"Crockett's Theme" - Jan Hammer (original version)

[mwells219]

tubbs = pimp

[YoungMan700]

Q-Music NL brought me here ;p

[DrSurprise]

@YoungMan700

lol, first it's "cocaine" and now someone else? Lol, I think i'm missing something. Have they made videos in which they talked about this specific video or just the song in general?

[YoungMan700]

@DrSurprise Q-Music is a radio station, and when they played this song, listeners can call the station, and then the listeners are on-air on the radio...

[MrSexyaligator]

Original is the best version!

[Aardvarkwrangla]

@Drsurprise Cocaine is a Gmod video (a video using a game engine called source) that uses this music.

[MDoc90]

This must have been the Ferrari waiting room music in the 80's.

[acf2802]

Miami Vice brought me here

[HurricaneCity4000]

simcity brought me hear to

tololol

[tunandg]

Cocaine xD

[sakusia]

Anyone who says cocaine brought them here is an idiot.Why are you condoning such a harmful substance? If anything Miami Vice was about keeping the streets clean of drugs. I'm sure South Florida has a huge problem with Drugs.Sometimes in order to catch the bad guys you must delve into their world. That's why Crockett & Tubbs were so successful, because they showed us how you have to behave in order to fight evil.

[BoyWhoLikesTV]

@sakusia I'm with ya, bro.

[FordPrefect23]

@sakusia Idiot.......

[jesterjacobs]

@sakusia Have some drugs ya fuckin square.

[panniertankboy8751]

@sakusia /watch?v=_D3zYIkEbyg

watch this and all of that will come into context.

[Antimorgan22]

yes cocaine:DDDDDDD

[TheJonnyblade]

I agree

[Mongomediaify]

Good taste in music...and the video called "cocaine" brought me here.

[creedmaestro194]

I don't think Jan Hammer would want this song dedicated to cocaine :/

[bnsf9379]

@creedmaestro194 Agreed!

[dvnupldr]

didn't some finnish radio station use this as a theme in the mid-90s? if any1 remembers, lemme know! good times

[belladonnadestiny]

whatever happened to good instrumentals like this? Yes, and the original is the best!

[roppasmoka]

cocaine brought me here

[DrSurprise]

@roppasmoka

lol, Is that a youtube user? Kinda like when someone says "Ray William Johnson brought me here" or do you actually mean the real substance?

[AntMan9751]

@DrSurprise He's talking about the video made by AlegaroalE, although that last part could be true as well.

[theforrestwhaley]

@DrSurprise No,its a video made by R33MIX.

[DarkDanger23]

@DrSurprise it is a TF2 Video

[KirilProkopov]

@DrSurprise

No it is a video from a game called Team Fortress 2!You might know it.

Just Type in Cocaine, it will come out!

[VolvagiaFreak]

@DrSurprise It is the name of a video inspired by the substance. So you were close on both counts. Made by AlegaroalE. Youtube won't let me copypasta addresses for some reason.

[freemodforgames]

@DrSurprise cocaine is a tf2 video "brilliantly idiotic,retarded and indescribable" about tf2?

[PropagandaPenguin]

@DrSurprise theres a video that used this song about a TF2 heavies Cocaine

[Dharkhaze17]

@DrSurprise no, it's the tf2 cocaine video

[Ffish69Jr]

@DrSurprise /watch?NR=1&v=_D3zYIkEbyg&feat­ure=fvwp

Cocaine

[MrAlexanchez]

музыка классная!!!

[walter4092]

last months on vtm ( Belgium commerciel tv ) every saturday and sunday morning we could seen every episode of this great serie of the 80 and begin 90 .And enjoy it , what happened with the black guy in between ? 

[Meteddica]

There are few things in life cooler than driving across the biggest bridge in Vice City at sunset while this song players.

[Stupido91]

@Meteddica I prefer riding in a REAL car with this track playing

[Meteddica]

@Stupido91 I don't drive, but if I did, I'd be all over it!

[heroknaderi]

cool

[McRiccoEST]

Vote if u like it in 2011

[Kearnage]

7 people havent experience the lance vance dance

[garyw930]

May I recommend the book 'A Concise Guide To Eighties Music' by Karl Vorderman. The author is a big fan of this fine instrumental.

[The096757]

i never saw one episoide of miami vice but when i found this song in 2011 it took me take to late 87 very early 1988 and the place i used to work at. i saw this on a cd compilation of songs from 1987 and when i youtubed this song it took me back to that time. i totally forgot about this song mostly because i never really caught the name of it back then. a dj told me it was from miami vice but it was not registering to me back then because it was 1987/88 and miami vice was a 1985 phenonmena

[churchy1ify]

@The096757 Same here, just listening to it though makes me want to go out and get the dvds

[BizzyBlizz]

EPIC!

[satyr22cz]

Yeah fucking retards with all songs wrote GTA VC-VCS-SA-IV !!!

**great song and tv show**

[weskerfan70]

That show, that song! It rulez! *puttin on shades* gotta listen in style...yeah!

[garyw930]

May I recommend the book 'A Concise Guide To Eighties Music' by Karl Vorderman. The author is a big fan of this fine instrumental.

[cskk2007]

One of the coolest soundtracks ever produced!!!!! Chris from Hungary..

[darwouine]

Yeeppppaaaah ^_^

[WalterB72]

I got this series and soundtrack deep in my heart.........

[ursa41]

Nothing, BUT NOTHING, beats an Original! EVER! And that is Life's rule of thumb!

[dd2979]

@ursa41

Yes!!

[Ainocorrida81]

If you like Jan Hammer watch the documentary 'Cocaine Cowboys' two hours of the stuff, and a great film thrown in for free.

[tristram599]

Cocaine

[Gongopod5]

@tristram599 MAH COCAINE!

[DarkDanger23]

@tristram599 Niet!

[goldengnads]

This is such a beautiful composition. This is what the 80's sound like to me.

[Greennaxx123]

this song is relaxing to me :D

[AncientHistoryBuff]

does Vangelis' version count as a remix? (believe it or not, I'm only just now listening to this music for the first time ever).

[clownsandjugglers]

As someone who grew up in the eighties I remember at the time people going on about how awful it was and how the sixties and seventies were much better! The nineties were not well regarded at the time either.

[royaldice75]

Have always loved the original......

[BoyWhoLikesTV]

i was born in '93 and for some reason i saw the re-runs of this and could not get this out of my head. Also, todays music does not compare to any kind of awsome music in the past. I praticly hate all the artist of this decade. the only way i can live with my self is listen to a bunch of awsome 80's music.

[badkarma44]

@BoyWhoLikesTV more power to you my man, we all feel the same way

[BoyWhoLikesTV]

@badkarma44 If you like this, listen to "Summer Maddness".

[Leondrius]

@BoyWhoLikesTV Yes, agreed. Classics are timeless. Today they produce nothing that will be remembered

[BoyWhoLikesTV]

@Leondrius Thank you and tell me, have you played GTA Vice City?

[Leondrius]

@BoyWhoLikesTV Yes, a little bit years ago. Never took the missions seriously, just had joyriding sprees and multiple standoffs with the cops and the army :P

[BoyWhoLikesTV]

@Leondrius Same here. It took me a year and plus to finish it. My god, at first I listend to Flash Fm., then I fell in love with Emotion 98.3

[Leondrius]

@BoyWhoLikesTV Oh, I didn't get to play it enough to know the stations well

[BoyWhoLikesTV]

@Leondrius No problem. At least we agree the music is fuckn' awsome. >)

[Leondrius]

@BoyWhoLikesTV LOL, yeah

[MaikelKnigth]

This song is deep, very deep

[badkarma44]

the most awesome going to beach theme,,,,period. don johnson approval

[djdinnum]

looks like don maxed his card in american apparel london yesterday

[daultrabomb]

what they call "music" today doesn't even come close to this masterpiece!!

[ursa41]

This song ROCKS!!! Cannot get any better than that.....

[megaalexandros78]

Big Big!!!!

[KyoriSato]

As the saying (or song goes): Ain't nothing like the real thing baby and this theme proves it, the original is best.

[Untergrundstar]

GTA VICE CITY!!!

[wildsmiley]

@Untergrundstar I feel like doin' some coke and driving down on Ocean Beach on my motorbike and look moody when I hear this song.

[MaxSchneiderOfficial]

I wonder why the guys from Miami Vice didn't hunt Tony Montana O.o

[arieltr]

Nothing beats the original song... Great times man, nothing like the 80's

[MYBIGKINDHEART]

this version is much better and the way i remember it, oh and miami vice was great as well

[logom0]

i take back what i said about nobody having any style in the 80's....

[imponderabiliaTV]

whats that smell?

[khiemvu790]

An excellent soundtrack.

[Dristarg]

Sounds very influenced by Jarre's "Oxygene".

[Duskwood1]

Songs like this make me flashback- I wish I could go back in time and relive the 80's again. This time I would have payed more attention to all that was going on in the best human decade so far to date.

[RGGMtyMx]

no remake of anything "80s" will every top the 80s original...be it music, exotic cars, style, modernity, and foreverness

[MegaKeel1]

I heard it on Gta and i searched and found it.

I like this song! Just repeat! 0:00

[ne4xx]

echt genial ohrwurm

[expat54321]

More than 20 years since that series had concluded. But still the HOTTEST COP DRAMA, MIAMI VICE.!

Thank you for uploading this great BGM, which is Crocket 's Theme.

One of my all-time favorites among all the soundtracks I have ever listened to.

[Macedoniansss]

symbol of the '80s

[QuietStormMan]

Like a beautiful synthesized lullaby for adult battling insomnia.

[mpmarach]

Great song...thank you.

[MrChef5]

original version

[BlackStar250874]

The Best Version... No question about it :)

Ah....LP-discs and 80's...

[monsterkody1988]

Best version fuck remixes!!!!!

[adamguy911]

I love being the "wierd loner guy who loves the 80's" . I can just sit back and enjoy music, from back when music was pure.

Kind of poetic, really.

[alibaba3273]

This song is awesome - a real master piece!

Just a Cool Feeling :)

It is perfect as is...unreacheable with a remix

[cjddalton]

Every time I hear a remix of this I'm reminded of how the changes don't make it any better. It's a perfect tune.

[DIJV79]

I loved this T.V show as a kid.

[gluserty]

@DIJV79 Me too! I learned there was more than flasy looks and colors; the storylines had some serious meat, too:-)

[SelbstmordZweig]

<3

[Cazkumali]

what year was this song released

[TheFiko44]

@Cazkumali Golden Years...70s and 80s :)

[snakeversusgoat]

NATWEST RIDDIM

[poopx900]

thanks so much for the upload! this is the best one on youtube :D

[MrAdammassacre]

i wanna go play GTA now :D

[sakusia]

very sad song makes me cry but beautiful at the same time.

[Spirit9Ahmedm9]

@sakusia hows it sad S:

[FiREFLYSerenity408]

Miami Vice is one of my favorite shows ever!!! pure 80s!!

[ftceleb]

better than deadmou5 =O

<3 <3 i love this

[JosetteRoses]

This song makes me feel infinite.

My Mum used to play it a lot when I was a kid.

She played many songs, but this is the one that will always stay with me.

I am at my true happiest when I head this track.

And i'm almost never corny about songs.

[JosetteRoses]

@JosetteRoses

*hear..

woops!

[cdfisk]

@JosetteRoses Don't ever let anyone make u feel corny about a song u like. Music is meant to invoke emotion, let it in and don't be ashamed of it. :)

[JosetteRoses]

@cdfisk

Awh. Thanks :) I shall stand proud, and wear the tears on my cheeks like flags.

[AlexGTAgamer]

Songs like this just reminds me of why I love the 80s. <3

[harmmac2002]

I like this song so much!

[mtmbatou]

Geil!

[LwB2007]

I know this song from when I was 5 years old (i'm 25 now). Didn't know wich song it was untill i heart this song today on the radio ... I Love it

[sedmoagalnikful]

5 people so much liked the song that they accidently pressed dont like

[1ania11]

I love it!

[MacTireMhaighEo]

Do any UK based people remember this being the background music to the classified football results round up on Grandstand, as read out by Ds Lyneham in the late 80's and early 90's? This music will live with me forever because of that. Wolves won the 4th and 3rd divisions in consecutive seasons during this time and seeing our results come through combined with this music was awsome.

[nparga23]

the 80s were the best years

[KAATSER1956]

@nparga23 Indeed

[jghatora1]

1980s Chic. This music very captures the time so well

[KrissiEmke]

Love this so much

[drinumosta]

Perfect Summer chillout song :)

[drinumosta]

chillout tune *

[gtp351]

oh yeah, this song makes me want to steal a corvette and kill a bunch of random people, ill blame that on gta. Still this is so epic and defines the 80"s sound for me.

[gtp351]

[theGalwayBlazer]

fabulous, haunting, superbe.  Takes me back.....

[flyleaf1982]

thanks for this. it's one of my favorites

[jaminadams]

yes.. the og is best..

[jooseholppa]

just listen to that guitar. it' biblical

[KaramelLolaBunnie91]

this 1 is perfect da real version

[gentlehyeman]

This tune is a masterpiece.

[sco77w]

Always felt that the section between 0:10 and 0:35 is the finest part of the track.

[sco77w]

Has not aged one bit. Remember at time of release, everyone thought it was unbelievable.

[kurisux]

A few months ago I finally snaged the second Miami Vice soundtrack, which has this on there.

Oh, finally, to hear it in the best quality possible. :D

[superfatamusic]

One of, if not THE VERY, best instrumental hits of the eighties. And also one of the most remixed to midiocraty. The original is AWESOME.

[AlexOelke]

Gta Vice City & Miami Vice :):):)

can't get any better :)

a real classic. perfect :)

80's (::

♥

[mynamesnotkenny]

is this real

lol

[yungbraddock]

HELLO PEOPLE IT'S Tommy Vercetti-N-Lance Vance from GTA VICE CITY!!! BUH!!

good song though i LUV it ^_^. original is DA BOMB but, da REMIXEZ i agree wit DrSurprise.

[theGalwayBlazer]

This is THE ONE!!!!! Had to wade through a load of rubbish to get it. Never mind, was worth it.

[goobsterface]

i love it

[Timmy1107]

Man. This is among the best tunes I've ever heard (and prob will hear)

[jonzxcv]

remixes are ass. original for the win

[fallenwillrise]

especially if the original is great already. no need to fuck with it

[supervillain303]

this's just beautiful. thx to jan hammer. great hit.

[pabloplato]

which remixes has everyone listened to? i'm sure theres a ton of shitty generic-kazaa mislabled style "techno" or "trance"remixes out there, but please dont tell me you're also bashing FPU's remake from 2002, if you're going to like one remake FPU's would be the one to enjoy. (and the remixes contained on the original fpu release ep are also good in their own ways).

[DrSurprise]

who cares what remixes there are! they kill and make the song sound bad! a song needs to be heard and preserved the way it was performed and written. be remixing, it makes it sound unattracting and horrible.

its like puting salt and pepper on ice cream instead of sprinkles or cookie crumbs

[Xylaquin]

@DrSurprise

I agree, but some remixes are good. The fact that Crockett's Theme can be remixed so well just boosts it's awesomeness. The original will always be the best though

[pat2rome]

@DrSurprise Yes, this version blows every other version away, it's not even close. But nobody could ever make this song sound bad.

[Kattuk]

Have all seasons, thanks Jan Hammer, for making THIS music!

[TalynScaper]

The original has been and always will be THE BEST!

[V3rbat1m]

even if i'm only 17 years old, i love miami vice and of course (only) the original crockett theme!

the remixed versions are real garbage compared to the original version of this theme

[offbyonetoo]

It is a tribute to Jan Hammer's famous talent that his original music reaches and touches equally more than one generation. Thanks, V3bat1m, for your comment. Those of us who were "there", who watched the series on TV, starting in 1984, were amazed then and we still are, along with you.

[Necroman666]

this is so vice city and 80's

[iiiiooou]

Yeah original version is the best.I can^t even listen remix versions those remixes make me feel sick

[TheDane2006]

- I got whole Miami Vice, Season one on DVD, its the greatest of all Cop-Series there have ever been made for television.

And nice Music for the series aswell.

[mafkees27]

love this song!!!!

[jaminadams]

need to gewt seasons four and five!

[alan727]

yeah i totally agree also the original is way better than the remix ones. Always will be.
