Songs about crime, even positively, isn’t new. It’s more prevalent now thanks to gansta rap, but you can find songs celebrating it (intentionally or otherwise) long before rap itself became popular. We’ve covered Mack The Knife, a bouncy tune about a serial killer, in the very first installment of this series.
Well, there’s another one that I’ve been hearing lately since the radio station I’m currently waking up to (I wake up to a war with static lately to listen to music) a station that plays 70s and 80s music. In 1976s Take The Money And Run, the Steve Miller Band brings us the tale of two crazy kids who decide they want to be the stoner version of Bonnie and Clyde, and steal stuff. Musically it’s quite enjoyable, with a good beat and the singer is really good. That doesn’t stop me from having a problem with the tale being told, because of one major factor. Yes, it’s another example of one sentence getting me mad.

There’s also a link below discussing a new movie reboot. Will Jackson show up there like Roundtree did for his movie?
