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

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.

1981, 20 yrs old, in the military, early afternoon walked into a lounge barely opening for the day and a song was playing kinda low but I got hooked on the beat. Asked the bartender the name of the song, says, "Walking On The Moon, the Police"..... never forgot, love this song to this day in 2024!

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.

On this day in Music - 04 Nov 1979 The Police released 'Walking on the Moon' as the second single from their second studio album, Reggatta de Blanc which became the band's second No.1 hit in the UK. Sting has said that he wrote the song when he was drunk one night after a concert in Munich. The following morning, he remembered the song and wrote it down.

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!

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.
