"Murder by Numbers" by The Police

This was a funny little thing.  I was thinking about this song earlier this morning and then I was watching last nights Saturday Night Live videos and in this skit the title of the movie they are making was "Murder by Numbers" so I decided I should post it for my song today.

This was the B-side to the "Every Breath You Take" single and was also on the "Syncronicity" CD, but not the vinyl.

I should note that the track on the CD was terrible quality in that it was recorded down it the mud, very bad when all you are working with only 16 bits.  The audio in the "Topic" video is the 2003 remaster, hopefully better quality.

This advertisement for the Xentrex Male enhancement drug  is one of the best skits ever!  I loved the list of side effects.  The real drug companies drive me insane with their laundry lists of possible side effects!  For example: "possible death"... where do I sign up?  LOL!
