This is for my brother Roy ✝️💔,…He passed on in 1987,…He would have been 67yrs old but he died at the age of 31yrs old ,…My poor Mom ✝️ cried & cried ,…That’s why this song is special to me 🙁
The first time I heard this song play in 1987, I couldn't stop crying and here I am in 2021 and still can't make it through the video without crying. Thank you Sting for bring this to the world's stage and all that you continue to do for Amnesty International.
I'm on the same page. Sometimes you just have to cry. Joni wrote: "laughing and crying, it's the same release" .... The song is timeless ... Like his: "Fragile"... Wish it had Hornsby on the keys. What a combo THAT would be.
When I was a teenager our English teacher introduced us to "Englishman in New York", "Russians" and this beautiful song. Through Sting we improved our vocabulary but more important, started thinking about the world...one of the greatest musicians ever. Beautiful man with a beautiful soul. Now I make my kids listen to Sting so they get to know what great music is. Love you Sting.
It's over 30 years ago that as newly qualified teacher, I played this song to my students after reading a book set during the Pinochet regime in Chile. It's as sad and relevant today as it was then. What a sorry state our world is in. Have we learned nothing?
Sting is the only dude who made music in the 70's and early 80's that still lives up just as well in 2022, over 40 years later.. the amount of respect i have for this guy is beyond anything.
He's exceptional.. excellent. High Moral Values are of his Nature, too. The rockstar is still genuinely together with his longtime married Partner Trudy. Way to Be and Create Excellence, Mr.Sumner.
I wouldn't say the Only dude but I get what you're trying to say. There aren't many great artists like Sting who created beautiful art that still resonates...today. But Sting is one of the very best of them all.
Same, that whole verse is incredible. And Sting was totally right, a couple years later the foreign money stopped, and that was basically the end of Pinochet. A shame he didn't live long enough to be executed but at least he lived long enough to be disgraced.
I watched a film of him doing this song in Chile I believe, there were armed guards standing around the auditorium. There were women that came up on stage with picture of their missing. It was heart wrenching and made me very thankful for where I was born. God Bless all the people that have to live in countries that go thru this, I hope I never have to.
That was the Amnesty International tour. Kenny Kirkland, Darryl Jones and Branford Marsalis were on the tour with him as well. I believe he did something similar in Argentina
Both our beautiful nations have suffered under the blind ambition of cruel men. It is up to us to make sure that the ghosts of Pinochet and Peron are forever exorcised. @@juanestadian8471
The decade of the 1980s, we saw Sting morph from the wildman who jumped around talking about De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da into this amazing transcendent poet and musical messenger. What an amazing talent this man is!
Thirty-four years later, and this remains a timeless masterpiece, with a poignant message, and with Branford's brilliantly (yet equally understated) sax solo, bringing the song home, at the end. Stellar!
TIMELESS!, ALL OF HIS WORK. PERFECTION! I WAS BORN 2 DAYS AFTER HIM, AND BORN WITH A HUGE, LOVE OF MUSIC!!! LIBRAN'S!. THE STORY BEHIND THIS SONG IS SO SAD.
Raz na jakiś czas rodzi się psychopata- zbrodniarz z manią władzy nad innymi krajami.I zaczyna napadać,mordować innych.I powołuje się na Boga..19.03.2023.
I’m a son of an ex MIR combatant and both parents were tortured my mum being pregnant at the time and under age. This song kept me going through many years. Sting and Blades acknowledgement of the Pinochet dictatorship. Thank you Sting.
My dad was at estadio Victor Jarra ,pissagua ,puchuncavi, where there is or was a German museum. I went to pissagua at ten. We drove the dessert of attacama to get there
Does Sting get the recognition he deserves? His body of work is just outstanding. Classic pop of the 80"s with the Police, masterpiece songs like this one here, amazing Jazz collaborations with Branford Marsalis and Omar Hakim. A true genius.
Sting is to me, one of the best artistes of all time. A songwriting genius. Every song has a powerful message. Great guy. Would love to have lunch sometime so I can ask him his songwriting technique. Lol.
Ηe is by far the best pop/rock songwriter of our time.The man has written just about anything. From Jazz to Pop to reggae to theatrical stuff...He's done it all with love and respect. A true master and a genuine lover of music with no boundaries and blinkers in regards of music whatsoever.
I know his gardeners, a bit weird I know but they are a lovely couple in their 80’s. Sting considers them as part of his family. A true gentleman in my book
Joseph Kenny Very true, when they dud the conspiracy of hope tour there was a risk to life in doing so for all those involved where the only thing that avoided an incident was probably the prospect of global hatred and revolution which would have followed
La cueca sola es quizá la única danza en el mundo cuya expresión trae pena, tristeza, desesperanza, etc, tanto en quien la baila como en quien le observa.
Hear the complexity and classical chord phrasing of his compositions. No other artist of the rock era had such musical references. Such depth of beauty ❤
I consider Sting to be a type of Bob Marley of the soft rock era.. many of his early albums contained songs of deep social commentary..one if my favorite artists of all time.. that Sax was a key signature of his musical style..
"The song is a metaphor referring to mourning Chilean women (arpilleristas) who dance the Cueca, the national dance of Chile, alone with photographs of their disappeared loved ones in their hands." Heartbreaking.
I just now tried dancing with my Grief and Anguish and I started in My weeping ilamentation to Begin moaning and bringing forth sounds from deep within me. A new way of coping skills and expression of the inevitable Journey that Lies in Wait for us ALL
Iain Little I remember in the 70s in Italy a family of political refugees from Chile stayed in my house for a few weeks. The ran away from the Pinochet fascist regime. They were killing all political rivals in football stadia.
He also dedicated this song to the mother of disappeared in Argentina. He allowed the mothers of plaza de mayo walk into the stage during a concert while he was singing this song. 30,000 people disappeared in Argentina between the ages of 15 and 60+.
I've heard this song the first time in the evening before the day, when the album "Nothing Like The Sun" came out in Germany. They played this track in a radio broadcast, where new albums have been presented. I have been so seized by this song, that tears ran in to my eyes. The next day I immediately went to the record store and bought the album ...
It is impossible for me to listen to this song without weeping uncontrollably. Thank you, Sting, for eloquently and beautifully bringing this to the world. "One day we'll sing our freedom." Peace out.
I heard this song for the first time when I was 14 years old. I was deeply impressed by the shocking lyrics that I can not imagine from the music. I respect STING which makes such a song.
Saludos Luis Alberto. No sabía sobre la historia de la canción. Si noté que en una parte canta en español. Casi al terminar la canción, hay un cambio de ritmo, en el cual se me eriza la piel (uno, por el arreglo musical; otro, quizás por la impresión del tema de "bailar con los muertos".
When you hear the lyrics, music, instruments, medley, rhythm, harmonizing, etc., it makes you crave more. Good God man, here we are in 2021, why can’t today’s musicians create audible beauty like this that stirs the soul?
Mi País Chile sigue sufriendo esto , que jamás será superado... Señor Sting mis respetos hacia Ud. Un músico y cantante increíble que llega a mi corazón. Gracias por su dedicación. Hoy el mundo está en un cambio profundo , gracias al estallido social"
Sting has always been one of my favorite artists. His lyrics are literate and powerful, and he does indeed have a social conscience. I love his solo efforts as well as the work he did with The Police. This particular song never fails to make me weep.

STING is by far, the most AMAZING ARTIST ALIVE!!!! He has been my all time favorite since I was like 4 years old. He is beautiful and all of his songs are beautiful and they something to him. This brings back so many memories. He is all I listen to and will never stop. I would give anything to meet him. His concerts are the most incredible times I have ever had in my life. He is an ABSOLUTE Dimond in the rough.
I was too young to understand this song when it first came out. Now that I'm a grown up and have actually read a little about what actually happened down in Chile...God bless all the relatives of the missing.
Grande el Maestro Sting. Su musica es maravillosa, pero con esta canción se gano mi respeto y admiración, no solo como gran músico y compositor sino como humano.
A diferencia de muchos artistas nacionales como internacionales no se quedó indiferente a la tragedia que vivió Chile durante la dictadura militar! Gran artista y gran persona!
Las canciones de Sting me encantan! Y esta canción la escuchaba en mi país (Colombia) tengo la oportunidad de escucharla en Chile y se siente un fuerte escalofrío! Después de tantos años de desaparecidos en este país! Que algún día descansen en paz todos aquellos que desaparecieron y sus familias!
There are very few songs that reduce me to tears in this digital age but this is one of them. Until you've lost someone you love you can not know what he is talking about. Just the thought that you will never see them again is unbearable. They exist now only as a spirit.
@Luigi Raimondo Pomo So many bad people, Luigi. This makes me very sad BUT we can never, never give in to tyranny or oppression which are very evil things. This song inspires me to keep fighting even with tears in my eyes. Palermo, huh? Home of beautiful architecture, great food (mmmm....arancina), and very beautiful people! Mille Grazie, Luigi. It was nice to "meet" you! Sii sicuro e felice!
@Luigi Raimondo Pomo No I do not know Sepuveda's work. But I found an english translation of Rebel stories. I will let you know what I think. Thank you for the recommendation. Hope you have a great day!
Still relevant after all these decades. How many (grand)mothers, aunties, cousins, sisters, wives, (grand)daughters & nieces dance with missing (grand)sons, nephews, cousins, brothers, husbands & uncles nowadays in the Gaza Strip & even victims of lynch mobs & police violence in the U.S.?
this would have to be my personal favorite song by sting. as a kid growing up I always wondered why I was the first born Canadian out of a Spanish family. then I found out my father was a political prisoner and tortured by Pinochet. this song holds a very special place in my heart lets me know where I come from and what my family went through
Wow! I recently went to Vancouver. Many people forget the Indigenous people or immigrants like they do here in America. Your story is amazing. Thank you for sharing. I would like to see a book or movie covering this topic.❤️
I do my bit for your Sting for years. A bit is I try to protect birds of the Amazon, but for over twenty years have tried to protect the Amazon forest. Thank you for the awareness, Sting.
I so agree and thanks for your reply Richard.ife. Sting has been my. Mini hero. his words and voice speak for all of us. I am a mother and I have danced alone and with my daughter too. I My internet connection just skipped a heartbeat.. Not yet into a cardiac arrest🔮🔮
I still weep when I listen to this song. Four decades ago my best friend a young and brilliant labor lawyer and poet disappeared. His body was never found. Three decades ago I was abducted by military intelligence agents and detained for three months. Unlike my best friend and thousands of other desaparecidos I was surfaced and released. Members of my family, friends and comrades danced for me and saved me. Now a new dictatorship/dictator is emerging. The good fight is not over. Let's keep dancing, dancing, dancing. Dance with your wives, with your daughters, with your mothers and sisters..
Violeta Filipina te admiro por tu valentía y por la pena y dolor que debes haber pasado, ya sea por tu propio dolor o el que sufriste al perder a seres queridos. Aquí tienes una admiradora.
Its been over more than 40 year since our cousin got tortured to death at Villa Grimaldi. After his death our family had to flee Chile. We are spread out in the whole world. Just a month ago my mother saw his cousin (brother of the murdered one) for the first time over 40 years. His mother 'danced alone' for years after his death. Until she passed away in Australia 20 odd years ago.
I feel you. One of the closest and most important persons in my life (my mom) still struggles not only with the poverty inherited by the right-wing policies specially for people that (for many reasons) cannot adjust to the labor market, but also with the trauma of terror, persecution and loss, to the point of having delusions and paranoia associated with it. She has even been living on the streets for a year, out of poverty and madness and I still don't have enough money to help her. I've heard she's not the only one. I have had to become used to live with a broken heart, in the face of many chileans, even young ones, who are still saying that either everything was justified, or that we should forget it already. How could we forget, if the wound is still alive, if there's still no guarantee that this will not happen again? I send you a hug from the distance, from your family's land, and from someone who is still part of that now invisible community that made us the target of selfish and powerful people to persecute and terrorize.
I am son of the Chilean dictatorship, I was brought up as an obedient son, Never get into trouble, Let alone politics, Never saw or heard anything, Specially in the news, I was told we were in war with Marxism But also I was told that we were free, Nothing could have been further from the truth Thousand of my people dead, just because of their ideas, and also because of being poor, As a country, we have no appreciation for human life in every single way, But we are the “best economy in Latinoamérica”, Uneducated, physically and mentally ill, We are into a deep relationship with deception, We don’t want to see nothing that shows out purulent past, We are no longer citizens, Actually, we never were, Just consumers,
I visited Chile in 1990 whilst serving in the UK military, listened to this song throughout the trip (6 months) ............very profound and made me think every day I was there.
Todas las dictaduras son horribles amigo, unas más que otras pero todas son horribles. Ahora en Chile sucedió algo raro, por así decirlo, y no es por justificar nada, pero la dictadura de Pinochet buscó el bien del país y lo logró, Chile salió adelante con las políticas que se implementaron. Chile fue un modelo para varios países. Lamentablemente en el camino se cometieron abominaciones que se cometen en cualquier dictadura y eso sí no es para admirar
Lamentablemente hoy en Chile no hay dictadura, pero la indolencia de los presidentes frente al terrorismo en la Araucanía los iguala o empeora , son muchas las personas que han muerto, inocentes padres de familia y ahí ningún cantante o líder de opinión se pronuncia
My eyes are starting to well up at the end when the music became up tempo, as I imagined dancing one by one with all of the relatives and friends I've lost over the past 28 years...
Such a terrific song, a song that ticks so many boxes: its melody, its lyrics and the emotional range that manages to take in grief, hope and protest. Can you imagine Elton John or David Bowie pulling off anything like this?
Seven minutes that simply flies by. Timeless has a dual meaning. Gentle, soothing, sad, and uplifting. Who played that beautiful solo at the end? That's perfection.
This is a song for mexican woman in 2021... Im mexican, since 2018 we are dancing with the missing, with the dead... we are dancing alone.... this is an anthem for us...
De verdad por eso se dió su dedicación como parte de su campaña en contra de la dictadura y la guerra en el mundo y por algo Sting es un artista que tiene siempre su preocupación por todo lo que pasa en el mundo y éso es realmente un gran apoyo
One of my favourite songs from Sting. Like espacially the part at 05:30min. Good bless all "Desaparecidos" all around the world and from all totalitarian governments. Rest in Peace! Let us form a better world.
GRACIAS Sting por no cerrar las mentes de los chilenos con esta música que nunca se podrá callar .. desde el cielo viejito lizandro aguirre tienes justicia
When I open RUclips this song of Sting enters directly into my soul and after thousand times of listening my mind again want to-do listen this song! God bless Sting and his empathy for women and soldiers both of them are haunted by wars!

ASTONISHINGLY ACCURATE, TODAY.
STAY SAFE PEEPS.
Good analogy @LisaLee-g5m
To think Sting also has another album entitled "History Will Teach Us Nothing". Hmmmm
The God's justice is good enough, don't you think,my friend.
Sting is the only dude who made music in the 70's and early 80's that still lives up just as well in 2022, over 40 years later.. the amount of respect i have for this guy is beyond anything.

So agree
I wouldn't say the Only dude but I get what you're trying to say. There aren't many great artists like Sting who created beautiful art that still resonates...today. But Sting is one of the very best of them all.
"Can you think of your own mother dancing with her invisible son?" This line always sends chills down my spine...

Clayton Morris is mentioning this song in his eulogy of Kissinger (the RUclips channel Redacted).
Danke ich war vielleicht schon lange in der Welt 🗺

You were on the right side of history many times. Bravo artist.
Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes!

Until you've lost someone you love you can not know what he is talking about.
Just the thought that you will never see them again is unbearable.
They exist now only as a spirit.
So true the part about until you loose someone you truly love is key to gettting this.
This song still has weight and significance now just as it did then.
@Luigi Raimondo Pomo So many bad people, Luigi. This makes me very sad BUT we can never, never give in to tyranny or oppression which are very evil things. This song inspires me to keep fighting even with tears in my eyes. Palermo, huh? Home of beautiful architecture, great food (mmmm....arancina), and very beautiful people! Mille Grazie, Luigi. It was nice to "meet" you! Sii sicuro e felice!
@Luigi Raimondo Pomo No I do not know Sepuveda's work. But I found an english translation of Rebel stories. I will let you know what I think. Thank you for the recommendation. Hope you have a great day!
@Luigi Raimondo Pomo How are you? I hope this note finds you well. Have a great day!!
@Luigi Raimondo Pomo It looks beautiful there! Spero che vi divertiate!!
We'd all like to believe a 'popular' musician of today's time would have the courage ....sadly there aren't any.
Gracias Sting por esta obra 😢 para que nunca vuelva a ocurrir
Not if the new administration has it's way and continues with Project 25. Everyone but maga will be dancing alone.
Still relevant after all these decades.
How many (grand)mothers, aunties, cousins, sisters, wives, (grand)daughters & nieces dance with missing (grand)sons, nephews, cousins, brothers, husbands & uncles nowadays in the Gaza Strip & even victims of lynch mobs & police violence in the U.S.?
Stunning in every way....Sting is a one of a kind musician..bravo
This song easily can take an award as the most melancholic song of all times!
this would have to be my personal favorite song by sting. as a kid growing up I always wondered why I was the first born Canadian out of a Spanish family. then I found out my father was a political prisoner and tortured by Pinochet. this song holds a very special place in my heart lets me know where I come from and what my family went through
💜💜💜💜
You just got me a bit closer...Thank you...
❤️
Amazing
Wow! I recently went to Vancouver. Many people forget the Indigenous people or immigrants like they do here in America. Your story is amazing. Thank you for sharing. I would like to see a book or movie covering this topic.❤️
I do my bit for your Sting for years. A bit is I try to protect birds of the Amazon, but for over twenty years have tried to protect the Amazon forest. Thank you for the awareness, Sting.
A master piece, thank you Sting
I so agree and thanks for your reply Richard.ife. Sting has been my. Mini hero. his words and voice speak for all of us. I am a mother and I have danced alone and with my daughter too.
I
My internet connection just skipped a heartbeat.. Not yet into a cardiac arrest🔮🔮
Hey if Amber placed a turd into Johnny's bed. I would say she is in deep shi:. Maybe I am wrong about this but I do not think so.
Cogito, ergo sum.
I still weep when I listen to this song. Four decades ago my best friend a young and brilliant labor lawyer and poet disappeared. His body was never found. Three decades ago I was abducted by military intelligence agents and detained for three months. Unlike my best friend and thousands of other desaparecidos I was surfaced and released. Members of my family, friends and comrades danced for me and saved me. Now a new dictatorship/dictator is emerging. The good fight is not over. Let's keep dancing, dancing, dancing. Dance with your wives, with your daughters, with your mothers and sisters..
Violeta Filipina te admiro por tu valentía y por la pena y dolor que debes haber pasado, ya sea por tu propio dolor o el que sufriste al perder a seres queridos. Aquí tienes una admiradora.
Saludos de un hermano vecino brasileño debajo de un Gobierno tan horrible cuanto el de Pinochet: Bolsonaro.
Mi tio tambien deparecio por 3 meses. Pudemos traer lo ha Australia despues, pero nuca estuvo igual.
This is an INCREDIBLE story and YOU, my dear are INCREDIBLY! Stay strong! I am so blessed to hear your journey!❤️
I mean tot how you are an INCREDIBLE WOMAN!💟
Got to be one of the greatest songs ever, missed by many.
Its been over more than 40 year since our cousin got tortured to death at Villa Grimaldi. After his death our family had to flee Chile. We are spread out in the whole world. Just a month ago my mother saw his cousin (brother of the murdered one) for the first time over 40 years.
His mother 'danced alone' for years after his death. Until she passed away in Australia 20 odd years ago.
Necyn 😭❤
I feel you. One of the closest and most important persons in my life (my mom) still struggles not only with the poverty inherited by the right-wing policies specially for people that (for many reasons) cannot adjust to the labor market, but also with the trauma of terror, persecution and loss, to the point of having delusions and paranoia associated with it. She has even been living on the streets for a year, out of poverty and madness and I still don't have enough money to help her. I've heard she's not the only one. I have had to become used to live with a broken heart, in the face of many chileans, even young ones, who are still saying that either everything was justified, or that we should forget it already. How could we forget, if the wound is still alive, if there's still no guarantee that this will not happen again? I send you a hug from the distance, from your family's land, and from someone who is still part of that now invisible community that made us the target of selfish and powerful people to persecute and terrorize.
@@togetheras0ne My love to you.
I am son of the Chilean dictatorship,
I was brought up as an obedient son,
Never get into trouble,
Let alone politics,
Never saw or heard anything,
Specially in the news,
I was told we were in war with Marxism
But also I was told that we were free,
Nothing could have been further from the truth
Thousand of my people dead, just because of their ideas, and also because of being poor,
As a country, we have no appreciation for human life in every single way,
But we are the “best economy in Latinoamérica”,
Uneducated, physically and mentally ill,
We are into a deep relationship with deception,
We don’t want to see nothing that shows out purulent past,
We are no longer citizens,
Actually, we never were,
Just consumers,
Christ our True King have mercy on all of us who endure in believing that Justice is both real and inevitable. peace from Iowa, Necyn.
A bit bittersweet to watch and listen to this video on Mother's Day.
Thank you, Gordon! It is such a sad and haunting song. And it is still happening all over the world. Never forget...!!
I love this...it brings so much emotion. One of Sting's finest songs..
Y'all are the damn best. I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me, thank you. How are you doing it is nice meeting you here btw
04.06.2021.
And I'm still listening to this.
Sting's such a piece of golden song
Full of life and hope. We need to dance together with our families again
I visited Chile in 1990 whilst serving in the UK military, listened to this song throughout the trip (6 months) ............very profound and made me think every day I was there.
Прекрасный вокал, браво👏👏👏
Hermoso y muy emotivo video...PARA QUE NUNCA MÁS EN CHILE SUCEDA ALGO IGUAL A LOS HORRORES DE LA DICTADURA. Gracias Stin
Todas las dictaduras son horribles amigo, unas más que otras pero todas son horribles. Ahora en Chile sucedió algo raro, por así decirlo, y no es por justificar nada, pero la dictadura de Pinochet buscó el bien del país y lo logró, Chile salió adelante con las políticas que se implementaron. Chile fue un modelo para varios países. Lamentablemente en el camino se cometieron abominaciones que se cometen en cualquier dictadura y eso sí no es para admirar
@@novshuju Eso no justifica que los militares y la CNI hayan torturado, abusado y asesinado.
Lamentablemente hoy en Chile no hay dictadura, pero la indolencia de los presidentes frente al terrorismo en la Araucanía los iguala o empeora , son muchas las personas que han muerto, inocentes padres de familia y ahí ningún cantante o líder de opinión se pronuncia
В 91 году до дыр кассету гоняла, слушая его альбом. Волшебная музыка, ностальгия.
My all time favorite artist! I love Sting!!!! ♥️
Peace is the way to be together. War does not solve issues but war creates problems.
Hello Barbara
How are you doing?
It's nice meeting you here!
My eyes are starting to well up at the end when the music became up tempo, as I imagined dancing one by one with all of the relatives and friends I've lost over the past 28 years...
So beautiful tune, definitely a tribute to all those women... so moving. Thank you Sting!
What a beautiful elegy. Only Sting could do it as perfectly as this.
Such a terrific song, a song that ticks so many boxes: its melody, its lyrics and the emotional range that manages to take in grief, hope and protest. Can you imagine Elton John or David Bowie pulling off anything like this?
One day we'll sing our freedom.
Sting stands out for human rights. Peaceful protest
Such a beautiful but sad song...
Magic!!! Marwellous musicians. I never stop loving this song.
Seven minutes that simply flies by. Timeless has a dual meaning. Gentle, soothing, sad, and uplifting. Who played that beautiful solo at the end? That's perfection.
One of my favorite videos and songs. Heartbreaking 💔 and moving how so many families are affected by tragedy of inhumane tyranny. Thx 🙏
Sting and Branford Marseilles...the winning combination
Thank you Gordon, for giving music a higher purpose. Reaching hearts and minds through the arts.Peace.
one most beatiful sog never written...am Chilean
This composition makes me want to shed a tear/makes me want to smile. 🩶
Y'all are the damn best. I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me, thank you. How are you doing it is nice meeting you here btw
This is a song for mexican woman in 2021... Im mexican, since 2018 we are dancing with the missing, with the dead... we are dancing alone.... this is an anthem for us...
De verdad por eso se dió su dedicación como parte de su campaña en contra de la dictadura y la guerra en el mundo y por algo Sting es un artista que tiene siempre su preocupación por todo lo que pasa en el mundo y éso es realmente un gran apoyo
One of my favourite songs from Sting. Like espacially the part at 05:30min. Good bless all "Desaparecidos" all around the world and from all totalitarian governments. Rest in Peace! Let us form a better world.
Amen my friend.
los chilenos sufrimos una dictadura demencial
+elizabet bello Mentira. Pinochet salvo al pais de caer en una dictadura comunista.
Aníbal Domínguez ESTE MUSICO A PESAR DE SER MI FAVORITO, NO SABE EL DAÑO QUE HACE EL COMUNISMO. POBRE IGNORANTE.
Aníbal Domínguez...Pinochet no salvo el pais.... mato personas... asi de sencillo
Hauntingly beautiful
The all-out best ever singer/composer/ of modern times for me. And bloody gorgeous, too!
The most beautiful song, yes, still listening to it!! Love me some STING!!!!
This song still brings tears to my eyes when I hear it
GRACIAS
Sting por no cerrar las mentes de los chilenos con esta música que nunca se podrá callar .. desde el cielo viejito lizandro aguirre tienes justicia
When I open RUclips this song of Sting enters directly into my soul and after thousand times of listening my mind again want to-do listen this song! God bless Sting and his empathy for women and soldiers both of them are haunted by wars!
Love Sting.... You can't put a Label on him because he's so Diverse. A True Original!
You knew it was good when it came out. The passage of time shows a songs merit. Never saw this on mtv. Prob didn't have guts to show.
