Interesting Facts

• Synchronicity was The Police's most commercially successful album and solidified their status as global superstars. It was a massive international hit, spending 17 weeks at number 1 on the Billboard 200 in the U.S.
• The album's most famous song, "Every Breath You Take," became a worldwide phenomenon, topping the charts in multiple countries. Sting has often noted the song's dark and possessive lyrical themes are often misinterpreted as a love song.
• The album's title and central themes were inspired by psychologist Carl Jung's concept of synchronicity—the idea of meaningful coincidences. This intellectual influence is evident in tracks like "Synchronicity I" and "Synchronicity II."
• The bonus CD is a rare treat for collectors, containing all the original 7-inch and 12-inch B-sides from the era, along with live recordings and exclusive non-album bonus tracks that offer a comprehensive look at the band's work during this period.
