Every Single Day, Every Word You Say

No movie flashback for you this weekend as The Excellent 80's wraps up an entire week dedicated to the music videos of The Police from the 80's (ok, I brought you one from 1979). It was today's Police song that led me to purchase the cassette "Synchronicity" back in 7th grade, and wondering what the hell that word meant. It didn't matter because I loved this song. It's also the best stalker song of all-time, and a classic black and white video that just played on a loop day and night at MTV back in 1983-84. A song that spent eight weeks at #1 in the U.S. and four weeks at #1 in the UK, here is "Every Breath You Take"...
