I know it's cheesy, but I have happy childhood memories associated with The Police. Five stars for nostalgia.
Who doesn't love this video is a shit.
Sting's limited, reed raspy, gimmick of a voice doesn't do it for me. 'Catchy' is not synonymous with 'evil' (or 'good' for that matter). Also, Sting once compared himself to Mozart. Minus 1 million stars.
Sting was never the evil one. It was always Stewart Copeland.
Five for all the morons who think this is a nice love song.
This song was on the radio at work and I brought up the stalker angle and everyone was genuinely surprised. One woman actually said "I thought it was a sweet song, because it was like he was watching her from beyond the grave."
She must have gotten it mixed up with the Puff Daddy version.
This song may have been the death knell for The Police, but there's no denying that that is some fucking sweet guitar tone.
