The Police - King of Pain (rare music video) video free download
(HQ digital stereo remaster) Before anyone accuses me of fraud, this really is the official music video released in Australia for "King Of Pain". It was shown on the iconic ABC music programme "Countdown" on 11 March 1984. It is as an edited version of The Police's album promo film "Studies In Synchronicity". The ABC's "Countdown" was so powerful in the music industry in the '80s that it alone could make or break songs and artists - no video, no promotion, no chance. So A&M had little choice but to put this together in order to promote this song in Australia, the fourth single from the "Synchronicity" album. That makes it an official music video. I don't know if it was shown anywhere else in the world.

C'est bien filmographiquement parlant une "rare video" - par contre, le titre dont je me souviens est "Studies to synchronicities". (Chansons apparant: Walking on your Footsteps, Synchronicity 1, Synchronicity 2, Mrs Gradenko, Mother, Every Breathe You Take, enfin: la conclusion de Synchronicity 1 (King of Pain n'apparaissait pas)). Cette séquence que j'ai vue a passé il y a à peu près quinze ans sur MCM.8 years ago

esse som é marcante , tem toda uma drama idade no inicio depois a bateria entra e dá uma força incrivel , o the Police tinha uma ousadia em tentar realmente fazer algo que fosse diferente , por isso é uma das bandas que mais me fascina , sao de uma autenticidade e bom gosto ao meu ver unicos .8 years ago

Not the most well done music video, but fairly intriguing imagery and in-line with the themes and iconography of the album. I'm still mystified why this fine single never received the video treatment, but now I can rest easy knowing that something was done for it. Thanks for the upload and the lore.8 years ago
