How can anyone sleep when discussing this song? Don't you know it's about a time that Phil Collins came upon the guy who raped his wife drowning and just let him drown?
(If anybody points out what song is actually associated with this drek, I will find them and ridicule them).
You can't imagine how relieved I am.
I wouldn't hop on any stand-up tours anytime soon.
I will accept the flaw of using the term "introduced" but maintain that the song premiered to American audiences as a standalone piece of "music" (we are talking about Phil Collins) on that episode of Miami Vice.
Oh, like your pun has a leg to stand on!
Perhaps. But for me, not even Brian Stokes Mitchell can take that song away from Philip Michael Thomas.
More like… Immobley!
Yes. Yes it was. Thank you for making me feel less alone.
Do you think it's significant that the music played during the Price scene was from The Parallax View?
That's some great googling and all, but if someone did not own No Jacket Required, and did not listen to UK radio (nor shop in the 45 bin at UK record stores), when would they have heard this song first?
So, folks not listening to UK radio and not owning the album (actually I did- on cassette) would have heard that song before the Miami Vice episode when?
Well yeah, on the album. But not as a single or anything until the episode in question.
Two geekish musical notes:
1) The Phil Collins song was first introduced during a love scene featuring Tubbs and a lady he met while out of town on Miami Vice.
2) The vaguely sinister music playing when Price appeals to government slobs for bailout $ is from the mother of all conspiracy movies: The Parallax View
Yeah but minus 50 pts for including James Taylor.
Yeah, except Paul Simon ripped 'em off and tried not to pay them for their work on it.
Go see 'em live.
Also worth noting that when Steve Van Zandt was organizing a boycott of Sun City, the South African resort where Afrikaaners went to "escape the natives," Paul Simon insisted on playing there anyway. When SVZ confronted him about it, Simon said something like, "Yeah well my friend Hank Kissinger says that Mandela's…
Save an inherent bias toward the deaf.
Well then Jon Spencer would survive.
