great song, but you're right, I can't hear it without picturing the Warriors on the beach. its how I first heard this song when I was about 12. I had it on VHS. I used to play the credits all the time just to hear this song. when a buddy of mine introduced me to Limewire about 8 years ago, he let me make a fantasy CD. In The City was one of the first songs I thought of.

I agree. The song actually best fit "The Warriors", primarily because it not only reflected on the events in the film, but it basically fits the Warriors every day lives prior to, during and after the events of the film. It's still a great song to listen to.

@LilShabaz The warriors made this song what it is
