The Police, Canary In A Coalmine



this song is just awesome!

I really love The Police, and this song is not very known, and it's a shame because this song is very nice, and the hole concept of it is very simple!
the rhythm seems funny, very energetic and it's really contagious. i listen to it very often and everytime I do, I listen the rest of the week! i really suggest you to listen Sting in one of his and Police's best songs!
Once more my dad showed me this song and this band.


a bit of culture: the people who work in coalmines sometimes need to work very deep on the ground, like 200 meters or more! so the deepest they work, less oxygen they get, and because of that they need to have masks to help them breath. but you don't feel when you receive CO2 instead of O2, and you feel weak in a second and in the other you are falling down. So they usually get a Canary, because their lungs are smaller than the humans, so the trick was if the bird was alive the oxygen was good but if he felt down they needed to use the masks.


Hope you all enjoy this one!

Love,
P
