I love to see Mr Hasselhoff still has it in him at 69 years old.

He's 72 now. Just had a birthday this month.

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!

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

Lyrics
I am the passenger
And I ride and I ride
I ride through the city's backsides
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, the bright and hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight
I am the passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's ripped back sky
And everything looks good tonight
Singing la, la, la, la, la-la-la-la...
Get into the car
We'll be the passenger
We'll ride through the city tonight
We'll see the city's ripped insides
We'll see the bright and hollow sky
We'll see the stars that shine so bright
The sky was made for us tonight
Oh the passenger
How he rides and he rides
Oh, the passenger
And he rides and he rides
He looks through his window
What does he see?
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...
Singing la, la, la, la, la-la-la-la...
