Not enough "thumbs-up" for that statement. I agree 100%. I've always believed that and always will. So many people automatically default to Sting as the be-all end-all of The Police, but if you listen to each member's songwriting contributions to The Police, then listen to each member's solo work away from The Police, it's quickly apparent The Police's trademark sound--and I'm not talking about just drums; I'm talking drums, guitar, *and* bass (Stewart can play all three instruments expertly, plus many more)--originated completely from Stewart. Of course, Andy Summers is a tremendously gifted guitarist with his own fantastic style--a very warm, jazzy style; however, his immediately identifiable guitar style and tone with The Police was largely an imitation of Stewart's guitar playing. And Sting? Well, to me, he's more or less the lyricist and bass player/lead singer in Stewart's band.

If The Police had any other drummer not named Stewart Copeland, they’re just another good trio-but his drumming-the fills, the spaces, the backbeat-makes all the damn difference and gives the band its massive sound with an almost frenetic force driving the songs forward.

The thing is, they actually likely still do, but it's just that the world has obviously heavily changed ever since the late twentieth century and this century's first decade. Now we are to the point where we have to struggle and dig deep to find genuinely talented/good/original!/interesting music just like that of the previous decades, because "everyone" does music nowadays, and there are now so many different genres, and I'm under the impression that there's also some sort of disinterest about music now compared to before, where great bands and solo artists that were active back then and who were basically all mainstream were already achieving mass success and becoming iconic in their own right, and for very good reasons too, and they still are today. Now music just sounds great at best, but doesn't really sound like it has the potential to become timeless and iconic just like the older songs that still are to this day, and I think that's mainly because many other artists and bands from nowadays who could pretend to such a status are somehow being overwhelmed by the more mainstream plain stuff, almost relegated to some sort of underground/private status. Seems like some sort of cultural thing, with the advance of technology, social media and streaming platforms and all... Now there might be a few exceptions to that, like maybe The Week-End, whom my mother knows about (yeah I have a tendency to measure an artist/band's actual renown/fame through the knowledge of my parents about them, I know it doesn't necessarily work like that lol).

3人の天才が作った名曲、30年後でも演奏できている、これまでの努力に感銘を頂く

The Police were incredible because they were one of those rare bands where, at every instrument and in every member, they were each exceptionally gifted. Really, there is a VERY short list of bands in which EVERY every member was so talented. AND the music they made was exceptional - it REALLY holds up - and it transcended typical pop standards astoundingly. How many other bands so seamlessly blended rock, reggae, blues, pop, and jazz. How cool how different their records are, how they evolved, musically, as songwriters. Thing is, someone - often the singer / this case sting - becomes the focal point, the star. People so individually talented don't want their output and creativity to be diluted. They want THEIR specific vision for songs and music to go forward. In a band, there can't be multiple individualists, each having their own way. So, this is why it is rare for a band to hang together for decades - like the Stones or U2. This only works if individuals within are satisfied that their output is recognized, or they are fine with whatever is accepted by the entire band. But talents with ambition quickly grow disillusioned if their talent or genius feels slighted or not allowed to shine, have reasonable attention. Truth be told, The Police ended things JUST right - before they lost total respect for each other, and before being dragged down into the morass of the fickleness of popular musical tastes and record company stupidity. Which is why they were able to briefly re-unite so successfully. They all had to set free, so as to mature and individually prosper their talents.

Stu Copeland is up there with the best to ever sit behind a kit. His wrists are so strong that it makes me think he has extra muscles and titanium steel oiled and warm in them. He is a lefty playing right handed. I think that is why he hits that snare, it sounds like a friggin gunshot. As a guitarist of 40+ yrs., I wish I pated more attention to early police tunes. Ghost in the Machine was their last good album imho. What a trio! Rush and Cream be damned. The only other tro that has that much talent is ZZ Top as far as I am concerned. At least that is what comes to mind for me right now. ELP just popped in my mind as well. Pure originality and professionalism on that stage.

Certainly one of those drummers that mere mortals like me just can't emulate; he is always on the front edge of the beat, which is tough to do for a number of reasons, and which works perfectly to create the driving and seemingly frenetic sound of The Police.

@@just-sayin67 EVERYDAY!!! Them and Journey are my two favorite groups. I miss the 80’s.

Sting's voice is magical ! His every song I've heard is a masterpiece ! He conveys a lot of messages in his songs !

Each talented member of this magical trio is a pioneer in their own way. Cheers

I come back to this once every while, the fact that all this sound comes from just 3 people still amazes me

as a child i took for granted that they were a 3-piece band. but as an adult seeing clips of them live, it dawned on me that they qualify as "progressive" - for only 3 people to produce such a full sound with precision quality - *very* impressive.

They sound as they should. Good to see that some tings never change. Rock solid playing. Andy Summers really impressed me. Copeland sounds like a ferrari still and Sting still got it, What beautiful bass playing he lays down.

Saw them in Dallas a long time ago. Stewart was amazing!!! His drums were mic'd perfectly. I was just stunned! So glad I got a chance to see them.

Still one of my favourite riffs and one of favourite songs of all time. Andy Summers is a genius.

Looking like Sting when you are 120 years old is goals

Those ninths played by Andy Summers are simply Genius ! Love it ! One of my fvorite Pop Rock tunes of all time ! ...

The best band ever since the Beatles! They were so original and such brilliant musos! Stewart Copeland and Sting were one of the best rhythm sections in rock history!

fucking Stewart Copeland genius drummer

RichyJam2011 hell yea man!

Hands down, the drums make this song. So much sound and feeling coming from out of that kit. With that said, for a 3 piece band to push out that much sound is incredible

Three geniuses, regret never seeing them all together live . This is incredible.

It’s amazing how a three piece sounds so massive, these guys are amazing. Each and every single one of them are amazingly talented

Stewart is a Freaking Beast. And Sting is a Bee King Feast. Andy... is Summsational.

Those are some of the best live vocals I’ve ever heard

Saw the last gig in Melbourne . They are still unforgettable

So awesome...this huge sound is generated from just three guys!!! Three guys playing their hearts out...stunning performance from all three...Stings vocals are superb. Huge performance.

I have a lot of appreciation for Stewart Copeland he makes the band what it is. The sound and technological thought he did for his part is astonishing

Stewart Copeland has to one of the best drummers ever, amazing

As a 9yr back in 79 just really getting into music Message in a bottle was the first single i ever bought and Reggatta the first album and still have to this day. For me the Police are and always will be my favorite band.

3 men, no autotune. Talent, and hard work instead. Sublime.

They sound incredible, why the hell did they only reunite for one tour?

Konstant Papas Yeah, but Sting is the biggest egomaniac in the group by far. That's well documented. That's what I was saying. Regards ....

Some of my favorite bands now that I think of it are 3 people on instruments. Maybe the sound is less muddled that way ? idk.. I liked watching the Netflix movie about Motley Crue. They had some guy on rhythm and were trying out guitarists. Mick Mars came in and they started playing .He pulled the rhythm guys plug out after a few seconds and said a band only needs one guitarist!

And Sting is singing too. I can't imagine how he's doing this.

Honestly, Stewart is without doubt one of the best drummers. His energy, his style, his speed. He is truly one of a kind and i'm truly happy to live in the same time as him

Even after all these years, The Police are still bad asses.

The sound that this three piece band put out was AMAZING! If we could have gotten 3 or 4 more albums out of them. Sting’s voice, Andy’s playing and the incomparable Steward Copeland on drums! His complexity and explosiveness is legendary!

Andy Summers always rolls into the song like a Pro. No Andy, No Police!

Stewart Copeland sta col freno a mano tirato... una bestia come lui devi lasciarla libera di esprimere tutta la sua potenzialità. Andy Summers ha un suono strepitoso ancora oggi dopo 43 anni. Straordinaria Band POLICE♥

Andy the jazz pop guitarist legend, & underrated by many! Love Sting pushed out his voice & nearly cracked! Copeland kept the groove as always! 🙏🏽🌹

I do not get tired of this song! A great classic!

Seeing this song performed live twice in Denver (once outdoors at Red Rocks amphitheater) was a religious experience. Copeland is one of the best drummers in the world. Sting and Summers just nailed it, as well. Bless you three for decades of glorious music!
