The Police - Message In A Bottle

Thank you my friend SGT (Join to see) for sharing the music video of The Police performing "Message In A Bottle" in honor of the fact that on September 29, 1979, The Police had their first UK No.1 single with 'Message In A Bottle' the group's third Top 20 hit.
I saw and heard them play this at an outdoor concert at Darmstadt Germany in 1982, I believe.
The Police were excellent performers IMHO.

"Message In A Bottle" written by Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner CBE, known as Sting,
Lyrics
"Just a castaway
An island lost at sea
Another lonely day
With no one here but me
More loneliness
Than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair

I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle
(Message in a bottle)

A year has passed since I wrote my note
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep me together
Love can mend your life
But love can break your heart

I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle
(Message in a bottle
Oh, message in a bottle
Message in a bottle)

Walked out this morning
Don't believe what I saw
A hundred billion bottles
Washed up on the shore
Seems I'm not alone at being alone
A hundred billion castaways
Looking for a home

I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle
(Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle)

Sending out an SOS..."
