Loved this. Look how happy the Orchestra was while playing this. Stings music is truly amazing.

[Cerucir]

this should have more views - I mean he's an awesome lyricist and he can execute the vocals - he's incredible !!

[wagon]

I love the full orchestra and horn work.

[brinksville]

[pauldewitt]

Thank you. He finally seems to be that. I am sure that when he wrote this he felt every part, but for him to sing that song witha a smile and the force that he showed, he may finally be the king of His pain. Very Good to see.

Love Jo Lawry’s look at the end of the song. It’s like “yes, we killed that!”

There's a little black spot on the sun today
It's the same old thing as yesterday
There's a black hat caught in a high tree top
There's a flag pole rag and the wind won't stop
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
There's a little black spot on the sun today
(That's my soul up there)
It's the same old thing as yesterday
(That's my soul up there)
There's a black hat caught in a high tree top
(That's my soul up there)
There's a flag pole rag and the wind won't stop
(That's my soul up there)
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
There's a fossil that's trapped in a high cliff wall
(That's my soul up there)
There's a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall
(That's my soul up there)
There's a blue whale beached by a springtime's ebb
(That's my soul up there)
There's a butterfly trapped in a spider's web
(That's my soul up there)
I've stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
There's a king on a throne with his eyes torn out
There's a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt
There's a rich man sleeping on a golden bed
There's a skeleton choking on a crust of bread
King of pain
There's a red fox torn by a huntsman's pack
(That's my soul up there)
There's a black-winged gull with a broken back
(That's my soul up there)
There's a little black spot on the sun today
It's the same old thing as yesterday
I've stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
King of pain
King of pain
King of pain
I'll always be king of pain

In the name of ahasha, I love you, Etta Scott Davis.

[SARUBI_OK]

If you heard it with headphones you can hear the voice i the right and the Eco in the left one

[andrewmurphy]

Awesome... but the music was cut off from the Live version!

There is another 30-45 seconds after this where they reiterate the finish theme!

[stefanhubbig-rrcw]

Er kann es einfach. Da kommen die heutigen alle nicht dran

[amandagrant]

Should be the song for the US elections 🗝️🪽🙌

[gordon]
