The sun goes down The night rolls in You can feel it starting all over again The moon comes up And the music calls You're getting tired of staring at the same four walls You're out of your room And down on the street You can feel the crowds through the midnight heat The traffic roars And the sirens scream You look at the faces, its just like a dream You don't know where you're going You don't care where you've been 'Cause you belong to the city You belong to the night living in a river of darkness, beneath the neon light You belong to the city you belong to the street Its in your moves, its in your blood You're a man of the street When you said goodbye You were on the run Tryin' to get away from the things you'd done Now you're back again And you're feeling strange So much has happened, but nothing has changed You still don't know where you're going Nobody cares where you've been 'Cause you belong to the city... You can see it You can face it You can feel it You can taste it You can hear it You're getting near it You're gonna make it 'Cause you can take it. You belong to the city (etc. to fade out)

Glenn Lewis Frey (born November 6, 1948 in Detroit, Michigan[1]) is an American musician, singer, songwriter, and actor, best known as one of the founding members of rock band Eagles. Growing up in Huntington Woods, Michigan, Frey became part of the mid-1960s Detroit rock scene. One of his earliest bands was called the Mushrooms and included fellow Royal Oak Dondero High School students Doug Roberts (later replaced by Lenny Mintz) on drums and Doug Gunsch and Bill Barnes on guitar. Two early recordings of The Mushrooms can be found on http://www.eaglesfans.com. His first professional recording experience was performing acoustic guitar and background vocals on Bob Seger's Ramblin' Gamblin' Man in 1968. Frey and Seger would remain friends and occasional songwriting partners in later years. Frey then moved to Los Angeles. His first recording as a musical writer was while fronting Longbranch Pennywhistle, a duo with J.D. Souther, in 1969. Frey also met Jackson Browne there, with whom he would also write songs. After a stint in 1971 backing Linda Ronstadt, Frey helped form the Eagles, playing guitar and keyboards. Frey wrote or co-wrote (often with Don Henley) many of the group's songs, and sang lead vocal on a number of Eagles hits such as "Take It Easy", "Peaceful Easy Feeling", "Already Gone", "Tequila Sunrise", "Lyin' Eyes", "New Kid in Town", and "Heartache Tonight". Since the Eagles reunion in 1994, he has participated in various Eagles recording projects, and reunion tours, each one with the tongue-in-cheek title of the Farewell Tour. After the Eagles disbanded, Frey found solo success in the 1980s, especially with two #2 hits: the soundtrack songs "The Heat Is On" (from Beverly Hills Cop) and "You Belong to the City" (from the television series Miami Vice, the soundtrack to which stayed on top of the U.S. album charts for 11 weeks in 1985). ÐFrey also contributed the song "Flip City" to the Ghostbusters II soundtrack, and "Part of Me, Part of You" to the soundtrack for Thelma and Louise. In the late 1990s, Frey founded a record company with attorney Peter Lopez called Mission Records. As an actor on television, Frey guest starred on Miami Vice (in an episode inspired by his hit song "Smuggler's Blues"), had a recurring role on Wiseguy, and had a starring role on the short-lived South of Sunset (which was canceled after one episode). In the late-1990s, he guest starred on Nash Bridges, and in 2002, he appeared on HBO's Arli$$. In movies, Frey appeared -- along with Tom Cruise, Cuba Gooding, Jr. and Jay Mohr -- in Cameron Crowe's third film, Jerry Maguire. Frey plays the frugal owner of the Arizona Cardinals football team who, in the film's climax, finally agrees to pay Gooding's character, wide receiver Rod Tidwell a large professional contract. Frey also appeared in a commercial for Pepsi with Miami Vice star Don Johnson. Cameron Crowe, who interviewed the Eagles on the road when he was a teenager, has stated that the character of Russell, the lead guitar player from his film Almost Famous, was based primarily upon Glenn Frey. The instruction Russell gives to Crowe's autobiographical young critic William Miller, to "Just make us look cool," was apparently a direct quote from Frey. In the television show Corner Gas, in the episode "Hook, Line and Sinker", the characters are putting up a sign outside the gas station. Brent says he was careful in choosing letters that could not be rearranged to spell something crazy. Wanda asks what it is. Brent says "Come for the oil change, stay for the grease." and soon after, Wanda says "Choose Glenn Frey for a menage ˆ trois." There is a Saturday Night Live short, called The H(eat) Is O(n), by Adam McKay, in which a character named Wes, played by Ben Stiller has a one night stand with Glenn Frey (played by Will Ferrell). Over the course of the evening, Glenn reveals his penchant for aggressive sex play, leaving Wes very upset.
