Overheard on my submarine for months after this was released : "ROOOOOOOOOXanne!" Sort of a universal shout-out for any reason including boredom. Brings back warm and fuzzy memories. Mostly fuzzy ones.

There really should be more cuts than just Roxanne from the debut. 1, 2, 6, 7 & 8 all work for me...

Not the best song on this album, but it'll do in a pinch. I personally like the strange punk funk brew of Masoko Tango best. Plus it hasn't been played to death.

One of my Top 50 songs of all time . . . the Police at their best! Woo hoo!

Wait! Wait! Oh, wow—I finally GET it! This is a fucking JOKE, right? The inane lyrics, the utterly execrable performance (from a guy who can, in a pinch, actually sing) . . . it's a JOKE!

I still hate it.

The only thing better than this song is this song in Moulin Rouge!
