Shaggy’s rhythm is impeccable. Sting’s voice and groove on that bass are butter. Dominic’s playing is perfectly in pocket and his dynamics are unbelievable. The backup singers are a beautiful base for everything else and contribute so much without overtaking anything. The mixing is perfect and the recording engineer is a genius. This is the perfect storm!

He played so cleanly, with such touch, and made it look easy. I will say the biggest surprise was my newfound respect for Shaggy. The rhythm of his phrasing was so good and crisp.

Its on KZbin but its improved and not as satisfying as you'd hope. Mr. Bombastic on the other hand..

[@ronaldthemighty4809]

I stopped by to see the odd combination. How could this work? After the first song, I realized I wanted more! And they delivered in every way. Brilliant, and yet simple. Everyone in that small group was a joy to hear! Fantastic!

[@JacksonCollins21]

They actually have a Christmas album that recently dropped! I recommend listening to all of their colabs

[@pavlemicic4135]

Dominic Miller always plays just as much as he should. Certified beast, never tries to show how good he is

[@Whitewallsessions]

Those chord shapes speak for themselves!

Le Solo du "CHORISTE" à 13'43'' est juste un incroyable exploit ! Énorme ! Ravie de te connaître ! ❤🧡💛💚💙💜 Bravissimo You are Gorgeous ! Coline 🌺

Sting is looking and sounding more beautiful as time goes by! So lovely.

[@allisgrace1313]

I do agree...he just better all the way around as he ages!

[@Victor-xk7dv]

So chill man, what a nice mix of voices, I can't ever imagine Shaggy and Sting can sound so good together

[@renoshalex]

Why didn't I know I wanted this crossover?! Sting, Shaggy and NPR!

Could you imagine an evening with this group enjoying just jamming to whatever comes to mind. That would be my happy place.

[@tdsims1963]

Thanks. I was just thinking, "Man, can you imagine sitting on the beach and this is the band onstage?"

[@stefenhainbuch2017]

Who would have thought that Shaggy and Sting would make such a great pairing.

[@luise8701]

There was a lot of reggae influence in The Police. Specially in their bass lines. When sting found shaggy he must have felt at home.

[@gregfaircloth6440]

Easy to see

[@jordanowens3760]

Sting is literally reggae influenced, it only makes sense

[@marleyex2695]

It's fits perfectly. I'm glad it happened..😊

[@elsagreen1476]

2 minutes into this set I realized my cheeks hurt because I'd been smiling the whole time. This unlikely collaboration has so much joy and warmth it's amazing. Lovely. Thank you. Edit: it's 5 years later, I realise now that they have worked together a lot before which makes sense!

Exact same reaction!

I get that sometimes, Dexty dachshund on Instagram does that too when I scroll too long

[@frenchcoconut]

How is that an unlikely collaboration? Shaggy and Sting have been performing and touring together fon quite some time now

[@Wiley_Coyote]

Not totally unlikely, given that Sting has always done some amount of Reggae.

[@smoothie788]

The background singers are awesome too. Sing brother.

Shaggy's Early Morning Reggae-Style" and Sting's smile right after is something I didn't know I needed (0.29). This duo breathes life into my soul. :)
