They were thrown out of a dive bar in my home town (near Boston) for playing originals when they were only supposed to be playing covers. Six months later they were the biggest band in the country.
what bar?
The Black Sheep
The Good Ole Days
Bet the bar sure regretted that decision.
@hamace The Channel, The Rat -- Boston Tea Party -- cool places
43 years later, and they still sound like the future.
Damn what a cool comment.
💯
Truth
Yea, you’re right the future, and the past.
I agree! Could it be that leisure suits will be making a comeback as well?
"Since your gone" RIP... still listening 2020. Anyone else ?
Futureleader5000 Ric and Benjamin are gone,but their music lives on...🎸🎶✨🚙🚕🚗
right here great tunes good times
Yap,still listening the cars songs.my favorite are.drive ,my bestfriend girl &you might think
Sure yes indeed most unique band ever life long Cars fan!!
Here here!
The Cars were one of the most unique and original bands of the rock and roll era. No other group sounded like them. There was no confusing them with another band. They proved that nerds can be cool.
Cheap Trick did the cool nerd thing way before The Cars. The drummer, Bun E. Carlos and guitarist Rick Neilsen were the coolest nerds in rock music in the mid 70s! I liked Cheap Trick's gimmick. You had the two good looking ladies men, Robin Zander and Tom Petersson, and the two aforementioned nerdy guys. 👍✌️🤟🤘
@@iluvdaguitar The drummer once said in an interview that he never looked good with longer hair and well his nerdy look was natural - not intended to be a gimmick '
@@iluvdaguitar the Cars were way bigger nerds than the Cheap Trick.
in 1981 i drove my car 4 hours through the Az. desert to attend the Az. state fair and i paid 3 dollars just to watch Cheap Trick perform a giant concert.
the guitar guy actually busted out a 5 neck guitar and i'll be damned if he didn't play every single neck of that guitar. *effin 3 dollars!*
@@jamesha175 I've seen him play that 5 neck, not in person, but on DVD. Did he do his solo with 7 different guitars strapped around him at the AZ show? I saw them on the Dream Police tour and he soloed with 7 guitars. He would play one, them take it off, swing the next guitar around from behind, and start wailing on that one, etc etc. Cool AF!!👍🤘
@@iluvdaguitar effin Rick Nielson is the MF guitar daddy! no his 7 guitars at once trick was later than the concert that i saw in '81.
The Cars ... one of the reasons the 1980s was so great.
They made new wave palatable to the masses in late 70s . debut 78 Cars album and 79 candy o is/was their best.
@Bengt Handlebars The Police were called 'White Reggae'.
70s, too.
60s ewas way better? I ama Woodstock 69 survior? Ever since came back my spelling sucks|
They definitely played a big role in shaping 80s culture. I first heard them in the late 70s. I had never heard the New Wave sound before and they sounded like they belonged in the next decade, not the 70s. Very much ahead of their time when they first started
Rest easy, Ric Ocasek. Thanks for all of the good tunes.
Couldn't said it any better
😎🤘😥
@@jwalzer I second that!!!!!
Ben Orr too, what a damn shame
he was so kool
Benjamin Orr is the coolest rock musician and singer ever. So talented, with great stage presence, confidence, and good looking. He had it all, what a shame he left us so soon.
absolutely.....a damn shame.....what a loss.
Yes, Ben’s passing is a terrible loss. 🕯️💞
I’m been talked about on RUclips due to his son; and how he deserved to be on stage to accept his dad’s award, just like Cliff Burton from Metallica and Chris Wood from Traffic. They got to go onstage and exclaim how touched they are by their loved ones being so honored. Ben’s son never got that opportunity.
Probably one of the best bands of its time. Unique and very talented.
Yes indeed👍
Agree!
Agreed! They had such a unique sound!
Rush was better.
@@elinoreberkley1643 I love Rush too!
Who doesn’t still love the Cars! 2019!!!
How can I not love the cars!!!! Anywhere I hear their songs start I scream out “” THE. CARRRRZ!!!!
I’m loving The Cars in 2020!
Я люблю.

One of their most haunting melodies...RIP BEN AND RICK

Funny how noone mentions this was their Bob Dylan "tribute"...
the guitar solo is so perfect
@@kenlieck7756 It's funny how no one knows what noone means.
Man, never thought of this, but it is a haunting melody…bittersweet
Elliot Easton, perfect solo every song.
One of America's greatest ever rock bands!
Oh, how original. *Literally* every single music video on RUclips has at least one comment declaring the band in the video "the greatest band ever". It's literally MEANINGLESS to say that since it is on every single video in RUclips.

@@moodylicious - I hear what you're saying but I don't blame Trump for the incivility of some people in the U.S.! This has been going on well before Trump ever thought about running for POTUS, and incivility will occur long after Trump is gone! Personally I like what Trump is doing! Like him or not, he's not the pussy that Obama was, nor do he take shit from other world leaders!! The whiny cowards are Democraps like Pelosi, AOC, Schumer, Omar, Tlaib, Wsrren, Waters, etc!!! I solely blame them for this level of incivility and hatred in the U.S.
RIP Ric, thanks for the music of my late teens. High school tunes.
Same here ...great era on the JVC Boom Box ....
and ben orr!!
@@debrawillard3034- Yes. Probably Benjamin sang lead on more music by The Cars of David Wombold’s high school years than he thought. Looks like he commented when Ric died, so he didn’t think of Benjamin. Thanks, Benjamin, Ric, and RIP.
I love how tall and skinny he was haha like Joey Ramone
Larry David introducing The Cars wow! The Cars were my go to band in the late 70's and early 80's. Elliot Easton was easily the most underrated guitarist of the era.
Mike Campbell
What is a "larry david"?

This song has so much meaning to me. These guys were one of our favorite bands back in the 80's My wife of 41 yrs past away last year and this brings on the tears. Della Lou, I will always and forever love you.
oh . . i am sorry . .
@@NaughtyVampireGod thank you

So sorry for your loss
My heartfelt condolences on your loss of your beloved wife❤️👏
These guys don't get the credit they deserve..one of the best groups ever!
But they did get inducted deservingly
They get credit from this Seventies and Eighties child - and many others like me. Great Pop light Rock band like Supertramp, but then there is The FIxx who came a long just a bit later and .... Whoa! "American Express - Don't leave Home without it! says Karl Malden - Sandy
@@jayzeidel4814 the rock and roll hall of Fame is a joke
cruiserweight 190. Well DAMN MAN! what meets YOUR! CRITERIA! 4 they don't get the credit they deserve. Their albums/cd's sold in the millions, constant FM & TV play. Their live shows SOLD OUT! All band members were exceptional at their craft & the 🚗 CARS r in the R n R HOF! DOING!!!!
@@petegobeckli1386 Well....they're kinda forgotten and songs were kinda lightweight (simple chords and melodies, sometimes obtuse lyrics)...so when are they held up? (besides RRHOF). Not too often. I hate saying that, I'm a fan and loads of their songs on my spotify play list but...who talks about them now, who covers them, who samples them, who sounds like them? no one I can think of..like I said, great little tunes and I do like 'em plenty.
The Cars rule. They were one of the great 80's bands and their music is still awesome and unique.
Everything they wrote was platinum, if you ask me.
And late 70s.
“Since you’re gone I miss the big sensation, since you’re gone I took the big vacation.” One of the best lyrics ever written.
Oh, I know....so glad you're gone! Tried a few and so glad you're gone.
Went to the pound and found a dog, my friend, never be gone!
Sadly, he took the big vacation in 2019.
"Since you're gone, the moonlight ain't so great"
That seems a big stretch to me. I always thought the lyrics were a bit wry and somewhat tongue in cheek.
We were so fortunate to grow up as teens listening to this as new music!
I miss you song, since you gone. I can't help it, since you gone.
When a band defines a period in time, they are bigger than the music hall of shame.
Rob, Great comment, I totally agree
Good thing they just got inducted ; )
Robo Cat / who cares ?? Maryland is a shithole...
Orr gave up a lot as a front man. He and Rik were a team.
well said! I was _there_ ...in 8th grade...when the debut album dropped...and us kids, we _knew_ ...this was _our_ generations new music...we all had older brothers n sisters, they got us into Zep and Badco and all the great music that came from the boomers...but The Cars...it was a new sound...yeah. It was a great era to be that age.... 🎸😎🎼
Phenomenal band. Rics amazing song writing, Ben's amazing vocals and bass, Elliott's guitar work, Greg's keyboards and other instruments and David's amazing drumming
The Cars. A great band. Late 1970's. I was a teenager. Still sound great!
Oh my gosh. I'm literally in tears I miss The Cars so much. I remember seeing this when I was 14 on Fridays. Still love it
O, to be in the audience and feel the reverb. Sigh.❤️
I second that! 🍻
stop saying literly fool
I'm not saying literly Im saying literally. Learn to spell before you type Einstein, Need lessons? I can literally teach you! (mic drop!)
Going to miss you Ric, Rest in peace.
Listening to this it’s amazing how well the Cars music has aged - definitely of the era, but still just as clever and distinctive as when the tunes first came out!
They just get better as time goes on.
Rick is now a serenading angel and the entire Heavenly Host is listening
The Cars were different from other bands with their energy and had so many hit songs, I bought every album they put out. If you got to live in the 50's through the 80's with all the classic movies & songs, YOU were blessed!
The Cars were such a huge part of my Rock & Roll upbringing,,, Rest in Peace Ric,,,,,we all love you.....
Benjamin, too. ❤
One well oiled machine. Always sounded great live. They took pride in their work.
Amen! R&R Hall Induction committee, are you LISTENING!?
This is why the R&R Hall of Fame is irrelevant, F 'em.
Agreed The RRHOF are shitlords for a number of reasons. In example by reading comments on other Cars' vids, I assume Cheap Trick made it into the RRHOF already. I saw Cheap Trick as an opening act for one of the very relevant large arena rock bands back in the 80s (Cheap Trick already had one of their semi-hits out). My friends and I and a lot of other people booed them lol. They sucked, were like a band "pretending" to be rock stars. Really, they were just kinda sad and goofy. Cheap Trick were very lucky they were getting booked as an opening act during the 80s era of huge arena rock, they rode that era's coattails to success. I saw everyone from The Police to ACDC in the 80s, Cheap Trick *sucked* and were posers - but they're in the RRHOF before The Cars *lmao*
Brian Spruill yep!
Consummate pros. Check out the tempo, almost dead on to the recording. So tight and organic. Flawless.
These boys always sounded better live ,than on the records.
Such a original,quirky sound on this track,and dont you just love the band in black,with ric the focal point with the loud suit.
A great look,and a great sound.
Huh? The sound on their records was incredible
How can something so old, be so cool and so listenable and classic survive so long among multiple generations? Genuis musicians so far, far, ahead if their time. Thank you God for creating these special humans.
1st concert I attended 1978 Oakland Colusium. Have been one of my favorites since then. (I'm 58)
This song kicks ass: Elliot Easton so underated on lwad guitar. Orr a strong bassist...
The guitar solo was inspired by Robert Fripp of King Crimson, who was big using his "Frippetronics" to play backward guitar loops.
Early 80's my friend Chis P. and I would cruise the beach in St. Augustine Fl. playing this song and all the others from that album in my 1972 Plymouth Duster. We knew we were bad asses and this music backed that up. Reality was, the music was bad ass and we were not.
When I hear this song and all the others, It just brings back great memories from that time.
That's a great memory.
The 2 most unique, distinct vocalists, imo!
Ric Ocasek especially was so far ahead of his time he could have been born in Area 51 twice...and The Cars as a band were way ahead of their time, that could be considered rather rare for an American band (no disrespect folks). Their debut album 'The Cars' is one of the greatest rock albums in the history of rock. Leighton (New Zealand)
No offense taken! You're right!
Blackscorpion1963 I'm one of the stupid ones who haven't listened to them until recently and thought they were an English band
Roxy Music was a clear influence
I easily put The Cars on my top five favorite list along with Led Zeppelin!!! 😎😎😎
Right on brother!
Rip Ric always love you, thanks for the music
The Cars are still awesome. Miss Rick and Ben.
I'm so heartbroken since Benjamin and Ric are gone💔💔
The Cars are literally the essence of cool
facts
First, the money man, now Ocasek. Such a sad realization that all of the great music acts of my youth are slowly fading into the sunset. It feels like pieces of my memories and youth fade with every loss. Rest in peace Ric. May his family find solace in the knowledge of how deeply he was loved by millions of Cars fans. We love you Ric, have a safe trip on your drive to heaven, say hello to Eddie and Ben when you get there.🚙
wow well put.
@@louiesalinas4720 Thank you.
Well said!
And now Ginger Baker.
Supergroup Cream drummer
Preceded by Jack Bruce bassist by 2 yrs.
RIP Gentlemen
Once I lost my dad anything seems possible. 🌹 rip Ben & ric
This song is hauntingly beautiful, and Elliot Easton was the bands secret weapon, a 4 yr Berklee (same school I attended) grad who truly can play guitar. R.I.P Ric and Ben, ty for giving us such great music. 👍
I was just a young freshman in HS 1978 and we went to our friends apartment who lived by himself ( no parents)
Got really stoned and he played the cars album...
Needless to say, I was blown away!!! Loved them since!
Thank you boy's for making the 1980's so so much better!!
Every time I come out here and view a video of these guys playing a live performance I can't believe just how incredibly fantastic of a band The Cars were... both live and in the studio... I was a fan back when Candy-O came out... that album hooked me many, many moons ago and I've liked them ever since... awesome songwriting, hooks and flawless musicianship... they had it all.. R.I.P. Ric and Benjamin... you are both sadly missed...
I Feel The Exact Same Way 👍👍
Brian K Guitar I could’nt say it better! Thank you...🙏🙏🙏
I was just leaving high school when they started. What an intense time to go to the beach at night with a big group and listen to the Cars and talk to the most beautiful women. What happened to that kind of a girl? I don’t see them now and feel disappointed my son can’t meet that generation of a girl today.
@ Brian.. Me too😎SO much a part of my late teen years, and up til today..
I love them so much 💓 my favorite band of all time rest in paradise ric and ben
You took the big vacation..rip Ric Ocasek, ty for all the great music..✨❤
I saw these gents live at the Rosemont Horizon stadium in Illinois in high school in '83 or '84. I need to look back and savor my saved ticket. Back then, they were so on fire. Everything they played was nostalgia in the making.
Yes, I wish I had seen The Cars live as I was quite the fan. Still am. I did, however, see Duran Duran at the Rosemont Horizon in April of 1984. Great concert.
Now it's the allcrap arena😄
I was there, too! Nick Lowe opened. 2/13/82
I saw the Stones at the Rosemont in 81
I remember watching this in the early 80's at my neighbors house on a Friday night. Fell in love with the Cars then and it's been a great ride all these years. RIP Ben & Ric. 🚗🚗🚗🚗🚗
I love how each one of them is dressed here. They're such individuals. Yet their musical cohesion flows like a well-oiled machine! :)
Thats one of the fun things I love about music. It brings such an eclectic mix of individual together in the name of music. Whoot!~
i just want to go back to that time! Life was so cool, and the Cars were so Hot!
Was thinking the same thing. Ah, to go back. Youth.
It was a great time in life if you were a young adult finishing high school when their first album came out. I remember going to these late night beach parties with the Cars blasting from our stereos as we drank cold beer around a huge bonfire.
I love The Cars so much.....RIP Benjamin Orr and RIck Okasek....Since your gone....I've thrown it all away...the Moonlight ain't so great .......
Elliot Easton...one of the all time greats on lead guitar! The Band of the 80's
RIP Ric you were a big part of my youth.
I'm so happy after all these years that they will finally get inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. A long overdue recognition that is all the more sad because Ben isn't here to receive it, in his hometown Cleveland. We'll all be celebrating with Ric, Elliot, Greg, Dave and Ben the greatness that was and is THE CARS!!!
Now 2 of them are gone. Great band and I have many great memories tied to their music.
Since you're gone...I took the big vacation!! Rest in peace, Ric!!
Ric Ocasek & Benjamín Orr #legends
Dont forget Elliot Easton on guitar
So true
Greg Hawkes gave The Cars their unique sound. Without him, it would not have been nearly the same. Peace and love, Greg! ✌️
Very true one of the most talented and underrated bands ever. Music nowadays is just garbage. Thank god for all the music made in my generation
Going to miss you, Mr. Ocasek...since you're gone. :(
Oh my, forgot about this awesome live performance!! What a great band in their day. My regret did not see them live...
80s Best Decade for music. No decade has surpass this yet.
Rock on in Heaven Rick,you have plenty of good company to hang with! Thanks for all you have given us!!
The cars were so unique, original and utterly awesome!! RIP RIc and Ben!!!
I've been to several hundred concerts since 1980, but sadly, I was never fortunate enough to have seen The Cars perform live!! I love their music, and they were definitely ahead of their time! Rest in peace Ric and Ben...we love you both, and the other members of the legendary band THE CARS! You'll never be forgotten.
They really embraced the 80s style. Excellent song craftsmen.
Benjamin Orr..unsung bass hero
RIP Benny, I love ya and ya know that.....But I don't care how many likes you've gotten ktmpl...Of all of the Bass players in, Oh, so many bands, Benny wouldn't even be on the top 20 list....I'm sorry he's gone, but that's no reason to give someone such high accolades for being a bass HERO......Sorry!
ktmpl he was my fav bass player
@@foofoobear66 Indeed. he was so underrated as a bassist and a singer. RIP Ben. you bring back so many memories
Benjamin Orr *always* found creative ways to make his lines interesting and surprising. He “served the song” beautifully.
wonderful musician, sorry he's gone. But does anyone here notice he looks a bit like young Christopher Walken?
Every song....the lyrics, guitar, keyboards, drums, all together are an assemblage of unique and original music. Each song is a collective masterpiece....
Ben totally struck the pose and held it at the end, great musicians!
Some bands just are a soundtrack of a genre of a persons life, for me The Cars were a life changing soundtrack as I went from kid to cool young teenager in 7th and 8th grade and I remember my girl so vividly the summer in between my 7th and 8th grade year, it was like 81/82 ish. To this day we are still friends and to this day if a Cars song pop's on the radio either I will text her or she will text me. What a time it was. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world..
THANKS RIC AND THE CARS FOR THE TIMELESS MUSIC RIP
Miles Davis was asked during an interview if and what rock he liked, and he said "Cars are cool".....
Great story. Didn't know that.
Не знал этого.
Do you have a link or source for that? I'd like to use it, but I need a source.
@@rebeccastevens1876 It was a while ago. It was either a Rolling Stone or Playboy interview...
He was also an incredible racist who said he'd like to spend his last few seconds on this earth killing a white man.
It's hard to think about acts this chill and confident during slow, groove-focused songs like this one. This band really was unique, so well balanced and professional.
I'm glad I discovered them recently.
My god they were so effing tight on stage. Damn.
what a sound...the coolest
Elliott Easton - underrated badass virtuoso.
Greg Winston Bret Easton Ellis overrated author.
For us that are 80’s kids nothing like the cars to give you a flash back, like watching Friday Night Videos or MTV for the first time, we was last generation to be original with our own style and music
Fridays was ABC's short lived take on Saturday Night LIve in 1980. I saw and taped this performance. Love this
Excellent , loved that show
Considering the 80-81 season might be the most forgettable season (the first post Lorne Michaels season, with Gilbert Gottfried and Charles Rocket part of the cast), Fridays actually had a better show for a time. Then NBC realized what Eddie Murphy could do and the show was revived.
"You're so treacherESS!" Ric is kinda channelling Dylan. I dig it!
he destroys dylan in every way
They were so young & "innocent" - we all were. The good ole days. I remember skating to this song at Skateland, Petersburg, Virginia.
We had a Skateland in Jax Fla. Hope yours was a much fun and full of memories as ours...Grew up at Skateland and all kindsof Great Music...!!! Those were the daze...!?!
@@darrylcole7869 Oh yes it was a blast ! Skating rinks are a dying breed. We still have a 'Roller Dome' in Sandston, VA.
There's a 2019 documentary movie called 'United Skates about the last skating rinks in the U S. Highly recommend.
Takes you down memory lane. Bittersweet ! ✌😎
Okay, who is still loving the Cars in 2021? I am for sure!
wow again...don't think the 80's would of happened without these guys...so fresh
Trying to think of an 80s band with more presence than the Cars, can't think of one.
70's band
A voice like no other, thank you Ric may you Rest In Peace.
These guys were off the charts awesome!
nobodys cool like Ric Ocasek in sunglasses and a mint green suit
What about me with my 3d glasses on? 😎 LOL Just kidding. :-)
Playing a Dean Cadillac
And marrying a supermodel. He was the new wave man.
Suit looks blue.
I saw them live in '84. He was very cool. A bit distant, but in an artsy, cool way
Rest in Peace Ric! Loved your voice and will continue to listen to the Cars!
Thanks for all the wonderful music, Ric. R.I.P.
That's a real band of professionals, right there.
They opened with this song when I saw them in concert in '81ish in L.A. One of the few bands who sounded even better live. One of my favorite songs of theirs is Bye Bye Love. Ben killed it on that song with his superb vocals and in his Gaucho outfit and hat. I've always loved these guys. RIP Ben and Ric.
I can't believe you're gone. Rest in peace, thank you for the great music and memories.
First class guitar solo, first class drumming, first class Band! 👏👍👌
Rick: Wait, I thought we were dressing like wedding singers...
Benjamin: Wait, I thought we were going to be dressing like space aliens....
Elliot: Well then who the fuck left a note in my hotel room saying we were going to be dressing like 50's car mechanics?!
David (chuckles under breath)
Remember listening to the Cars, age 8,love them forever.in my memories growing up in the 70s..I'm 47...🤘🌵🖤
One of the most under rated bands of ALL time and so far ahead of their time.
For those that love them, good on ya, for those that don't, your loss.
Reminiscent to the Doors a little over a decade before them in regards to uniqueness & bucking the trend.
A big part of my teenage world, the cars were superb and I still have those albums now.
Love how Ric makes that little smile just before he says “the moonlight ain’t so great”
I think that’s where Ric and Benjamin exchange smiles. Very cute ☺️
Remember seeing this on Fridays. Love the Cars. The epitome of the 80s.
R.I.P ric your songs will always be a part of my life thank you

THE BEST MUSIC OF THE WORLD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The best part of my life, the 80's!!! The Car's are so great!!! Everything was so much fun!!!! It's 2023, there is nothing in the music business, that comes close to the 80's, and never will!!!! 💯💯👍👍🎶🎶🎶.....
