The Police: My Top 10 Songs

Having delved deep into their discography for my podcast Every Pod You Cast, I feel I’m properly educated on all things The Police. In their brief time together, the tension may have been palpable but the talent was off the charts. These are my favorite songs from the postpunk power trio.

*This list will be updated in the event of any future (including posthumous) releases.
