Really clean version. Turned it way up. Think I just lost 6 dB of hearing on that one. Ears bleeding and need a cigarette. What a song. Thanks for posting.
Chevy Chase was hilarious in this movie. It's much better than the better-known Vacation movies, in my opinion. I wish he had done more movies like this, as it is much more exemplary of his comedic genius.
Anyone else thought this song was from Beverly Hills Cop at first? When I found out they were the same composer I did the Peter Griffin "good for you" nod.
My god Harold, you have an amazing knack for writing songs. I am sorry it took me this long to know the name behind one of the best themes ever. Thanks for the upload mugabesunny
Yet another classic from '85...that year was phenominal for movies. I mean Back To The Future, Goonies, Explorers, Breakfast Club, Gotcha!, Witness, Young Sherlock Holmes, Fletch, Desperately Seeking Susan, Fright Night, After Hours, Return Of The Living Dead, Weird Science, Real Genius, Spies Like Us, Just One Of The Guys, A View To A Kill....'80's friggin' ruled.
This theme is so awesome and it rocks and it also is very,very funny and it feels like when you listen to it, it's like a person is walking on the sidewalks very funny and he is about to do something crazy,funny, wild, and stupid but that's what makes this theme awesome and I really like it
to each their own I personally love Chevy chase, but gotta respect people's opinions there are some people that just don't like Chevy chase's movies, not trying to be mean just saying.
their making another fletch film called fletch won but its not going to be chevy chase you cant have another fletch film without chevy chase i mean come on
@TheAcerdude Word has it, he may narrarate it, but he definately won't physically fletch, because this is allegedly going to be about fletch's early years
@bull864 ' ALL YOU NEED IS BALL BEARINGS, GAUZE PADS, AND PRESTONE ANTIFREEZE" HOW IS THAT NOT FUNNY?? one my favs of all time you are exactly right chevy is genius in comedies
What tipped it for me was something your wife said when we were in bed together. She said we were roughly the same size......from the waist up, I imagine.
There's a Swedish guitarist who goes by the name of Mattias IA Eklundh who did a cover of this; you can find it here on youtube. It's basically a faithful rendition, but with a load of noodling between phrases. Worth checking out if you like the original - and who doesn't?! - unless you're adverse to a bit of fretboard wankery.
Maybe Chevy Chase could do another Fletch and be a reporter for like a retirement home in Florida. With cases like..who stole Mrs. Jennings false teeth? or who shit in the sink?..that kinda stuff..lol.
I just finished watching Fletch 2 a few hours ago.. Loved both of them! I honestly don't think they should do another fletch since its not gonna be chevy chase playing fletch.... Why do directors gotta do that shyt?? Don't touch shyt that don't belong
hi, thats Harold Faltermeyer's score which you are wanting! Unfortunately, none of Fletch Lives has been released. I agree too, the opening track of Fletch lives is excellent!
@mugabesunny , Hi there, just want to inform you that the track was released the same time as the movie, and I can confirm that because I have the 45" single.
I absolutely love the Fletch movies!! It`s a shame they never made anymore, I also have two fletch novels, Fletch won and Fletch too. If they do decide to revamp the fletch movies , even though they`ll never find anybody who can play the part better than Chevy Chase, heres my choices for the role: 1, Ryan Reynolds. 2,Vince Vaughn. 3, Paul Rudd. 4, Jason Lee. 5, Will Ferrell
@s10jam Yeah I remember reading a while back that they wanted to do Fletch Won. In the book, its where Fletch firsts starts working at the newspaper. I read that at first Kevin Smith was gonna handle the project but the studio wouldn`t produce the money for him which Im glad because if he did write and direct it, the movie would of been loaded with cock and anal jokes, and the Fletch character deserves better than simple toilet humour.
expect to hear similar stuff to this track in the new Kevin Smith movie "Cop Out" aka "A Couple of Dicks", because Harold Faltermeyer is doing the entire music score!! synth comeback!!
@mikero08 Detective: You have the right to remain silent. You have the right to have your face kicked in by me. You have the right to have your balls stomped by him.
did anybody know that this song was in a tribute to ou football 1986 when they lost to miami.yes the university of oklahoma put ut a 1986 orange bowl video that was sold at qt for 9.99 and this song was one of the games son the dreadful loss to miami 16-28 loss barry switzer could not beat jimmy johnson when he coached miami.vennie testervertie you were a collage football quarterback king.
you 100% on that, the 80's was the best generation to live in, people didnt give a fuck then, much more easy going and less "look at me" attitude. the 90's sucked and the 00's is full of wannabes and third rate celebs.
He used a Sequential Circuits Prohet 5, a Roland Jupiter 8 and other classic synthesizers to make this track. Check out the Pro5 and JP8 demo's on YouTube to see what I mean.
