#PolarMusicPrize #Sting #JoseFeliciano - Hudba
Sting is a class apart. He's a category in himself. There are no comparisons. He's incomparable. His music transcends generations and spirit. He's a poet. Fees a musician. He's a songwriter. He's a father. He's a friend. He's a lover. He's a Yogi. He's human. His music makes you feel he's part of your intimate life.
I'm one of the lucky ones to meet him (recently) in an unofficial setting and yes, I thanked him!!😃
I am a huge Beatle fan and always will be. I love Pink Floyd, all four of them together, and not apart. Even Elvis still moves me but Sting is the embodiment of all. He knows his music will forever be, as it is recorded, enjoyed and stored, into the joyful, serene, place, in all our hearts.
Can never tire of Sting's music. A well deserved award. 😇
I love Sting....yes he made me aware of the environment back in the 80s and his voice music is stunning
Sting in spite of all the rewards you got you are so humble your soul is so beautiful 😍
Sting deserve that prize bringing so much joy to human race...with total dedication . Long life Sting to compose even more shocking songs...
So handsome! It is evident he is moved by this award, the songs sung and words stated.
STING, my favorite man! Have loved your music since always. Congrats you so deserve it🧕🏾🖐🏽🇱🇷🤦🏾♀️❤
I LOVE Sting! Congrats!
"all of us make mistakes..." what a lovely speech direction...
Very dear to watch this man humbly and beautifuly accept this well-deserved award
A great song writer and musician! One of the best ever. Rolling Stones didn’t name him as one of the top 100 song writers in Rock. What a joke is that magazine! He is one of the top 5 never mind top 100.
@ Jay Jax Exactly!! Couldn’t agree with you more!! Paul McCartney even said he wish he had written ‘Fields of Gold’.🐝🐝🐝🐝🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Nobody deserves this prize more than Sting - he is a Living legend
Sting and his wife are v.inspirational grounded people . V.greatful to life.
thank You Sting for inspiration in investigation of Music composition Your Music is new eon in future of Music
Grande José Feliciano 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Wish I could have received a mere sprinkle of talent Sting got. Oh well, at least we all get to enjoy his music.
There is no such thing as a wrong note (or mistake). It's what you do after that that matters.
Oh.My.God.
Many musical harbours - very nice.
So modest!!
As a Sting fan of 40 years, I've defended him more times than I can remember... mainly against accusations that he's an egomaniac. I've always felt those accusations said more about the accuser than about Sting. I hope the people who still criticize him see this video. If you're just utterly cynical, then I suppose nothing will change your mind, but I think most will see a genuinely humble and appreciative man here.
Thanks....you are the great one
Great musician, great advise, super orchestra specially miss petra and mr. nils, you made my day sir. thank you
. from user ➖➖▶"Sting's point about silence in music is fascinatingly put. 8.22 - 9.30.
And Jose's words and effort are phenomenal."
wow jose feliciano...awesome!
Great honor for a great artist.
It's just an big honor to be in one of his concerts...
I love his music!! My man sting!!!
Bravo Sting
was für ein wunderbarer Mann
Well deserved. Ive came to like The Police and specially Sting since 1981, maybe because Bob Marley has just past, and Sting and Andy Summers reminded me Bob Marley and Carlton Barrett. Then I loved Sting until today
My gorgeous guy ...
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
José is joking all the time about his blindness and people do not get it. He can't read, he can't see, and he insists in that he is going to read, and people do not get it or do not find it funny. Well done, José Feliciano, you are great too, and have made us happy with your music since the sixties.
Looks to me like he is reading braille?
He probably is. I do not know, really.
He is amazing
Of course he reads....braille.
Yes, of course. But he jokes about reading with the eyes, in the kind of Ray Charle's kind of humor on their own condition. Brilliant men.
Just saw Last Ship last night in Toronto for his last night performance. Magical, powerful, emotional and poignant. The greatest artist of our times.
Congrats Sting. Yo are the best musician in your genere! ❤
Bi-Polar Music Prize!!! .... his heads so full of it! his hair cant take it!!! they had to give him another award! He knows hes Gods gift to Music! ..gota give him a Freakin prize! ... guess they had to give Jose F a gig after all these years! ...best part of this tragic dilemma!
Pour moi , le meilleur compositeur et chanteur Anglais
En Hora buena, Sting mientras DIOS NOS permite enterarnos de estos reconocimiento q se te hacen en Vida "Maestro" y hablar del "Maestro" José Feliciano que sensibilidad para expresar su postura en este Merecido Reconocimiento. En Hora buena súper músicos.
Exelente Sting 👏👏👏
It took me three minutes to notice he was reading braille.
"I AM NOT WHAT I AM"...
Fantastico.
Bravo Sting!
He deserved it. I am so happy for him. 😊👍🏼❤️
BRAVO! BRAVO *Sting* Gordon Sommner, BRAVO!

"Music's only as fine as the silence it's compared to.
"Sharing the two, we can hear..."
TO THE SEA Bill Champlin, 1976.
So proud to know of you. ETTa Davis.
Aaron Copeland also spoke about silences...as in the reflection at the conclusion of one piece and the anticipation of the next.
A great musician v.inspirational .greatful to life !! V.grounded .
I love sting he's music is awesome 👌 👏 👍
Knighthood......Sir Sting !!!, or Sir Gordon Sumner...He'd prefer the first one I think!
José Feliciano!
A otro grande!
Dios te bendiga gracias
Viva sting..
Paul McCartney and Sting, two greats.
Have been lucky to have seen both live in concert Paul McCartney in Las Vegas Sting in Dublin
Meraviglioso il discorso di Sting! Lo riporto...
"In hearing these welcome comments I've come to realize that popular music in all its forms has managed to create a soundtrack to peaple's life memories the prompts and musical cues for their personal emotional landscapes. This is as surprising to me as it is nourishing for these seemingly commonplace events I am most grateful. What have I learned as a musician? The most significant piece os musical advice I was ever given was from the great arranger Gil Evans who told me this:
- Sting, there is no such thing as a wrong note is always the note that follows that will define whether the first note was wrong or not. -
After some thoughts I realize that this was profound advice not only in the context of music but also in life. All of us make mistakes, but is how we react to those apparent mistakes in what follows that defines our human intelligence, our ability to adapt to improvise and to evolve. I can only claim one and only one nugget of musical truth in my own thinking, it is this that in the composition of music Silence is every bit as important as sound, equally important to note value, tomber and pitch.
In my own work I've attempted to allow murders to breed uncluttered by dense layers of sound whenever possible a deering to the old maxim that Less Is More and so I've come to believe that if there is such a thing as a perfect music not perfect music may well be this, Silence, and all that we do as musicians is create a frame and hopefully a beautiful frame around that perfection that we call Silence.
Sting felicidades
Oh muy good
Hermoso 🥰🥰🥰Sting
J'avoue ma déception de ne pas avoir un Anglais suffisamment compétent pour pouvoir comprendre cet hommage rendu à cet immense talentueux chanteur et musicien Sting (à revoir vos traductions en temps réel...Merci !)
Sting är enastående!
pinche Sting ni q cagara
tan ancho el premio selo dió un grande músico
el gran José Feliciano
Jose Feliciano is also a great musical genuis!
Well judging by his version of Every breath you take id say he's garbage, what the hell went wrong? even sting looked disgusted by it.
Sting just got stung.
nice!
Whey aye man
BLUE BLOOD.
So worth it....
digno de admiracion leyendo con los dedos
Sting, Receba as homenagens, também de todos nós brasileiros, da sua segunda terra, venha sempre....
Alguien me traduce en un resumen por favor. Gracias!
..the space in between your notes are more important than the notes you are playing....
fantastiskt tal!!
no mention of his band mates?...don't think he'd be at this level without the police "sound"...
He didn't get this big singing "We'll be Together", and touting Jaguars in the desert!
Sting, venha tomar umas raízes.ok.
Congratulations Mr. Gordon Sumner. You are a living legend.
Besides am I the only one who thinks the JF speech was kind of awkward? I do not have problems with Mr. Feliciano, I have problems who directed this event.
I don't find it akward, I think it's quite moving, emotional perhaps... I would like to listen those words about myself haha! Great artists both of them :)
Reading brail
it's Tantrix...You read too many tabloids
Its been so long... now i gota do every breath i take ...and now im sorry.. gota hand this bi-polar award to this ole tady ... but it really doesnt matter anyhow!
No way Jose!
Was this speech before or after that Jose dude butchered Stings song?
