- Miami Vice Theme HD
The adventures of the vice squad detectives of the Miami Police Department.
Stubble-faced detective Crockett lived in a sailboat guarded by his alligator Elvis. His partner Tubbs was a black New York cop looking for his brother's killer. Together they took on the Florida drug world. The show influenced men's fashions toward Italo-casual and interior decor toward the Memphis look. Very trendy music and unusual guest performers.
Creator: Anthony Yerkovich
Stars: Don Johnson, Philip Michael Thomas
As a teenager on a farm in Iowa this show connected me to another world. Every Friday night at 8pm. Never missed an episode.
love your comment...same for me in Tennessee
I think everyone whou watche this show back in 80‘ies would have the same statment !
I rised up with „Star Trek“ orginal series , Star Wars „A new hope“ , „Battelstar Galactika“ , „Patroulie Orion“ , „Moonbase Alpha- or better known as „ Space 1999 „ and some others include „Cursor“ ( for this age a real Scie-Fie show ) !!!
I miss my Childness it was a kind of perfekt life , now I know to much i realy dont want to know and with to much feer for future of my Doughter !!!
Gas! Try Ireland as a preteen with only 4 TV channels and the catholic church running everything. This show was great.
@@matthewsims9469 Your not that far away!
@@peterboczan2116 may be not geographically but certainly culturally...
I think we can all agree that Miami Vice was definitely ahead of its time!
Quintessential 80's
It invented what's known as "feature television," making a weekly TV show in the same manner as you would a movie.
It was actually spot on with the times
O% ahead. I don't think you understand the 80's
"Ahead of it's time" has become a meaningless buzzword for "good". Miami Vice was so much an icon of it's time that it almost feels like a parody now.
@AtomicGirlNYC-fu9xy Yup. It's just a buzzword to sound smarter than you are.
It’s hard to describe to someone who didn’t grow up in the 80’s how much these shows meant to us.
100!!!
true, same is with the dinosaur era
Friday Night Videos!
Gen X
M I L L E N I A L but i can absolutely appreciate shows like these.
Whoever edited this intro was a genius. The girl walking to the rototoms in the beginning…perfect. Lol
Fucking ace
80's...not a decade, it's something you feel.
80s were better
except Europe
@@magnump.i.7700 your screen name is very cool, dude ;D
amen
@@tinyrockyplanet8953 i mean Europe as the continent idiot, we had the soviet union
No decade will ever beat the 80s for music, movies, and TV.
And sports also
Some of the fashion (like MV) as well for me... (very controversial opinion tho lul)
Maytricks Dresses and unstructured linen blazers with pastels... I’m 16 btw, so unfortunately I wouldn’t... Born much too late.
My parents just had it just perfect around late 60s-early 70s. -_-
Maytricks Nah, I meant I wouldn’t remember how it used to be since I’m a fair bit too young
I’ve had a Vice inspired collection I’ve started for quite a bit, but it’s becoming much larger now haha
The good old days when most households only had channels 2 to 13 to watch, maybe a few on the UHF dial or HBO if you were lucky... Network TV was king, most of America watched the same prime time shows, and outside of prime time it was mostly reruns of shows that aired in the 70s - stuff that our parents watched, and now watched together with us. That's one of the things that gave us a better connection and appreciation to what came before us, a connection missing with today's youth.
Ohhhh man!!! I’m 50 years old and this theme song from Miami vice is taking me back to the 80s. 80s era was the best time ever period. Music, dancing, night clubs, fashion, people and tv shows you name it. Missed the old days 😞
Hay you age is like mines , send you best regards stay healthly and happy !!!
🤙🖖🏻🫵👍!!!!
People? With Reagan the mass murderer? HA
We still have that today, just wear a mask and social distance! Also, men are women are men.
Me, too!
50 here, too! HA! 🦩
If there was one piece of music that could encapsulate the 80's life, this is it.
Yes indeed!!!!
For 56 seconds I was truly happy again
That's great to hear, Rick.
I just bought the full series dvd set, so love this show
Rick Graham
Moi aussi
Rick Graham For 56 seconds I was 15 again.
Yeah the remake was utter shite.
Best theme song, best soundtrack, best cast, best cop show...period.
Hill Street Blues is up there with Miami Vice in terms of quality programming.
Best opening credits too. Me and my buddies used to watch the show just for the theme music and ESPECIALLY for the opening credits...particularly the part @ 0 :47 where the two women in bikinis walk out of the hotel, and walk away, with that nice butt shot. 🍑🍑 😍
Good times.😄
Airwolf theme as well.
Sledgehammer was great too
that would be The Shield and the Wire. fucking normies stfu
At 56 a child of the 80s this still gives me goosebumps man I was so lucky to experience those golden days if only I knew it back then!
Heck yes. No climate change BS, most goods still made in the USA, great music, a news media that still gave us the truth for the most part. Not perfect but far better than 2023 any day, plus of course we were 35-40 or so years younger.
I'm 54 and I support your comment 100% 😊
The 80's experience is something you can truly say, "You had to be there"...
People saying "I was at THE WAR.", now we can say "I was in the 80s"
Never meet your heroes!
I'm in Miami Beach for work. As soon as my plane landed, this theme has been playing in my head on repeat.
If you live in Florida 🏖 2000-2020 era and you see 1980s era MV scenes 🎬, it's COMPLETELY different. The bldgs, traffic, roads, beaches, restaurants, art all of it!
@@DavidLLambertmobile need to be seeing csi Miami at that point
same happened to me when i visited Dallas few years ago and the beautiful theme Dallas tv series was playing in my head as well
Oh shit 😂
They should play this theme at the touchdowns in Miami.
0:02 come on pelican
Scarface
Iconic. Groundbreaking. Timeless. Instantly recognizable.
True!!!
ONE of the BEST intros ever: "80's Miami was speed, power, beauty. For grownups! This is why this intro IS EPIC". 😎
This still looks so badass.
@Alligator download it from a torrent site with a VPN of course.
Somehow I only remember the flamingos from this opening theme ... those birds really stole the show ...
Azathoth I agree, the song stands up. Most of the other 80s openers had the big sweeping orchestrated music that all sounded very similar.
@@88feji and the parrots 🦜🦜 (0:37) 😉
@@88feji for me its the babe dipping her head in the water while wind surfing!!!
When I was about 3 years old in the mid 80s, my parents took me to the zoo, and when I saw the flamingos I yelled joyfully, "Miami Vice birds!" Is there anything more 80s than that? Lol. To this day my parents still call flamingos Miami Vice birds.
My eyes got teary when I read your anecdote. Thank you for sharing.
😹MIAMI VICE BIRDS!😹👍
That's actually really wholesome, although it could be fake, there is still a big chance that has happened before.
They were common, I remember, on t-shirts then. I was an older kid in the 80s. Lots of neon and square shapes and pastels, and birds.
Aw!!! What a sweet memory - thanks for sharing. My memory of Miami Vice was dancing to the theme! It was a dance party.
Perfect cast, perfect music, perfect stories and episodes. Must be the 80s!
Yeah really can't get away with this today.
the peak of the civilisation
Best opening music ever from an 80s TV show....quality!...
This was one of the best TV shows i've ever seen.
LeonAmarantos I agree with you.
I've never heard about the Friday the 13th TV show.
I agree and I loved macgyver too two of my fav shows as a kid!
+LeonAmarantos no idea all I remeber is this show and macgyver as a kid I was fascinated by both shows both ahead of its time
+LeonAmarantos I would watch it if I find it the shows in the 80s are all treasures
The 80s: so full of awesome it makes people born in THIS century, nostalgic.
Well put
Atthevtime the critics was "All looks, little content", but it was niceh!
Facts
looks like you're particularly fond of 1984
So true...the music, the freedom, the fun...the last truly free decade.
Ain’t nothing better then coming home after a long day and watching Crockett and Tubbs cruise around in a testarossa❤️
The 80s seem like a paradise compared to the shit show of the 2020s.
@@avae5343 Sigh..yup. The 80s seem like another universe compared to now.
Fuck yeah dude!
shit show somes up anything past 95
@@JM-yc1nh You mean when internet access started becoming widely available?
@@JM-yc1nh Close, I'd say since 9/11.
Disposable income? Speedboats? Flamingos?
Yep, it's the 80s.
And no disgusting, soulless reggaeton music or gangsta rap to be heard for miles....
I can't help but to say I really miss those days.
Best years of history
You forgot electrosynth music. A long lost artform.
Baby Mammoth34 your opinion.
I was a teen in the 80's and this was quite simply the coolest, sexiest and most mindblowing opening titles and show I had ever seen. Now I am 46 years old, and it still ROCKS.... even more so due to the bullshit musical and political times we are living in. I wish I had appreciated the 80's a little more than I did at the time. They were good times.
Amen! I'm 45 now and agree with you 💯%!!!
@@bigsonny45 You lucky.This time is terrible.I didn't live at those times but I m sure 70's 80's were good times, especially in Miami.Now life is dead.
I was 12 when this aired the first time and somehow knew this was/is subzero cool! It still rocks indeed, Jan Hammer convincingly mixed synthesizer with a rock-sound! 47 now, and still feel the same!
Well said sir. Fully agree with you there am 46 years old and miss the good times
I have exactly the same feeling. It's great to share the same memories
It was 1986 and i was 16 and couldn't wait for friday nights because this show was on tv and it was my favourite. No other tv show got close to this. Those opening scenes and this music make it feel like i'm back there and it's like the last 36 years never happened. I would give anything to go back to that moment in time.
The vibes in those days were just so ridiculously awesome. The '80s were magic.
Who's still missing the 80'S In December 2020?
Yupp-ie
😢
Me!
Me to
January 21, 2021......LOL!
Damn I miss the 80's!!!!!! I lived in South Florida in the days of Miami Vice and it was fantastic!!!!!
Born in Hialeah in 67. I loved this show. I would pick out places I seen and been while watching it.
Same. I miss Miami so much.
You guys miss the coke? I do!
@@m_christine1070 where are you know ? Just plain curiosity ......
yea me too!
I was a fan of A-Team, Night Rider, MacGyver etc... That all took the back burner when I was introduced to Miami Vice. Still among the best TV shoes ever made. It had the best clothes, cars, music, it had it all. It was the 80's, turned up to 11.
Ja das ist Gänsehaut pur … !!! Die 80-ziger !! Bin sehr froh in dieser Zeit meine Jugend erleben zu dürfen …. der Wahnsinn !!! Darf man nie vergessen !!
Besser wird es nicht , auf dieser Welt !!!!!
Bitte vergesst den traumhaften Don Johnson nicht !!! Der Wahnsinn !!!!
why are new shows not even 1/4 this cool?
You see a bit of skin and nicely shaped women so it would get cancelled after a week .
This intro was so geniously made. Unfortunately, you don't see this anymore.
Miami Vice, Literally a series that was ahead of it's time. What an era. The nostalgia is real man. Been re-watching the entire series these past months, and what a time. Don't think any show can come close too it these days. Sad that the era, is long past. Iconic storyline, themes, instrumentals, characters and so much more. Legendary.
Where can you stream the series?
@@Ozzie070Tubi
I like the fact that there's no cheesy 'intro shots' of the main actors- just sexy scene-setting cinematography.
This is a HUGE reason it was better than the rest! Good call!
Good point dat
yup, just seeing 'Don Johnson' on the screen increases my pulse rate by 20%!
Like "The Love Boat" you mean? lol
This show put Florida on the international destination map.
Come to Australia theres sharks everywhere
there is or "there are" :) ?
Nah, it had been Cubans' preferred destination for 3 decades before.
Up through 1958 Miami was a sleepy little retirement community. 1959 saw it turn into the unofficial capital of Latin America.
Walt Disney world made FLORIDA an international destination.
If that theme doesn't affect your pulse, you are dead already.
AFFECT....affect.
yes you're exactly right!
Don Juan Johnson as Sonny Crockett
YES IM IN FLAMINGO SHIRT IN A SPEED BOAT FLYING BY SNORTING SOME COKE OFF SOME HOOKER'S ASS
That's right!!
This is the coolest and most exciting theme in the world!!!! 😀
This intro and show always made me want to visit Miami, and now I'm watching this while in Miami Beach. Great way to re-live my childhood!
Those were the days. A nice close up shot of a women's chest in a TV intro.
It was racy then. Now you see that on the evening newscaster.
These days...you can't tell if it's man or woman lol
I've always been impressed by the windsurfer dipping his/ her head in the sea while windsurfing
It was actually a seizure apparently, but still looked cool.
Al Gilmore lol. Good troll.
It was a girl, Luis, which made it an even cooler scene.
I wonder if she knows she's famous.
@@starlodear2987 probably not. She could be in a walker or wheelchair now, if she's not dead. Damn I feel old now.
80's Miami vice, Knight Rider, Mac Gyver, The A Team, Alf😍
Magnum PI?
Who's The Boss 🙃
Airwolf?
CHiPs
@@rajnirvan3336 Chips was in the 70s Falcon Crest was in the 80s
Boomer here 😉 and THAT was my absolute favorite show on TV. I was madly in love with Don Johnson aka Sunny Crockett ❤ great times, great music 🎶
I watched all the seasons on DVD (twice! but not the same year lol) and i loved every second of it! Nothing is more 80's than Miami Vice! The music, the outfits, miami at night, the cartels, the women, the CARS! My god what a masterpiece! If i was rich enough i would buy a white testarossa and just hang out in MIami until i die, lol. No wonder that they made vice city (the best game ever!)
I feel so sorry for everybody who have never experienced the 80's. It was literally fun and games.
U look pretty fun YOURSELF!!
@@mcmacshalfilya thanks!😃
@@loveydovey2805 Each decade has its own merit and qualities
I was in school during the 1980s. I'm sad.😭
@@loveydovey2805 You're welcome my FUN ONE✨
One of the all time greatest TV theme songs. They don't make 'em like this any more.
Game of Thrones was pretty good...
@@justayoutuber1906 Miami is a real place you can go.
Lies again? Green Pink
I no TV's sucks now UA-cam have took over
Hell what a tune masterclass ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a show... I always wanted to be like Crockett and Tubbs, they embodiment awesomeness that no mere mortal will ever achieve.
Thank god for 80s.
The greatest tv-series ever! I watched every episode as a kid and was thrilled every time. I "had" to watch them all again as an adult though, to appreciate all the drama. To my delight, they were even better.
As a girl who was born in '92 wish i was a teenager during the 80s then i could watch while it was still airing. :(
I love this show so much. Especially this badass opening.🔥
You are living at the right time
Best theme song for any TV show ever!
I'd say it's a tie with Magnum PI
Everything is perfect and beautiful : the music, the energy, the font, the images, the colors etc ... my god !
All those flamingos that were running.
They're all dead now 😞
age
***** They were depressed and committed suicide.
The sand on all those beaches eroded away and was replaced with synthetic sand at great expense...
Come on pelican!!
Not synthetic sand, just sand imported from the Bahamas
This was so cool. Men wore pastel colors and were cool. The 80s we're awesome
Did the women wear pastel panties?
Not so good for sock retailers
I was never as excited when this brilliant theme opened the episode of Miami Vice...legendary!!
The 80s were about elegance, excellence, decadence, and excess. It was the perfect decade. 1988 was good, but IMO, 1985 was the greatest year in my lifetime.
I remember being a kid in the 80s, me and my friends would watch the intro over and over from a VHS recording. Especially to see the Carnival girl and the two girls walking away at the end. The yellow bikini girl was a goddess as far as our 9 year old selves were concerned.
+squarewave808 no fake boobies in the 80`s ;)
+squarewave808 I wonder why the cameraman zoomed-in on the bouncing boobies. I wonder how it got passed the FCC censors
.
+electrictroy2010 the show was shown @ 10pm, that's why
+bellarocksify Bet they had full bushes too :P
funny and true story... the carnival girl, that was my mom. she worked on the set throughout the show and was even an extra in a few episodes, though I can only remember one, my dad too. 100% nepotism, my God mother (my moms best friend) was one of the producers at the time.
Landmark television series. It turned the city of Miami into the very definition of 'cool'.
+StateLaughter Escobar, you wanted to say...
+StateLaughter watched it religiously....great show! i miss it!......popcorn, pillow, on the floor , rite in front so i wouldn't miss anything !....wow seems like it was a few years ago,..dang ill be 41 on ST Valentine's Day....im i ove the few poor guys that have to buy for his lady, on his Bday!!!!hahahahahahah
+Jay Clark Thanks for sharing the memories. Yep, we are of the same generation bro. I'm just 5 months older than yourself. There is no trace of that 80's world of our youth remaining. None at all. It's like a whole different planet now. I do have all five seasons of Miami Vice on DVD though, in pristine condition!
I also grew up in the 80's this show was back when NBC had good weekly prime time lineup I'll be 42 this July
+robert spencer I'll be 42 come this July 2016 as well. Heh.
These shows were amazing, I loved these and KNIGHT RIDER, AIR WOLF, even AUTOMAN. I can go on and on.
Brilliant series ever. The music tune by Jan Hammer is awesome.😀👍
I heard this song today when I was at the grocery store. For a brief moment
I was a teenager again watching Miami vice with my mom and dad. Good times😊
The 80,s was truly fantastic for films and music 😃👍
You truly knew that it was Friday night when this show and this theme was blaring on the air. I was hooked!
.
Miami Vice had the BEST Theme song EVER!
As Great today as it was on the show! Just can't be beat!👍
Hawaii five 5, but this theme song might of been inspired by that one
the 80s were the best ever. music , tv , news, etc
News?
@@kamuelalee Probably the presentation of newscasts, is what he means.
Regean's assassination attempt, Anwar Sedat's assassination, John Lennon's murder, John Belushi dying of a drug overdose, the Challenger explosion, the Iran Contra scandal. Yeah, we had a lot of good news going on back then, didn't we?
I deliberately came home every Friday night before 9:00 pm (When Miami Vice started), even if I was out at a club, so I didn't miss this show. And never missed it for all the years it was on TV. Great show, and some of the best music. I can still remember songs on the show by Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, and the late great Glen Frey. One of the best TV shows of all time!
The first two years were great, then it went south.
I never watched this show some lady said I gave her Miami Vice vibes so I checked out the show and now im hooked.
Best tv theme ever and way ahead of it's time.
still sounds cool as ..
borinakoune not the best but still awesome
I used to look forward to watching the show just for the intro. It truly is a classic. 35 years later it still has the same punch as in 1985.
not ahead of its time, but sticking to its time. it's just that we are going backwards.
One of only five that went to #1 on the Billboard charts.
The little parrot makes me happy everytime I see this. This show was the epitome of 80's cool.
This is one of my favourite old shows. It's great that obviously working with this project inspired Don Johnson to create Nash Bridges which is also good to watch.
Miami Vice had the coolest opening for their show of ALL TIME. MTV cops it was called. Jan Hammer did a hellava job.
The 80s at its pinnacle!
I grew up watching this as a kid. Its still one of the greatest shows ever to air on TV. Thanks.
First we had Starsky and Hutch, driving around in their red tomato, flared trousers and wide collard shirts and I thought that was tops!! then in the 80's Miami Vice aired and what a difference it was Cool pastel clothing, beaches, girls, the fancy sports cars, fast boats. These two cop shows I will never forget!!
Lived the 80s born in the 60 s enough said least we’ve lived it 🏴👏👏👏👏👏😉
One of the best legend tv series in 80's.Million of people effected stylings when watched this production.Actors..musics..cars..
artichures...style..homes...fashion.
luxury objects...etc...But big effect firstly Sunny Crocket awosome style.Great series in our minds forever...
It was 1995, when they start to show Miami Vice in Russia, Moscow. I was 16 yo, and I was shocked-all that sunshine, palms, cars, girls, the ocean! Every evening my mother father and I were sitting around the TV and watching the show and after that, had a hot discussion about this series and about what will happen next) Back of the days, almost 25 years ago, Miami for me was something untouchable, unachievable, and not a real. Now I am 41 and still, I am happy to see this show) BTW Miami is only 250 miles away from my house now :-)
Dont let miami turn into a shithole.
#Trump2020 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Best opening theme for a cop show ever. Plus Don Johnson was pretty cool.
Check out a little thing called Hawaii 5-0 and get back to me.
Not if you were a shareholder in SocksRUs
Watching the title sequence now means so much more..it shows the glamour and oppulance of Miami and how materially things were bought by nefarious means...all nice by daylight then the final note cuts to nighttime.,brilliant
I am so impressed with this show that I lack any words to fully discribe it.
The show don't even feel old or outdated even though it is from the early 1980's.
It has to be one of the most impressive tv-shows ever made and it has that almost magical 1980's feeling about it.
If I could live in a tv-show and I could not choose Star trek voyager or next-gen,I would choose Miami vice,even though it is
not a sci-fi show.
I have nothing bad to say about this show and that in itself is almost a miracle.
No I Have not seen that movie and I am not going to.
I do belive you when you say that it is an ok movie,but I dont belive in making remakes of old wondefull
movies or tv shows and I thing we have seen quite a few horrible examples of such remakes in the last few years and they do serious hearm to the original concept.
Star wars and star trek has been destroyed by those horrible remakes and so has Robocop,Transformers and so many other things and I don't want Miami vice killed for me as well.
There is only one Crockett and one Tubbs for me and I would like it to stay that way.
But thanks for your comment.
I was so looking forward to seeing and loving the movie.But it was unwatchable.It was as though the entire budget went to hiring Colin Farrel and Foxx and then hired a film student and skeleton crew and didn't even have a budget to more than a few paid extras.It was very bad. Farrell and Foxx had zero chemistry,zero swagger,and I couldn't hear or understand most of what they were saying. Nothing. It was actually fascinating for how bad it was and I guess I should be grateful they didn't make it a comedy like Charlie's angels.
@@Heartborne7thSeeker I hated the movie. They replaced Crocket and Tubbs with Ernie and Bert.
I was 14 years old when Miami Vice came on the air in 1984. I have yet to see a decade that can match the 80s.
You won't.
Sadly, u can’t see it anymore
Not an 80s kid, but watching Miami vice for the first time....great series and music !
I still love it ❤❤❤
At 37 years of age, this shit STILL gives me goosebumps.
You're a millennial by birth, but a Gen X'er at heart.
@@Timbrock1000 X is- the best (besides the "Greatest Generation WW2)
@Timbrock1000 I guess that means I’m Gen Z by birth, Gen X’er at heart
Isn’t that a Great intro ?!!! The ladies, the lifestyle, the names of the actors, and then the way the music suddenly changes and you get the scene turning to night. When everything is different, and the underbelly comes out to play. Iconic
Hey, you are about 40 now! :D 35 here, same vibes.
For the kids like me who grew up Miami. Son of Cuban refugees in the 80s this was inspirational to be successful at any cost. Turned the needy into the greedy! Love this influence
The 80's was the best Time in my Life. And Miami Vice was one of the best TV Shows ever.
Saundra Santiago & Olivia Brown gave about a 1 hour talk/interview at my Junior High back in the day... I can't remember a word they said, but I remember clearly how absolutely fine they looked! :)
The best decade for American tv shows. I used to stay up late and watch The Equaliser on a portable black & white tv, the one you had to twist the round aerial on to get a decent picture...
Every speed boat I see.... Hell even if I get in a canoe, this is playing in my head!!!! Awesome!
Hell, I'm like this even in a paddle boat in Hyde park 🤣
Im watching the series now, and I dont know what you folks mean by nostalgia. This show is more real then the Orwelian crap we have today. This is real life fun on screen. Great show, great episodes, Ima get some o those Croker suits.
Genius and one of the best lead guitars ever played on a keyboard. Still sounds real today. Amazing
Watch this video to see Jan Hammer (composed this theme) playing with Jeff Beck in 2017: [m.ua-cam.com/video/hN5DMGDW2sk/v-deo.html#]
You will recognize the vibe ...
Best opening of any of the seasons for Miami Vice...perfect editing for the music.
When I was a kid I couldn't get enough of this theme song when it came on.
The 80s, the best decade ever to be alive in our planet.!! No women with tatoos or implants .. most of them with natural beauty, no internet no FB, no Instagram, no stupid millenials..life was more simple and easier..
100 Percent agree,cept for the strippers with boob jobs, lol
I lived in Florida in the 80's. This takes me back.
I love the comments under this UA-cam post: "The 80s were awesome!" Fuck yeah, they were! I was in my 20s, I had hair, I owned a boat, and I was, well, simply irresistible 😉
Crockett? Us that you?
One of the best theme songs and intro's ever. Magnum PI was pretty good too. Gotta have that guitar in there that makes it special.
No guitars were used in the performance of this theme (it's Jan Hammer's synth genius).
That intro was so good I never actually watched the show after it.
The most bad-ass television show introduction ever.
Best and coolest TV show In the 80s period.
