Sting - Spirits In The Material World Lyrics

Stewie is God!!

Heard this in a hotel bathroom

The Police was a great new band in the 70s. But this 1981 album was the beginning of the decline. The 1980s really sucked ass, and I believe the 1980swas the decade that killed rock n roll.

Estoy aquí por Chino Moreno

Ya somos 2 nn

Chino sent me

Chino brought me here.

Same haha

Spirits in carbon 666 6neutons 6 protons 6 electrons

The Mighty Police

Still one of my all time 80's faves!

My favorite Police song

🤘The police ❤❤❤

If it's something we can't buy....

Very much bob marley sounding

If we are as 'spirits in a material world', our will and needs don't count; we are as well as dead.

American Horror story Moment
😉😉😉

Doing my Christmas shopping to this song as I type! #2019

Good bassline

666 backwards...

Brilliant chords, brilliant drumming, brilliant lyrics, EXCEPTIONAL bass line. All in all, one of The Police's greats.

Heard this song for the first time in the car the other day and what grabbed my attention was the synthesizer (i think thats what its called) now im hooked

What happens when the singer/songwriter composes this all alone on his portable demo/drum box. Then sometime later the guitarist and drummer hear it. And within only 15 or 20 minutes of that the song is rehearsed through 2 or 3 times AND recorded, as is on the album. "No time for love, Dr. Jones!"

This bass line drove me crazy when first heard it.

this cover album,was a revolution in 1980,a new decade...the rest,the music,i mean,is lowest quality than the three albums before

Or is it..... de Nile

Christmas 1981! Roger H great times that wil never be again

Amo essa música! =)

long lost way - stick figure somewhat sounds similar they’re both amazing songs

i am into this song!!!!!30 years still cooking

What unbearable crap this song is after listening to "When the world is coming down.....". Not even comparable. Like two different bands. What happened to them after Zenyatta?

l'album più bello.

Where were you in 1981

Missing ecological songs

I have too listen 6' 7' 8' 9 times to take in the leyrics' vibes and energy of the song.

I for one wish this song were a little longer.

Thank you andrew lauder.

Is no one going to talk about how the chorus is literally the Lick?

Excellent band,song & upload timeless thankyou ;-)

Great bass, great song, great album, great band!

Obra de arte, sin duda - Work of art, no doubt.

All my life i thought it was 'I stares into material world' lol! good luck unhearing that!!

My dad had this record. When he'd go to work I'd pop it on the record player. Mom would come home, in Spanish, BAJALE VOLUMEN!!! Lower the volume 🤣🤣🤣🤣 love you mom and rest Easy dad. I miss you and thank you for the records and great taste in music.😔

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I just love this song for how it sounds, but I only recently actually paid attention to the lyrics and love it even more.

Putas rolotas bellos tiempos joven y bellos tomando caguama con el Rive mi carnal Jorge y uno que otro colado el Manolo rulo nima

bout the time my balls dropped. first album i ever bought.

THE BEST EVER.

This song reminds me of Richard Ramirez

Only band I air bass to. First album I bought and still better than the garbage today.

Great artists, each of them. Together, pop music history, and magic. The Police are one of the greatest.

SPIRITS IN MATERIAL WWW.

This song and " Invisible sun" are great heavy bass songs.

Brilliant track,excellent album and group.

Not to loose focus

This song goes out to Luke Perry rest in peace I heard the song and his dream on 90210 Donna was dancing on the table we lost a lot of people in 2019 2019 almost over

I saw Donna dancing on the table oh 90210 in this song and we saw his sister Erica

R spirits ,,,,,

Yeah, Sting could write.

Love it. Why does it evoke a Kate Bush vibe?

We are also humans in the phyysical..

T. I. M. E. L. E. S. S

A song for two ghosts in love to get laid to. In reference from "American Horror

Great Under-rated Track...😎👍👍👍👍

New Wave Rules!! ✌✌

Remember the keyboard is on the up beat. Tricky beginning. I think The Police did this on purpose to play with their fans.

The verses sound like all three are playing different time signitures....but it sounds great...

we are eternal spirits in this material world!!!!!!!!!!!! our house is out there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stewart Copeland 👍👍!!

Calm down miriam it isnt that good. Wait it is.

This is still the *bleep* in the 2k19!

Sting predicted the future in these lyrics ....amazing.

American Horror Story hooking me up with this banger 👻

Sting is a f***ing genius! The biggest music mind in the modern history

song speaks truth too the soul.

Astounding masterpiece

The symbols on the cover look like the predators wrist device counting down lol

2019 still listening.😄

Why shouldn't listen to good music?

Sandra mack sure sounds like what's going on with world today!!!!

Nice...great to hear!

Saudades . ...

It’s always “Back to the Future”!

I'm a spirit of the material world bout to ride up out of earth

Sting💪😘

When I hear this song Tate from AHS pops into my mind seeing how happy he is with Violet :)

AHS season 8 episode 7...

Good beat to this music 80s tunes u rock

I'm happy American Horror story brought me here 😌 this song is a bop

SAME!!! I grew up to this music, but I heard it with new ears as it played at the end of the AHS episode as Madison left murder house. Crazy right?!?

Yes😌😌

Al final se ablando y esas dos almas se encontraron fueron felices , me quedé pegado con ese capítulo de AHS apocalypses

I first heard this song on Beverly Hills 90210. I know I'm lame!

Tate and Violet 4 ever!!!!

Most dangerous thing in this world is a humiliated man

I love this song...so much

I can hear Bob Marley's influence in this.

1:04-1:05
again, I agree with
sting's P.O.V.

Not heard this for yrs then heard it on American Horror Story

Ghost in the Machine, my favorite Police album. Recorded on the Caribbean island of Montserrat

This music is so cool and EPIC! X-)

Loved The Police growing up at school and had all their albums lol. Fantastic mix of reggae, jazz etc.

got the Vinyl record from my mom in 1983 .. love it forever..
