of course, if what you're looking for is "annoying and grating" vocals,
then "mother" is the song for you.  at best, it's inane.  summers'
freudian slip is showing.

synchro... is really only half an album -- most of side one is garbage,
while most of side 2 is reminiscent of other police records --
intelligent lyrics, creative arrangements.  i would guess that they
were so anxious to release something (anything!) that they threw in the
kitchen sink, trusting that the public would suck it up in any event.
we'll have to wait for their next record to see ...
