Synchronicity II by The Police HD with lyrics

[kbyrdleroy]

You did a great job. Congrats!

[PokeJediTrek]

Many miles away...

[PokeJediTrek]

So The Police did two songs with profanity in it. The second one is "Invisible Sun" LYRICS: I don't want to spend the rest of my life Look at the barrel of an armalite I don't want to spend the rest of my days Keep out of trouble like the soldiers say I don't want to spend my time in HELL Looking at the walls of a prison cell I don't want to play the part On a satistic on a government chart. What capitalized is the cuss word detected.

@PokeJediTrek Reply to me!

[BlueTravesty]

I can definitely relate to the lyrics.

[DoubleTalkingJive]

As great of a writer and bassist Sting was/is, he would've been NOTHING without Stewart and Andy. The quality of the drums and guitars in this song is absolutely unassailable.

Masterful musicianship from start to finish. Wish we still had bands like this.

[Do1phinDreamer]

This. is. the. ONLY. lyrics. vid. of. this. song. on. Youtube. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! xD

I wish I could find a female cover of this song. (Not coz I'm a femenist so much as wanting to be able to sing this song better, even though I don't think I can sing...LOL xD)

[RushRocks1]

pretty sure the song is about the inner demons and rage that's all covered up in one until eventually the dude snaps. rolls with the analogy to Nessie.

[Greer1888]

The Police rule!!

Apart from my obvious bias the fact that so many people argue over their lyrics prove how good they are.

I'll stick to listening to the guys that wrote the lyrics and not judge them, after all they now better :)

[skAsterdam2]

Alway amazes me how well written their songs are. And the sound is so unique. Are there any other bands like this? I don't know much about 'new wave' but talent-wise, who could compare

[HoleHeadedLiar]

One of the best New Wave bands, period. Second only to Tubeway Army. This track, among others proves this heartily.

[tweelet]

Awesome 80's, when I was only like 12/13 years old when rock was real, and lyrics were great just to read along to. Could not help listen up loud this song, it relates to the "hell" I'm going through in my life right now, as well as some other family members. OH what worse time than before friggin crappy holidays for "such crap". Dont ask, wont tell about please, thanks.

peace out

get high

[KegRiese]

Music used to be good until gay ass rappers who suck donkey chode took over.

[IcedShmores]

lochness monster...this scotland

[GreenAce92]

Seriously a fantastic song from start to finish

[xhamlin]

Get the lyrics right! Dislike!

[towerengi23]

whussup with the dak scottish lake?

[xthirion]

one of their best songs, but a very disturbing text. in 1983 were they next to prepare the song synchronicity 3 or came their separation faster????

[HoleHeadedLiar]

@xthirion The album was called Synchronicity. Among the album's other tracks were the opener for side one: Synchronicity I and the opener for side two: Synchronicity II.

There was no Synchronicity IIV, and there never will be.

[SneakyJem]

I sure don't wanna be in his situation

[ColodeHurlingham]

i like it and wanna kill some1 don´t like it

[emersontotalyconfuse]

The 80's was really powerful.

[mtvlies]

2:38 I hear 'loch' not 'lake' ! (which pretty much means the same yet always diffs.

a very rescourceful tune!

in 1:06+2:07+3:31 pre-chorus motives - A.Summers can't help Kashmir-licking it thou

Take THAT autotune!

[pjsbulldog67]

one of the best songs ever.the police have at least 10 songs in my personal top 50.im 42 and i purchased all their releases,just wish they would of put out more!!!

[turfshredder]

@uteh99 I wish all male english teachers could write songs as cool as this.

[ultrakool]

this is their best tune, imo. searing guitar notes, searing vocals, less than normal energetic drumming, but who cares? it's angry. fuck the rat race...i'm gone fishin

[assoverteakettle]

So it's about a middle aged guy about to go suicidal or postal from everyday stressors and the monotony of life...but what does "many miles away, something crawls from the slime at the bottom of a dark Scottish lake... many miles away" supposed to mean?

[godwillhunting2]

@assoverteakettle i think the song is about the analagy between the upper end of the food chain and the lower end ( that something that crawls from the slime ) ,,,both wage the daily struggle .... highly " evolved " man is in the same cesspool of life that some critter in a lake is also in.

[assoverteakettle]

@godwillhunting2 Or how about that the Loch Ness Monster legend is being used as a metaphor for undiscovered wonders and dreams that will never be discovered because this guy is stuck in a situation that society said is the right thing to do: get a job, get married, get a mortgage, have kids, go to work, stuck in traffic, put up with worklife crap, just to save up for that summer family vacation...repeat for many more years while being oblivious to other things outside our own world we know.

[zithelania13]

@godwillhunting2 "Something crawls from the slime at the bottom of a dark Scottish lake" Duh! Lochness Monster anyone?

[zithelania13]

@zithelania13 oh!!! and something is happening to a family somewhere that is equally as terrifying

[MrCrosstiewalker]

@godwillhunting2 To me it Nessie factor represents the inherent unpredictability of raw nature, be it in the form of a legendary beast, a volcanic eruption, or a devastating hurricane. In the space of a few minutes, or seconds, all of the trivial minutiae that dominate human existence suddenly become moot and meaningless Many more species have come and gone, than now exist on Earth. Why should humankind be different?

[bwynder]

@assoverteakettle Synchronicity means to group things by their meaning. In the same way that the calm man becomes gradually a menace to his family, the monster emerges from the loch to bring terror on people who live at the water's edge. The two scenarios are in one way unrelated, which is why you're wondering, but in another way, they mean the same thing...problems for anyone near the emerging monster.

[CoolBeansReview]

@bwynder I agree totally

[motogpboy]

@assoverteakettle That's what ties the whole point of the song together. Synchronicity being two seemingly unrelated events with no proximity to one another somehow being causally related. In the song we hear of this man who is on the brink of going overboard, and we hear of this "monster" rising up out of a lake and about to attack a home. The "many miles away..." is supposed to imply that just like the monster, the man is going home to cause harm to his family. Really, brilliant writing :)

[72freesoul]

@assoverteakettle hi ted from greece,about ur question,i see it like this:the monster is the pollution we cause(the factory belches filth into the sky),crawling from the slime=toxic waiste we throw in the water?,coming 2 get the cottage=our home=mother earth,many miles away(u may pollute far away but it still is gonna get u,thru air and water),the song is about turning ecofriendly,and improvin our life with more peace and less traffic.sollution:renewable nrg and buy a small motorbike!

[CobaltRaine]

@assoverteakettle Guy the song is called SYNCHRONICITY II the thing rising from the slime is representative of the man's rage, heartache, boredom....whatever it is that's boiling within that's about to bubble over.

[RobinEdgar]

@assoverteakettle That is the synchronicity aka meaningful coincidences bit. Everything is interconnected and interdependent in the "collective subconscious", or the "spirit world". So it would seem that (in Sting's imagination) the bottled up frustration aka "negative energy" of the "middle aged guy about to go suicidal or postal" (as you put it) has prompted a lake monster (like "Nessie" of Loch Ness) to emerge from a "dark Scottish loch" "many miles away" presumably to cause a bit of havoc...

[KliusEscarlopini]

@assoverteakettle i think he refers to the man who has just suicide throwing himself into the lake(sorry 'bout my english)

[xhamlin]

@assoverteakettle

Read up on the concept of synchronicity by Carl Jung. Then start to draw your own conclusions. Go to the website carl-jung . net slash synchronicity . H T M L

[wvd1979]

@assoverteakettle The monster rising from the depths of the lake and emerging on the shore is supposed to represent the mental illness and madness of the man in the song. Basically, he has lost control of the monster in his mind.

[BlueTravesty]

@assoverteakettle I think it may be about tying the middle aged guy's frustration, his breaking point to the emergence of the Loch Ness Monster. Like "the monster inside is emerging"
