Somehow, U2 Just Made Me Think Of Miami Vice


I just listened to the new U2 song, "I'll Go Crazy" remixed by Dirty South, and it is as if my brain was instantly linked to Michael Mann's, circa 1984, and I got this vision in my head and had to write it down. What sucks is, after reading what I wrote, I really wanna be able to see that episode, except there isn't one, I made it up. Here's my review of this song. Be sure to download the song first and listen while reading.

1984. Miami. Montage. Midnight. Crocket is chasing down a guy in a bad suit wearing sandals. Cut to Crocket's Ex-Wife at her home, sitting at the dinner table over an extra uneaten plate of food. Cut to Tubbs - trusty sawed off shotgun in hand, trying to find a way to cut off the criminals from another side. Cut back to Crocket's Ex-Wife sitting alone on the couch in near darkness, the only light in the room shining from a streetlight outside, onto her face. Cut to Crocket - exchanging gunfire with the criminal. Crocket goes down in the crossfire. Cut to Crocket's 2 kids soundly sleeping in their beds. Cut to Tubbs - Tubbs feels something is wrong, doubles back to find his friend and partner too injured to keep going. Cut to close up of Crocket's Ex-Wife - One tear falling from her face, the idea of a normal life fades. Cut to Tubbs rushing Crocket to the hospital in the Testarossa. The assailants disappear into the night.

Oh wait, that's like, every episode.
