P-Diddy used it to memorialize Notorious B-I-G! It is called, “I’ll Be Missing You”. Sting actually sings backgrounds on a live version that I have seen, but don’t know what show. Probably on MTV or BET award show.
The 1997 MTV VMA’s czcams.com/video/V0nL7weZrp8/video.html
P Diddy didn't ask permission to sample the beat or some of the words "Title"
They reached an private agreement that P Diddy would NEVER receive ANY royalties from his song "Missing You" and he wouldn't take him to court as long as he agreed to allow him to perform with him and Faith Evens at the awards when he premiered it!
@@kimberlygrimm7007 Diddy also has to pay sting 2000 a day until 2050
@@kennyfleck8630 omg lol. Sting is loling all the way to the bank 😆
@@macsfe9828 probably while singing,
Every cent you make
A portion I will take
Lol
This song was written by the lead singer Sting about him being stalked by his ex wife. And the words are sang through the eyes of the stalker.
They say stalking is the most sincerest form of flattery. Whoever "they" are.
You're right it's about a stalker, but Diddy changed it when he sampled it into a eulogy when Biggie died.
Ahhh got you!!
Yep I like both of them. Both styles. But this one I love because it's so stalkerish. 😎 💯
And that's why Sting gets $2K a day. Diddy straight up stole this song and changed it without getting permission.
@@punkydoodle4774 Well Sting deserved it, it's a dam good song. History is full of people who made mistakes during mourning&loss of friends, at least Diddy didn't kill nobody in Biggie's memory, stealing songs still wrong tho lol.
2k a day seems a lil high tho that mightve come down some.
Sting, the lead singer, stated everyone thinks this is a love song. But you were right, it’s about stalking.
Thank you for the reaction! The instrument is a relative of the cello. It is a bass. AKA, upright bass, bass violin or bass fiddle. Yeah, it's the acoustic version of the electric bass guitar. The Police was a badass band and Sting is still the man! His solo stuff is amazing!
isn't it called a double bass??
@@colinmcgregor6890 Yep! Bass and double bass are the most common terms, but leonardo's are also correct. Contrabass, acoustic bass and string bass are also used. Depends mostly on the genre.
@@colinmcgregor6890 That too!
The Police were different. Don't think anyone else had the same style or vibe.
He's playing a stand-up acoustic bass...jazz bass, etc...
The song Diddy sampled was called "I'll Be Missing You".
No, the song Diddy STOLE was called "Every Breath You Take." He retitled it "I'll Be Missing You."
The drummer Stewart Copeland is fantastic. They’ve got a massive catalog.
Copeland. Complex pieces played to make it look easy...and so tight!
Brilliant in curved air as well.
This song has a sinister vibe but still beautiful at the same time. Thank you for your great reactions, I really enjoy watching them!
Originally, it probably had nothing to do with anything sinister - or stalking. If anyone really cares, they can go back and look at past interviews with Sting, and they'll see that he spun the stalker angle only in later years, probably only after he heard other people interpret it that way and he decided it was a cooler, "edgier" take on it, but he's been inconsistent on it even after that. Sting wrote the song in 30 minutes, sitting at his piano in the middle of the night, without much thinking about it, so any possible sinister motive would have to be attributed to his subconscious. So people should probably just interpret it as they want. Myself, I've always interpreted in the spirit Sting originally said it was written in, as a simple love song.
Fun fact: Led Zeppelin's song, 'D'Yer Mak'er', also contains the words 'every breath I take, every move I make'
Mad stalkery!
Sting himself said that he wrote Set Them Free as an "apology" for the stalking vibe of Every Breath You Take.😁
@@supertrexandroidx There's nothing romantic about someone who is obsessed, and watching everything another person does.
Diddy sampled it with missing you for biggie small
^ True
The instrument Sting is playing is called a double bass, sometimes referred to as a stand up bass
The Police were a one of a kind band and this isn't even nearly their best song in my opinion. Try Roxanne or Synchronicity ll next.
This is considered soft rock blues. Sting is on vocals and standup bass. Cello is similar, smaller with more range than the bass and is played with a violin type bow. The music is more symphonic with the strings plus that dynamic drum beat. Was actually written on a Hammond organ. The meaning of the song, as the public listened was interpreted of a love song full of devotion. That is why it stayed at number one for so long. In reality, Sting wrote the song about the disintegration of his first marriage and his struggle with a mental break. This quote …. “Sting felt that the mix of light and darkness was “all about my life”. It derived from the mood swings he experienced amid professional success and marital failure. But the “really rather evil” song about “jealousy and surveillance and ownership” had an extra significance. It summed up The Police’s troubled internal dynamics.” Stings issues took a hard toll on the band itself. We didn’t know the term bipolar in 1983. We called it stalking. The entire Synchronicity album is a masterpiece. Pick any song. They are all works of art.
1983. Fresh out of high school, my uncle bought me a ticket to spend a month in the Bay Area, CA with him and my cousin. On the way to Lake Tahoe my cuz bought the Synchronicity tape. We played it that whole week at the camp site. First time in the US, first time across the Atlantic Ocean. Damn! The memories.
That was a bass before the electric bass, bass was a hyuge instrument. They calll it a standing bass, if I'm not mistaken.
In 2019 “Every Breath You Take” was recognized as the song with the all-time most plays on radio- 15 million plays since the 1983 release.
The Police were a vibe! Listen to Wrapped Around Your Finger, Message In a Bottle, and Voices. I'd also suggest trying Sting's solo songs. Englishman in New York would be a good one to start with.
Diddy sampled this song, paying homage/eulogy to The Notorious B.I.G. Please react to Diddy version
Famously a fan once said to Sting on stage that he sang this song to his girlfriend thinking it was a romantic song until Sting said to him “you do know this song is about a stalker right?”.
I also heard once that Sting couldn't understand why people used this for their first dance at their wedding. Something to the effect, 'they think it's romantic, but it's about a stalker!'
He was playing a stand-up BASS---used quite a bit in the days before they invented electric instruments. They have a distinct sound and a lot of musicians (bassists) use them--even today. Keep listening.
Sting is playing a Stand Up Bass! Thank you. Love, from the Great State of Oklahoma,
USA 🤍
He was playing a stand-up bass - the precursor to the bass guitar.
Every Little Thing She Does is Magic, Message In a Bottle, Walking on the Moon, Roxanne…plus about 20 more tunes, all bangers! And Stewart Copeland, the drummer, shines in every song they did, he is up there with the greats.
ever noticed, how most of the best bands ever, are British? these, pink floyd, led zep, tears for fears, queen, the beatles. list is endless.
You nailed this! It’s a stalker lyric with a love song vibe. The singer and writer ‘Sting’ wrote it while going through a contentious divorce. Many, many, idiots used this as their wedding song.
The Police “Wrapped Around Your Finger” official video 🙏
POLICE reaction Walking on the moon...message in a bottle ..../Roxanne
This is one of the best songs ever & the video is also awesome.
The instrument is the upright bass or double bass (called either). Cello is smaller & played sitting with it between your knees. If you want more upright bass check out The Stray Cats (also quintessential 80s music). Dude in that band will stand on his while playing it. It's nuts.
Yes, the instrument Sting was playing was a upright bass or double bass. Looks very similar to a cello.
Sting is an amazing talent- check out “Perfect Love, Gone Wrong”, “Brand New Day”, “Russians,” “Fortress Around Your Heart.” He even took his music and created a Broadway musical!
Ah yes, The Police.. pls also check out their "Wrapped Around Your Finger" -- official video is a must. Good day to ya both.
I got to see The Police in concert on their last tour in 2008. Sting was so cool and the band was fantastic.
Puff Daddy or P Diddy, whatever he goes by nowadays, sampled this in his song to Biggie back in the 90’s.
He was playing a string bass, also called "double bass", also called "bass viol" -- the largest member of the violin family. He also plays bass guitar and all of the other flavors of bass stringed instrument.
puff daddy/diddy/whatever hes currently calling himself sampled it in ill be missing you, his tribute song to notorious b.i.g. after he was murdered and lead singer of the police, sting, actually performed it with him at the VMA's the same year
Crazy that anyone ever thought this was a love song. I and everyone I knew, knew this was a stalker song back in the day
An even scarier stalker is the subject of 'Blondie's hit 'One way or another'. One Direction's cover of it seemed to have missed the message too and got their teenage fans all signing happily along to a stalker song as if it was a love song.
Man I played this so much as a teen that my mum knew all the words!Sampled into I'll be missing you years later xx
Reckelss: Sting was playing the Stand-up bass--they have a deep bottom sound with thicker strings and are mostly used by jazz bassists, but if your technique is good, you can rock or funk with them, too!
That's a "Stand Up Bass" lead singer, bassist, writer and Actor STING (Dune 1984) is playing!
And yes, Sting claims it's a song about an obsession and creepy behavior sold as a love ballad, genuis!
This song sounds soft and easy, but I swear on guitar this song is just a hand cramp waiting happen 😂. You have to make a pretty big stretch with your index finger.
Too tru. Was playing this song on rocksmith and holy fuck my hand get cramps playing the main riff, have to stretch my ass off lol
When it takes them a while to remember the cover…!!! makes me feel ancient 🙈
The instrument is a double bass, easy to mix up with the cello.
When it first came out couples would flock to the dance floor, some even had it on their wedding day going up the isle not knowing it was a stalker song.
“ don’t stand so close to me” that’s a good one also
Roxanne, Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic, Da Do Do Da, King of Pain, Wrapped Around Your Finger all great songs.
Great reaction! The Police is definitely my favorite band.
Greatest stalker song ever written, no matter where she is, what she is doing, who she is with & even while she is breathing he will watching her - PEACE LOVE n HIPPYNESS ✌☮
Definitely checkout Roxanne 👍🏼🔥
So many great, great songs. Some pop, some with really skillful depth, some with both. I like So Lonely, Walking on The Moon, Message In A Bottle. Roxanne is probably their most popular which Eddie Murphy helped with singing it in the move 48 Hours. If you haven't seen that movie you will love it.
Exactly right. This is about being totally possessive. Stalker type vibe. But, it sounds like a love song. Sting said people come up to him saying it is their song. He would tell them he feels sorry for them.
Great reaction guys.....Sting the lead singer & bassist is playing an upright acoustic bass in the video here, these are often used in acoustic jazz ensembles, they have a distinctive sound and they get used on pop records from time to time if a certain acoustic sound is required....they are not easy to play from what i'm told but then no instrument is!
you are thinking of Faith Evans & P. Diddy. The singer Sting has a song that is sadly relevant again called "Russians".
Yes. Russians is definitely relative at this time.😥
P Diddy didn't just 'sample' this. He pretty much lifted it wholesale, without permission. If he'd asked, he would have received a big chunk of the royalties from his cover. As it is, he makes nothing whilst Sting makes a couple of grand a day, from P Diddy's version alone! As for Police, in the late 70s and early 80s they became the biggest band in the World! Sting, their lead vocalist, bassist and main songwriter, eventually left to pursue a highly successful solo career. He was one of the megastars of the '80s!
They have so many songs / videos .Roxanne” “ message in a bottle “ Synchronicity2” that one is lit . Love your channel guys !!
“Roxanne” will have to be your next Police reaction….you’ll love!!
Police owned the 80 s. Rock with reggae mix. Check out their early stuff. Roxanne, message in a bottle, don’t stand so close to me, da do do do, walk-in on the moon. Trust this old dude you ll love iy
Funny how a minority of people criticise the song as "creepy" but you never hear people making those same criticisms whenever it’s performed by a female singer.
Yep one of the best stalker obsessive songs that's out there. There's a lot of stalkerish songs. There's this one and the '60s song Turn around look at me, that they used in one of the final destination movies. ♥️❤️♥️
Yes, it's a stalker song! You got it. Most people think it's a love song, but it's not. My hubby and I grew up listening to The Police, then got the chance to attend their reunion tour in Las Vegas, We sat right behind the stage, which turned out to be fantastic seats right by the drummer. Amazing show. One of the best times I've ever had at a concert. Sting, the lead singer, was playing a bass, by the way. Cheers!
The lead singer of Police is Sting who has an amazing solo career as well. Check out Stings song Desert Rose.I very different and amazing.
Sting still makes $2k a day from royalties from this song. It wasn't a huge hit, but I think you two would enjoy Walking on the Moon. King of Pain is also one of my favorites. I remember the kids crying when The Police broke up in 1984.
I love ‘King of Pain’ and you rarely hear it…..
Walking on the Moon definitely was a big hit?
It was the #1 song for the year 1983. That's a huge hit!
Hey guys, the instrument that Sting is playing is an upright bass. What an excellent band The Police are. I really Enjoy your channel, Much lo you
The Police are a 3 piece band, just like Rush is. Sting is the lead singer and also had a huge solo career, and he is widely considered one of the greatest Rock/pop vocalists ever, Andy Summers is the guitarist and is in most people’s list of greatest guitar players of all time, and the drummer Stewart Copeland is about as well respected as one can be in drumming circles, he’s also on the list of the greatest. One of the few bands, along with The Who, Rush, and a small handful of others who have all of their members considered to be elite in their respective talents.
So close!! Congratulations in advance.
99.9K guys! Congrats - you deserve it.
Double bass is the instrument, he was a music teacher years ago
Believe it or not, people actually use this for a wedding song! Clearly written & sung from a person who got dumped and can't let go ... IDK how anyone can misinterpret "I'll be watching you, no matter what you're doing" as a love song! Lol But yeah like Rush, for only three members, The Police generate a lot of music. Lots of great tracks to explore: "Roxanne," "Don't Stand So Close to Me," "Wrapped Around Your Finger," "Invisible Sun," "Walking on the Moon" and "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic" just to name a few.
I Love this song!!!!
WRAPPED AROUND MY FINGER, KING OF PAIN, DRIVEN TO TEARS, MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE, FORTRESS AROUND YOUR HEART.
Sting plays bass, sometimes he plays an electric bass and sometimes he uses the original standing bass.
I’m not really a Police fan, but this band was huge back in the day. If they would have stayed together, they would have been right there with U2, as one of the biggest bands of all-time.
No one does it quite like the Police does it… great band, great song and a great reaction!! This song was basically written from the perspective of Sting’s (lead singer and bass player) ex-partner who followed him everywhere went… it’s a very soothing yet kinda creepy song . Brilliantly written that’s for sure
I saw the band in the early 80's...fantastic show....drummer wore only a green Speedo...
Reread the lyrics. This song is about a stalker, not someone who loves anyone.
Re-listen to what the man said, he got it right straight away, a stalker song that just sounds like a love song [3:00]
"Wrapped Around Your Finger", "King of Pain", "Don't stand so close to me", but most important is "Roxanne"!
God I can't wait till the day you listen to Eagles "Hotel California" greatest American rock song ever off of the #1 selling album I'm American music history. It topped Michael Jackson's Thriller to take #1. If you ever react to it do the live version from Capital Center 1977 version because it's the best performance ever. Pure fire & the guitars are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The Police for a time were the biggest band in the world. Catalogue of classics... you must try the single Roxanne next some time as another huge hit. Sting is a multi-talented musician who went solo after the police with major success such as Fields of Gold and an Englishman in New York dto name but two. Thanks for your review
The instrument Sting is playing is an Upright Bass, also referred as an acoustic bass.
Great reaction, you both got the message of the sing very quickly; I call it, "The Stalker National Anthem". 😂🤣😂
Please check out my favorite Police song/video, "Wrapped Around Your Finger".
Thanks for this great reaction video.
Much Love And Respect. Take Care. ✌
It is about a stalker but many people had this as their wedding song not realizing the meaning. Sting said in an interview he woke up from a dream and wrote it down immediatlely.
I like some of the 1st stuff they put out thats not widely popular .Had a ska,reggae sound.Stewart Copland is known to be a good drummer in top 25 usually.
This can definitely be interpreted as a stalker song. However, it makes more sense as an ultra possessive, jealous and controlling person IN a relationship. Especially with lyrics like, 'every vow you break', 'every bond you break', 'every word you say' and 'every game you play'. Whichever way you interpret it, it's undoubtedly dark. Amazingly, many people missed the meaning entirely and instead saw it as a beautiful love song! For a fair few years, this was the most popular song at weddings! :)
Classic stalker song!!! And a lifelong favorite!!!🎵🎼🎶🥁🎸🎹🎧🎙🎤🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Sting was amazed that this song became the wedding song of the day. Its about a stalker😆
You should check out Sting(the lead singer)'s 'Englishman in New York'... The guy exudes cool, calm and confident like few others..
Everyone in the day used to think this was a love song, but if you actually listen to the lyrics carefully it’s about an obsessed stalker following someone.
That was an acoustic bass Sting(lead singer) was playing
The Police were among the rare 3 piece bands that made it HUGE. ELP (Emerson, Lake and Palmer) , Rush, and ZZ-Top are some of the 3-somes that made double platinum sales. Sting has a unique sounding voice and is a pretty good actor. He was the villain in the 1984 version of the SciFi epic DUNE.
Their drummer, Stuart Copeland is a prolific composer who wrote and played a lot of 80's/90's tv themes, music videos, video games, etc.
For a more rock song from them, check out 'Synchronicity 2' official video. It's one of my favorites because it features The Loch Ness Monster.
Sting is playing the double bass.🇨🇦💖🇺🇸
Police message in a bottle is good also.
It's a Double Bass.
Yep, it's a straight up stalker song, but we were jamming to it back in the day, though! 🤣
My sisters loved this song when it ame out. I called it the scary song and it stll gives me the creeps. And yet the music and vocals are beautiful.
This group gives law enforcement a good name.
That's just a bigass badass bass, that's all.
this was used by p diddy for tribute song ill be missing you with faith evans for notorious b.i.g
the poilce are a trio from london from 77.sting is the singer and main writer.he went solo after they broke up.their early stuff has a reggae sound to it.
roxanne
message in a bottle
every little thing she does is magic
don't stand so close to me
walking on the moon
can't stand losing you
wrapped around your finger
do do do
You got it! It is a stalker song! Most people think it's about love.
best stalker song ever! 😀
Ooh Sh*t!! The Stalker's Anthem 😁
One of their best songs is "We Are Spirits in a Material World"
People actually used to play this at weddings.
