Young Forever- Jay-Z

Is it just me, or when this starts (the first 0:30) or so, does this sound exactly like a Police song? Sounds a bit like Sting, and the guitar over the synth chords just complete it for me until the beat kicks in.

The only Police song that I can think of which sounds vaguely similar is Don't Stand So Close To Me because of the starting organ, but apart from that? hmmm... Oh and I don't like the Jay-Z version, by the way.

Song is Alphaville - Forever Young, but with different vocals I suppose. The voice in that crappy Jay-Z song sounds indeed like Sting.
Here's the original:

Yeah I wasn't saying it sounded like a specific one, it just reminded me of something I'd hear from them. I'm not a huge Police enthusiast; if you would have played me the first 30 seconds only, I would have absolutely guessed it was The Police.

Arctic Monkeys - When The Sun Goes Down

Absolutely awesome. Specially when performed live, and specially when the crowd is up to it:
