Lyrics:
Giant steps are what you take
Walking on the moon
I hope my legs don't break
Walking on the moon
We could walk forever
Walking on the moon
We could live together
Walking on, walking on the moon
Walking back from your house
Walking on the moon
Walking back from your house
Walking on the moon
Feet they hardly touch the ground
Walking on the moon
My feet don't hardly make no sound
Walking on, walking on the moon
Some may say
I'm wishing my days away
No way
And if it's the price I pay
Some say
Tomorrow's another day
You stay
I may as well play
Giant steps are what you take
Walking on the moon
I hope my legs don't break
Walking on the moon
We could walk forever
Walking on the moon
We could be together
Walking on, walking on the moon
Some may say
I'm wishing my days away
No way
And if it's the price I pay
Some say
Tomorrow's another day
You stay
I may as well play
Keep it up, keep it up
Yo yo yo yo

Me: What instrument do you play?
Sting: Bass and vocals
Andy: Guitar
Stewart: The Saturn V
🤣🤣
Heavy and powerful instrument... Start engine Stewart!
Technically the F1 engine of the Saturn V, but I digress....
It'd be a great pick up line 😂😂
The ears
Early 80;s walking home from my girlfriends house listening to this on the Walkman feeling 10 feet tall loving life.
Phil Bogle I remember it well
@ Mr Gordy ... Why ? You weren't following Phil on that particular night were you ? !!! lol
gheddi right you have Billie Eillish lol
That Sony Walkman with auto reverse!
I
I love how, across every music video by the police, Stewart will always drum on some random object. Class.
Lol totally
well beyond brilliant for posterity !!!
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.
@@jasonhearn9844 unbridled brilliance ===== SC !!!
I am a guitarist and bassist but have always been mesmerized by Stewart Copelands drums. What a great group of musicians.
Listen to demolition man once, and you will listen all day.
Coming from a Rush fan, they are in my top 5.
@@batman1169how bout zz top😏
Bang on mate, arguably one of the best bands ever .
Same here.
Stewart Copeland is one of the best drummers of all-time!
Not one of...
Ginger baker king of them all idc what anyone says! Rip hammer of the gods
Yea this verse drum pattern is so weird and different, it sounds so good
He is one of the greats,hard to see past the best ever neal Peart..
unusual take on reggae...respek!!!!
These guys were on a whole different level, rock style influenced by punk, reggae and jazz. Absolutely brilliant!
One was a jazz/60s rock guitarist and the other two were prog with Egyptian influences and jazz
Yeah I was into these guys, and as a kid, on a couple of occasions, I swore I saw that drummer maestro on the streets.
But I could've been right innit
@@jamesbong4928 Copeland n Sting famously reside in N.Y with Sting openly admitting he would Walk the streets at night looking for coke dealers because he thought it made Him play better... I'm glad he is rid of those Demons these days....
Walk it out
@@jakelewis4882 I repeated that in a reggae beat innit
This proves that music doesn't have to be complicated. Less is more.
yes dude😉
I'm sure it's much more complicated than it sounds and that an average person wouldn't be able to replicate the sounds on offer-particularly Stewart Copelands drumming and percussion.
There's few elements, but I guess they (or at least a couple of them) are more complexified.
What they did between 1978 and 1983 is just unbelievable. What a band. So much space for afterthought in their music, but still you don't miss a thing. Minimalism, energy, attitude and skill.
Great comment right here and well said. I guess we're showing how much older we all are now.
...and no one died.

Agree: absolutely amazing group; had the privilege of seeing them play live at Aylesbury Friars in 1983.
Put it on 2x speed, running on the moon.

Hugely underrated comment :)
holy fuck that was so funny HAHA
hahahahahahaha
its hard to believe this song is 40 years old.
It's hard for me to believe that I'm 46 and stuff like this from my childhood is 'classic' now :)
Yeah but the Police music aged well. But look how old and obsolete music from 1939 was in 1979....
Timeless classic!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes sir. Time marches on. Times they are a-changing
You're wrong 'cause the time does not exist
2024 anyone

Please stop. None of us has a choice of years, we all live them one at a time, same as you 😂
@@MezzMcGillicuddy1No one was complaining but ok
Hi
Absolutely 😎
One of Stewart Copeland's greatest performances and one of the Polices best songs. Too bad these guys didn't stick together longer, such a great band!
Because.
.sting ...apparently was an asshole.....hes genius....
@@user-ji6hl9el9mThe Police 🚔
Stings ego got too big
Complicated , seems Stings has a huge ego , but the ego of the other two is not left behind, what loses is the music. Amazing dummer and a guitarrist so criative too.
@@user-ji6hl9el9mapparently a log of good bass players become kind of jerks
This song has, by far, the most articulated and perfected drumming ever recorded in popular music
I agree! I came on here to listen to just that : )
That majesty is Stewart Copeland. The only American member of the band.
The drumming is out of this world so artistic especially when combined with the video
that sounds like something Butt-head would say to Beavis
@@egreenbery haha great comment. Like one of those moment of clarity conversations they had
Bob Marley would be proud of this song.
The reggae undertones in a lot of polices songs.
Feel it every one of your senses.
Completely agree. The 2s and 4s and that bassline is reggae all over. This is their best tune imo
I must listen to bob marley next thanks
You def feel that... like your on the islands 🏝 same with every little thing she does... the genius of these 3 men.
They're an honest ode to reggae music. This song for example has that soul. It has soul to it that everyone can relate to and feel inspired by.
for a second i thought i was really the only one to notice, and was desperate reading the comments like, am I the only one that sees the fact that most of their songs are reggae?
Been heavily into the Police lately. Stewart Copeland is a drumming genius! Very creative.
one of the best drummers at his time actually
Saw them live. It was. Amazing. Still have the t-shirt from 2004 when they got back together.
Growing up as a teenager in the 80s this was my favourite band & song, was the 1st record I ever bought and still got it over 30yrs. Classic!!!
Same.
Us kids from the 80's had the best music!!!!!!
The whole album is a classic.
awesome rob, great memories
@@Craig332 Most definitely
Is it just me or this song a masterpiece
Just you Army
@@franckdebank the 27 millwho watched this thinks its a masterpiece
Yes it is a masterpiece.
1st song i ever bought ;)
@@FLAVCO yes same thing here, this was the first song I heard from them and still my favorite one. Man do I miss the 80s now more than ever before 🤔
Most people have forgotten the Police's older songs... The Police were one of the greatest bands in history....!!
Harry Prater coz he went amazon 😃 ? Ahhyaha
All I listened to in middle and high school in the 80’s !
That is a fact. Listen to the other way of stopping. A gem!
I saw them on the 30 anniversary tour in 2007. They sounded fabulous live. Every Little Thing She Does was a standout as I recall.
Yup......peanuts....fav tune
Being a space nerd this is the theme song to my life
Eclipse 2024 !!! Who’s here???
Yes! Here ❤
I thought invisible sun was a more appropriate musical choice.
I'm listening, age 69, Music with a capital M, forever, three brilliant musicians.
6 string bass
The drummer is hilarious. In every video this dude just wiggles around like a nutso. Real talented too.
And he’s the only Yank!
That is the incomparable Stewart Copeland.
One of best drummer ever
They had the best music of the 80's but the corniest videos..
yeah but hes adhd hyper and annoying you try living with him on tours and in the studio lol
I love how drummer beats on random stuff instead of actual drums.
Don't forget Sting playing bass on a guitar!
Spoopy MoonCritter Consider it done!
Best musician of the three
Copeland is a legend
Like Evil Avocado's dad
I saw Sting last night in Sydney. Wow, that guy oozes talent. Still sounds and looks great. His show took us all back in time and reminded us what a big influence The Police and he as an individual artist has been.
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.
boas escolhas
Sting makes it sound so easy when he sings this. He's an absolute unit of a vocalist.
Never try karaoke but try to make it on your own....my best friend Thomas and I are walking on the moon for a fabulous time . ..ruclips.net/video/TSxtnWmvRHI/видео.html
@Rhizosphere as long as the haters can make unbiased arguments , which is kinda raaaareeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
@Rhizosphere thats how it rolls :relieved:

I absolutely love the Police. The reggae roots and haunting notes, just amazing.
They'd be accused of cultural appropriation nowadays wouldn't they xx
@@asbocazbo unfortunately yes they would. Ah the good old days, when people weren’t so sensitive and knew how to have a good time.

I have had this song in my head for days! The Police were so great!
*Fun fact* All the space missions that ever failed were due to drumstick-related damage to critical components

Ikr! In message in a bottle he had no drums to play either. Shame. Lol.
Are you kidding ? 😮 He got to play on a Saturn V, man ! 😯 He ain't ever gonna get better drums than this ! 😅 Honestly, he's one lucky boy ! 😂
Right? That always make me feel a bit uncomfortable

Never get bored listening to this. Everything just clicks brilliantly. Will always be a masterpiece..
My favorite Police song. Just had to turn up the volume and it sent a chill down my spine. Legends.
Stuart Copeland, Andy Summers and sting, made lots of great music. Still listening 40 years later and always will.
One of the best basslines in music history - so smooth
Oh Yes 👍
The bassline is this song is cool and accurate.
It's 2024, I am a 47yo m, gen X,
and I only just now realized that this is a reggae song.
no this is a rock song
same....and the moon landing footage was faked.
@Kevin-lt8lp no its not its reggae and Ska! The Police was hugely influenced by Steel Pulse amd Aswad! Get the facts straight
I love the sounds Andy gets from his guitars. He is my fav of the band.
Just reacquainted myself with this song after so many years. Didn't appreciate just how clever and beautiful it is. The drums especially are played like a lead instrument while the bass compliments and the guitar provides the beat. Great group, great musicians.
Great observation 🥰
It really is quite standard reggae drumming. There is one drop, steppers and rockers. Then, of course they throw some rock style drumming in the mix...
@@razakza There is too much syncopation and rushing the beat, to be a real reggae drumming.. but it worked for them, so... I like what they did
Wow... I never thought about it like that, I just heard polyrythms. Very cool role inversion.
The day I knew my uncle died from cancer, I didnt know what to do, gone into my room, turned the radio on and it was playing this song... There is no link between the lyrics and what happened that day, but it always remind me that cloudy and rainy day when for the first time in my life I had to face the loss of a loved one.
He's not walking on the moon, but he walking the Stairway to heaven.

Greatest bass tone of any strat ever.
This tune is poppin' fresh over 40 years later. 😎🏴🇬🇧
Oh gawd.... 40 years
Fer sure fer sure, I love my cherished great memories of growing up. Wow, music, it was the best. Tell me an artist from today's music, now I will compare them to 1 of my favorite from the 70s. I'll bet that I get you every time! 😏 ✌💜🤘🧡
England makes the best music from🇺🇸
Yes! Poppity, pop, pop, pop. xxxooo
They just dont make them like this anymore .. once, and gone forever
I absolutely love this song. I mean that splendid bass line, those drums, and Sting’s stellar voice… simply amazing 😍
One of the best 80s tunes ever
Those fabulous Police brothers.
This was 1979!!I was 18 yrs old and this takes me back like it was yesterday.I even remember which pub I was in when I first heard this on the jukebox!
It just reminds me of great times of waiting for the weekend to come and then just going out and having a good time.Great times!!.
i dont know why but this comment made me cry. thank you for sharing your memories. ❤️
I was 9 lol but loved it.
Loved 1979 and I can smell it when I here this - completely freezes the time.
Same here, having a great time, girls, music,beer & motorcycles, a freedom many of today’s generation will never understand
Yeah man, I was also 18 when this was out, brilliant track..
The Police progressive rock tried something different. Injecting Reggae into they're sound. And it f'ing worked great!
New wave!!!! Ska and reggae with a crisper sound to it.
@@erinduncan8833 Sometimes a little bit of jazz.
*their...

If you are here,you have great taste for music ❤
In case you didn't realise this,this song and music track from The Police was sung and made exactly TEN years after the American astronauts went to the moon in 1969!!😯😲
This song always gives me that feeling of mystery and happiness. Also to think its a 30 year old song, makes me appreciate the trends at the time.
That's amazing because that's exactly how I used to feel, listening to this in my bedroom on my record player at 10 years old in 1979; mystery and happiness - and maybe a touch of "what does the future hold"? Anyway - it's good stuff.
That's exactly how I feel about this song.
33 year old song now :D
Timeless music. Has haunting memories for me.
38 Years old dude
I listen to this song almost every morning before I get my day started, and it never fails to get me all jazzed up to conquer whatever I have planned. I wish there were more up and coming artists trying to push out music like The Police, Depeche Mode, ect...
To those of you that had the chance to live consciously through the 80s and hear all these incredible artists in their prime, I'm jealous in the best way. I'm just so thankful I can still listen to it and pretend I'm in a different time Era 💕
@@tommyzeus2802 wah.
@@tommyzeus2802 i was born one year after you and understand what you mean. Childhood in the eighties was sweet, playing with 8bit videogame in the house and then biking around, teenage in the '90,underground music scene promise to fight for a better world, the famous 3rd millenium should have bring so much freedom and opportunities....you can almost feeling it was coming closer... Then..... Who stole our future?
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...
I’m older than all of you lol. I was born in 1961 and remember their first hit Roxanne during my senior year in high school.
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
Does anyone else get instant goosebumps whenever you hear the first three chords of this song? love it x
No
Of course
It's one of those songs where you just have to stop and listen. I was listening to the song on the radio in my car the other day. I stopped and listened to the song, before I got out of the car to go to work. Not many songs do that.
@@acidphaze YES! Great way of describing it , and i too have done that where a particular song is playing in the car and i have to sit there till the end pulled up before i get out lol.
@@jro3213 I totally get it! Thats great!
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.
The electric mistress.
The music of THE POLICE touches deeply my soul! 🥰❤🥰
their creativity wasn't apparent to me when I was a kid, but now, its the thing that amazes me, all three are very creative in different ways and it all works out great for a common purpose
The guitar on this track sounds so clean and clear! Andy Summers makes this song incredible!
Absolutely!!!
This is why I love so much The police!! The guitar sound just sound so refined if you compare with other rock bands!!
JFSTG The Cure’s Robert Smith sounds kinda similar but more post punky.
White man reggae done right , as a Jamaican I've gotta give credit to the Police .
T Jones dude i think the same jajaja
The Police and the R.H. Chili Peppers, and Sublime to a degree, are the only ones that can pull it off and sound good
Third Herd
Was this Summers or Sting inspired?
I know sting did
@@prettynoose8497 when did the chilis do reggae?
UB40 cant be forgotten too
One of the most influential 3 piece bands in music history. Each member brought a level of pure talent to the band that few groups could boast on their best days. That sound/grove/blend of genres that The Police mastered is so ubiquitous to them, they have a profoundly unmistakable sound. Sting may be the greatest bass player ever. Andy Summers guitar work is sublime & grotesquely under appreciated Steward Copeland's cerebral/introspective approach to all aspects of drumming has put him in a league few could hope to join. If you're old enough to have lived it, I'm envious. To those like me who found them long after their hay day, congratulations on opening yourself up to some amazing music.
❤
One if the most intracate drumming songs of the 80s
Thank God I grew up in the era when MTV was cool and I could watch the Police video's when I got out of school!
Lol
Yes I agree we were definitely blessed to have experienced those times. I'm so glad I was a teenager back in those days,I wouldn't trade it for anything. Time machine anyone 🤔

The drums are insane
What instrument do you play?
Me: uhm, Saturn V?
Reminded me of Scott Pilgrim for some reason.
F1 bells.
The stereo
Anyone could play a Saturn V. It's not rocket science!
Starting at 3:27 must be the only "double bass drum solo" in the history of pop music. Mesmerizing.
Police absolutely one of the greatest. I have many memories listening to them. This one is my favorite though.
Sting: Fender Stratocaster
Andy: Fender Stratocaster
Stewart: Saturn Stratocaster
Definitely in my top five basslines of all time. Also the drummer is a genius!!
They have such taste, and sense of humor. I was traumatized when they broke up.
I hope my legs don’t break walking on the moon
I love how rich and punchy Sting's basslines are, coming out of a Stratocaster... gonna have to learn how he pulled that off.
Strat is the most versatile guitar obviously.
LOL. Obviously guys don't play instruments in video. Guitars are not even plugged in (I can't make better jokes about drummer than already present in this thread). Dunno why Sting didn't get any other bass for the video
A Stratocaster is a guitar not a Bass and Sting is actually playing a guitar in this video - not a Bass :D fun facts
This song is perfect 🚩
The lyrics are utter crap. Sorry.

Drummer is God ! Stewart
Yeah, its a great song. Chorus is lovely. All round tune!
This song is a happy place for me. Brings good things to mind! When its tough, I walk on the moon.
Been a percussionist all my 59 years and trying to play along with Stewart while keeping my headphones on and the album from skipping at 10yrs old was highly dedicated 🥵
Another Fun Fact: Andy’s opening chord in Walking on the Moon is the same magic chord The Beatles play in the beginning of
A Hard Day’s Night...

One of The Police's best underrated songs ever! *Giant steps are what you take walking on the moon.*
AKshully, if you were around at the time, this and Roxanne were their first 2 BIG tunes off their first album. Hardly underrated, it's the song that jump-started their career~~~~~

Andy Summers´s guitar sound is transcendent....
Loved how everybody played their guitars unplugged lol. The 80s were a blast....
"And featuring Stewart Copeland on Saturn V"
Plus, Sting doesn't play bass, he just has a regular guitar. Without the amplifier, no one will notice anyway 😀
1979 🙂
The Police are timeless. Love this song just as much now as when it came out.
Can we tip our hats to one of the best rock drummers of all time? Stewart Copeland is phenomenal on this track.
He is a drumming genius here, but also with other countless projects, so many of them where he is hidden behind the scenes.
I wanted to give your comment a like in words brodi... he really is one of the best
Pretty much on every track he played over ! 😁
Totally agree !
Brilliant drummer and percussionist and gorgeous guy to boot !!!
Yeah, this really is a standout Police track for Copeland's drumming.
We will never have music like this again. Miss the 80s ❤
ah ah, maybe true
This Song was made in 1979

What also makes this song amazing is the simplicity. Less is More, and this is the perfect fkn example!!
Wow !! Even in 2023 I’m Still Listening to this Amazing Track at 53yrs Old.
Anyone Else Still Listening to This in 2023 ?
Aug.'23
No. 2024🎉🎉🎉
36 years old and still sounds like it could've been made yesterday.
wouldn't sell today - only 3 instruments, no compression, no doof-doof and the drumming is too eclectic
Totally true
Oh thats right
Id buy it today again although i did buy the album all those years ago
No, they wouldn't be a huge band and let me explain you the reason why: The three of them are great musicians but the formula that made them popular back them was good for awhile but then they became repetitive so that wouldn't last that long, same would have happened with Nirvana if Cobain still would be alive. I think the only band that could succeed using the same formula over and over again is AC/DC, they have a unique voice, a unique guitar sound and even though they've copied themselves many times people still love their music.
The Police nos dejó cinco grandes trabajos de estudio para la posteridad y eso lo seguimos agradeciendo los fans y las nuevas generaciones que siguen descubriendo a este súper trio británico.
I'm a 90s kid I grew on the police through my mother who has pretty most of the police's records I love their music been listening consistently for 30 years and still love listening to their tracks
Stewart Copeland was for the Police what Ray Manzarek was for the Doors.
Someone who was exceptionally good at their instrument, so much so that they influence the overall sound of the band and expand the role of their respective instruments.
This is my favorite Police song, Steve Copeland’s drumming is fantastic and the overall arrangement of the song is marvelous.
Stewart Copeland
Some cool polyrhythms in this song for sure that he plays
It's hypnotic.
They all kick ass, people forget that they were basically a jazz band.
Steve????
I love the way Stewart hits that rocket at the background lol
I will not talk about this beautiful song and this wonderful legendary band, but rather I will talk about the English language that fits music and singing in the world with distinction. Thank you England for the musical mentality ❤.
The 1980 s where the best all kinds came out .
My favorite song from one of the best british bands ever.
You bet.. still an awesome song after all these years by the greatest band of the time n the most magnificent achievement of all mankind. Long live the Police n the Apolllo Missions!
that's good taste!!!
