DEF: Chaka Khan “Own the Night”

During its television run from 1984 to 1990, the producers of Miami Vice released a series of soundtrack albums based on music used in the show. Chicago-born singer Chaka Khan contributed a song to the first album, and that song — “Own the Night” — was released a single that appeared on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart. On this date in 1986, “Own the Night” climbed to a peak position of number 57. Today, “Own the Night” by Chaka Khan is the Daily Eighties Flashback.
