80’s: Glenn Frey - You Belong to the City

August 30th, 2008

Most of the 80s generation (and probably 90s too) surely know legendary tv show Miami Vice. Today I’ve watched some Miami Vice episodes again and an awesome track and sax taken my interest. Here it is: Glenn Frey’s You Belong To The City!

I want to give some information about the song. It was written specifically for the Miami Vice in 1985. Along with Jan Hammer’s Miami Vice Theme, it helped the Miami Vice Soundtrack album reach the top of the charts for 3 months in 1985. This success made the album best-selling album of the year and most successful TV show sountrack of all time! By the way, Glenn Frey is one of the founding members of The Eagles (they’re mostly known with Hotel California) and he’s performing this song on stage when touring with The Eagles.

I don’t know why but the video clip of this song was recorded at Manhattan, New York City. I was hoping to see Miami scenes.

Here you can listen and watch it on YouTube:
