Originally released in 1979, The Police played this song to kick off their 2007 show and you could hardly tell what year it was--they sounded fantastic. I was going to post an amateur video of them from Bonnaroo 2007, but I decided to post this since I'd never seen it before.
It's from a BBC series from 1978 - 1981 that showcased up and coming rock bands called "Rock Goes To College". This is the first time they performed the song live, on Feb 21, 1979.
BONUS: Here's the Sting version from "The Secret Policeman's Other Ball" (1982). Great music and Monty Python: what more do you need?
