Baywatch and Knight Rider were my childhood. David is a legend

[@CurtSeavers]

I agree! I love Knighrider, and I love the awesome brainlessness of Baywatch. Hasselhoff is awesome. He's made so many people happy :)

This man is an absolute legend in my world, I'm from Denmark and I'll never forget when our German neighbors broke the wall in Berlin, and Mr Hasselhoff was there. I was 10 years old on the 9th of November 1989, but I'll never forget, peace Greetings from Denmark

[@kerstinwerner5198]

Da jeg var 12, gik jeg til en af ​​hans koncerter i Münsterlandhalle. Var så stolt, at han gav mig hånden, efter at jeg kæmpede mig frem. Jeg er glad for, at han overlevede sine lavpunkter og nu vil vide det igen! Det kan jeg lide!

What could be better than seeing Michael Knight after all these years, imaging as he goes home from work and sings a lovely song. Priceless!

[@feriboros9320]

In the early 90's there was no weekend without Michael Knight or Mitch Buchannon in the TV. Great voice.

[@retrocoolness9935]

Gosh, this guy sings better than a lot of popular mainstream young artists.

[@Paul-ke2hg]

If you can listen through hasselhofs autotune.

[@dandare2696]

Its old school!!! ))))

[@Paul-ke2hg]

@Wayfaerer there's autotune done either so good you never hear it , or so badly where you hear it clearly like here. And then theres using for aesthetic reasons like in a lot of hip hop now, but yeah almost everyone uses it one way or another

[@DJJumpdancer]

@Wayfaerer ariana grande doesn't use it she sounds perfect. Autotune needs Ariana :D

[@rickamacho7]

I agree.

He sees the sign and the hollow sky He sees the stars come out tonight He sees the city's ripped backsides He sees the winding ocean drive And everything was made for you and me All of it was made for you and me 'Cause it just belongs to you and me So let's take a ride and see what's mine Singing la, la, la, la, la-la-la-la... Oh the passenger He rides and he rides He sees things from under glass He looks through his window side He sees the things he knows are his He sees the bright and hollow sky He sees the city asleep at night He sees the stars are out tonight And all of it is yours and mine And all of it is yours and mine Let's ride and ride and ride and ride Oh, singing la, la, la, la, la-la-la-la...
