"Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic" is a hit single by British rock group The Police. The song reached the top of the charts in the United Kingdom and hit number 3 in the United States. It is in D major.
Although released in 1981, Sting had written this song as early as 1976. A very early (1977) acoustic version of this song performed by Sting can be heard on the Strontium 90 album Strontium 90: Police Academy.
The American rock band Ra covered this song for their 2005 album Duality.
The piano part was added by session keyboardist Jean Roussel who pestered the band to allow him to play on the track, against Sting's original wishes.
"Every Little Thing She Does is Magic" was performed by the fictional band Scrantonicity on the episode of The Office entitled "Phyllis' Wedding", with lead vocals by the character Karen, who is played by Rashida Jones.
