Benjamin Orr - This Time Around

[@dannilaser16]

This is a song that just stays stuck in my head all day long when i hear it. Hauntingly beautiful.

[@analiajimenalopez4666]

Thats voice ...Rip Benjamin ❤

[@JackSmith-JackTheWhiskyGuy]

Benjamin Orr is a legend. That voice surrounded by 4 studio musicians, The Cars were one of the best bands ever.

[@laurelwood791]

22+ years after you've gone....we're all still here Ben. The crowds may have dwindled, but the loyalty of millions has not. We're still here, Ben. Still listening, watching, and in awe of your talents, and THAT voice. We love you Ben Orr. If indeed I can just meet you and say thank you to you on the other side.....what a day that will be.

[@michaelvalenti4326]

Well stated and you are 100 percent right regarding Benjamin Orr, his music and legacy and being part of the group The Cars. I will be 48 in December 2023( current year) and have listened to " The Cars", Benjamin Orr as a individual since early 1980's( Benjamin Orr album "Lace" came out in 1986) and continue to listen Benjamin Orr,and " The Cars" in 2023. Unfortunately, a great musician and human being taken much too early in life, deceased at age 53! Benjamin Orr's music and legacy will live on ( future) for sure. We have the gift of his music! Benjamin Orr's music is relaxing ( mental relaxation) and soothing to the mind when we incur difficult days/ times in our life. We will have good days along with difficult days in life!

It cost $20 plus postage. It's great. Songs are clear as a bell, his voice is beautiful, all the songs are there in one place. You may have to do some searching online to find it but it is worth it.

*When one hears just even BENJAMIN ORR'S singing voice -- one can totally understand and/or can picture what a Wonderful Person BENJAMIN was ...its just so so very very sad to me (and I'm sure to a great very many people and his fans when they heard of his passing...) that such a lovely Human Being like BENJAMIN had to be 'taken away' so soon like that. I like to suppose that some of us 'put' here on earth are just meant to become Angels in Heaven just a little sooner than others -- that's the only way I can make sense of it all to tell ya the truth...I just feel I must believe that...if not -- I'd be so utterly forever heartbroken & unable to function at all for the times I've had to 'lose' someone I had loved so purely with all my heart...* *~May God Rest Your Soul In Peace Forever More Dear Benjamin Orr~*
