Music video by The Police performing Roxanne. C 1978 A&M Records Ltd. Roxanne Live is a hit song by the rock band The Police, first released in 1978 as a single and on their album Outlandos d'Amour. It was written about a prostitute in southern France. Police lead singer Sting wrote the song, inspired by the prostitutes he saw near the band's seedy hotel while in Paris, France in October 1977 to perform at the Nashville Club. The title of the song comes from the name of the character in the play Cyrano de Bergerac, an old poster of which was hanging in the hotel foyer.

Original 1978 UK sleeve. When we got to Roxanne, we were a bit embarrassed because the song was a bit of an anachronism, because compared with our usual material it was slow, quiet and melodic. Far from saying he thought it was a piece of shit, he said it was amazing. Police guitarist Andy Summers made a key contribution to this song. In a Songfacts interview with Summers, he explained: 'Roxanne' is so identified by that guitar at the beginning - the first verse before he starts singing. It's immediately identifiable. The Police performed this when they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2003. With the exception of a drunken jam at Sting's wedding in 1992, it was the first time they played together since they broke up in 1986 over personal differences. At the ceremony, guitarist Andy Summers joked, I&a. Roxanne is a hooker that Sting is trying to convince to change her d-d-dirty ways.
