848. Spirits in the Material World by the Police (1982)

The Police album Ghost in the Machine is one of the most underrated albums. Using a ska beat, Sting proclaims "we are spirits in the material world." The song ventures between this simple declaration and an analysis of the failures of political institutions.

"Where does the answer lie?

Living from day to day

If it's something we can't buy

There must be another way"
