Synchronicity I & II - The Police
Taken from their last, and possibly greatest album, this seems like one of the lesser known songs off the album, being out shined by Every Breath You Take, Walking In Your Footsteps, and Wrapped Around Your Finger. In my opinion though, the driving keys and fast lyrics make part I a great opener to the album, and Sting's vocals in the second make it quite possibly the best song on the album. These two songs really prove to me that the biggest hits by a band may not always be you favorite, and that every album is worth listening to fully, not just focused in on the radio heavy hits. Synchroncity II is based off of a Carl Jung writing, is about the degradation of a mans home and work life, and then a parallel event of a monstrous being emerging from a loch. It is apparently supposed to represent perhaps the fathers anguish, as the two events are not related, but represent the same symbolical meaning.
