The Police were an amazing band. They released 5 studio albums and were only around from 1977 to 1984. The had almost no success in the US until their 3rd album. Now every song in their catalog seems to be a hit. They officially broke up in 1986. I loved this band so much that I really had a hard time with this list. My first 2 records I ever bought were The Police "Zenyatta Mondatta" and AC/DC "Back in Black".
Here are my favorite Police songs.
5. The Police - So Lonely
This was the 3rd single from their debut 1977 album "Outlandos d'Amour". It reached number 6 in the UK but failed to chart here in the states.
4. The Police - Murder by Numbers
This was originally the B Side of "Every Breath You Take" and was included as a cassette only song on the 1983 album "Synchronicity".
3. The Police - Walking On The Moon
This was the 3rd single from their 2nd album "Reggatta de Blanc". It was released in 1979. It reached number 1 in the UK but once again failed to chart in the US.
2. The Police - Don't Stand So Close To Me
This was their 1st single from their 3rd album "Zenyatta Mondatta". It was a number 1 hit in the UK and number 10 here.
1. The Police - Every Breath You Take
I know it's been played to death but I still feel like it's one of the greatest songs every written. I still love it when I hear it. It was the first single from their final studio album "Synchronicity". It reached number 1 worldwide. It was a huge hit the summer after my graduation.
