Their fifth UK No. 1, it topped the UK Singles Chart for four weeks. The song also reached the Top 10 in numerous other countries.Sting wrote the song in 1982 in the aftermath of his separation from Frances Tomelty and the beginning of his relationship with Trudie Styler.

Sting and Frances lived next door to Trudie in Bayswater, West London, for several years before the two of them became lovers.

I think I was thinking of Big Brother, surveillance and control..
