The Police - Roxanne Live at the 49th Grammy Awards

Venue: Staples Center Location: Los Angeles, California, United States Date: February 11, 2007

By 2007, The Police were riding a wave of nostalgia with their iconic status firmly established over three decades since their prime. Before this live performance at the Grammy Awards, they had released their first new album in over two decades, 'Synchronicity,' back in 1983, marking a high point in their career. The reunion for this Grammy performance came as the band was embarking on their massive world tour, reigniting fans' love and drawing in a whole new audience. What's fascinating is that despite being apart since 1986, their chemistry was palpable on stage, transporting viewers back to the energetic and raw performances that defined their early years. The choice of 'Roxanne' as their live number emphasizes their timeless artistry, and it captured the hearts of both seasoned fans and newcomers alike during that unforgettable night.
