Five albums into their career, they were arguably the most popular band in the world, a notion reinforced by the enormous success of their 1983 record Synchronicity. “Every Breath You Take” turned into the year’s top-selling single and were it not for the Thriller juggernaut, Synchronicity might have been 1983’s biggest album as well.
