just show up and I bang on sh@t! I'm paraphrasing here, but that's the gist of what he said. I always loved his drumming style and he was a big influence on me playing the drums. I saw them on the Synchronicity tour. His drum kit was tiny compared to a lot of other big name band drummers of the time. But he played the heck out of it.

[@zairilazmirzaiyadi4387]

Love your reactions, Black Pegasus❤

[@davebarlow6457]

Spirits in the material world , Every little thing she does is magic , Wrapped around your finger , Roxanne , Don't stand so close to me , King of pain .... , the list goes on ! I could almost guarantee you'd love every one , they are absolute bangers !!! Try to watch with the videos as you have with the first two , they are great as well.

[@actuariallurker9650]

S-Tier drum work...Stewart Copeland is considered one of the BEST rock drummers EVER. He has his own YT channel now that he scores movie soundtracks. You recently did a Rick Beato reaction. Beato interviewed Copeland and he said that almost EVERY album track on their records was from their first or second take. They were such masters that their first play through was platinum record quality. Sting on vocals and Bass, Andy Sommers on Guitar, Copeland on Drums. They released FIVE albums which went 1x Platinum, 1x Platinum, 2x Platinum, 3x Platinum, 8x Platinum....broke up due to fighting between Sting and Copeland beefing over money

[@Giggirl]

Yes you’re doing my band again, loved them since the beginning ❤🎶

[@jockeyladjockeylad8492]

As a pub band in London they shared rehearsal spaces, equipment & PA's with reggae bands & more than a little of that bled into their sound. The Clash occasionally drifted into reggae for the same reason.

[@stevehamilton8824]

The Police are incredible! A trio of very talented artists - Sting (bass/singer), Andy Summers (guitar) and Steward Copeland (Drums). So many great songs in their short 9 year life span of a career as a band. This song's bass riff is incredible. Their music is a mix of reggae, jazz, funk, punk, and world music. They mixed up a number of styles. The song is about love and the feeling of not having gravity. He floated home from her house. So simple and yet so perfect! The three were characters. You can see it in this video and in videos for songs like - "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic", "Roxanne" and "Don't Stand So Close to Me". The album SYNCHRONICITY was huge and then they broke up. Check out the song - "Synchronicity II".

[@daveking9393]

One of the most underrated drummers out there. What a great band. So many so many tunes. You've got a journey ahead of you for sure. So much fun!

[@marlew6629]

Ummm Stewart Copeland is not underrated. He is one of the most influential and respected drummers in rock

[@pcooper3559]

And much more than a drummer!!!

[@lynette.]

You might think that but Ginger Baker would disagree. As a composer too film works such as Wall Street and TV like Equaliser.

[@daveking9393]

@@marlew6629 I completely agree. I just think he deserves even more recognition. I didn't mean to belittle any of his accomplishments. I think he's fantastic and I wish he was held up there in the public's mind. I I know anybody in the know knows he's fantastic but it just is amazing that people don't rattle him off the top of their head as much as they should. And you're right or others are right. He's much more than just a drummer

[@user-or1ye3iz6d]

My favorite band ever. My favorite drummer ever (Stewart Copeland) 🔥🔥🔥🔥 PLEASE react to more from The Police, especially "EVERY LITTLE THING SHE'S DOES IS MAGIC"; as well as their lead singer Sting in his amazing solo career. Sting "FORTRESS AROUND YOUR HEART"; “FRAGILE" and "DESERT ROSE". 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@GianniGiorgini-j9z]

Police GREAT band STING Amazing vocalist......

[@andydurazo5337]

One song I notice no one is mentioning is, Murder by Number. Another great cut. Don’t Stand So Close to Me and Roxanne have two versions each. The second being a slower version that is just as good as the original!

[@barbaracline9064]

Message in a Bottle and Don’t Stand are favorites.

[@darkmatter6714]

75 million records sold - their catalogue is awesome

[@Jillyconjem]

Saw them on this tour with my Dad. He’d had a big band in the 1930s, and he loved the Police! Such amazing talent. “The Bed’s Too Big Without You” is a favorite of mine. For fun, you should check out some interviews with their summer, Stewart Copeland. He has amazing energy. 😂🤣

[@dennismoore3383]

I think that's a Saturn V rocket (or something similar) that launched astronauts into space so they could be "Walking On The Moon." But definitely NOT a space shuttle. LOL

[@ZacCostilla]

“Message in a Bottle” might be their best song, but “Walking on the Moon” will always be my favorite.

[@georgeg.5084]

*Fun fact: Sting played an acting role in the original 1980's movie Dune. Love the Police!

[@paintingmonkey]

It was fascinating listening to Stewart Copeland talking about his drumming influences and style on the recent Drumeo release - he talks about the Baladi style he was surrounded by growing up in Lebanon. So apparently while it meshes really well, rhythmically, with the reggae style the Police often use, the drumming influence comes from a completely different cultural background. Pretty neat :)

[@mapexzildjian6361]

Stewart Copeland (drummer) is largely responsible for how many of us (drummers) hear and play music. Carter beauford (drummer for Dave Matthews Band) said, he was trying to sound like Stewart.

[@JRcomments]

Best Police song right here.

[@actuariallurker9650]

Don't Stand So close to Me is about an underage High school girl who is a little too interested in her teacher told from the teacher's perspective and how he has to resist the temptation. Sting was a high school teacher before becoming a musician....

[@SarahFromCanada]

Love this one. Reminds me of when I was little and my dad would play it on the record player.

[@SuperDaveSo]

Fun Fact: Stewart Copeland, drummer for The Police performed the theme song for the Star Wars cartoon Droids, which chronicled the adventures of C3PO and R2-D2 between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. I had always thought it was Sting that sung it, but figured there was no way someone famous would have done it, but I was pretty close! The entire series is available for viewing on KZbin as of a couple weeks ago.

[@Renkk17]

Also check out - Duran Duran - Hungry like the Wolf - RIO Mr Big - To Be With You - Wild World

[@jonstiner3424]

Stewart Copeland's hi-hat work on this song is outstanding! And.... it's not a Space Shuttle, it's a Saturn V (5) rocket ( what they took to the moon).

[@wendyt7958]

Copelands percussion is killer

[@hopeklemann1]

🌸 and " don't stand so close to me " was an amazing song!!

[@criss6945]

"Don't Stand So Close To Me" >>>>> "Message In A Bottle"

[@MZ_RU_MBA02]

So many more songs by the Police you got to try. My personal favorite is “Every little thing she does is magic.” Many other great songs Roxanne, Don’t stand so close to me, Every breath you take, wrapped around your finger, king of pain, tea in Sahara,

[@raeann63]

YES MORE POLICE, please! every little thing she does is magic don't stand so close to me murder by numbers spirits in the material world king of pain sting also has an amazing solo career to dive into. but that's another day 😏

[@gurneyhalleck1127]

haha "Don't Stand So Close" will blow your mind

[@ettoreiannacito5407]

I was in second year university when I first heard The Police and immediately they became my favourite band. I bought Outlandos D’Amour right away in 1979. Saw they live many years later. Amazing band.

[@funwithmadness]

With your recent introduction to Rick Beato, you should check the interviews he did with each of these guys. All of them were pretty interesting in different ways. As for this song, I think Stewart Copeland's percussion in this sublime.

[@JeffreyTheTaylor]

Vids like this made the band total heartthrobs back in the day. Features some of Copeland’s most Copeland drum fills and accents.

[@JeffMartinEquinox]

They are at the NASA museum in Houston, TX - ( As in "Houston I have a problem") They have some of the original Saturn V rockets there that took astronauts to the moon several times in the late 60s, early 70s -- all with less computing power than what is in your telephone.

[@user-nz8vd7es7k]

Favorite band of all time! Sting my favorite solo artist of all time! Sting is a lyrical wordsmith! 🐝🎸

[@paul_e_hedral]

Sting has a lot of songs with reggae influence. Check out "Every Little Thing She Does" for another great example.

[@LibraAllWoman]

Not Sting. It's "The Police".

[@paul_e_hedral]

@@LibraAllWoman and who do you think wrote it? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Every_Little_Thing_She_Does_Is_Magic Go make me a sammich, woman.

[@perceptionsofreality]

This song is from their "Regatta de Blanc" album. So is "Message in a Bottle". That may be why you're getting those "reggae vibes".

[@dinastanford7779]

It's remarkable how many of the songs you are listening to, have been sampled. We oldies had GOOD music.

[@christinahilt2978]

I have a chance to go see Billy Joel and Sting live in February. So excited they’re coming here.

[@jeremiahzambrotta5580]

Your love of all these jams and experiencing the similarities between all types of music is awesome. It also blows my mind when people equally just hate on hip hop or rap not realizing all their favorite rockers are literally rapping. It's just a different musical groove. It's the universal language for a reason. Love the journey and thanks for sharing it with us

[@kenlawless7247]

Don't Stand So Close to Me is a great song.

[@alyarout]

i love this song this much.

[@Renkk17]

The Police - Roxanne - Every little thing she does is Magic - Every Breath you Take - King of Pain - Don't Stand so Close to Me....... You also need to check out the singer Sting on his own, many hits!

[@preachervideo]

My good friend, Cas Haley, covered this and won first runner up on the first America’s Got Talent.

[@rebeccabartley5061]

Sting is one of the best singer/song righter. I have all of his music downloaded to jam to do while driving.

[@trouty42]

Reggae is closer to what they're doing, yeah. Ska is rock with horns, trumpet, trombone, sax etc. Usually three or more. Some rock will have a sax or a trumpet but still might not be ska, ska has a bunch of horns and is usually really upbeat and fun.

[@JimKipp-hw7qt]

Roxanne, don't stand, alien, every breath you take reaction all bangers

[@melissawood1506]

Sting, Rod Stewart, and Bryant Adams did one together, I think it was All For Love

[@ms.lisamarie82]

❤❤❤❤❤ omg... I loved that song.. wasnt it on the Robinhood sound track.

[@chelseahaley8350]

I love that song, too!! Definitely takes me back to watching the movie The Three Musketeers as a kid!!

[@ChrisMehl-h2z]

Synchronicity 2. And amazing song, would love your reaction!

[@FinallyTuned]

Their song “Synchronicity II” is about a middle-aged dad.

[@KarlKonrad-w9z]

Great show again. Cool u be honest about , what u miss or could be miss, its easy to say i know a lot about music/ groups or artist. Its so f.... big , u can teach us about ur music knowledge, u know, stuff, i ´ve never heard , so common everybody, we r all students of the music. Everybody can learn or get intodruce by new exciting music. I appreciate ur show, 40 years 4ever ;), LG , cu

[@leedstown]

The lead singer "sting" was a teacher before becoming famous,, I like his solo songs "shape of my heart" and "fields of gold" are worth watching

[@Harleybuc01]

definitely need to check out Roxanne, synchronicity II ,and more. In the background of this video was the Saturn 5 rocket with 5 main engines. This is the rocket that took us to the moon. The aircraft they get out of is a Piper Navajo, Chieftain.

[@chassetterfield9559]

Sting [Gordon Sumner ], the bassist, singer & principal lyricist had been a teacher before becoming a full time musician. 'Don't Stand So Close to Me ' is about the 'problems' of a young male teacher, when the girls in his class basically start hitting on him. He seems to be a good boy, but does manage to shoehorn 'Nabokov [ author of 'Lolita' ] into the lyrics.

[@subwaygoddess1]

If you want to hear more of their reggae best, I'd go to "The Bed's Too Big Without You" next. My favorite Police song is "Spirits In the Material World." They've got loads of great songs ✌️🎶

[@johnlaujensen5022]

two extraordinary musicisions and a brilliant song writer - doesn't get much better than Walking on the moon - maybe "Tea in the Sahara with you"

[@FinallyTuned]

Stuart Copeland, the drunmer, recenlty did a great appearance on the Drumeo KZbin channel with great stories about the band.

[@mr.knowitall6440]

This song was before the Space Shuttle... 🧐 That's a Saturn V "Moon Rocket". 🚀

[@alanberesford7900]

This video was shot before the first space shuttle was built, what he is drumming on is a rocket section.

[@mr.knowitall6440]

Try "Next to You", from their first album. 🔥😎

[@Giggirl]

You’ll definitely know “Every Breath You Take” which is one of their best selling songs 🎶❤️

[@anthonyglass7419]

Your reaction was extremely familiar....It took me back to having the first time i heard this song 40 years ago and had the same sway and grin...

[@jorhanson8583]

We saw The Police at The Cow Palace in San Francisco. This song was memorable.

[@snoodlegirl1794]

Police. Police big hit every breath u take

[@landiahillfarm6590]

Amazing band. So many great songs. This one is special for me; fell head over heals for a girl and after weeks of "woo'ing" we finally went out on a date after which I got a passionate kiss and "that look". I literally staggered my way to my car, not because I was drunk or on drugs, but hit square between the eyes with love. Driving home this song came on the radio and I got it, I too was walking on the moon. I was so high in love I felt like I was weightless, like "my feet dont touch the ground". That singular moment will live with me forever. Sadly, she and I were not to be but happily I was able to meet the woman who didn't steal my heart but embrace it and keep it safe, 37 years on now and she is still here by my side. Life is like that sometimes.

[@fortworth450]

Love Sting my favorite never saw this video thanks

[@pkmadsen2850]

The Police create SPACE in their music with very few instruments and vocals.

[@deepthrow-jn8ij]

Synchronicity 2 my favourite Song

[@mauraleib]

That was a very fun music video ❤

[@inspiredfunkmark]

One of my favourite bands - so much for you to explore :) great reaction!!

[@kevinm3428]

That’s a Saturn 5 rocket; it’s massive! Early Police were so original and had a unique sound. React to their first hit De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da.

[@hopeklemann1]

🌸 and it blows my mind sting is 73 this year

[@LynnThompsonAuthor]

This was one of their songs that caused me to buy the entire album! (Back in the days when albums were on LP records.) I've always thought of this as straight-up reggae; ska is usually faster and has the horns added. But I'm far from an expert, so who knows? Sooooo many great Police songs you haven't yet heard! "Don't Stand So Close to Me" is catchy and tells an unsavory story. The Police's very first album was Outlandos d'Amour and it had the songs "Roxanne", "So Lonely", and "Can't Stand Losing You" on it. The Regatta de Blanc album yielded "Message in a Bottle" and this little gem. Several good songs on Zenyatta Mondata: "De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da", "Canary in a Coalmine", "Driven to Tears", "When the World is Running Down", and "Bombs Away". The Synchronicity album was full of hits and great songs: the title song and "Synchronicity II" (which I like better than the title one; very interesting lyrics), "Every Breath You Take", "King of Pain" and "Wrapped Around Your Finger" were all on that album. By the time their Ghost in the Machine album came out, they were cranking out hit after hit. "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic", "Spirits in the Material World", "Invisible Sun", "Demolition Man", and "Rehumanize Yourself" are all on that one.

[@MarkChappell1]

The drumming is other worldly.

[@TheColdrush22]

Whoop! Whoop! That's the sound of The Police!
