Absolutely I feel it! Like an overwelming feeling of nostalgia and wanting to go back to this time and having a sence of dread that we will never be able to live and feel what we felt then ever again! I want to go back to the 70s and 80s so bad!
I can confidently call myself gen z scum, but hey I hate the music my generation listens too when you compare it to this, the music my gen likes is GARBAGE.
I am in San Francisco but I am from Mexico, i am 51 in 2021, i was a teenager and used to cry with this song, I didn’t know the lyrics but it felt so sad, now I am back to feel very very very nostalgic.... next to my wife... I want to cry I don’t know why.... 80’s. The best time of my life... peace...
I was born in the 70s and grew up in the 80s. TV shows were good, music was good, styles were cool, times were more simple. I was fortunate to grow up during this time. Sad these kids have no idea! The 70s and 80s were the best! This song rocks!
Sorry to hear about your father. My Dad died in 2002 thinking Abba was a Hispanic band (they wer from Sweden). Goddamn, he loved Chiquitita! 8-track player console. Had a turn-table & TV built in. Good times.
I'm 52 yrs old and this song just takes me back. Growing up in the 80's was the best time of my life. This song is a masterpiece. They just don't make music like this nowadays. RIP Glenn Frey, you were a true legend & your music will resonate for generations to come. You are truly missed 💔
Do you remember the episode of married with children where they used the instrumental version of this? Al and Steve were trying to track down Marcey's barbie. Classic episode!
@@anthonymcculloch156 OMG... Yes I do! I totally forgot about that one.! Marcy Darcy! Too funny! Married With Children was one of my favorite shows back then! So hilarious! It was so raunchy, but yet so relatable. A show like that wouldn't even be aired nowadays in this fucked up PC world we live in today. I soooooo miss the 80's. Gone are shows like that and amazing songs like this... But definitely not forgotten. 💜
@@trishscott6995 I was born in 84. So I liked the 80's also! "They" say that it was misogynistic. Bullshit! It was WAY rougher on men than women hahaha.
It's unbelievable how amazing shows from the 80s like Miami Vice only lasted 5 seasons, while crap reality shows like Survivor and Big Brother have been on the air for 20 years and counting. SMFH
Scarface, First Blood, Ferrari GTO 288, the birth of many superbikes, Run DMC, White Lines, Fast Times at Ridgemont High. First time seeing Rob Lowe, Tom Cruise, Patrick Swawze, Diane Lane, Sherilyn Fenn, Oprah, listening to Siskel and Ebert discussing great movies, Dallas, Dynasty, Fieros, Supras, MR2, cars I loved, HBO and Cinemax and Showtime and The Movie Channel were a movie fans dream entertainment. Eddie Murphy, Arnold put out his best movies and really became famous, bodybuilding and fitness was in, Jane Fonda aerobics, leg warmers for aerobics, people had more class and were better looking, even their female adult stars were much more desirable. Raging Bull, Kevin Bacon, Top Gun, Kevin Cosner, Mike Tyson, Madonna was huge! Miami Vice, Magnum PI, Fantasy Island, Judas Priest, Ozzy. MTV actually played music videos, Michael Jackson, CNN wasn't fake news. CNN used to give the same headline news each half hour, it wasn't a propaganda show with tons of media narrative. Reagan and Reaganomics, lots of movies sold with the help of nudity, Sharon Stone became famous in Irreconcilable Differences, lots of horror movies, Conan the Barbarian, Dave Letterman. Places were better, didn't have so many homeless people, and cities were beautiful. Three's Company, when San Fran was a whole lot different. Robin Williams first appeared as Mork, Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn and James Stewart and lots of Hollywood royalty were still alive, Grace Kelly was still here. Well, if you read this, it was fun thinking of back then, and I could keep going! A great and very special decade!
I agree. I was married in 81, we had a little boy in 82 then another little boy in 85. Worked all the time, time flew by. Wish I could go back and slow down those days. There were some great music in the 80s.
Kids isolating themselves with Walkman headphones, the birth of the home video system Atari, VHS stay at home entertainment... the 80s was the womb of today's disaster. Granted the music was exceptional then
1984 had a 1964 Corvette coup, a smoking hot girlfriend, trying to figure out the future while working and going to college. Great music, no cell phones. Life was simple. I wish I could go back. There will never be another decade like the 80’s.
It's my personal favorite Rebecca. It let Glenn live up to his full 80's potential. The beautiful young woman in pastel blue gives an idea of almost, almost what Marilyn Monroe could have looked like at that same age in the mid-80's. We'll never know, but for sure realistic enough to contemplate.
Few recognize what a significant impact Miami Vice had on television and popular culture during the 80’s. Glenn Frey’s music certainly contributed to that.
Nostalgia. It's a terrible thing. Makes you look back to a time where you don't remember the bad, but only remember the good. This song brings back so many memories from what seems like 5 lifetimes ago.
I remember the bad - lost two of my biological brothers, sustained my life through Stage 4 cancer, laid off - unable to work, no insurance I could afford - who the f*ck "needs" to remember the bad without reaching out to the "good times" gone by!
I can appreciate an honest and realistic response. I am so tired of "they don't make songs like this anymore". Kids these days have their own memories and music to grow nostalgic on. It's the same for every generation.
Even radio stations that cater to 80s music fans don't give this song any respect. They really don't give Glenn much respect at all. Our local 80s station did a tribute to him when he died by playing three Eagles songs. All sung by Henley.
We still had hope then, and it wasn't because we were young. It was because of the cultural climate. The cultural climate of the 21st Century discourages hope if it doesn't outright kill it.
@@sbeni2 As compared with today's programming. John wants to get a sex change and be called Gina. Sue wants to adopt a child with her Lesbian lover, and then give the kid estrogen in an attempt to turn a Boy into a Girl. Meanwhile back at the office, Carol is offended that Jason had a picture of a swimsuit model for his screensaver. Jason has since removed said picture, apologized to the entire office,and replaced it with a Lesbian Seagull, but Sue is now triggered.The company has scheduled 6 weeks of sensitivity training because "it's not natural for a man to look at attractive Women that way". The "tough guys" in the movies now drive Toyota's, because their wives told them to. Nah. Miami Vice was EXCELLENT programming. Just not really suited for Women....or apparently you..
I'm from Russia. I'm 24. But I have always been interested in American cinema and music of the second half of the XX century. And the atmosphere of the mid-1980s makes me feel a special sense of loss, of what happened - but not with me. This fashion, this New York at night, these yellow taxis... And this song, like many other musical masterpieces, is forever on my playlist.
SAXOPHONES in the 80s was the Go-To background sounds that's so appropriate and heavily used in all types of music videos from Soul, Rock, Metal, Pop,Hip hop, Adult Contemporary, New Waves, where will 80s be without the Mighty SAXOPHONES.
I remember being a kid around 3 years old when this song came out. At the time, my mom was working at a restaurant in downtown San Francisco. The nights that my dad would pick up my mom from work, he would take my brother and me to pick her up, and this song was always playing. It was fun being a young kid sitting in the back seat of the car listening to this song while driving through downtown San Francisco at night. As a young kid anytime my dad would say "hey do you guys want to go pick up mom, I instantly started singing "You belong to the city" in my head. Now that I'm pushing towards 40, I now play this song when I take weekend night drives in the city with my wife and daughter.
@@markt5703 First, nice name! I thought I was commenting back to myself haha. You remember this song even though you were 2 months old? Wow, you have great memory.
I'm closing in on 80 years old. My 2 daughters were in their teens when this music was big. Maybe I got it from them. Always running in "Here Daddy, Listen to this." Our country / no our world will never be the same. Wonderful music.
Born in '78, so GRATEFUL I grew up in the 80's. Music like this almost brings tears to my eyes, days will never be the same. What a time and young people today will never know what it was like and for that I feel sorry for them.
Me too. I was born in 1973 and grew up with Glenn Frey and The Eagles. There was nothing like the '80's! Too bad that what we have today is not a tenth as good. Hopefully we can all have something better soon. I'd settle for something even half as great as the '80's. Cheers from northeast Ohio.
Also born in 78 , my birthday is this wendsday June 28 , 78 . I'm an old soul when it comes to music 🎶🎶🎶 , he's got the mind of a 50-60 yr old man . I'm so grateful for him
The song that added to the 80s romance and mysticism of NY........and the wish of experiencing the magic of living in NY!.......and then also the danger and excitement of living in drug, vice and cartel-infested Miami!
I dont think it would ever come bsck. Thsts just a one decade thing. All we have is memories. We love all these mrmories becsuse we were just a child. Innocent of the world.
He was suffering from arthritis and was prescribed a medicine that supposedly led to his contracting colitis and pneumonia. He developed complications from the latter and was put into a medically induced coma where he died from complications of all three. It has been suggested that the medicines he was given may have compromised his ability to fight off the pneumonia and may have contributed to his death in that way. His widow Cindy Millican filed suit against the hospital and I think maybe his doc/surgeon for wrongful death.
As a Boomer the 50's were legendary, but the 80's were better because we lived it. I hope current or future generations have an era as cool or better than what we had, but I don't see how.
everyone will be born from foreign born parents in America who have no connection to the 80s... and Europe will end up remembering the American 80s more so than will the people of America 2050
I've seen a lot of people say " You only miss the 80s because you were young." That is completely wrong. I was there and there really is NO other time like it. Hard to understand if you weren't there.
I was 17 yrs old when Miami Vice came out ~ I remember it was a big deal at the time to watch an exciting new show. The opening music theme was incredible.
Beautiful unforgettable music that can’t ever come back. 80s people wish we could go back in time. It’s a beautiful feeling. Best era ever.😢High school years we would enjoy.
Glenn Frey was born a day after me, November 5. I was born November 4, 2004. I'm not into the trash music today. I'm into 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, and early to late 2000's music. My parents taught me the good music. Love this song. It makes me think of walking through the city at night with bright neon light signs glowing everywhere. I always picture something in my head when everytime I hear any song. Like imagining that you are in a novel or storybook. R.I.P. Glenn Frey and my mom, who passed away 7 months ago.
I wish my kids could have grown up as we did in the 80s. Something is broken for our children today. They are lost, dispossessed, and depressed and it breaks my heart.
The twin towers were a symbol of richness, power, wealth in USA but also peace, trade, balance. Once gone the world we knew changed and still changing now, even more quickly. Hopefully one day, somewhere in lower Manhattan, new twin towers will rise again....
I was 18 In 1985. I remember so Clearly the feeling of the time. It was Epic! I drenched myself in it. The 80s were the Absolute best. The pentacle of human existence. We had the values of the past and the beginning of technology. People had huge freedoms but the discipline to not destroy themselves. I’m telling you....it’s been all down hill since then. Anyone that was there can relate.
Tom I love your dog picture. The picture to your left is my dog Roxie. She passed away on Valentine's Day. She blessed our family for 12 years. She died of liver cancer. I was able to hold her and look into her eyes when she died. The last 5 minutes were awful. I really miss her. Stay safe. Semper Fi from an old Marine Sergeant.
Downhill in the precise way that will build the mother of all epic comebacks. Predictions are hard, especially about the future says Neils Bohr. I therefore say this. One is left with one choice. Become the future you want to predict! Dreams were born in the 80s. Clarity was born in the struggle and darkness that followed. Light comes next!
@@maximumprobability I Pray you are Right. I still fight the good fight. Still put a premium on Truth, Honesty and Justice. As do Most red blooded Americans. One Day......
I love sax in rock. Tim Cappello did a great job with the sax...I think he released his first album last year. I think I Still Believe was the first song of note he sang in as well though.
They dont make songs like this anymore. It envokes so many memories. That scene in Miami Vice when Crockett is walking the night streets of NYC is classic...RIP Dude
There is something about going out alone - without friends, without a date, just into the night. It's like a rite of passage for young men. It's magical.
Some of my best nights, just going where it takes you with nobody to give you doubt or spoil it, been in some situations i wouldn't like now but didn't care at the time and nothing bad happened.
@@mgratk The right seems MUCH more willing to cancel each other, and what they don't like, than the left. Just look at Liz Cheney and Sesame Street for god's sake. The literally voted to not consider her a Republican anymore because she dared to defy trump, and they sent out a press notice about how Sesame Street is not allowed at CPAC. Cancel Culture has become a staple of the right-wing. It's all they have left at this point.
There was something in the atmosphere in the 80s that I have yet to experience in any other decade. It was definitely a special time. Glad I was alive to fully take it in. ✨️💖✨️
I was pretty young for most of the 80's but i know what you mean. It seemed like every day and night was magical. Like there was a big adventure around every corner or some unknown something that was great that you were waiting for. The music was better, the movies were bigger. Everything seemed so much more alive. It had to be one of the absolute best decades ever.
Us 80s kids we have a special connection because we all experienced a magical time and wish we could go back to those days of freedom, hope, and such good times. My 60 birthday is not far off but my heart belongs to those halcyon days.
This is one of those moody, driving alone at night songs as the lights of the city slip by, kind of like how life slips by, and there's only the glow of the dashboard light, and you've got the stereo on listening to: "In the Air Tonight" "(Phil Collins), Wicked Games" (Chris Isaak), "Missing" (Everything but the Girl), "Careless Whisper" (Wham), "Ride like the Wind" (Christopher Cross), "Still they Ride" (Journey), "Starboy" (The Weekend), "Winds of Change" ( Scorpions), "Sunglasses at Night" (Corey Heart), "Separate Ways" (Journey), "You Belong to the City" (Glenn Frey), "The Heart of the Matter (Don Henley), "Seasons in the Sun" (Terry Jacks), "Sad Eyes" (Robert John), "Sailing" (Christopher Cross), "Who's Crying Now" (Journey), "Eye in the Sky (Alan Parsons Project), "Racing in the Street" (Bruce Springsteen), Pancho & Lefty (Willie Nelson & Merle Haggard), "Thrasher" (Neil Young), "Wild Horses" (The Rolling Stones), "Enjoy the Silence" (Depeche Mode), "Take My Breath" (The Weekend), "When the Smoke is Going Down" (Scorpions), "Comfortably Numb" (Pink Floyd), "Culling Voices" (Tool), "Separate Ways" (Teddy Thomson), "Never Surrender" (Corey Heart), "Two Faces" (Bruce Springsteen), "Gran Torino (Jamie Cullum), "The Speed of the Sound of Loneliness" (John Prine & Nanci Griffith), and finally to close out this playlist and to end our journey..."Goodbye" (Steve Earle, live from Austin TX)...
The sax is beautiful and drums are pretty good too, Glen Frey puts his heart into this song, love it and love everyone who loves it also, you have good taste.
I’m 28 years old so this music is a bit before my time and yet I’m drawn so strongly to it. Gotta love and appreciate good music no matter what time period 🤟🏽
That's probably because way back in 1985 (8 years and 9 months before you were born), your parents heard this song, loved it, played it repeatedly (on cassette), which cause their DNA to change to appreciate the sweet, sweet dulcet tones of a moody sax. You should thank them both. 🎷🎶
I turned 28 in May 1985. If it's any consolation 1985 and '86 were the last good years for pretty much everything, across the board. So if you were born in '93 (?) yeah, no way. I was born in '57, and everything's been lousy for most of mine; just not all. Either way, we're all living in this nightmare time, regardless of our ages. The good thing is you can enjoy things from all eras thanks to RUclips. In fact, I want to look at some '75 Monte Carlo videos right now! :-)
"Nobody knows where you're going, nobody cares where you've been..." And THAT, young people, is just one reason why the 80's genuinely belong to a much much much better time/place. Pretty much can't go anywhere, do much of anything (literally as well as comparatively speaking) nowadays. The world still existed on a manageable, human scale. I was 17 in 1985, and would go back again in a heartbeat...and not just for the youth. Cheers.
I agree. Most people who weren’t lucky enough to be around back then don’t know what they missed compared to today. The only other era I’ve heard about that compares to this is the 60’s.
Honestly i think thats an misunderstanding of the lyrics. "Nobody knows where you're going, nobody cares where you've been..." is still the mood of living in every big city. Its expresses the feeling of being one in a million. self-aware and living in it but stilll weirdly disconnectet from all the people around you. I think this music fits perfect in the zeitgeist of today. The 80s was the first decade that expressed this feeling of loneliness while being surrounded by millions perfectly and in various genres. And if you think that the youth feels other way today, its just what products want you believe. Still nobody cares where you have been, even though you post it on tiktok or instagram. Its just easier today to get out of the "grey" and get recognised than in the 80s. I do see the 80s superior against every other decade but i dont think that this song dont fit your narrative. Its timeless for me.
The Saxophone to me hands down the best instrument. I don't know why it was forgot about. Now we have to hear about Taylor Swift's childish break ups smh
Anyone else here after watching Thunder Force?...as an 80s kid, this song just hit the back of my throat with that chorus and sax. Choking up with sadness at how much I miss those wonderful days where things just felt simple and innocent...😪
80’s is irreplaceable. Thank God I am a 80’s baby that got to witness this most amazing era in music and movies too. Since I’ll be 36 in April, this stuff still sounds fucken refreshing to my ears compared to the garbage being made today. Long live the 80’s greatness hands down
New York what an outstanding city. I´m from Germany and been there for the first time two weeks ago. For me it was a dream come true. I love the 80´s and this song makes my heart beating faster and thinking of "my city".....
Did you go through the eighties with your head under a blanket? Were you unaware of the Cold War? The constant threat of imminent nuclear destruction? The "me" decade with its "greed is good" mantra? The eighties #&*$#! sucked. I couldn't wait for it to end. The music was pretty awesome, though.
I grew up in the 1980s and I don't think we will ever achieve the greatness that we did back then. Drive-in movies, the best TV shows, the best professional sports that were totally affordable and the hottest rocker chicks.
Glen Frey made some incredible solo music after the Eagles spit up. He used a fantastic sax player and had a friend who he co-wrote with. Very, very underrated solo career,
I was in my mid 20's..I worked in lower Manhattan. I had NY Rangers season tix so, I was in midtown all the time. Many of the locations in this video were familiar to me. During this period, NYC was just pulling out of a deep economic slump. The subways were dangerous, Crime was a bad problem. The City was quite grimy. But we made the best of it. Better times for NYC were on the way!!!
20 years since the 9/11 attacks.. its just feels strange, nostalgic, and comforting all at the same time to see that old New York City skyline with the twin towers in the background. As a lifelong New Yorker ill always love this video. RIP Glenn, and RIP to all we lost on 9/11/2001.
I know 2 people from NY and both independently said the same thing. According to them, the city was great during the 80s and 90s but since the attacks it changed so much that it is not worth living there anymore. One of them actually moved to Tampa, got a good job opportunity there in 2018.
I'm British and I've never been to the US, but I know much about your country from the movies I've seen. I've seen lots of movies set in New York city. I to miss the twin towers, obviously not to the degree that you do, but I feel a sense of loss, it's strange, hard to explain. God bless New York city and the victims of 9/11. ❤️🇬🇧
Man, if this song doesn't take you back to the 80's, were you EVER really there?

I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.

Absolutely I feel it! Like an overwelming feeling of nostalgia and wanting to go back to this time and having a sence of dread that we will never be able to live and feel what we felt then ever again! I want to go back to the 70s and 80s so bad!
From Poland. I feel the same. Song is very nostalgic. Maybe not ideal but normal world was in the 80's.
It gives me chills

You took the words right out of my mouth.
This generation is caught up in the matrix. You don't know whats real or fake no more. It's sad.
I agree except the music in the 70s well only10% is worth remembering. It was a dry period of talent.
My thoughts exactly! I was born in 74.
I was born in the 50's - in my 30's in the 80's - what a time to be alive with such great music
That sax intro is hauntingly profound, should be immortalized in the history of rock.
Agreed ! 👍 🎷
this masterpiece is so good i just dont have words to describe how good you once were music wise, PEAK of all peaks.
This is an absolutely fantastic song , Glen Frey is so cool in this video
Yes. Outstanding saxophone work.
Does anyone know who played the sax in the studio recording? I'll give you one guess.

Scarface, First Blood, Ferrari GTO 288, the birth of many superbikes, Run DMC, White Lines, Fast Times at Ridgemont High. First time seeing Rob Lowe, Tom Cruise, Patrick Swawze, Diane Lane, Sherilyn Fenn, Oprah, listening to Siskel and Ebert discussing great movies, Dallas, Dynasty, Fieros, Supras, MR2, cars I loved, HBO and Cinemax and Showtime and The Movie Channel were a movie fans dream entertainment. Eddie Murphy, Arnold put out his best movies and really became famous, bodybuilding and fitness was in, Jane Fonda aerobics, leg warmers for aerobics, people had more class and were better looking, even their female adult stars were much more desirable. Raging Bull, Kevin Bacon, Top Gun, Kevin Cosner, Mike Tyson, Madonna was huge! Miami Vice, Magnum PI, Fantasy Island, Judas Priest, Ozzy. MTV actually played music videos, Michael Jackson, CNN wasn't fake news. CNN used to give the same headline news each half hour, it wasn't a propaganda show with tons of media narrative. Reagan and Reaganomics, lots of movies sold with the help of nudity, Sharon Stone became famous in Irreconcilable Differences, lots of horror movies, Conan the Barbarian, Dave Letterman. Places were better, didn't have so many homeless people, and cities were beautiful. Three's Company, when San Fran was a whole lot different. Robin Williams first appeared as Mork, Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn and James Stewart and lots of Hollywood royalty were still alive, Grace Kelly was still here. Well, if you read this, it was fun thinking of back then, and I could keep going! A great and very special decade!
Let's build a time machine and go back to the 80's!
I agree. I was married in 81, we had a little boy in 82 then another little boy in 85. Worked all the time, time flew by. Wish I could go back and slow down those days. There were some great music in the 80s.
I will go with ya.
what makes you think we haven't already
Kids isolating themselves with Walkman headphones, the birth of the home video system Atari, VHS stay at home entertainment... the 80s was the womb of today's disaster. Granted the music was exceptional then
@@chipbuttytime3396 You do have some valid points.
1984 had a 1964 Corvette coup, a smoking hot girlfriend, trying to figure out the future while working and going to college. Great music, no cell phones. Life was simple. I wish I could go back. There will never be another decade like the 80’s.

No words for how this song makes me feel. His voice…the sax…the lyrics. Damn.
It's my personal favorite Rebecca. It let Glenn live up to his full 80's potential. The beautiful young woman in pastel blue gives an idea of almost, almost what Marilyn Monroe could have looked like at that same age in the mid-80's. We'll never know, but for sure realistic enough to contemplate.
It's a Eargasm friend ... Just like that ...
He wants to sax the blonde. 🤣
Me too. He was so hot too!!

Few recognize what a significant impact Miami Vice had on television and popular culture during the 80’s. Glenn Frey’s music certainly contributed to that.
Jan Hammer did soundtrack on their shows if I remember correctly. And I did.
That's not what happened here.

Miami vice was one of my favourite tv shows.Crockett and tubs were BAD ASS .And the music was GREAT.

This song was featured in Miami Vice, Season 2, Episode 1 - The Prodigal Son, my absolute favorite episode of the series.

Nostalgia. It's a terrible thing. Makes you look back to a time where you don't remember the bad, but only remember the good. This song brings back so many memories from what seems like 5 lifetimes ago.
I remember the bad - lost two of my biological brothers, sustained my life through Stage 4 cancer, laid off - unable to work, no insurance I could afford - who the f*ck "needs" to remember the bad without reaching out to the "good times" gone by!
I can appreciate an honest and realistic response. I am so tired of "they don't make songs like this anymore". Kids these days have their own memories and music to grow nostalgic on. It's the same for every generation.
Точно подмечено👍
What’s terrible about remembering the good.

It's criminal that this song doesn't have millions and millions more views. One of the greatest songs of all time. Rest in Power, Glenn.

Absolutely 💯
Someone keeps taking it down, there’s live versions uploaded frequently but copyrights 🙄
Glenn Lives Matter
Even radio stations that cater to 80s music fans don't give this song any respect. They really don't give Glenn much respect at all. Our local 80s station did a tribute to him when he died by playing three Eagles songs. All sung by Henley.

We still had hope then, and it wasn't because we were young. It was because of the cultural climate. The cultural climate of the 21st Century discourages hope if it doesn't outright kill it.

Friday nights belonged to Miami Vice when I was a kid. The style, the music. It was just the coolest thing on TV.
I watched Miami vice for the music and clothes. Had 0 clue what the plot was about as a 12 yr old kid.
I was a kid, lived in Fort Pierce FL. Definitely the coolest. I am still a fan of Mr. Johnson.

@@dinamule3073 You didn't miss much. Going after drug smugglers with bad acting. Rinse and repeat. The music and fashion were the only reason to watch
@@sbeni2 As compared with today's programming. John wants to get a sex change and be called Gina. Sue wants to adopt a child with her Lesbian lover, and then give the kid estrogen in an attempt to turn a Boy into a Girl. Meanwhile back at the office, Carol is offended that Jason had a picture of a swimsuit model for his screensaver. Jason has since removed said picture, apologized to the entire office,and replaced it with a Lesbian Seagull, but Sue is now triggered.The company has scheduled 6 weeks of sensitivity training because "it's not natural for a man to look at attractive Women that way". The "tough guys" in the movies now drive Toyota's, because their wives told them to. Nah. Miami Vice was EXCELLENT programming. Just not really suited for Women....or apparently you..

RIP Glenn. Your music continues to bring joy to millions!
I'm from Russia. I'm 24. But I have always been interested in American cinema and music of the second half of the XX century. And the atmosphere of the mid-1980s makes me feel a special sense of loss, of what happened - but not with me. This fashion, this New York at night, these yellow taxis... And this song, like many other musical masterpieces, is forever on my playlist.
50ies to 90ies it was more about life and everything that took place on the streets of nyc so dynamic
You and me
One of the greats
Forget the cinema most of it is propaganda. It's hard to beat this music.
To me the 80's were the best. At first in the 90's I liked grunge music but now I find it a little depressing. The 80's was very attractive decade.
Whoever you are, if you’re listening to this, you have Good taste in music.

@@JoseMartinez-jw2dy lol....nice touch.
I remember being a kid around 3 years old when this song came out. At the time, my mom was working at a restaurant in downtown San Francisco. The nights that my dad would pick up my mom from work, he would take my brother and me to pick her up, and this song was always playing. It was fun being a young kid sitting in the back seat of the car listening to this song while driving through downtown San Francisco at night. As a young kid anytime my dad would say "hey do you guys want to go pick up mom, I instantly started singing "You belong to the city" in my head. Now that I'm pushing towards 40, I now play this song when I take weekend night drives in the city with my wife and daughter.
I remember driving with my uncle on trips to other states and listening to Linda Ronstadt, eye of the tiger, and other 80's tunes.
@@robynvanhorn Those must have been great times! 80s music seems to be one of the best genres when in the car or when you want to just chill

@@markt5703 First, nice name! I thought I was commenting back to myself haha. You remember this song even though you were 2 months old? Wow, you have great memory.

I'm closing in on 80 years old. My 2 daughters were in their teens when this music was big. Maybe I got it from them. Always running in "Here Daddy, Listen to this." Our country / no our world will never be the same. Wonderful music.
Born in '78, so GRATEFUL I grew up in the 80's. Music like this almost brings tears to my eyes, days will never be the same. What a time and young people today will never know what it was like and for that I feel sorry for them.
Me too. I was born in 1973 and grew up with Glenn Frey and The Eagles. There was nothing like the '80's! Too bad that what we have today is not a tenth as good. Hopefully we can all have something better soon. I'd settle for something even half as great as the '80's. Cheers from northeast Ohio.
@@johnsmith2046 70's and 80's had the best music, great song writers, and great melodies they dont make them like that anymore

I thought that was a rumour... omg
Sadly no. Not sure if the lawsuit over his death was ever settled though.
@@matth1143 How did he died
He was suffering from arthritis and was prescribed a medicine that supposedly led to his contracting colitis and pneumonia. He developed complications from the latter and was put into a medically induced coma where he died from complications of all three. It has been suggested that the medicines he was given may have compromised his ability to fight off the pneumonia and may have contributed to his death in that way. His widow Cindy Millican filed suit against the hospital and I think maybe his doc/surgeon for wrongful death.
You are so right. Best song by this great singer.
As a Boomer the 50's were legendary, but the 80's were better because we lived it. I hope current or future generations have an era as cool or better than what we had, but I don't see how.

Glenn Frey was born a day after me, November 5. I was born November 4, 2004. I'm not into the trash music today. I'm into 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, and early to late 2000's music. My parents taught me the good music. Love this song. It makes me think of walking through the city at night with bright neon light signs glowing everywhere.

@ALF ALPHA I was in New York in 1991 and saw the Twin Towers but didn't go up to the observation deck. 10 years later they were gone.
I love this video, but I cringe inwardly every time I see the shots of the Twin Towers.
The twin towers were a symbol of richness, power, wealth in USA but also peace, trade, balance. Once gone the world we knew changed and still changing now, even more quickly.
Hopefully one day, somewhere in lower Manhattan, new twin towers will rise again....
Doesn’t get any better. Loved the 80s. One of my favorite videos ever.😊
I was 18 In 1985. I remember so Clearly the feeling of the time. It was Epic! I drenched myself in it. The 80s were the Absolute best. The pentacle of human existence. We had the values of the past and the beginning of technology. People had huge freedoms but the discipline to not destroy themselves.
I’m telling you....it’s been all down hill since then. Anyone that was there can relate.
Tom I love your dog picture. The picture to your left is my dog Roxie. She passed away on Valentine's Day. She blessed our family for 12 years. She died of liver cancer.

Downhill in the precise way that will build the mother of all epic comebacks. Predictions are hard, especially about the future says Neils Bohr. I therefore say this. One is left with one choice. Become the future you want to predict!
Dreams were born in the 80s. Clarity was born in the struggle and darkness that followed. Light comes next!

I’m 28 years old so this music is a bit before my time and yet I’m drawn so strongly to it. Gotta love and appreciate good music no matter what time period 🤟🏽
That's probably because way back in 1985 (8 years and 9 months before you were born), your parents heard this song, loved it, played it repeatedly (on cassette), which cause their DNA to change to appreciate the sweet, sweet dulcet tones of a moody sax. You should thank them both. 🎷🎶
That means you have good taste in music..
@@2011lizalex thank you 🙏🏽
I turned 28 in May 1985. If it's any consolation 1985 and '86 were the last good years for pretty much everything, across the board. So if you were born in '93 (?) yeah, no way. I was born in '57, and everything's been lousy for most of mine; just not all. Either way, we're all living in this nightmare time, regardless of our ages. The good thing is you can enjoy things from all eras thanks to RUclips. In fact, I want to look at some '75 Monte Carlo videos right now! :-)
I'm almost 6 years old and i think this stuff is the best!
"Nobody knows where you're going, nobody cares where you've been..." And THAT, young people, is just one reason why the 80's genuinely belong to a much much much better time/place. Pretty much can't go anywhere, do much of anything (literally as well as comparatively speaking) nowadays. The world still existed on a manageable, human scale. I was 17 in 1985, and would go back again in a heartbeat...and not just for the youth. Cheers.
I agree. Most people who weren’t lucky enough to be around back then don’t know what they missed compared to today. The only other era I’ve heard about that compares to this is the 60’s.
Yeah and no smart phones or social media to track people or peer pressure people to always say where they've been!
All I know is we'll never see anything like that again.
1984
Honestly i think thats an misunderstanding of the lyrics. "Nobody knows where you're going, nobody cares where you've been..." is still the mood of living in every big city. Its expresses the feeling of being one in a million. self-aware and living in it but stilll weirdly disconnectet from all the people around you. I think this music fits perfect in the zeitgeist of today.
The 80s was the first decade that expressed this feeling of loneliness while being surrounded by millions perfectly and in various genres.
And if you think that the youth feels other way today, its just what products want you believe. Still nobody cares where you have been, even though you post it on tiktok or instagram. Its just easier today to get out of the "grey" and get recognised than in the 80s.
I do see the 80s superior against every other decade but i dont think that this song dont fit your narrative.
Its timeless for me.
No wonder why the Eagles had so many hits. So many talented musicians in that group.
Fact!
Indeed, Don Henley and Glenn Frey could rival Lennon and McCartney when it came to writing timeless classics…legends!
Super Team of artists
Is he from the Eagles, hotel California?
@@Band_Aid_Man_ _Absolutely. He and Don Henley formed the Eagles, with an introduction by Linda Ronstadt._
Loving that saxophone, really miss the 80's
Look up the sythwave band (The Midnight) you can thank me later
The Saxophone to me hands down the best instrument. I don't know why it was forgot about. Now we have to hear about Taylor Swift's childish break ups smh
I was thinking that too, yesterday. The saxophone adds so much
I agree the saxophone does add to the song, my boyfriend plays the saxophone both tenor and alto
This is a 80s song that touches my soul. Each year that goes by I miss the 80s even more 😢
Ahh yes. Me too. Great times.
Absolutely correct 80's are missed tremendously
Amen
Me too, buddy. The 80's is where it was at.
The 80s was the best decade, i miss this time 🥲
Anyone else here after watching Thunder Force?...as an 80s kid, this song just hit the back of my throat with that chorus and sax. Choking up with sadness at how much I miss those wonderful days where things just felt simple and innocent...😪
Yup 😂
Yup same. I had forgotten about this song. The 80s were so much happier and easier.
Yes. And watching that shitty movie was worth it because i discovered this song!
@@edamons 😂 exactly my thoughts!
🖐🏼
11/2024. Bring back the 80/90s style and music! 😢
Here here
Yes, I love the style
Clothing, big hair, makup.
Time to build a time machine
RIP Glenn Frey. This was a great song.
80’s is irreplaceable. Thank God I am a 80’s baby that got to witness this most amazing era in music and movies too. Since I’ll be 36 in April, this stuff still sounds fucken refreshing to my ears compared to the garbage being made today.
Long live the 80’s greatness hands down
Me two i be 36 in August
Ksi Roby Wow what a cool coincidence. I guess you were born in 1983 then too eh?
You're just a pup, but yes this is good tunes. I like the music of my earlier times during Vietnam, we had some killer tunes then too
Cool!
NJDevils IsMyTeam2112535 not all new music is bad listen bb kings bluesville or other stations
❤❤❤❤the Legendary 80'ssssss ❤❤❤❤ March 22, 2024.
New York what an outstanding city. I´m from Germany and been there for the first time two weeks ago. For me it was a dream come true. I love the 80´s and this song makes my heart beating faster and thinking of "my city".....
in this Corona world, my heart aches for the eighties..the peace, the blue sky, the fun and laughter...
And the cocaine
Did you go through the eighties with your head under a blanket? Were you unaware of the Cold War? The constant threat of imminent nuclear destruction? The "me" decade with its "greed is good" mantra? The eighties #&*$#! sucked. I couldn't wait for it to end. The music was pretty awesome, though.
Well...the 80s brought AIDS
And Donald Trump was just some random conceited yuppie.
@@JadeDude1973 D@#^. Point in the 80s' favor.
R.I.P. Glenn Frye - great contribution to music via Eagles and individually
My favorite eagle
Loved that man. Pretty sad that he drank, smoked and never learned to cross the street properly; he'll be missed forever.
Music like this takes me back. Glad I got to experience the 80s as a kid.
Keith C me too the 1980’s were the best times if only there was a time machine
First i thought for years, i couldn't do this, listen to my kid/teen eyperiences, because it would hurt to much!! But now i do it. It's great :)
Yeah me too. We're the last ones who remember when society was still basically sane.
I’m 49 I know the best years of my life they can keep 2019 2020 and so forth.
@@21372745
Hahaha, yes they can just keep it
R.I.P. Glenn Frey. You will forever be missed! CLASSIC 👊🔥
I grew up in the 1980s and I don't think we will ever achieve the greatness that we did back then. Drive-in movies, the best TV shows, the best professional sports that were totally affordable and the hottest rocker chicks.
Yes, it was a great great time, it has to be said..!!
I can relate to all of you native speasks. Here, from Far east.
Unforgettable 80s and Miami Vice on the telly. The world is screwed now.
Im talking totally screwed I don't know who's having any fun in this crap right now the sheeple are walking zombies for real now🐏🐏👎
always,thing's was simple not like now
Nothing makes sense anymore because liberals have gone completely insane making unreasonable demands.
As Eddie Money said I wanna go back and do it all over again
@@joshhuskins5363 yep and make some easy Easy Money 💰💰
Glen Frey made some incredible solo music after the Eagles spit up. He used a fantastic sax player and had a friend who he co-wrote with. Very, very underrated solo career,
Yes, he did, he really really did...!!
You mean "split up"
He was a great man in music. I heard he was also a great actor, which may have helped his days as a solo artist.

@@annettestobb2847 I got into his music after hearing it on Miami Vice... his acting on that show wasn't bad either.
I was in my mid 20's..I worked in lower Manhattan. I had NY Rangers season tix so, I was in midtown all the time. Many of the locations in this video were familiar to me.
During this period, NYC was just pulling out of a deep economic slump. The subways were dangerous, Crime was a bad problem. The City was quite grimy. But we made the best of it. Better times for NYC were on the way!!!
20 years since the 9/11 attacks.. its just feels strange, nostalgic, and comforting all at the same time to see that old New York City skyline with the twin towers in the background. As a lifelong New Yorker ill always love this video. RIP Glenn, and RIP to all we lost on 9/11/2001.
I know 2 people from NY and both independently said the same thing.
According to them, the city was great during the 80s and 90s but since the attacks it changed so much that it is not worth living there anymore.
One of them actually moved to Tampa, got a good job opportunity there in 2018.
AMEN!!! SAY IT AGAIN 😢😔✌️
I agree. I have been to NYC just one time, on 2011. Heartbreaking I never saw the twin towers in person. :-(
fuck new york and fuck everybody from new york
I'm British and I've never been to the US, but I know much about your country from the movies I've seen. I've seen lots of movies set in New York city. I to miss the twin towers, obviously not to the degree that you do, but I feel a sense of loss, it's strange, hard to explain. God bless New York city and the victims of 9/11. ❤️🇬🇧
take me back to the eighties please..today doesn't feel the same!
Starlight today plain out sucks
it sure does, and people today have the worst negative, bullying attitude. Honestly most of them deserve to have no friends at all.
Reserve a seat in your time machine for me.
DesertRose122 today most definitely is not the same. Today sucks ass! I hate what this world and so many of the people in it have become.
indeed, the comment above from Daddy O, on my posting the lyrics..he who thinks he's a tough guy, proves today is full of weirdos! :)
When your old and you just start singing songs you grow up with in your head!❤
When your what is old?
