The second half is much better than the first half, but overall pretty great album.

Can't think of too many bands whose last album was their best. But I can think of many bands where after the band broke up the lead singer became a pompous douche like Sting.

We all know about the singles. Obviously "Every Breath You Take" is in the very upper echelon of all time great songs. The weakest cut to me is "Walking in Your Footsteps." The lyrics dilute the exotic music. The older I get, the more I like "Mother." So bizarre. An undeniable effort; a must own for any serious music fan.

Mother and Ms. Gradenko suck. The rest is a 10 out of 10.

Can see why they broke up the band after this one - there's no way it could ever be topped. One of the best albums of the eighties. King of Pain and Wrapped Around Your Finger are epic tracks.

A must-have 80's album!!! There are many Sting classics on Synchronicity...King of Pain, Every Breath You take, and Wrapped around your finger to name a few. It's too bad this was their last album. It was great to see them in 2007, they were fantastic!

I guess I'm just not that big of a fan of the Police. And I agree the second half is superior to the first.

Classic album, hands down their best. Beginning to end great and the perfect note for them to go out on.
