I met Stewart years ago, and didn't know who he was.  I went on and on about myself, as a composer.  He listened to my work, talked about my ideas.  And never once said 'Do you know who I am?'  Later, when I learned who he was, I was shocked at his humility and patience with an arrogant young guy like myself.

Amazing- a rocker who doesn’t look like death, can still speak and shows interest in others. A revelation!

The thing I love most about Stewart is just how REAL and unpretentious he is. In that way, he was always the perfect foil to Sting’s loftiness. I mean let’s face it… Sting could get a bit ostentatious at times, but then there’s Stewart, bringing it all back down to earth and keeping things grounded. He looks great for a 71 year old, and he’s still sharp as a tack and can still pound those skins like few others can. One of the top drummers of all time. Just a wonderful, talented, interesting and intelligent person. May he live to 100 or more.

The guy is a genius, killer drummer. He's been a massive influence for me, and I'm a bassist. His drumming with the police, is a superb work!!

Actual Stewart Copeland: "He's not arrogant at all."

Stewart is clearly one of the coolest guys on the planet... Smart, funny, talented, humble. Loved this

One of the greatest drummers of all time, Stewart Copeland. Living legend.

I love Stewart's intelligence, humor, and humility.

Just watched Rick Beato's interview with Andy Summers.  Phenomenal musician.  Both Andy and Stewart redefined how rock was  played in the 70's. Both had the freshest idea of how to play their instruments differently than any other at the time.  Stewart's high hat works were phenomenal and Andy never played bar chords.   Sting was amazing at playing syncopated bass lines while singing totally different melody.  One of the best bands of all time.

Saw The Police in a club in 1978. Still listening today at age 62.

2 things that never get old : the police music and hearing Stewart in interview...

I'm glad Stewart gave Andy the recognition he deserves. He is sometimes a bit overlooked between the brilliance of the drummer and the "bass playing element", but he was incredibly important to what "The Police" were. What a miracle trio they were.

I'm very impressed with how humble, intelligent and down-to-earth Copeland is, and how congenial and articulate he is in the interview.

what a well-spoken and down to earth dude

So great to give Mitch Mitchell the shout out he deserves.

Stewart Copeland, one amazing, original, totally unique drummer. Praise him, praise him.

What a fantastic bloke Stewart Copeland is. Witty, down to earth, charismatic, and full of humility.

Stewart Copeland is one of the most interesting interviews, ever.  Totally humble !

This guy has "chops". Great tenor to his voice,  positive attitude, respect for art and respect for his elders. Very impressed.

I just felt my teenage self as a 58 year old come alive with memories of my fav band of the 80's....wish I could have seen them once
