The Police - One World (Not 3)| REACTION

[@modern_memory]

This drum track is probably my favourite musician performance in rock.

[@jaquestraw1]

Absolutely in my top 5 drummers

[@TBonzzz]

The masterful Stewart Copeland behind the kit. 🥁 You can hear jazz, rock and yes, reggae styles in his syncopated, snare driven rhythms and at times, he’s using only the high hat and base drum to keep that itchy groove and beat. He was also heavily influenced by Mitch Mitchell of the Jimi Hendrix Experience, which you can also hear in his loose style of playing. Amazing drummer that gave The Police their awesome, unique sound.

[@79BlackRose]

Stuart, Sting & Andy - what a trio! This is a superb album. I was blown away when I bought it new. Still sounds fresh today.

[@CJ-Fischer]

Was gonna comment but you said it all. Solid comment!

[@georgetaxi8179]

Please do Walking on the Moon next. Stewart Copeland's high hat work on that tune is legendary!

[@midnitelion5238]

That angry yet so rhythmic drumming is perfect for this song. The bassline is very comforting and relaxing. Awesome!

[@mariaassante620]

Secret journey from this album Is magical

[@jons3808]

This is one of my favorite songs and drum performances. The groove Stewart is throwing down has so much movement, illustrating why he’s one of the greatest of all time. Pure genius! Thank you for reacting to this one.

[@SouthTexasRocker1]

Great deep cut. Thanks for diggin' deep to react to these gems.

[@owenhershey13]

Agreed!

[@brandonboucher7090]

Heck yeah…those fills are dope!!! He switches between putting the kick on the 1 and the 3 and the 2 and the 4 effortlessly

[@AirplayBeats]

So smooth with the fills

[@jimmoore8951]

Stewart did things no rock drummer ever did... every song was a master class

[@j_karma]

And unrepeatable. Copeland said he never played anything the same way twice.

[@ginapurpura1182]

Great reaction! Keep listening to The Police - As others have said Walking on the Moon is an amazing song. I am also a big fan of their album Zenyatta Mondatta!

[@paxonearth]

Man, I dig Sting's bass playing.

[@melvinwomack3717]

Stewart Copeland is a madman😅 2:04

[@jml-rj5re]

Copeland is an elite drummer because he is an elite percussionist. His use of space, timing, and fills is impeccable. It is a Masterclass.

[@Jude_196]

FACTS!!!

[@timmismith8978]

Ladies and gentleman , the legendary Stewart Copeland!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rhythm as good as it gets!!!!!!

[@artharrison9586]

One of the things I really appreciate about your channel is that you don’t just run through the major hits of the various artists (to mine clicks and stats for the algorithms) but you also do deep dives into the music that other channels completely miss. I don’t know if I’ve ever noticed this tune in the various listens I’ve heard of this album over the years but I have now!

[@AirplayBeats]

Thanks for rocking with us my friend!!

[@randyallaben9900]

More Police! You guys are the best in the biz. Fantastic variety of excellent songs!

[@SebsBeenHere]

The snare in this song is bananas

[@MichaelBrown-x1q]

3 piece band. Sting(vocals and bass) Andy Summers( Guitar) and Stewart Copeland(drums and percussion). Stewart is a genius! He is in all the drummers magazines and every drummer knows about him!!!!!

[@hampyonce]

They had a horn section on the tour and it was on of the best shows I've ever attended. I saw the next tour in multiple venues. Stewart Copeland is a drumgod.

[@dcg4mn]

Omg what a killer show and memory that had to be. I saw a lot of great bands in their prime but two I’ve been kicking myself permanently 😆 HOW TF did I never see the Police, and Bowie, live??? 😱😫😭

[@patriciastewart9711]

Got to see them live at the Forum in LA when this album came out-it was beyond fantastic, and U2 was their opening act!!

[@membysteph64]

Great reaction gentleman. Can’t do wrong with anything by the police. Keep up the great work love what you are doing.

[@krob-sn7ek]

Stewart Copeland is amazing!! One of my faves! Thanks guys! I saw them live in Biloxi,MS. on the Synchronicity Tour !! Boom, that shit was good !!

[@blakerbnsn]

Saw them during their last tour back in 2007. it was all about the music and it was incredible. Good choice!

[@fletcherchristian2254]

Great album great song. Rehumanize yourself is my favorite on the album...but every song is a gem.

[@jakeenan]

The amazing Mr Copeland said: we're playing this F****d-up groove in my Time. It must've driven Sting nuts. 😅 But it's one of the main reasons The Police songs have this timeless snap and bounce to them.

[@laurabrevitz3944]

Stewart Copeland and Fergal Lawler (the Cranberries) are my favorite drummers, with a hat tip to Clem Burke. Magnificent.

[@danmayberry1185]

The Caribbean influence on British music is frigging huge.

[@alrivers2297]

Besides their many hits, they have many great deep cuts. All 5 of their albums are 🔥

[@TeresaMount-t9o]

A very upbeat song , love the drummer. Thank you both .

[@darrylbennett4297]

My dudes Amazing choice, deep cut! Stewart’s snare drum sounds like it’s inside your head! Try demolition man from this album

[@josephmoodler2711]

Stewart Copeland went on tour with a group of talented musicians after the Police disbanded. I was fortunate enough to catch one of the shows on this tour. I think they covered about every genre of music during the show. Stewart Copeland's drumming was so captivating to watch.

[@josephmoodler2711]

@@Rock_Snob - Thank you ! I couldn't remember the name of the group. I really enjoyed Stanley Clarke on bass as well.

[@angelagraves865]

Bring On the Night is the first live album by Sting recorded over the course of several live shows in 1985 and released in 1986. He hired some excellent jazz musicians to play Police and Sting songs, and this song was blended with Love is the Seventh Wave. It's a great album that I highly recommend.

[@CuriousGeorge1111]

I'm glad you noticed the drumming. Stuart Copeland is rightly renouned.

[@heathcliff8624]

The Copeland interview with Rick Beato was pretty good.

[@jaquestraw1]

Outstanding. Andy & Sting as well 👍

[@mr.snicker-doodles7081]

YES!! Super good...the best of the three guys from the Po-po!!

[@jenniferfoster1692]

Yes, it was very good. Andy Summers' interview was good, too. Sting's was good but he's just got that little bit of stand-offishness or somethig that makes him a little less likeable 🤣

[@dancarter482]

@@jenniferfoster1692 Yeah, he's really hard work. Without the other two his career would have been VERY different!

[@jenniferfoster1692]

Stewart Copeland is the drummer that all other professional drummers idolize. He's American (with Scottish mom) but his dad was a big guy in the CIA & they moved to Egypt when he was a baby, then later to Beirut. As a teen they moved to London, which is where he met the other Police members, who are British. Not surprising he was influenced by some Middle Eastern music & drum styles. He's also fluent in Arabic.

[@billadkins5150]

Great album. Stewart Copeland is a beast.

[@christopherhuot2826]

Gr8 album, I saw this concert in 81, Ghost in the machine tour. AWESOME SHOW, I Wish they didn't break up so soon 😅😊

[@johncagnettajr344]

From my favorite Police album , Ghost In The Machine. All good stuff

[@Teraxx23]

Not a single bad track on this one gents, hope you do em all!

[@4yules]

voices inside my head....

[@lindaulloa4786]

Stewart Copeland is an amazing drummer. You need to listen to the song Spirits in a Material World from this same album. Great song!!

[@mr.snicker-doodles7081]

Not a drummer but I always loved the TONE of Copelands drums! Just the way he has them tuned or something!?? And it seems like he hits SO hard.

[@j_karma]

You need to watch Rick Beato's interview with Stewart Copeland. He talks about tuning his drums super high to cut through. His interviews with Sting and Andy are great, too...

[@mr.snicker-doodles7081]

@@j_karma Yep I've seen it! I wanna be Stewart when I grow up..haa

[@robertkees6048]

One of the best shows I've ever seen were The Police on their Ghost In The Machine Tour, man WOW. Nassau Coliseum Long Island NY, the last show of the tour before then went back to England. I only know that because Sting told us so. There was also a horn section with them, what a show. Stewart Copeland is a monster musician.

[@waldo216]

Very underrated album. A lot of great songs.

[@AjaxCaper]

You said it. That album was different. It was such a fresh sound at the time.

[@woodyheywood8792]

As usual y'all are cranking on all cylinders! Great reaction! The 2nd side of "Ghost in the Machine" has some unreal tracks which really didn't get a lot of airtime...sort of a shame but check it out when get a minute.

[@ericm8025]

Stewart Copeland is an amazing drummer and one of the best. He was influenced by sounds of the Middle East, Africa and the Caribbean (and definitely a reggae sound)

[@joshuadeshaies7266]

Guys remember, Stuart Copeland is not a drummer, he is a true percussionist!! Besides Rush, these guys are the next greatest 3 member band in history. IMO. THX GUYS.

[@jons3808]

Amen to that! Neil (and Rush) were actually influenced by Stewart (and the Police).

[@Thomas-aka-TomD]

Absolute fire! Thanks for this one. I hope you dig into Sting's solo work, especially with Branford Marsalis. As always, love the energy fellas....

[@melvinwomack3717]

I know I always say this but there is something about A&M RECORDS sound from the 60s to the early 80s production is 🔥

[@Krust_Acean]

Copeland grew up partly in Lebanon and recognized the rhythmic similarities to Jamaican music. Also, his father was a founding member of the CIA

[@joescott8877]

For lyricist Sting, this is an optimistic song, lol. For his pessimistic side regarding the state of the world, try "Driven to Tears." "Protest is futile...too many cameras and not enough food, this is what we've seen...driven to tears..." Brutal. But, my God: Brilliant!

[@vincenzocassara2497]

Sting, reggae bass and one two three superb voices, Stewart Copeland oh my God, Andy Summers beat guitar. The Police

[@Free-pw1xg]

Btw, the album cover is an LED pic of each of the 3 band members with Sting in the middle. Keep rocking, Gentlemen!!

[@bsmcgillacutty1754]

Great album. "Darkness" is my favorite though. Check that out.

[@adamdodgshon638]

Ghost In The Machine is my favourite Police album. It has the playfulness of their earlier work but also some very serious and deep songs. Invisible Sun is so powerful. Darkness is relaxing musically but a little more jarring lyrically. I don’t know a bad Police song, but I know plenty of great ones.

[@owlcu]

That drumming is absolutely airtight, so crisp it sounds like the drums might pop at every hit. I think the only other drummer who could play this song and make it sound close to being right is Vinnie Colaiuta.

[@samirait-kaci-gf3bn]

Nope

[@susiedawson3349]

One world that needs to coexist in peace regardless of race, religion, ideology, and be humanist. Only people can help or hurt other people. .

[@ritar6997]

I would love you to react to 《So lonely》, but the longer version... my favourite song from The Police, can't sit still whenever I hear it ❤. Greatings from Austria, love your channel

[@goldenageofdinosaurs7192]

That first album may not be as musically complicated as some of their later work, but it’s still my favorite, by a good margin.

[@cptight88]

I got this album for Christmas in high school. I was soooooo happy.

[@lawrenceanthony7117]

Solo Sting is a journey

[@eltonjah5669]

May seem a million miles away, but it gets a little closer every day

[@frankmarx8997]

Great reaction, you guys should react to the whole album

[@kramerbassplayer]

They ate definitely reggae influenced, they said they're second album title 'regatta de blanc' ' is a play of words meaning white reggae. And they recorded most of their stuff in the carribean.

[@Michael-Philip]

Stuart Copeland used Tama Octobans, a long tube shaped drum. The high pitch drum sound is an octoban. Billy Cobham and Bill Bruford also used octobans.

[@pt9167]

Another outstanding drum track from Stewart is on "Voices (Inside My Head)" Please check that out. Great job guys!

[@lindaulloa4786]

Synchronicity I I is a banger!

[@cheripetty1805]

Guys, I'll mention it again. The name of their 2nd Album is "REGATTA DE BLANC" ~~WHITE REGGAE~~ Get it now??

[@oreally8605]

Reggae is Reggae no matter what color of the people playing it. You dig?

[@sahbian]

back in the 70's London punk scene, punk and reggae came together. Bob Marley had a bit to do with it also. when he traveled to London on tour, he wanted to check out the punk scene. he made the song "Punk Reggae Party" from it.

[@rubyswaim1441]

I saw The Police during their first tour of the U.S. I kept looking for the second drummer. 😂

[@deadmeat_0152]

Man the Police got so many good songs you haven’t touched. Try man in the suitcase, walking on the moon, murder by numbers and more!

[@AW11-e4h]

Copeland is a genius 🤘🤘

[@zedcar7326]

You guys need to sample "So lonely" from their live album, particularly the early version from that double album. Also there are great live videos in '80 of them absolutely bringing the roof down in Hamburg, Markthalle, Rockpalast festival (Western Germany - FRG). Stewart Copelands pace, fills, rimshots and ride cymbal work is exemplary.

[@jw688]

Stuart Copeland has always been my favorite drummer.

[@timwestcott361]

Dub reggae .. still hits.

[@sharon-jo9gb]

Give a listen to The bed's too big without you from Police's Regatta De Blanc Album - the bass guitar is amazing as well as Stuart Copeland's drumming ❤

[@SuperB1741]

Check out Hungry for You from that album. It's a banger!

[@Zennofobic]

Probably haven't heard this in 30 years nice

[@susiedawson3349]

La, If you listen to more Police songs you'll find Copeland is an amazing drummer, one of the top five drummers in rock. IMO

[@ML-un1oi]

❤😊👏

[@jgefroh6692]

How about revisiting some Deep Purple, you haven’t heard all their different styles, try “Mistreated “ , “Soldier of fortune “, “when a blind man cries”

[@SEANBANOG4]

Great reaction....the song is very political....Sting reckons there should not be the Old World, the New World nor the Third World...just One World

[@robertkees6048]

Stewart is the human Shotgun blast.

[@ronmoody3001]

I LISTEN TO ZEP & THE POLICE & BLACK CROWS MORE THAN ANY OTHER BANDS.... STEWART COPELAND IS ONE OF THE UNIQUE BEST..... CHECK OUT....DRIVEN TO TEARS...BUT U GOTTA PLAY DRIVEN THEN WHEN THE WORLD IS RUNNING DOWN BACK TO BACK U WONT REGRET IT

[@matthewcorya7514]

Zingy Marley did a cover of this.

[@dcg4mn]

One of the great things about this track is it makes crystal clear how great they were live: can’t you just hear this with a great long jam?☺️ It even hints at Sting moving in a jazz direction. Longtime fans of the Police and punk and reggae, my wife and I had been off continent for six weeks when this album was released. When we returned and first heard this song on the radio we practically crashed the car!😆 WHO TF IS THIS?! We immediately drove to the nearest record store. “We’re all in the same big boat, one world is enough for all of us.” (Fk this third world shite)✊🏽 Btw: punk was deeply respectful of reggae, none more than the Brits - check out the great band “British Beat” as an example. The best early punk/new wave radio station/s in NYC would mix songs throughout the night: punk and reggae and classic 1950s R&R.

[@Michael-Philip]

please do "Bed's too big Without You" by Police

[@wesleygipson2460]

If Stuart Copeland is known for busting snare drums doing concepts they have to change the drum in the middle of a song

Sting writes kinda sappy tunes, but Stewart Copeland makes up for it.

[@edwardcarter2285]

Get back to Steely Dan please, you are not finished yet. Look at all their albums and do the songs you haven't reacted to. Don't forget "Two Against Nature" and "Everything must go" Donald Fagen has 3 solo albums and there are other songs you haven't reacted to yet. "Don't give up on them yet! I am a "Airplay beats"finatic. Most groups you react to I have seen in concert. I am a Bronx NY man born in the 50's and you two are the best KZbin channel there is. "I love Airplay beats" for real!

[@mamaflush9945]

Hey La & Che, this is something a bit different. If you enjoy a good storytelling song, then you should enjoy listening to some of the late great Leonard Cohen's tunes. He has a very unique set of vocals as well as an unusual style of Storytelling. So, if interested try giving him a listen, "Leonard Cohen - Everybody Knows (Audio)" (by the channel: LeonardCohen) --This song by Leonard Cohen was released on his album called "I'm Your Man" and was released in 1988. It has been described by critics as both bitterly pessimistic and yet funny, and a bleak prophecy about the end of the world as we know it. (Just another banger with lots to ponder over) Hehe And as always, I enjoy hanging out and rocking with you both. Have a blessed day and Thanks for sharing. peace out~
