ryanr's Journal: The Police

The best Police song is "So Lonely".

If you don't agree, then you're high. Did you mean to be high? Because you are.

No you're high

[turg]

It's "Invisible Sun"

Re:No you're high

[ryanr]

Are you kidding me? Weak. "Invisible Sun" was a preview or the kind of crap that Sting longed to produce during his solo career.

Re:No you're high

[turg]

Well, actually, I'm not much of a fan of Sting or the Police. That was just the only song that every really caught my interest.

Re:No you're high

[gmhowell]

There are bits of Sting's solo career that make me long for 'Invisible Sun'. Blech!

As far as best? Depending on the mood I'm in, it's either 'So Lonely' or 'Synchronicity I'.

'Demolition Man' is pretty fun. Well, hell, there's a reason I have 'Message in a Box'.

Oh, but Synchronicity II. My god is that good. Packed like lemmings into shiny metal boxes!

So Lonely. EXCELLENT song.
Sync I EXCELLENT song.
Every Little Thing She Does is Magic, EXCELLENT song.
Walking in Your Footsteps, EXCELLENT song.
HEY! What about "When the World Is Running You Down, You Make the Best of What's Around"??????
Message in a Bottle, you get the picture?

They were a damn fine band.

Re:No you're high

[ryanr]

Yep, there ya go.

I've got the boxed set. All their stuff w/extras only takes 4 discs.

Re:No you're high

[ryanr]

Yeah, don't know what happened. Happens a lot, I guess. Some awesome band... guys are great together, can't hold it down on their own.

All I want is to be next to you!

[mekkab]

Man, MUCH laminate flooring got laid to that song.

Synch 1 & 2, Rehumanize yourself, but I think Outlandos is my fav album ('cept for "born in the 50s"... fucking old bats)

But you guys have totall missed it; Murder By Numbers! C'mon; y'al are sleep walking this shit to leave that out!

Re:All I want is to be next to you!

[btlzu2]

yessssssssssssss. mbn-1,2,3!!!!!

Re:All I want is to be next to you!

[mekkab]

I remember while being home from college (or maybe this was right after senior year HS, before college) getting "Ghost in the Machine" and "Synchronicity" in the used tape bin for $2 a pop. Man, talk about fucking BANG for the BUCK! I rocked those tapes out hard.

Re:All I want is to be next to you!

[ryanr]

Also good songs (Next to you, Rehumanize..)

I can't immediately place Murder by Numbers.. I'll go look it up.

But you have to admit

[elmegil]

Be My Girl/Sally is the funniest.

Re:But you have to admit

[ryanr]

Hmm... yes, I'll grant that funniest.

Must have been somewhat uncomfortable for my Mom, me singing along with that song... I had no idea what it was about when I was 12 or whatever.
