Robbed Hit of the Week 5/20/12 - The Police's "Secret Journey"...


The Police - "Secret Journey"
from the album Ghost In The Machine (1981)
Billboard Hot 100 peak: #46 (two weeks)

Today's Robbed Hit of the Week is by a rock band used to hitting the top-40, the Police. "Secret Journey" was released as the third American single off their Ghost In The Machine album after "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic" and "Spirits In The Material World". It's dark, mystical theme puts it apart from their more popular work, and it's my favorite song off my favorite album of theirs.


The song just missed the top-40, but the next year the band would go on to their biggest success (and implosion) with Synchronicity.
