Trivia: Jan Hammer is the one and only ever person from the Czech Republic who has ever had a hit song on the Billboard Hot 100 Charts here in America. No lie.
2021 here. You never forget this shit. Nothing else like it. Got every scene of this show I have ever seen playing in my head right now. Including that kick ass title sequence.
Got stopped once for speeding. Cop hears this playing quietly and says "Remember, this is a Mustang, not a Ferrari, slow it down Crockett" and let's me off with a warning
I think I still have my royal blue miami vice suit, about to rock it. Strap on my ankle holster with my Detonics MK5 and shoulder holster with my Bren 10.
On Side B of “Miami Vice: Music from the Television Series” cassette!! I remembered this cassette tape I was playing, back when I was about 15 years old!!
I've heard somewhere (correct me if I'm wrong) that the Tom drum sound is actually a sampled tambourine hit, detuned and played on the Fairlight. Unmistakable sound though

I can just imagine the looks on the faces of the producers for Miami Vice when they first heard this.
love this comment. should be pinned!!!!
This track was the last 100% instrumental to make it the #1 spot on the American pop charts.
Yeah, and it did that 30 times, right?
I didn't know that.
Chariots of Fire was first.
The Sound Of Giorgio Moroder (NRG)
Actually, 'Harlem Shake' by Bauer made it to #1 in 2013
So timeless. You'd think it just came out two seconds ago.

That's cool!!!
and he won back to back Grammys for this.
Jan Hammer nailed it. Most badass theme ever.
Change my mind.
I can't, so I won't!
Now why would we want to do such of a atrocity.
Airwolf theme?
The A Team
I have a cassette with this followed by To Live And Die in LA by Wang Chung, both awesome themes granted LA is to a movie.
If you asked me to define the 80s in one song, *this* would definitely be it!
Of course!!!
This or In the Air Tonight
34JD
I missed out on the 80s too :(.
Born in 90
항상 끝내주는 연주곡입니다.최고입니다.
best TV theme of all time
a-team?
@@katiescarlett8108 Nah?- Miami Vice!
Rarity Nerd Miami Vice for sure 👏👏
My favourite TV show of all time. I was 14 and lived my teenage years in the awesome 80's.
I think it's a tie between this and magnum pi
Hammer definitely nailed this song it’s pure 80’s MIAMI only in FLORIDA! 🌴🌞
The true definition of the 1980's
THE EPITOME OF THE 80'S
this song went to #1 on the pop charts in 1985!!!
I was 15 then. Damn!!!!
#1? wow
Specifically, it was the week of November 9, 1985.
Cool theme.
Good tv series that was over the top. 80's style.
This song defined the 80's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was 21 when this came out. What a rush of memories it brought back.
This is too pure for this world.
Welcome to the 80's! The best years to have lived through. And as you walk through the door to the
80's this is the song that welcomes you.
One of the greatest shows of all time
11-9-85!! This theme was everywhere and #1 on the chart!! 30 YEARS AGO!!
the first TV theme to top the chart, if I'm not mistaken
I'm back in 8th grade whenever hearing this
Just went to Miami for the first time. The experience is 100% this song. Nothing like it baby!
While Crockett's Theme had a more moody and sad tone, the Miami Vice theme is more upbeat and energetic.
Every once in a while you hear something that makes it all better, no matter what’s wrong......this is it.
Most underrated [1980's] of all-time!!
This song was making us relaxing summer 🏝️ beacheside and swimming pool
If I ever visit Miami or get a chance to drive a Ferrari, I’m blaring this out of the speakers while I’m driving. Count on it.
Let me know ill join in a convertible 😂🎉
Yeah, definitely going with Miami. Getting the Ferrari would be the hard part.
Nah you won't youll look like a geek
@@whereisthehook I promise you I wouldn’t care.
@@ForceMaximus84 👍👍👍 don't care just do it!!
Miami Vice Action Spectacular Music!
ICONIC...
My dad tells me he used to drive very fast to this song when he was my age. I can see why
Still listening and loving this in 2020.. Miami Vice and MTV COPS brought me here😎
2021...ditto
Still listening in 2024!!!
I remember myself and my emotions when i was kid and listened Miami Vice introduction theme 🤓
Original and best of them. Still a blast
I would love to time travel to the 80s!
Traveler's guide to the 80s:
Pros: cute small town blue jeans girls in curls and braces
Cons: People smoke virtually everywhere, no internet.
@@JamesRDavenport Smoke is not a problem for me.
@@ivoreategui781 Cool for you then. Saddle up that time machine, rock on!
Jan Hammer
"Miami Vice" Theme.

Musical genius.
Jan Hammer
"Miami Vice Theme"
#1, 1985.
TV Series brought me here!
2021 here. You never forget this shit. Nothing else like it. Got every scene of this show I have ever seen playing in my head right now. Including that kick ass title sequence.
That was a helluva show!
The guitar solo gets more chilling when you realize he's not even using a guitar.
Imagine eddie van Halen busting out a solo on this
Wow!
Girls, summer and Miami Vice!!
Miami could never asked for a better show or theme song to advertise
Who‘s here in 2018 and will still be here in 2019?
2019 -> Here.
Me!
yo mamma
Man, still here in 2020! 😎 Miami Vice is a classic.
2021 baby, I still blast this in my car
I love you, this song.
Now That’s What I Call Music! 6
Best Theme
The original & best!
You cannot drive below the speed limit on the highway to this.
Got stopped once for speeding. Cop hears this playing quietly and says "Remember, this is a Mustang, not a Ferrari, slow it down Crockett" and let's me off with a warning
Especially if you're in Miami
I think I still have my royal blue miami vice suit, about to rock it. Strap on my ankle holster with my Detonics MK5 and shoulder holster with my Bren 10.
Back to the 80's!
Best SABC series to be shown honest
Love the soundtrack
Série maravilhosa!
Great Theme!
You are so right
this is theme that would play in the 80s when a kid came into school wearing a vice jacket with shoulder pads.
@Nature and Physics moccasins
Great music writing!
The Best Baddest Ass TV Theme
The 50 second episodes intro is better.
This song was far ahead of its time!
My God I love this!!!
This song, was the best song the serie tv, in the 80.
On Side B of “Miami Vice: Music from the Television Series” cassette!! I remembered this cassette tape I was playing, back when I was about 15 years old!!
The one and only!
"I'd like to think we made a difference today."

"DON JOHNSON IT!!"
Gol, Error y Figura en Acción
Uuh al fin un comentario en español
fab music.
2025, we will take this songs
More like we'll be playing these songs.
I've heard somewhere (correct me if I'm wrong) that the Tom drum sound is actually a sampled tambourine hit, detuned and played on the Fairlight. Unmistakable sound though
2021 and still watching fav episodes
Two words to sum up the Miami Vice theme: pure adernaline
T
EPIC
I’m instantly teleported back to 1985 as soon as this comes on
Great song and decade, in general, for music.
Sounds like the Warriors' soundtracks !!
Yep.❤❤
Here in December 2021.
It’s good running song 🎧
Juste le début est parfait
Don Johnson was God in the 80s on TV.
Only dude who could legit pull off the suit and t-shirt look.
Was searching for this masterpiece for a long from the day when I saw James Corden and David Beckham was walking stylishly for this bgm
2023!
Also great on Info Wars too!!!
🌴Miami Vice!🌴
All I need is a speedboat 🚤 🎶
And a retro Ferrari
MIAMI MICE 2020
The opening of the song 0:00 - 0:33 looks like the Naruto's first intro ROCKS
This was done on a Fairlight CMI Series II and a Roland Jupiter 8.
2021 Miami Vice, Life's a Beach ⛱️⛱️🏖️🏖️
Quality
Still stands up.
Shortest #1 hit of the 80s decade time wise 2min 25 sec
"And now your starting lineup for your Miami Heeeeat!!!!!"
Bought the Commodore 64 game just for the music...!! :)
“Delorean Dynamite” by Todd Terje seemed to be inspired a little by this as well as “Chase” by Giorgio Moroder
The tv version was the hot one but if you flip the record or cassette over this was the shit!
0:41 it sounds like GTA Vice city stories theme a little bit.
in 2021 still, neighbor knocked on my door to keep the volume up :)
This song is in gta 6 lol
