The band's most popular release, it includes the hit songs "Every Breath You Take", "King of Pain", "Wrapped Around Your Finger" and "Synchronicity II". Much of the material in this album was inspired by Arthur Koestler's The Roots of Coincidence, which is what the title and album's concept is based on. It was their second album to bear an English language title after their 1981 album Ghost in the Machine which was also inspired by another of Koestler's books. At the 1984 Grammy Awards the album was nominated for a total of five awards including the prestigious Album of the Year and won three. At the time of the album's release and following its immensely popular tour The Police were hailed as the "Biggest Band in the World".

从’78年加盟A&M厂牌推出专辑『Outlandos d’Amour』至今，The Police/警察合唱团已有25年历史，2003年年初荣膺入主摇滚名人殿堂一员，显示该团在乐界的重要地位与影响力。当过老师的Sting在英格兰Newcastle一带的爵士俱乐部发迹;在中东长大的Stewart Copeland，原是热爱古典乐的考古学家，后来转往加州念书，随后加入前卫摇滚队伍Curved Air;来自英国Blackpool的Andy Summer则有过与The Animals、Kevin Ayers Band、Neil Sedaka等艺人合作的经验。
The Police于’78年与A&M签下以高版税取代高签约金的合约后，随即征战英美排行榜，缔造5张英国金榜冠军大碟、4张全美TOP 10专辑、5首英国金榜冠军曲、11首英国金榜TOP 20单曲、9首全美TOP 40单曲佳绩，"Roxanne"、"Don’t Stand So Close To Me"、"Every Breath You Take"都是该团招牌作。’86年参与国际特赦组织义唱会之后，The Police进入停摆不解散的状态，仅在Sting ’92年婚礼以及2003年摇滚名人殿堂入堂典礼中重新同台演唱。
’81年专辑『Ghost In The Machine』后，三位成员各自投入不同计划，Copeland为柯波拉导演作品「斗鱼」创作电影音乐，Sting参与电影演出，Summer与Robert Fripp合作两张专辑，直到’83年’重新归队亮出乐团颠峰杰作【Synchronicity】，专辑蝉连全美流行榜17周冠军，并同时蝉连英国金榜双周冠军，动心单曲"Every Breath You Take"连霸全美排行8周冠军，更是年终单曲总排名冠军，专辑与单曲共计为该团夺下葛莱美奖年度歌曲、最佳流行乐团、摇滚乐团三项大奖，并入围年度专辑项目。滚石杂志以四颗星赞许此张专辑为该团历年来最佳作品。专辑以世界危机、个人情感挫败、上帝存亡为题旨，并在非洲音乐与雷鬼摇摆乐的形式冒险上有着出色的表现。

The album was number one on both the UK Albums Chart and the US Billboard 200, and sold over 8 million copies in the US. Synchronicity was widely acclaimed by critics. Praise centred on its cohesive merging of disparate genres and sonic experimentation.The record has featured in numerous publications' lists of the best albums of the 1980s and the best albums of all time. Many consider Synchronicity to be the band's finest album, Rolling Stone described "each cut on Synchronicity is not simply a song but a miniature, discrete soundtrack." The same magazine went on to include it on their lists of the "100 greatest albums of the 1980s" and the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
In the USA, the hit single "Every Breath You Take" was the best-selling single of 1983 and fifth best-selling single of the decade.
