Watching Sting and Stewart argue is almost as entertaining as watching them perform their songs.

I like him. He has matured but hasn't really matured. No one else can amaze and annoy Sting better than Stewart.

He referred to Sting as The bass playing element of the band. 😂👍

The *fucking* bass playing element**

Thank you Stewart for attending an amateur gig in Newcasle and leaving your phone number to an amateur bass player and school teacher .. What an incredible story ...

Stew is proper giving out Doc Brown vibes in this clip! 😂

Without Stewart Copeland, Sting would still be playing jazz on Friday and Saturday nights in Newcastle pubs.

True to a point ...but sting had the pop star looks and could write hit songs ..he already had a publishing deal with virgin records before the police had formed...Copeland picked up on that ..he had the big music connections ...his brother miles was quiet a big hitter in the music industry at the time...

I truly❤Stewart Copeland. With The Police or not Stewart was and will always be an OUTSTANDING drummer🎶

I agree, and love the sound of the band in this tour. This was very funny!!

He says that the fill appears in "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic", but in the scene from Better Than Therapy he is referring to it says "So Lonely".

You are rigth Stewart your drums are really «magic» and your octobons is something I ever wanna want to heard more on the Reunion Tour... regards from Perú!

jajajaja indeed it is!!!!! wonderful book I just got mine!!!! Come to Colombia stewart here are a lot of rhythms still to study!!!!

Love all you do

I love The Police! I grew up listening to them! They are amazing musicians! I love Sting, Stewart and Andy!

Something you may not know is that Stewart’s just won his second Grammy (one this year and one last year (2022 and 2023)), for his collaboration with Indian musician Ricky Kej! Congratulations Ricky and Stewart! 👌 .. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 … 😃

I loved that bit in the Better than Therapy documentary for the reunion

Too funny! You tell it, Stew!

Yes Stew, but Sting was right. You did fuck it up in that rehearsal! 😂♥️

I just saw that video with sting for the first time today and it's like the first thing I noticed. He trips over his own beat immediately after starting the song

This MOFUS never stop!! I remember seeing that spat on Ytb. ..long live rock.. and carry on, without arguments and fights bands are woud be nothing. I hope any of those guys corrects my grammar. Signing out 4 now, on my way to a "secret mission "

I would like to add that Sting asked to remove hit hats addition from Stewart Copeland in the initial recording of Every breath you take. I wonder if Stewart Copeland remembers what he had in mind back then (and did). It would be great to bring back to life his initial ideas to the song.

If you like this I think you’ll love Stewart’s autobiography, ‘Strange Things Happen’! 👌 .. 😀

So there!

He would have made a great Michael in the Good Place

Whats the song at the beginning of the video?

Can someone tell me what song is the intro?

My second favorite drummer, but he's a handful. I can see why Stewart and Sting maybe had a rocky relationship.

I always liked Stewart. I like all members of the police and if you get around to it, watch the documentary from Andy Summers called surviving the police it is really good.

Actually it was a different song - I believe it was “So Lonely”,

Well obviously.

I'm trying to figure out how you are not to like Stewart Copeland,and I have been doing that sense I first heard him on Zennatta Mendatta. But I just can't figure it out, No one can top him.

Even Snoop Doggy Dog digs it!

Sting isn't always right but when he is.....he drinks 😂 i don't tell Ian what to play on every song but sometimes I want a specific thing to be played that s all.

Both of them are masters of their respective crafts and they butt heads constantly. But man they made some great albums.

Sting turned the reunion tour into a jazz fusion version of the Police. I saw them at Wrigley field and I was left wondering. It melded into one big Police song. Dissatisfaction.

Dude why is every comment in any police video an aggressive “I’m the only one who knows the truth about the band dynamics” deal. Completely unprompted.

I'm certain that all the problems between Sting and Stewart come from Stewart being more popular than Sting, whereas Sting always kind of felt like an orphan, since his parents weren't as supportive as Stewart's for doing music. Stewart is irreplaceable and even better than Neil Peart who I keep hearing about.

Neil Peart and Stewart Copeland are equally both great drummers/percussionist. Only difference is in their style of playing. Plus they both were great friends and learned from each other.

He plays with the drums. Not hits or punishes them. Its nice to hit them hard WHEN the guitar player has a plexi half stack and the bass player has a big amp too. 👌🤣. FAIR PLAY.

Egg on Stingo’s face! 🤣🤣🤣 Love it! Safe to say there’s a reason a bass player isn’t a drummer where trying to tell a drummer how to do his job is the ultimate act of lunacy and delusional arrogance born from spending too much time around paid session musicians too scared to tell him where to go!
