Everything about him is adorable, his voice, his facial mannerisms, what he says, his eyes, hair, his aura he really was gorgeous,I have never seen another man in my life like him.
This is the best interview with Benjamin. He gets to speak, not be interrupted by certain people. His quiet voice, his facial expressions, especially his mouth. Wow. His eyes, so amazingly gorgeous. He was truly a cutie, with such a sweet, down to earth personality. Beautiful Benjamin, you are missed, and so very loved. 💞💞
certain people named Ric? Even Greg and Elliot would cringe when Ric would interrupt Ben during interviews. Of course Ric, who I am a huge fan of, was jealous of Ben and rightly so.
I think it was Ric's controlling ways that led to Bens downward spiral. Ben must have been so upset & angry in the end, losing DGP on top of losing his best friend, the band etc. Then the final tragedy of a terrible illness that led to his death. It shouldn't have ended this way for such a beautiful soul....😢
Ben Orr is truly a beautiful man. Absolutely gorgeous!!! Sorry but for me he was the Cars, the voice, great looks, his stage presence. So unfortunate he left us so early, way too early. Love you Benjamin. Hope you are resting in peace😢
We all miss you, Ben! Powerful lead singer/front man, and one hell'uva bass player! And a modest, handsome man. I miss the Cars; and I miss those days.
He sounds like a really positive kinda guy that always smiles and never a grump or defensive always keeps his cool and has a likable vibe about himself. It be hard not to want to talk with him.
Benjamin Orr left us way too soon. I love his song “drive” and remember watching it when I was young on mtv. He was so talented and a very down to earth person. It’s so sad he suffered and died young. It reminds me of my mom that died at age 51 of leukemia after a bone marrow transplant. She died in 2002 a couple years after him. I remember people saying she was so young to die but I thought she was old at 51 because I was 26 years old. Now I’m 48 and I’m the same age my mom was when she got sick. Time flies so fast.
Thanks for sharing,I remember this on mtv. After all these years,wow, he was a legend in his own time. He was absolutely the real deal, just trying to make music. No big ego,great voice,and killer bass lines. Rest easy Ben
I was born in June of 90. So I didn’t get to experience the Cars in their heyday. But they are the first band I ever remember hearing. I wish I could have been around when they were huge. I’m such a massive Cars fan. My brother is 11 years older than I am. His favorite bands were the Cars and Aerosmith. I remember stealing his tapes to listen to their music when I was about 3. I was always a big Ocasek fan really until recently. I absolutely love Ben now
1986 I would’ve been 11. Unfortunately I don’t remember this interview. But everyone get his album The Lace. It is really good. I love listening to the CD version in my car.❤❤
I loved this guy, especially because he was so shy and charismatic in a kind of cute way. With all the comments on here being offended about him asking if Benjamin's co-writer was "in the kitchen", I'm wondering if any of them have actually watched the video for 'Stay the Night'. There is a woman IN THE KITCHEN. He's obviously asking if that is the girlfriend/co-writer. Yeah, it's a cheeky way to ask the question, but interviews back in those days were a lot more easy-going and they got away with things that seem inappopriate these days. He's not asking it as if women belong in the kitchen, as some offended people seem to have assumed. If you watched the film clip, you'd get it.
💜Benjamin rest in peace. Wonderfully talented and humble musician that left this earth way too soon. 💜 never cared for Mark Goodman always seemed a bit snarky to me. Thanks so much for posting!😎
Que belleza de hombre que sencillez tímido humilde ,realmente ben era una persona hermoso por dentro y por fuera ,auténtico de esas personas que ya no quedan y su timidez lo hace aún más hermoso
Ben always looks so uncomfortable doing interviews. I know there’s not that many so maybe there’s some truth behind it. He seemed to be a very private person. I wish there was more. I will always love this man and his music, such a beautiful voice an talented musician. They broke the mold , one dam sexy handsome man.❤️❤️❤️
I believe he had a huge amount of anxiety when giving interviews, It must've been so bad that he had a tough time listening to the questions and an even tougher time giving an answer. He was the real deal not a complete narcissist like Ric Ocasek.
A PS to my post. Ben looks so happy and so in love. It was a very good time in his life. The man has no idea what betrayal and devastation is coming down-the-line. So sad.
@@April-pw5ub Ric treated Ben pretty badly - I think he was jealous - I love Ric's talent but lets face it Ben had the talent and the looks and the personality
I've loved the card since I was at least 7 or 8 years old and I've been listening to them alot and looking into every band member and it just broke my heart to find out he passed away when I was only 3.
OMG so freaking adorable. He was obviously a gentle soul even though he was a rock star he was just a regular guy. It was great that he answered the questions honestly and straightforward, instead of pretending that he liked some of what occurred with the making of The Lace. Some of the comments pertain to Mark asking about if the woman was" in the kitchen". That wasn't so bad to me. What was terrible is that right after Ben told Mark he was not good with lyrics, Mark asks him if he thinks he's a prolific songwriter?. Did you see the look on Ben's face it was like, uh I just told you I'm not good at lyrics hellooo!! To me that's way worse than whether or not the woman's in the kitchen which I assume meant were he and Diane married.
His dad said he loved being a rock star - not in a "look at me - aren't I cool-'m a rock star" sort of way. More like "I can't believe I get to be a rock star" .
Could've been a movie star if he wanted. In this video, he'd have been perfect as Luke's long lost brother in Star Wars (original only, of course) pre-Empire, pre-Hamil accident.
Music and music people were so cool listen Mark Goodman I miss you the hell out of you Benjamin or the cars I’m speechless I would give anything to have you all back and I will take all this very seriously not that I didn’t when I was a child that I was very young I was eight years old when this aired I love you guys you guys were something that I think about all the time to this day I would give anything to go back to the 1980s I will give anything.
Thank you for posting again Donna, I have always loved this - Ben is so deliciously exquisite here (as ever), I will continue to watch it over and over again. From Patricia H. not William H.
Everything about him is adorable, his voice, his facial mannerisms, what he says, his eyes, hair, his aura he really was gorgeous,I have never seen another man in my life like him.
I agree with you....he seemed likely an incredibly special person & quite talented too!
Benjamin Orr, Rutger Hauer and Don Johnson my 3 fav men!
I agree wholeheartedly, very mesmerizing :)
Beautiful man
Gregg Nelson i thought he's American bc he sounds American here. So is he British?

He seems like a gentle soul. Highly underrated.
👌👌🇸🇮
Sadly it would be seemed. :(
Rest in Peace Mr. Orr
Honouring your memory on this day...

What a sweetheart. The world is darker without people like Ben 💔
We all miss you, Ben! Powerful lead singer/front man, and one hell'uva bass player! And a modest, handsome man. I miss the Cars; and I miss those days.
Well said I concur 💯 %
They were the days 😢
The most handsome singer in universe Ben orr
He's buried here in Thompson Ohio. He lived 10 minutes from me here in Cleveland. What a great guy. Gone to soon. Rip Benjamin.
This is one down to earth, cool guy. May he RIP
Considering his tremendous talent he deserved SO MUCH MORE. Extremely humble... perhaps far too humble.
Such a lovely, respectful, and humble person he was. 🖤
I’m still so in love with Ben Orr and he’s been gone for over 2 decades. It still doesn’t seem real. Thank you for sharing this!
🌹
SO EASY, ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO FALL IN LOVE WITH SUCH A SWEETHEART AND GORGEOUS MAN LIKE BEN. GREETINGS FROM SPAIN!
He sounds like a really positive kinda guy that always smiles and never a grump or defensive always keeps his cool and has a likable vibe about himself. It be hard not to want to talk with him.

That smile melts me
The most sexy beautiful smile ever, he’s such a “ babydoll”
... those eyes!
I second that, third that, fourth that, and fifth that. I get mesmerized when he sings, those lips exude sex with every word. Lol
@@frozenfireuap I miss this guy a great deal. Thankful to all the people keeping his memory alive 🌹
Have you ever seen a more beautiful mouth?!!!
That smile and those eyes!
He was just lovely.... one of the rare sweet guys.
Such a wonderful man, taken too soon. At least we have these precious videos and his great songs. RIP Benjamin ❤️
Such a handsome man with such a Beautiful voice ♥️ he died WAY to young 😢 miss you Ben and miss the Cars ♥️♥️ my favorite Band ever !!
Absolutely handsome and humble. Gone too soon. Sorely missed. RIP Ben Orr.
I remember this like it was yesterday. Seriously one of the greatest bands ever
Benjamin Orr was great. He looks in this video happy and healthy. I llke the music: "Drive".
What an angel!!! His smile and his voice were the most cute things I saw and heard today
Benjamin Orr Eterno ❤
Pure class how can such a good looking man be so humble!
He was the man with the Heart of Gold. We still miss you Benjamin and always will. You are a legend. ✝️❤️🎸⭐🙏🇺🇲
He's confident and he seems to have a clear conscience. Those qualities cause him to be humble, IMO.
He was one fine looking man ...rip Ben..thanks for all the great music you left us ...
He was very humble and gracious as well as talented. Such a great person and gifted musician and vocalist. We will always remember and miss you ben.
Such a talent, sweet, and gorgeous as well. The whole package. Gone too young.😔
Thanks for sharing,I remember this on mtv. After all these years,wow, he was a legend in his own time. He was absolutely the real deal, just trying to make music. No big ego,great voice,and killer bass lines. Rest easy Ben
Very soft spoken person. Comes across as very kind and humble.

Stay The Night is by far one of the best songs of the 80’s.
1986 I would’ve been 11. Unfortunately I don’t remember this interview. But everyone get his album The Lace. It is really good. I love listening to the CD version in my car.❤❤

Mark was a total dick !! What a swine ! Orr rocked !
What a Wally he was!
Agreed about Goodman, really trying to put Ben on the spot regarding his decision to leave the group to make his own album.
@@MixedNutsMs he didn’t leave the group. Just did his own thing.
@@desertrose1226Please explain what a wally is. 🙂
He is so gorgeous….love love love him…Rip ♥️
Omg! What a beautiful Man🥰🥰way so talented and talking nice about his back then Women😎😎
A beautiful soul gone way too soon 🥺💕
Beautiful Ben 🥰
Thank you for posting this video! I hate that Benjamin Orr is no longer with us! He left some awesome songs for us to enjoy!
Que belleza de hombre que sencillez tímido humilde ,realmente ben era una persona hermoso por dentro y por fuera ,auténtico de esas personas que ya no quedan y su timidez lo hace aún más hermoso
Exacto ..
The beauty in his discomfort
All the little facial ticks and expressions
🙏🕉️
He really didn't enjoy being interviewed.
This is great...not many interviews of Ben exist here. Thanks for posting. Such an awesome guy and so sweet and humble.
He’s so cute look at his smile
He had a sweet baby face that could look handsome and rugged too.
Oh, he was simply sexy and adorable!
Thank you much! This is my favorite interview of Ben, I watch often. As long as I live I will never get over his absolute beauty.
👏👏👌👌🇸🇮🇸🇮
I have this record found it in my local record store vinyl was in great shape whole album was great! Massive cars fan
Such a nice guy
This is such a sweet soul, beautiful charisma.
Ben always looks so uncomfortable doing interviews. I know there’s not that many so maybe there’s some truth behind it. He seemed to be a very private person. I wish there was more. I will always love this man and his music, such a beautiful voice an talented musician. They broke the mold , one dam sexy handsome man.❤️❤️❤️
just almost painfully shy and so mild mannered. i have so much respect for his yearning for privacy.
He has the most beautiful smile.
I believe he had a huge amount of anxiety when giving interviews, It must've been so bad that he had a tough time listening to the questions and an even tougher time giving an answer. He was the real deal not a complete narcissist like Ric Ocasek.
I AM ABSOLUTELY AGREE WITH YOU IN EVERYTHING YOU SAID. Greetings from Spain.
Yes, I was wondering if he had a brother as handsome as he was? Seems crazy that if he were alive he'd be like 73 years old!
A PS to my post. Ben looks so happy and so in love. It was a very good time in his life. The man has no idea what betrayal and devastation is coming down-the-line. So sad.
Did Diane betray Benjamin?! How?!
None of do.
@@desertrose1226 I think Ric did when he ended the Cars , he was a control freak . It’s sad to watch this knowing what will come.
Очень жалко 😢.
@@April-pw5ub Ric treated Ben pretty badly - I think he was jealous - I love Ric's talent but lets face it Ben had the talent and the looks and the personality
He is truly missed.. I love you Benjamin Orr….. ❤️❤️
Ojalá pueda algún día llevarle una flor a este Gran Artista, saludos desde Argentina y que Dios esté con el adónde esté.
🖐🖐👏👏👌👌🇸🇮🇸🇮
Que gran gusto por escucharlo, uno de los grandes Ben orr
OH ..es uno de mis deseos, es ir y llevarle flores .
Ben was awesome.. great singer bass player... ric might have wrote the lyrics but Ben was the cars
It would have been an Awesome experience to have his next album out & tour.....such a loss all the way around....NOBODY like Benjamin's talent! ❤
👌👌🇸🇮🇸🇮

@dfasht sure it is.... it's half of it anyway . lol 😆
maryuline No they never did marry but were they did have a long term relationship.
His dad said he loved being a rock star - not in a "look at me - aren't I cool-'m a rock star" sort of way. More like "I can't believe I get to be a rock star" .
Homem mais lindo saudades de vc orr
Que fue hermoso Benjamin 😍 todavía escucho su música 🎶 💕 ❤🍀🙏🇨🇱🇨🇱
Love the Cars, Ric songs, especially Benjamin songs of the Cars are my favorite.....RIP bro....🙏🙏
Could've been a movie star if he wanted. In this video, he'd have been perfect as Luke's long lost brother in Star Wars (original only, of course) pre-Empire, pre-Hamil accident.
I miss the 80s and i miss sanity....
Beautiful Benjamin......jerky Mark!!
Music and music people were so cool listen Mark Goodman I miss you the hell out of you Benjamin or the cars I’m speechless I would give anything to have you all back and I will take all this very seriously not that I didn’t when I was a child that I was very young I was eight years old when this aired I love you guys you guys were something that I think about all the time to this day I would give anything to go back to the 1980s I will give anything.

Que era lindo
Piękna czysta mądra spokojna dusza..bardzo delikatna stąd krótkie zycie😢
All the girls in the comments section. I guess Ben was pretty popular with the ladies.
That's putting it mildly.
That's the understatement of all time in the history of mankind. 😀
He still is, too. Guy had class.
Esse homem não era real. Simplesmente, perfeito! Realmente, Deus tem seus preferidos...
Without him....He made the band!
What a sweet man ❤
He is messed. Rest in peace
She was so talented she after they broke up she was never heard from again.
Lindo charmoso se estivesse entre nos estaria um coroa bem gato ❤❤❤
