Today is Saturday, Jan.18, 2025. I am a 76 senior woman, Mother of 5 children & Granny of 4 grandchildren... But this Sting's evergreen makes me happy smiling & appreciating this song in every single aspect - though I am NOT any musician - only a 7year attending student and a graduant of basic music school here, in Bratislava, Slovakia - cca 63- 70 years ago... 😂 And I simply love or feel any kind of a good music - inspired from some heavenly sphere and coming out to our earthly world through a Man's or a Woman's heart and touching other hearts... From heart to heart 💞 THANKS to God, our common Cosmic/Heavenly Parent/Father&Mother/2in1...

Esta canción fue escrita por Sting para Quantin Crisp ..escritor ,actor y contador de historias ´´`racounteur ¨_....un ingles que vivía en NY ...Que por sus modales ingles y como Icono Gay 70s ,,,le contó a Sting lo vivido y como se sentía y sintió al estar en la gran manzana...pero obvio que cada persona siente e interpreta los mensajes transmitidos en esta obra de arte y eso esta bien ...pero también es bueno saber de donde viene la raíz de la inspiración ...saludos y a disfrutar Animo ..Salud
@@duchessofhellTrue! Let's always think of all the strong women and nonbinary folks pushing through hardships and making it work, they're such inspirations to every single human out there! 😎✨
One of the best songs ever written. Elegance, style, jazz, saxophone, lyrics, black and white video. I always ask myself how is it possible to make a song with sophisticated melody like this, when there is a melody inside other melodies and in the end we have a masterpiece.Sting has a total musical taste , his songs are the best, Fields of gold, Seven days, When we dance, It’s probably me, Shape of my heart, They dance alone, Roxanne. And of course there are so much more. We can count and count. I love him, his music stays with me during all my life.
Sting is an absolute genius but my most favourite of all his songs is "Fragile" - beautiful words to a beautiful melody. I would love one day to write as good a song!
The song is deeper than just an Englishman in a foreign place it's about feeling out of place in general and being different but the message is to be yourself no matter what as is sung in the end of this song just beautiful
It is important to notice that this song is about Quentin Crisp (who is the guy that appears on the clip !). He was an English gay icon who emigrated to the United States in 1981. During the war, he was declared exempted because he was gay ; in the US he was occasionally attacked by people for his sexual orientation, but he never seemed to fight back. The song gains deepness when you realize that
don't worry, Branford got way famous off of this, he received full credit...

Branford Marsalis gets plenty, no worries- he is a very well respected. If you listen to the rest of this album, you can hear more of him, and how much fun he and Sting had creating songs together (along with some other musical geniuses). There's even a funny beginning to Shadows In The Rain where he says "Wait, wait- what key is it in?"
" Be yourself, no matter what they say." What a great words... I think, all people should remember it. And of course, the song is amazing and very beautiful
I'm agry with WONDERFUL ""STING"" and ANNA about "BE YOURSEL NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY" . ALL PEOPLE '''MUST MUST" MUST"' REMEMBER IT. I HAVE TWO ""ACERRIME NEMICHE"" (I translate: I nave TWO very badly women) ou hate me very much). I try to go on, like "ULISSE wen he met the "SIRENE" calling HIM with 'SUADENTE, SEDUCENTE and SEXI VOICE" in the Mediterraneo SEA as without Tale care of them, but it's quite impossible di when I met in

@@willritter4076 I was Reading and Reading and Reading again the Sting Song I'm an Englishman in New York. I like this Song so much. Every day when I wake up in the morning, I choose this Song in my smartphone and it seems thats everything Is more beatiful than Yesterday. My English Is so bad. I'm Italian woman from North Italy and usually at SCOOL we study french languages and I study English by mayself. I beg your pardon
After the war in the Balkans, my parents and I found ourselves homeless in a foreign country, sleeping in the back of a truck and just trying to survive. It was during that time, as a child, that I first heard this song, and it instantly connected with me. It captured everything I felt in that moment-lost, confused, and most importantly like I didn’t belong. And even now, more than 30 years later, that feeling hasn’t left me, as I still feel like a stranger. Today, my life is very different. I have a PhD, a wife, two kids, and a comfortable life. But no matter how much has changed, I still find comfort in the little things that tie me to my past-like eating Bosnian burek once a month or visiting my hometown once a year. And then, every time I return here, the same feeling returns... I’ve realized that no matter how much time passes or how much I accomplish in this country, there will always be a part of me that feels like I’m caught between two worlds. And this songs captures is so good... Thank you Sting.
The elderly English gent in the video was Quentin Crisp, who suffered a lot of ignorance and was victimized, but never vengeful, only polite. He was an openly gay man, and the author of The Naked Civil Servant, among other books; he was often reviled and persecuted as a young man, and he moved to NYC for his older years. I worked for his literary agent and had the pleasure of meeting him once and talking with him on the phone many times.
This song was played on air around 2019 and it was actually the first time I listened to it, love the song immediately. This song saved me throughout my undergraduate years from unnecessary problems... This is 2025 yet I can't stop listening
I'm Brazilian and I love Sting's music. Eu sou de São Paulo, Brasil, cidade de Lorena. Ouvindo Sting neste momento. Feliz Ano de 2024 a todos. Abraços!
It is one of the more brilliantly written songs ever. Groove, key changes, percussion fills, chorus over the verse, and the bridge position & melody - OMG
They just don't make music like this anymore. I'm only 18 but I can remember my parents playing sting when I was a child and thank god! Because now I appreciate good music!
Çisem Usta, don't feel sorry. My parents listen to shitty music, but I managed to listen to good one like this. Kids these days can pretty much be autodidact, they can find good music to listen all by themselves.
But people teach them shitty music as good music. They don't have too many options to choose in that way. I mean, I saw lots of people who think Lovefool is JB's song, not The Cardigans...
I agree with Jurek009. "Love Me" is not JB's song either. It was originally written by Natalie Burke, if I remember correctly and it was used in the sims 2 game. Nobody told me that. I found out all by myself. The conclusion is you don't have to listen to the shitty music people teach you to!
Everything in this song ist a masterpiece. For me, as a Saxophone player myself, especially Branford Marsalis´s soprano saxophone is still unmatched today. The warm, smooth tune - what a masterpiece. The reference for any soprano player out there.
I remember listening to this song when I used to live in Finland. All my friends had it memorized and would ask me what he meant with each line. And all I could think was... "I only remember the chorus" :) but after a year of people asking i had the whole song down. Such a good song.
@@nikotakai8796 idk about deeper but it's basically just saying a gentleman will have enough control of his emotions to walk away from a provocation from an enemy but will never run away from the conflict.
I've memorised this one before I learned English, about 20 years ago. I don't listen music a lot, but Stings songs I always love to hear, because they are real, like listening to his soul singing... Don't think Sting will ever read this, but THANK YOU Gordon for "being your self, no matter what they say"! You are 70 already! I hope you will stay with us as much as you want, but time is relentless and "It takes a man" to understand this right - when you go on, know that this world will miss you so much ... God bless you!
From an *Englishman* who has listened to a *LOT* of music to someone learning English who doesn't listen to much music - ruclips.net/video/EeZRdd_1b4g/видео.html The most English song there is & probably on of the most beautiful ever written. Always play this when I'm away from the UK & need to be reminded of home!
Cool. What's your first language. I am revising my French. I can't seem to remember any German from school. Spanish is quite close to English. Also, Italian. But, those are the Latin languages perhaps. German seems quite different. 🤪🤓 It's a proud language perhaps?
Great way to learn English. I forgot. I was supposed to be looking for. French, Spanish. Italian. Songs, also Russian maybe. Portuguese. Maybe just French and English. I am no Superman.
@@pup1008 yes, but we are still sore about WOrld War 1 and 2 here in England. I am xenophobic. I fear foreigners. Particularly Germanic people. Not really bad racism. Just wary of that culture. So it's likely. I did not pay much attention in German class. Guten Morgan. Guten Tag Hola! Bein Nuit. Like in English: pardon in French: Pardon? But, in German the words are quite different from English. Due to the Roman Empire, I thought. Where The Goths, invaded Italy, from the North. Destroying the Roman Empire. As with The British Empire. We were dogged by The Germans, maybe fighting for their dinner. I only met 3 or 4 Germans in my whole life. But there's loads of Polish here in England. I am interested to listen to foreign media. I enjoyed watching Despacio. The Spanish song. It's a fun way to become familiar with a foreign language. Can you recommend any foreign media in German and Spanish?
I wish that pop musicians could bring back this style. Not that we don't like music today but, I can listen to this alot more without getting tired of it.
I know exactly what you mean. A lot of the stuff that comes out is processed to death and just rubbish in my ears and/or is more about an artist's image than sound. Some music is definitely decent but I don't think this type of musicality that was abundant in the charts from the 60s till the 90s will have a resurgence in the foreseeable future...
The fact that it took this long for a label like Frontiers Records to step up and actually bring back some classic rock/pop back to the West proves that the industry is permanently crippled. Music has been homogenized and cheapened to hell and back, and the general consumers have simply lapped it up without any regard for musicianship. It's just a crowd mentality that sadly persists to this very day. Very disheartening.
Music now involves tons and tons of marketing, as was discovered in the 80's or maybe even before. Cyndi Lauper had one great PR machine behind her for the time, but she also put out great music. Now, all you need is a great PR machine to succeed which is why shitty rap artists are a dime a dozen. They all make use of the "G.O.A.T." mentality to make themselves known. And the general consensus for music nowadays is that people think it's processed shit, they just don't bother to broaden their horizons and *seek out* music rather than let it fall into their lap. Crowd mentality will never get old, and good musicians must know how to work that crowd to their advantage, just like how punk rock became a lifestyle. And music is evolving, going through a shitty phase. I look forward to music in the future.
+SuperCruiser72 You must have such broad horizons if you think that all music is terrible these days. Try looking for music you like instead of complaining about what's marketed to you.
I suffered bullying for 7 years and this song accompanied me. I repeated to myself before going to school be yourself no matter what they said. They are really wise and strong words that you have to reach a very low point in your life to understand. if I did that in front of my enemies. when I could but I followed the advice of this song I ignored their comments and passed by them smiling like a true gentleman THANK YOU STING

Брату лет 20, мне и того меньше, а музыка нужна была именно такая.. Добрые воспоминания. Удивляло почему племянница слушает отцовские песни тех лет... Как у них искоренить из души все фуфло внедренное!? Подскажи Стинг💋
Encore hier un jeune homme anglais vous a rendu hommage en devenant champion du monde au Maddison square en entrant avec votre musique, bravo monsieur 👏🏾
The Sting & Marsalis jazz collab period was an entire VIBE😎 … even today. That pairing with Sting’s Vocals and Bass with Marsalis Soprano sax 🎷 just makes me feel better😌
Crazy! I heard this song on a beach last summer for the first time! Can you beleive it! I fell for it immediatly! You can hear all the sounds of NYC and feel it's tolerance. And then, I read the story of the authentic English gentleman in NYC. That man has inspiring life story for all of us who feel different from the rest of the crowd. Thank you Sting for leaving the endless mark of that man.
Oh my goodness, I'm sad you went this long in life without hearing this song! Hope you heard something special in it like the rest of us did. Please listen to the rest of the album if you haven't already, it's fucking transcendent.
Thank you for pointing this out. I strongly relate to this song, especially to being a "legal alien". Even though I feel like a "legal alien" in this world, not only NY. 😂
My parents took me to see Sting in concert at the end of the 80s. I was maybe 8. When he sand this song, the lights, the crowd, the beauty of his voice... Unforgettable.
Wasn't born in the 80s (I know it wasn't the best time), but man it would've been nice to go to a Sting concert around that time. His music's + The Police is just so good
I've seen Sting on stage only once.. in his production of The Last Ship a musical he wrote, directed and starred in, a few years ago. Very interesting and impressive, but I would love to have seen/heard him in his younger years.

Soy Mexicano, obviamente no hablo Italiano, ésta canción me da la sensación de melancolía, soledad y olvido, pero a la vez siento que es una hermosa canción. Saludos cordiales desde Iztapalapa Ciudad de México.
I'm 49 years old, and this is the first time I've ever heard this song. I know Sting, and I know The Police. But never got into his discography. I typed a search for something unrelated and this one showed up with 282M views on it, so obviously had to check it out. What an arrangement! So smooth, so catchy too! Can't believe my ears had never heard this before.
I'd be honored if some Sting fans would check out my acoustic piano & vocal covers of ENGLISHMAN IN NEW YORK and WHY SHOULD I CRY FOR YOU on my channel (click my photo to go there) in tribute to the master. Live acoustic with no autotune. Thanks and pardon the promo.
As a young man i heared this song in 1987 and i don´t liked it. But know, years and years are gone, i love it. It is a masterpiece, a jewel and sting is a great artist.
Makes me wish I was born in the 50s and went living in New York. Also makes me live my current life, being completely content and full of dreams. Fuck, this song is timeless on so many levels.
Maravillosa y absolutamente cautivante, en un salto cuántico regresa uno a los fantásticos 80's, sugestiva, elegante, sofisticada, definitivamente deliciosa. Sting es genial. Gracias.
In the late '80s, when the Soviet Union was cracking at the seams, music came rushing through those cracks. Western music. And amidst this polyphony, I discovered Sting, Billy Joel, Leonard Cohen, Simon and Garfunkel, and many others. You listen to music, look at Sting of the 80s and realize that life is as fleeting as an Englishman's walk in New York City
I was born 6 years after its release, but I grew up with that song. My parents kept playing it over and over again. I connect soooo many memories with it. Love it.
Mid-September 1994. I'm on a business trip in the Moscow region town of Troitsk. The young radio station "Europa Plus" played this song every day. I'm 23, my whole life is ahead of me... Nostalgia.
Honestly one of my favorite songs ever. Doesn't get much better than this. I discovered Sting on my own and wow... he knows how to make music, that's for sure.

Yes. When I was young and this song came out I couldn't appreciate the lyrics like now because being born and raised in Germany I had no notion of the underlying message of the song. Loved the music but today I love this song even more for what it represents.
Every instrument in this track was chosen for maximum SMOOTHNESS
Waow
cant beat some good sex, sax too, lol
Yeah… That soprano sax is killer..😎
Including Sting’s voice which itself is a musical instrument.
Hi Dan, what are you doing here? but,
the instruments are awesome combined.
Thank you Sting and Quentin Crisp for a terrific song and a song for everyone “be yourself no matter what they say”
Quentin is dearly missed.
Rest in peace.

I'm Brazilian and I love Sting's music. Eu sou de São Paulo, Brasil, cidade de Lorena. Ouvindo Sting neste momento. Feliz Ano de 2024 a todos. Abraços!
Feliz 2024! Você tem um ótimo gosto musical 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽....e viva os anos 80!!!!!!!!

About 30 years ago, I used to live in Manhattan (NYC) and it was such a wonderful time. Abraços dos EUA.
It is one of the more brilliantly written songs ever. Groove, key changes, percussion fills, chorus over the verse, and the bridge position & melody - OMG
Also that reggae beat stands out as well.
OMG spurgt
@@RonSafreed "reggae beat"
@@goodmorningkay What would you call it smart arse?
Yes! The bridge is amazing. One of the best.
They just don't make music like this anymore. I'm only 18 but I can remember my parents playing sting when I was a child and thank god! Because now I appreciate good music!
Same with my 26-years-old brother. I feel sorry about who doesn't have anybody to show them those songs.
Çisem Usta, don't feel sorry. My parents listen to shitty music, but I managed to listen to good one like this. Kids these days can pretty much be autodidact, they can find good music to listen all by themselves.
But people teach them shitty music as good music. They don't have too many options to choose in that way. I mean, I saw lots of people who think Lovefool is JB's song, not The Cardigans...
Çisem Usta Bull. There are plenty of options. You have the internet, therefore no excuse not to explore different artists.
I agree with Jurek009. "Love Me" is not JB's song either. It was originally written by Natalie Burke, if I remember correctly and it was used in the sims 2 game. Nobody told me that. I found out all by myself. The conclusion is you don't have to listen to the shitty music people teach you to!
Everything in this song ist a masterpiece. For me, as a Saxophone player myself, especially Branford Marsalis´s soprano saxophone is still unmatched today. The warm, smooth tune - what a masterpiece. The reference for any soprano player out there.
The best thing about this song is the message:
*_Be yourself no matter what they say..._*
Dam right
"Be yourself, everyone else is taken"

I've memorised this one before I learned English, about 20 years ago.
I don't listen music a lot, but Stings songs I always love to hear, because they are real, like listening to his soul singing...
Don't think Sting will ever read this, but THANK YOU Gordon for "being your self, no matter what they say"!
You are 70 already! I hope you will stay with us as much as you want, but time is relentless
and "It takes a man" to understand this right - when you go on, know that this world will miss you so much ... God bless you!
From an *Englishman* who has listened to a *LOT* of music to someone learning English who doesn't listen to much music - ruclips.net/video/EeZRdd_1b4g/видео.html
The most English song there is & probably on of the most beautiful ever written. Always play this when I'm away from the UK & need to be reminded of home!
Cool. What's your first language. I am revising my French. I can't seem to remember any German from school.
Spanish is quite close to English. Also, Italian.
But, those are the Latin languages perhaps.
German seems quite different. 🤪🤓 It's a proud language perhaps?
Great way to learn English. I forgot. I was supposed to be looking for. French, Spanish. Italian. Songs, also Russian maybe. Portuguese.
Maybe just French and English. I am no Superman.
@@MrRobertFarr
Spanish is close to English?
German is & we have some Latin from the Romans but I can't see that "Spanish" is close & I speak both?
@@pup1008 yes, but we are still sore about WOrld War 1 and 2 here in England. I am xenophobic. I fear foreigners. Particularly Germanic people. Not really bad racism. Just wary of that culture. So it's likely. I did not pay much attention in German class.
Guten Morgan. Guten Tag Hola! Bein Nuit.
Like in English: pardon in French: Pardon?
But, in German the words are quite different from English. Due to the Roman Empire, I thought. Where The Goths, invaded Italy, from the North. Destroying the Roman Empire.
As with The British Empire. We were dogged by The Germans, maybe fighting for their dinner.
I only met 3 or 4 Germans in my whole life. But there's loads of Polish here in England. I am interested to listen to foreign media.
I enjoyed watching Despacio. The Spanish song.
It's a fun way to become familiar with a foreign language.
Can you recommend any foreign media in German and Spanish?

I wish that pop musicians could bring back this style. Not that we don't like music today but, I can listen to this alot more without getting tired of it.
I know exactly what you mean. A lot of the stuff that comes out is processed to death and just rubbish in my ears and/or is more about an artist's image than sound. Some music is definitely decent but I don't think this type of musicality that was abundant in the charts from the 60s till the 90s will have a resurgence in the foreseeable future...
The fact that it took this long for a label like Frontiers Records to step up and actually bring back some classic rock/pop back to the West proves that the industry is permanently crippled. Music has been homogenized and cheapened to hell and back, and the general consumers have simply lapped it up without any regard for musicianship. It's just a crowd mentality that sadly persists to this very day. Very disheartening.
Music now involves tons and tons of marketing, as was discovered in the 80's or maybe even before. Cyndi Lauper had one great PR machine behind her for the time, but she also put out great music. Now, all you need is a great PR machine to succeed which is why shitty rap artists are a dime a dozen. They all make use of the "G.O.A.T." mentality to make themselves known.
And the general consensus for music nowadays is that people think it's processed shit, they just don't bother to broaden their horizons and *seek out* music rather than let it fall into their lap. Crowd mentality will never get old, and good musicians must know how to work that crowd to their advantage, just like how punk rock became a lifestyle.
And music is evolving, going through a shitty phase. I look forward to music in the future.
>>>>>>>"Not that we don't like music today..."
Speak for yourself ONLY. I stopped listening to music years ago because it stinks.
+SuperCruiser72 You must have such broad horizons if you think that all music is terrible these days. Try looking for music you like instead of complaining about what's marketed to you.
I suffered bullying for 7 years and this song accompanied me. I repeated to myself before going to school be yourself no matter what they said. They are really wise and strong words that you have to reach a very low point in your life to understand. if I did that in front of my enemies. when I could but I followed the advice of this song I ignored their comments and passed by them smiling like a true gentleman THANK YOU STING
Now you stand tall with your head held high, with dignity and hopefully feeling better
You know who the song is about right & what he suffered in his life? The guy is actually in the film.

Crazy! I heard this song on a beach last summer for the first time! Can you beleive it! I fell for it immediatly! You can hear all the sounds of NYC and feel it's tolerance. And then, I read the story of the authentic English gentleman in NYC. That man has inspiring life story for all of us who feel different from the rest of the crowd. Thank you Sting for leaving the endless mark of that man.

One of my top songs when I was 16-18 years old. The elegance of Sting is almost beyond words. If you love somebody...

Such a beautiful tribute to Quentin Crisp's bravery to be himself, no matter what they say. Sting rocks and is underrated. He's a cool cat I admire.
My parents took me to see Sting in concert at the end of the 80s. I was maybe 8. When he sand this song, the lights, the crowd, the beauty of his voice... Unforgettable.
Wasn't born in the 80s (I know it wasn't the best time), but man it would've been nice to go to a Sting concert around that time. His music's + The Police is just so good
Hello ✋
I was born in 90 and never got to see him live. You're making me jealous.
I've seen Sting on stage only once.. in his production of The Last Ship a musical he wrote, directed and starred in, a few years ago.
Very interesting and impressive, but I would love to have seen/heard him in his younger years.
@Stella nice story and well parents, take care of her daughters taste ;)
This song brings me such a nameless and enormous peace! I am really thankful for this priceless masterpiece. Thanks, Sting!
"Confront your enemies and avoid them when you can, a gentleman will walk but never run" one of the best quotes ever

Does anyone else think that Sting has an almost mystical sound to most of his songs. Something about his voice just sounds so smooth.
Yeah, something otherworldly about his voice, definitely.
Agreed, he deals with deep issues on a large scale, which creates deep sounding music.

In the late '80s, when the Soviet Union was cracking at the seams, music came rushing through those cracks. Western music. And amidst this polyphony, I discovered Sting, Billy Joel, Leonard Cohen, Simon and Garfunkel, and many others. You listen to music, look at Sting of the 80s and realize that life is as fleeting as an Englishman's walk in New York City
