I was fortunate enough to see The Cars in concert several times and this video brings back happy times / memories. They were not a flashy band but they were a band that when they played their songs they did sound like the studio versions. This song was made for Ben's voice. I can't picture anybody else singing this classic and one of the best songs ever recorded.

[@savannahrymer9721]

The Cars were geniuses obviously. I haven't been able to find music that compares. RIP Ben!

Just 25 years ago I was enroute to St Louis from Las Vegas, somewhere over north Texas or sowest Kansas, had a walkman on, with FM a station would last about 4-5 minutes. This came on and played entirely before the station was lost. Now, old, retired, melancholic, I will never forget this piece and will always feel very sad hearing it. You are a genuine bud, benny11letters, and I thank you.

So I came across this readers digest article from when he died and liberty devito drummer for billy Joel who had been playing with Orr in his final band Big People had said at his final show in Alaska a week before his death he quietly said backstage to "skip Drive" I can't do it" and Divito said "all of us looked at each other and knew this was it" sad.
