In most interviews, Stewart humbly claims that he's just a guy "who bangs on shit". He says he's random, and maybe that's true, but we all know that he always found beats that nobody knew even existed in time, which makes his drumming...well, timeless.

The Police одна из моих любимых групп. Помню как слушал их альбомы будучи студентом в 2013-м году, прогуливаясь по улицам Казани и в поездках на автобусе, по дороге на учебу в ВУЗ и обратно. В том же году мне посчастливилось побывать на концерте Стинга в Казани, вместе с моим братом и в конце даже удалось подойти вплотную к сцене и увидеть Стинга, а также происходящее на сцене, в непосредственной близости. От музыки The Police веет уютом, безмятежностью, легкостью и теплотой атмосферы конца 70-х и начала 80-х годов, благодаря чему их музыка не надоедает и периодически хочется возвращаться к ней вновь. Эх, хорошие были времена.

I was born in 69. MTV started when I was junior high. I remember watching these videos before and after school. I used to listen to the Police, Rush, Pink Floyd, AC DC, Metallica, Guns n Roses, The Cure, Depeche Mode, New Order, Madonna, etc etc etc. I could go on and on. Plus that was when Walkman's were invented... the pre-IPod era. Music today does not even compare. Also, we used to go to the arcade to play video games. We'd all get together and have tournaments away from our parents. Then, we used to play football, baseball, basketball, frisbee, hacky sack, bikes, skateboards, etc outside with all the kids in the neighborhoods. It was truly the best time to have grown up as a child. I feel sorry for these young kids... they are so deprived... they have no idea!

@@tommyzeus2802 Yeah. We thought nothing was going to be the same again. We thought we were the Bomb then. It felt so good. The Police didn't take themselves too seriously, at first. Their videos were said to have a bit of Marx Brothers energy to them. High praise back then...

Only a talent like Stewart Copeland can make a Space Shuttle sound Percussive. Wow

I'm in Alabama. Our local vet hospital is called "Walking on the moon animal hospital" I asked them how they came up with that. They say it was after this song because Dr. Moore felt it reflected his feelings at the time. Lol

Pure chords played with deep reverb and nice effects, unique voice of Sting, tight bass, and sleek drumming give this song its great personality and make it a cornerstone of modern popular music.
