Synchronicity
The Police

While I technically did not listen to this, I pretty much know this album back to front, having owned it on cassette and having played it to death when I was much younger. It's a funny little album - it sounds very different from what went before and it leans a little more world music. The lyrics too were pretty out there - I always remember that one song that finishes up with a shadow on the door of a cottage on a Scottish loch and it's about pollution ... or environmental damage... or maybe I just completely didn't get it. I love the title track, Tea in the Sahara and there's another song about some stalkery dude that's pretty good as well.
