Understanding Message In A Bottle

Do you ever feel like sending out an SOS to the world? Well then have I got a song for you! No, but seriously, Message In A Bottle was the Police's first #1 hit, and it's a fascinating song. The story it tells is interesting, but what's really great is how deeply that story is integrated into the song itself. It uses its chords, its melodies, and every other tool it can in order to perfectly tell the story it's trying to tell. I was honestly blown away.
