I voted OTHER

"De do do do, de da da da" has always been my favourite Police song and I dare say it always will be.

Not far behind would be "Walking on the Moon".

I agree Nikki, and here's some more of my favs:

Spirits in the Material World
Every Little Thing She Does
Invisible Sun

All were major hits in the UK, although out of the choices I went with 'Every Breath'.

Just love the "...how my poor heart aches....with evvvvverrry step you take' bit :D :thumb:

My favorite is "Synchronicity 2". The Police was one of these groups that never made a bad song.

I would have to vote for Every Breath You Take!
Wasn't that a song about stalking?

DE DO DO DO DE DA DA DA
Was also a good song!

It's a toss up between "Spirits in the material world" and "Every little thing she does is magic". Since neither was on the list of choices, I have decided to vote for both :p

I voted for "Wrapped Around Your Finger"...such a powerful hit in my opinion.

"Every Breath You Take" is a close second!

Every Breath You Take.

Yes, Milani, he (Sting) claims it was about stalking his ex, but it's still a great tune! :)

Just for the record, tho', I cannot stand the song Roxanne, and even my friend Roxann doesn't like it. ;)

I've voted OTHER. I'm a devoted fan of Police, and I think there are a load of great songs more (message in a bottle, so lonely, walking on the moon...). And my favorites:
Invisible sun, Spirits in the material world and BRING ON THE NIGHT... (OK, OK, I know that's from 1979).

Message in a Bottle is my all time fav, but I know it was 70s.

I chose other and voted for Can't Stand Losing You. That song had a huge impact on me. I haven't listened to it in a long time, but I first heard it when I was in high school(early 90s). I was going through a relationship that was failing at the time and it really hit me emotionally. Every Breath You take was one of the first songs I remember hearing on the radio though. A true classic.

I'm a big Police/Sting fan. My favorite has always been "Wrapped around your finger". But I like all of their stuff, I nearly played the Syncronicity record album to death. They had good videos too. Truly classic! :clap:
