Fantastic musicians.

They were fighting so much by the time they recorded Synchronicity that they would show up to the studio and different times to record their parts. This documentary says that the first thing Sting would do when he showed up was to erase what Stewart had added the previous day. Sting wanted a simple drum beat and to use a drum machine on Every Breath You Take. As a contractional compromise, Stewart was allowed to add a high hat beat.

Finally saw them on their last tour, they were still awesome.

The first band I really “got into” and have never tired of them.
B side of Ghost in the Machine is a personal favorite and so much of that album resonates today… they had so much awesome stuff outside of the big hits.

I also think that was their best album.

That opening drum on Spirits In The Material World is fire. First 45 record that I ever purchased.

The Police are my second favorite band.
Glad I got to see them on the reunion tour....

Videos like this “world’s most played song” remind you of how much the producer and studio personnel add to great songs.
I will add that every time I hear a band doing a cover of that song from a distance, I can’t tell if they are doing “Every Breath You Take” or “Stand by Me”. I then sing other song softly to myself along with it.
