The Police, Zenyatta Mondatta [📷: A&M]“Jump, jump, jump!” “Voices Inside My Head” appears as the fifth track of Zenyatta Mondatta, the 1980 album by iconic rock band, The Police. Zenyatta Mondatta is one of multiple, multiplatinum albums by the collective. A non-single, the aesthetic of “Voices Inside My Head” is a huge selling point. It features an electrifying, infectious groove. Simply put, there is NO WAY you’ll be able to resist the body movement. The rhythm section is firmly in the pocket: drums, rhythm guitar, and a super athletic bass line 💪.

Beyond his voice, the vocal production is well-rounded.  Regarding the songwriting, “Voices Inside My Head” keeps the lyrics simple and repetitive: “Voices inside my head / Echoes of things that you said.” Yep, that’s about the size of it! Even with Sting singing uncomplicated text, those lyrics are a vibe. A sick gem from the 1980s, “Voices Inside My Head” never gets in a rush, giving off cool but incredibly potent energy.
