i remember when i was lil guy :D i my mom used to listen to it.. she couldnt understand a word of what he said cuz shes bad at english, and i couldnt either cuz i was little, its funny to hear a song witch you didnt hear or think about in like 10 years, and then understand lyrics , such an awesome feeling
i always thought that they were singing; oho i'm a legend, i'm a living legend i am everything you need aq legend for... and thats true because Sting is a legend!
I may have found out this song because of a Hetalia video, but I like the song itself, even if I didn't know about Hetalia. It has such a nice beat, and the voice....
I don't get why people get so angry when others come to a song from a fanbase. Sure its annoying but those comments will just get burried under more comments and other fanbases. Don't be so picky, people like what they like. Now onto the music, I like it alot. Has a nice tempo and tune, something I can just sit and relax to. Maybe even a slow dance?
i came across this song from a hetalia video but i fell in love with it for the lyrics and music not because of hetalia. i think a lot of the other hetalia people here who are here for england should calm down listen to the song for what it is not for what it was used with.
I think this song is not just about englishman in new york, i think sting wants to say that we should be who we are even if we are like strangers in a foreign city
Thank you for uploading this song! But i saw many cityscope of NY. It is annoyed me because this song isnt about NY! it is about a man who fells himself eccentric!!
I agree that it's annoying when people can only respect a song for the context they see it in instead of the quality of the music instead. I agree that this includes Hetalia fans. But /not all of them/ do. Everyone has to hear a band SOMEwhere, think, "Hey, this sounds pretty nice," before it becomes their favourite. What does it matter if you hear a song on the radio or in a TV series or in an anime music video? All that matters is you came to listen to it because you appreciate the music. =)
Hetalia is an anime about nations being represented by people or something like that no idea what does it ahve to do with this song, i only know that this song is awesome
Absolutely inspirational! Sting has shown me more happiness than almost anyone else in my life.
I'm on my way to watch Sting live in concert right now!!
What a supremely beautiful, classy song...In my opinion, this song stands amongst one of the greatest ever wriiten.
yesterday i was in his concert in ''Arena Riga'' (i'm a latvian). I am so happy, because he sang this song too!
Me too, me too. Just re-watched the episode for the third time. It still got to me just as much. Great song though, glad I looked for it :)
I love this song...especially the jazz solo at the end
I loved this song,My dad used 2 play it when i was a little kid.
am ascultato la te cunosc de undeva si acum nu ma mai pot opri din ascultatul ei:)
I love New-York! I love Sting's music! I love English! I love 80's! And exactly i love this song!
Be yourself no matter what they say :)
english speaking musci rarely has SOUL. but many of sting's songs are full of emotions including this beautiful peace. i can relate.
I always love this song. Especially the dubstep kind of it!

It's been almost a year, and I still can't get over the fact that this was used in Doctor Who.
@IASP17 It's a Cuica, Afro-brazilian instrument. You hear a lot of it in samba for example.

I'm also alone in New York in 2009. I walked until dawn alone, nobody asked me nor hello neither good morning.
Not sure about the name, but it was the episode with the Weeping Angels in New York.
Dad raised me good.

I'm an alien and I still cried. TEARS OF PAINNNNNNNNN
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
A gentleman will walk but never run...

I'm actually listening to it in 2014
"I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien, I'm a wizard in a muggle world"
Oh, I'm an alien I'm a legal alien.

Listen to Dolapdere Big Gang's version. Has more warmth to it in my opinion, lovely tune
Who's the soprano sax player for this group? He's great!
Se7en times I put this song as my favorite, but always removed by RUclips. Should it will be the ei8ht?
Be yourself no matter what they say

Growing up I always thought this song was titled "Illegal Alien" XD
@IASP17 I hear it - WHAT is it? And was it in the original recording?
Hetalia is an anime about nations being represented by people or something like that
no idea what does it ahve to do with this song, i only know that this song is awesome
