I have to list my top ten Police songs, they are probably not their most popular but to me they are their best songs, I also included honorable mentions and "not mentioned", so have at it peoples!

1. Walking In Your Footsteps

2. Bring On The Night

3. Fallout (Their first single that no one knows about unless they have the box set, the single is a high energy tune)

4. Message In A Bottle

5. Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic

6. Spirits in the Material World

7. Tea In the Sahara

8. Invisible Sun

9. Synchronicity II

10. Murder By Numbers

Honorable mentions:

1. Man In a Suitcase

2. Don't Stand So Close To Me

3. When the World Is Running Down, You Make the Best of Whats Still Around

Not Mentioned:

Every Breath You Take- Not only is it over played it is often misinterpreted by casual music fans. Its not a love song by any means. I like the song, just wouldn't be on my essential Police playlist. 

Demolition Man- Not their greatest song and seemed out of place on Ghost in the Machine.

Mother- I know some hardcore fans like this song but lets face it, Andy's voice is awful, so don't count me as one of them. It reminds me of Captain Beefheart meets the Police, almost unlistenable. Thank goodness he sticks with playing the guitar and doesn't do backing vocals.
