One of the best bands of all time!

[@jmedia1102]

Super, das hier wiederzusehen!

[@kevinfenton7043]

Always a live favourite

[@50j0urn3r]

hab ich damals (nach langen diskussionen mit meinen eltern) im fernsehen gesehen. das ganze wurde mit meinem kasettenrekorder (mono) aufgenommen. die kasette quittierte den dienst nach vielen jahren und tausenden von abspielvorgängen :>. super dass ich das jetzt sogar mit bild erleben darf. dankeeeeeee! 5*

[@EpicHobos]

gotta love the 80s

[@DrummerGrrrl]

@Chrisdrumz: What's really amazing is the sound he got out of those Tama drums. In some recent article I read he said that his drums weren't even top-of-the-line Tama drums for the first two albums but one step up from the budget line! Well, the octobans weren't cheap but the other drums weren't "all that". Stewart Copeland could play a set of cardboard boxes and some trash can lids and it would be pure genius!

[@turbocamps]

Energia pura!!!!!!!!

[@Darekmusic]

outstanding song

[@Ykertube]

Caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaraaaaaaaaaaaalhooooooooooooo a melhor versão que ja vi !!!

[@3third3eye3]

The drums are so awesome!!!

[@samucalencar1]

Lovin' this!

[@MsMoojay]

Saw Sting and his band perform this song last night in London-amazing!

[@Jack-ub7bp]

The Police are Stewart Copeland Band ;) one of the best drummer ever, still working for movie anc compositions.

[@cowfish13]

When this is the fourth result when looking up "Next to you", you know the world is fucked.

[@sting860]

es bueno este video tuyo es el mejor

[@diegobkn23]

I think I'm goin' INSAAAAANE! Best part of the video.

[@tokyostormwarning]

amo este tema :D

[@Mr4suns]

I would like to thank all those that put these fun live videos up for mine and other's enjoyment...Wish I could contribute more than just opinions, but I really do not know how to..I feel selfish for not adding to how much I enjoy the live shows/songs of these great bands....Eltroim, you haven't said anything that I even disagree with, since the only thing you said was that I'm nuts...At 46, I feel like it bubba....Cheers to your passion. I love The Police also, and this is a kick butt song!!

[@OwrKeeng]

I love the drums on this song.

[@fabioratimbum]

um luxo!

[@BIGROCKER620]

One of my fave Police...Wonder if they ever made a promotional vid for this song...This "Live" version rocks!!!!!!

[@vincenzocassara2497]

Incredible...

[@WhiteWolfDief]

I want to be next to them!!! Or at least among the audience - The atmosphere and energy are so fantastic in this!

[@Janicex]

This song is the beast on drums in Rock Band.

[@Dougskapt]

Thanks for the tip man. I'haven't realized that.

[@JohnnyBeane]

Love it!! JB

[@Nigelxman]

@Roxslinger Thanks mate for explaining that guy . :-) Cheers.

[@Chrisdrumz]

FACT: Stewart NEVER played the same song the same exact way. Aside from the basic structure, he performed every song a bit differently each night. He played by feel and feel alone. If he was tired he gave less,if he was pumped it would seem like his kit was going to simply collapse from all of the pressure he put on it. I myself play just like him,i'm just not even 1,000,000th the player he is!

[@kenjiwakisaka1009]

No one else can get close to it.

[@michelacortina_nilo]

Fantastici !!! Sting... e grande Stewart Copeland!!!

[@mfbusatoPG]

awesome

[@montrealerbacon]

lol impossible to understand unless you already know what he says at his solo but i love justlike that!!!

[@3third3eye3]

The golden days!!

[@antblue363]

B sides contain the material that makes the Police unique.

[@Dougskapt]

Infelizmente desse show não tenho. Encontrei apenas esse no Emule

[@Shineonyou66]

Nunca estuvieron mejor. Un temazo.-

[@turbocamps]

Mostri di bravura

[@aponcapone]

old scool police, the best!!!!!!!!!

[@90Nobodyknows]

That's Rock'n'Roll.

[@andysumer2009]

the police idol bery bery good song nex to you

[@ElissaJaneMastel]

sigh... they were such a cool band, one of the coolest... Sting and his friggin EGO ruined everything.... forever

[@stattic6]

actually it was "danke schon" (thank you very much) but nice catch :)

[@helenhoskin5560]

star

[@rome120]

Hey. Are you talking about the riff during the verse at ca. 2:15? It does sound similar, but that's because a lot of songs today are written around the same chord-progressions... I noticed it when I started playing music. It's really amazing how two (or more) songs, built around the same rhythm/chords can become so different, when you add details like melody, guitar tone, singer's vocal tone, effects, style of performance, etc... It's not plagiarism, though, it's hard to make something new!

[@JohnnyBeane]

Yeah it is. JB

[@tokyostormwarning]

yeah

[@keithsa41]

this is pretty raw...very garage band rock...

[@sastal]

It won't sound like this, I can assure you.

[@sauciest1]

deja vu!

[@johnJohnsonsonson]

The original is the best, but The Offspring do an awesome cover of this song on their Greatest Hits album.

[@lamecasuelas2]

@debiedog1 yes, he is the man

[@DarkEliteEric]

the police are the best

[@alihunter84]

perfectly played and sung punk track, if they just added the distortion most punk bands use to hide their total inept guitar skills then you'd be happy...jung jung jang

[@babykim9370]

great i heard dis from rock band

[@doubledragtap]

Muito bom! Vc tem mais algum vídeo desse show?

[@maggot1111666]

damn, these guys are jammin hard.

[@funkyinsomniac]

does anybody know wich bass sting uses here? thx

[@Nigelxman]

I completely understand what you mean Roxslinger and I promise you I meant no offence by (stupidly) calling him an idiot. I have no doubt Alan Bangs is a very cool person and is very well loved in Germany and elsewhere. I hope you'll forgive me for sounding like yet another ignorant American cause I'm actually not. :-) I just did not think before I typed which was dumb. Sorry and cheers from California.

[@DarthFizz]

a great song however at about 1:05 it seems like he screwed up

[@Mr4suns]

@Eltroim Hey my friend, since I guarantee that we both are serious fans of those 3 amazing guys in that awesome band, and it's been difficult over the years to replace them with a few others that affect me more as my fav, I just thought that in the two tours I saw, Ghost in the Machine and Sychronicity, that the sound sucked. Only with about half the songs did the acoustics do them justice. Yes, I saw them in 4 diff places.. Curious if you are referring to the reunion thing, not back in the day

[@jordigirofort5664]

The Offspring hace una versión de esto cojonuda..... Pero nada como esta!!!!!

[@ian2257]

AWESOME. Search "Venice Ahoy Taxman" worth a quick viewing.

[@drumdude46]

Yikes! love the police, but......wow. must note: Even Tempo's were obviously NOT the order of the day here! Lol! yeah, yeah, this might bring jeers, and i GET the whole, early 80's Punk thing. hey, don't get me wrong. HUGE FAN! but, just noticed, this tempo from when Stuart counted it off, takes off like a rocket! oh well. i know. that's LIVE for 'ya, huh? cheers!

[@bobjohnson5840]

fuckin' aye

[@nicolagarrard]

stewart copeland in his short shorts = hot!

[@alexgregory1427]

Tom Cruise speaks German ;)

[@vdLeo-je6os]

Yes he is. He is the " Count Stauffenberg " Cruise!

[@OblivionTeacher]

Stewart Copeland= WIN

[@jenriquec]

you are kiddin right?? is in GERMANY!!!

[@debiedog1]

Andy should have had his own band - he is better than Sting!!!

[@vennith]

uhhh... didn't they break up?

[@DrummerGAS]

The hi-hat sounds too loud.

[@Mr4suns]

@drumdude46 I love The Police. Always have, but consider them one of the worst bands to hear live that I've ever seen. Just my opinion comparing those 3, to many other great bands. Them only having three noise makers, might be a very obvious reason why they are so much better in the studio than live. Once again, just my two cents worth of an opinion.

[@lamecasuelas2]

i have never known who the hell is alan bangs

[@JudithJohnson]

Ah those pesky cops!

[@mookie2637]

This version is almost Dr Feelgood-ish.

[@DrummerGAS]

Noooooo ^^

[@Gmoreau99]

Man i love the police but they kinda suck live =( i still luvs em thou

[@muckstar23]

lol

[@pelwi]

OMFG dig up an atlas -.-

[@samalenco]

copeland power

[@lisheron01]

alan bangs uses too much bongs! he looks like high!!!

[@dunkafelic]

turn down your treble

[@xpesterdrivex]

they weren't into that at all..

[@Mr4suns]

Eltroim, yup. Maybe crazy, but not because I don't know what I'm talking about. I do not take offense. Would like to know who else you've seen. Genesis sounded amazing in '78, but shit until they started playing the art-rock stuff that they were known for pre '83 in abour '96. Rundgren sounded better 3 yrs previous shit arena. Roger Waters' Wall last December way better than '80s. Diff. equipment, but how do you expain Daniel Lanois giving U2 much more depth, chilly sound, 4 guys 3 yrs aft Sync?

[@generatrix999]

Bar band all the way. 'Loud' Paiste 'Rude' hi hats, they blow chunks. The bands timing SUCKS.

[@johnJohnsonsonson]

I like Offspring's version a bit better.

[@Janicex]

This song is the beast on drums in Rock Band.
