I came here to find this comment. I was not disappointed

I sincerely wish that concept were closer to us as a collective people.

absolutely. I'm trying to do my part. the prospect of war is serious and grim, because ... human lives ... but working for peace can be fun!

I did, I heard it for the first time a few days ago. I hope it does not lead into full scale war ❤ from Australia 🇦🇺

So did I. Paris France here.

PS: from Cologne, Germany 👽🤖🤓

So did I. I was a teenager when that jet fighter shot down the Korean plane with its passengers and crew over Sakhalin island, a couple of years before this song came out. Making Peace is stronger than making war. 🕊🇺🇦🕊❤🕊🇷🇺🕊 From France

Me too

Yes brother from an Australian born German. Peace too you.

We love a lot our children. I love all the children of the world. For them please don't do the war.

What is sting saying that Russians don't love their children??? England doesn't love children the world allows child trafficking the people love the children the people who like to think they rule us DO NOT

Thanks. I hope you know that good, true Americans over here don't believe the American media or government. We know it is all corrupt. Even the European government and media. We don't want to be the agressors. But you could say we are a conquered country. Conquered by the elites.

Tons of lies about Russia. And millions of deceived people in the world. If Russia perishes, this world will have no hope left. I see it this way. How long could Russia wait and endure spitting? How many people died during all this time in Ukraine at the hands of Ukrainian nationalists? And as soon as Russia clenched its fists, tons of hatred flew into it, patient mother. And it would be nice to hate what is just, no, this hatred comes from a monstrous lie! ... And the refusal to treat children with cancer - is this not Nazism? World has gone mad. Humanity has no hope. Many countries have proven that they are biorobots, some kind of monsters.

Being against war sounds noble, but does not describe reality. Being against violence, does not mean to wait for something bad to happen and then respond. The police for instance catches criminals before they can act, to prevent harm from happening! This too can involve violence, sad but true! In the case of Russia having an operation in the Ukraine, the Russian view is, that they feel very much under threat by the USA. America has something that is called "The Monroe doctrine", it forbids any distant great power to put military forces into the western hemisphere! In the case of Ukraine, the coup d'etat that was openly sponsored by the west in 2014 brought the Ukraine basically under US rule, Hunter Biden, the son of Biden even works at a gas and oil company there! The US and NATO are not the only problem, as the Ukraine has a government that consists of people who are openly Nazis. These are politicians who on camera said that all Russians, Jews and Germans, etc. should be killed! Ukraine has named streets after Nazi criminals and even erected statues for mass murderers who were Nazis. The AZOV Battalion, the Right Sector and Aidar are just some of the fruits of Ukrainian Nazi mentality which was also openly enforced by western nations as for instance Scott Ritter admitted. The puppet government in the Ukraine tried to cover this all up by installing a Jewish president who is an actor. Before he became president the man played a president in an Ukrainian Tv Soap Opera. Then suddenly a new political party surfaced in the Ukraine with the very same name as the show! Surprise! The candidate was the actor from the show! Western powers supported heavy militarization of Ukraine, which lead to 14.000 deaths in the Donbass region which was clearly against the coup d'etat. The US installed Biological Laboratories in the Ukraine to research biological weapons, which goes against the Geneva Convention and is a crime against humanity! This all lead to a reaction of Russia as the Superpower next door...

Sergio, if I may; it's not the grown up Russian children from the 70/80's making any mistakes, whatsoever. It's their leaders, as well as the western world leaders playing the game of divide and conquer. No one blamed American adults when the USA invaded Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan et al....and we still haven't found any weapons of mass destruction! "Oh well, never mind, our mistake (thousands of unnecessary deaths, and oodles of stolen raw materials, later" ;-D

@@tuesday199312 of course you may. That's my point! How many of those leaders were kids/young adults in the 70/80s? I'm not referring to one specific nation's children.

Omg , this song came into mind instantly .I am 54 .

Same to me. I'm 54 years old, born and living in Germany. I bought the album "Dream of the blue turtles" when it was released at 1985 and listened to "Russians" the first time at age 17. Already at this time I was deeply moved by the song. When I heard it again last week on radio - more than 35 years later - I started crying bitterly and had to drive my car to the right, because I was too shaken to drive and had to calm down first.

Same, I am turning 50 this summer. This situation is an unbelievable nightmare. Did you see Sting's recent posting of singing it now as an older man? Brings so many feelings. Let's visualize this ending now, and the world coming together to help Ukraine heal and rebuild, but also doing the same for victims of cruelty elsewhere too. Peace.

I know this is going to sound satirical, but if they nuke your city, you will have mere seconds yo panic and then you're gone There is a Dutch song, called "de Bom" by Doe maar, that's about not worrying about a bomb. Whether America, Germany, Russia throws them, it will not chance that you should focus on your loved ones, instead of money or profits. He sings: I need to get my diploma, before the bomb drops. Need to get my healthinsurance fixed, before the bomb drops. But if the bomb drops.. well then I'll lay there in my fancy suit, cheques and diplomas in my pocket, my nice vocabulary and healthinsurance all covered.. under the rubblr of the skyscrapers in the city, next to you. So let it drop then, it'll happen anyway, it doesn't matter if you run or not. I'd like to get to know who you are, i've never gotten to know you and I'd like to know who you are."

Speaking of it's all over again, the west invaded Europe and Africa and Russia was there to clean it up while you bark at Russians for doing their job, of protecting their own. This happened over and over again yet no one learns a damn thing about anything. Especially today. NATO invaded Europe and is attacking Russia while magically Russia is an invaidor on it's own lands ... Same was applied to Serbia and bunch of other who NATO is in war with. NATO invades and kills natives magically those natives are the aggressors and are invading themselves. Do world a favor and just f-ck off.

The Cold War never truly ended. It just simmered down for 25-30 years and has only truly heated up this past decade again. It's no surprise whatsoever that this Cold War song stayed relevant. It will forever remain relevant as long as we Earthlings continue to recognize borders and sovereignty over land and resources, instead of progressing and sharing, co-operating, advancing as one people.

I’m going to really go meta and blow your mind here, and tell you that the chorus of this song is actually a song by Sergei Prokofiev called “Lieutenant Kizhe” which is about a military cover up and is a satire about bureaucracy. This song was written BY a Russian, almost 100 years ago, to mock the military.

We have innumerable problems as a global society and in microcosms in the various countries within and along their borders. I fear we are accelerating to total annihilation and extinction. I don't think there are enough people who remain that choose to see the good in their enemies any longer. I've been arguing against fellow "leftists" why punching Nazis is morally bankrupt. And they don't understand these principles. Countries will be ripped apart. And the world will be no better off.

@@SocialistStrike you’re not a leftist you’re a progressive. You don’t believe in socialism, you’re a caricature of it. “Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered” remember? Under no pretext. That means that punching Nazis or shooting bad guys is the right thing to do, even if you don’t like it.

Then why send them to be killed on a battlefield? War is so wasteful, young people die and old people cry. Call back your army, leave Ukraine, leave Europe.

Then invade the United States if that's so, and leave the Ukrainians alone. It is the poorest country in Europe per capita, it was never threat to Russia.

I will end up saying that the "404 country" had every chance not to create this conflict, my God, they sat down at the negotiating table just a few weeks after February 24, but alas.

@Dude yes, Russians do want wars

And still Feel!

We all do my friend... That’s why I’m so sad that we can’t just all be friends and build a paradise together...

of course you do. sting knows that.

We know that, it was a song of feeling for the people. I was a kid when this song was released, and as a kid my feelings are the same as they are now about this song- and that is in countries where leaders make blank decisions for everyone I hope they love and care about the children, because those decisions affect kids, not just adults, economy, etc. Often is seems countries are at war with each other for a myriad of reasons and the children may be the ones to suffer, if not physically, emotionally. Any country.

Amas a Stalin asesino

@@selenaricci9488 El hecho de ser ruso no lo convierte en amante de Stalin, así como el hecho de ser alemán no lo convierte en amante de Hitler. ¿Tú amas a todos los líderes políticos que pasaron por tu país?

things like this always make sense... unfortunately that also means that the human kind is still dumb enough to start wars and hate each other for idiotic reason

That's often the case with good songs. Even if the specific event they're describing isn't happening anymore, certain themes are still relevant.

Not now ! I was disapointed when I saw him singing with maître gims :)

Zoomer Generation=No Imagination

There's no need to. We already have music like this...which is that same music. I mean, this song especially aged like fine wine or milk (depending on you POV) seeing the situation.

A few months ago, I listened to this song, and thought: "Nowadys, this song is out of fashion, and it has lost its sense". Now, it has recovered all the sense again.

Traducete in italiano per favore

Well Putin doesn't seem human... he's a monster! They should play this song to him ‼️

Are russians the human being like you? That is, are you also ready to come with weapons to a neighboring country to kill children, women, old people and turn flourishing cities into ruins????(((

Votre commentaire décrit avec exactitude le drame de la guerre froide. Il faut qu'il y ait une prise de conscience collective afin de protéger les familles de cette guerre afin que plus aucun enfant ne soit blessé.

This is the wrong way of posing your question. I hope the Ukrainians love their children too. Ukraine is not a real nation. In Russian Empire, any people who lived near its edges were called Ukrainians (from Russian u kraia (near the edge). So any Russians who lived near the edge of the empire were called ukrainian. They will tell you bullshit like they invented the wheel or that the ancient Egyptians learned techniques for building pyramids from ancient Ukrs.

@@ildart8738 We live in the 21st century and people are still arguing about who owns a piece of land or which people belongs to which country and whose country is the best. And nobody seems to notice that they don't even destroy their so-called enemies but the whole planet. There will be so many challenges to mankind like climat change, hunger or resource shortage that fucking nationalism should be obsolete forever and ever because we can only solve this problems together, not against each other. And I say this to all responsible politicians and their people.

Praying for everyone. God in His mercy help our leaders.

Cause nothing changed in russia

Nothing has changed here either

What nonsense!!! What a lie!!!! How many lies in this world on the righteous and such sincere faces!!!

Tons of lies about Russia. And millions of deceived people in the world. If Russia perishes, this world will have no hope left. I see it this way. How long could Russia wait and endure spitting? How many people died during all this time in Ukraine at the hands of Ukrainian nationalists? And as soon as Russia clenched its fists, tons of hatred flew into it, patient mother. And it would be nice to hate what is just, no, this hatred comes from a monstrous lie! ... And the refusal to treat children with cancer - is this not Nazism? World has gone mad. Humanity has no hope. Many countries have proven that they are biorobots, some kind of monsters.

I mean, I agree. I’m down for it

Правильно сказал! Биология одна и Создатель у нас один! Все проблемы от толстосумов - они разделяют и властвуют!

Only Jesus the Christ has the power,truth and wisdom to stop Satan having his influence on people in this world with the intent on getting them to destroy each other. The real Jesus is the true king

@Phelan The true God (Hebrew Yahweh) created Lucifer/Satan. Satan has free will to agree to obey or disobey God as all people also do. I believe God knows the end from the beginning dependant upon actions/ine tions of Angel's and people. I think a concept of pre- destination based on all lives is an erroneous understanding of biblical scripture. God is outside of time,he therefore knows the end from the beginning based on what happens.

@Phelan I think God knows the consequences of all actions when they happen/are carried out by angels/people. However, we can't be free unless we desire to choose his loving influence by the Holy Spirit(Gods spirit) in our lives. Because of the intense rebellion against God it would appear the consequences of these actions will create what is written about in biblical scripture. However,there is hope promised for those who want to follow Yeshua the messiah. The alternative is horrible but many people do not want to repent and follow Yeshua.They prefer the rebellious sinful lifestyle. These people will be rejected by God in eternity because they have rejected his ways and hope of salvation found through following Yeshua. Yeshua bless you

@@HappyCatholicDane People in our country are being killed not by Putin and other Russian leaders. People are killed by usual russian men. They throw bombs on our cities with peaceful people, they make our buildings fall and our people die. I see no difference.

@@tarasheichenko1572 I am truly sorry to hear about Ukraines troubles. Hope you and your loved ones are safe. You have my sympathy and my full support. There is no doubt about who is the aggressor in this conflict, and it isn’t Ukraine. You and your countrymen have every right to defend yourself, and that includes killing Russian soldiers when necessary. What I am also saying. Is that the Russian people have been lied to and coerced into the war. That a corrupt and oppressive regime have taken over their country. Lots of Russians are partly to be blamed for this, but a lot are not as well. In fact a fair amount are against Putin and the war.

Now I hear from many Westerners that as children they were terrified of the Soviet Union and had alert drills there. I was born in 1976, and at school we were never intimidated by foreign countries, on the contrary, we were taught to be friends with all nations. It's very unfortunate that this is happening...
