MESSAGE IN A ВОТТLЕ
Оriginаl music by Sting
Performance by The Police
Bass perfomance by Sting
===========================================================================
Listen to the song to find where Sting puts the tacets.
A masterpiece of playing for the song, not just to
show off chops.
What really makes this bass line is the chorus section where
Sting plays a reggae riff.

О Death, where is thy sting-a-ling-a-ling, О grave, thy victory?
The bells of Hell go ting-a-ling-a-ling, for you but not for me.
