"Someone to Watch Over Me" is a song performed by Saundra Santiago, recorded exclusively for Miami Vice in 1987. It is a cover of the song of the same name by Gertrude Lawrence, originally recorded for the 1926 musical Oh, Kay! It appeared in the episode "Heroes of the Revolution".
Notes[]
- "Someone to Watch Over Me" is the final song of Miami Vice's third season.
- Saundra Santiago displays her musical talents in this episode. She is the fourth member of the main Miami Vice cast to sing on the show, performing both "Stormy Weather" and this track.
- The song was written in 1926 by George & Ira Gershwin for the musical Oh, Kay!. It has been covered by such artists as Frank Sinatra, Ray Conniff, and Willie Nelson.
- Other than its use in the show, the Saundra Santiago version has not appeared on any album or as a single, making it one of the few Miami Vice songs never to see a release in any form outside of the episode in which it was used.
- "Someone to Watch Over Me" was also featured in Edward James Olmos' series Battlestar Galactica (albeit obliquely, serving as an episode title) and in Dean Stockwell's series Quantum Leap.
