I've been on a Police kick recently, listening to the band's almost-complete recordings in the boxed set as well as Sting's solo work. It was an interesting group, with a sound that's always associated with New Wave but distinctive unto itself. The band also really, really didn't care about music videos until Synchronicity came out, and by then they were breaking up. "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic" is a fun song with an afterthought video, but I've always found it interesting for the narrative arc of the lyrics and the subtle incorporation of steel drums in the sound.
