Stewart Copeland steals the show. I also like the acoustic version of this song.

Ot course, the main riff is iconic.
And, yes the drumming is predictably outstanding.
This song came on the radio when my wife & I were in our early dating days. I had the 1st album & was already a giant fan. She wasn't familiar with them yet. Yet.
She heard the song once & wanted to hear more. My cassette wasn't in the car, so had to wait until next date.
She became a fan for life.
