What do you mean "bad video"? This video was really funny and entertaining. You want me to describe what a bad video is? Watch the R.E.M. video for It's The End Of The World As We Know It. That is one of the most horrible videos ever made!!
time flys by doesn't it, wow the cars are awesome, R.I.P Ben, and its kinda odd that the girl in the TV screen flashes out April 2000 which was when Ben was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer.
was it just coincidence that the girl at the beginning flashes April 2000, thats when Ben found out his cancer was inoperable and he passed away 6 months later. Now THATS strange. Rest in Peace Ben, the Cars arent the same without you.
I love the cars! they do have some 'filler songs' like every other band does. But along w/ funny their completely scary......MULLETS!!! I had one in high school. They were cool back then Lol.
@cavityfix1 I read what you said about filler music; have you listened to all of their music that was not on the radio? They have rare finds on all their albums. If you ask Cars fans which song is their favorite, it will always be different and change periodically. Their music is fluid and sublime.
I really like their live performances, but one of many songs I adore is "This Could Be Love"
I have lots of their good stuff on my channel. Rock On!
Gotta love the 80's, in Uruguay, every 25th August, theres a special night, called "la Noche de la Nostalgia" (the nostalgic night) where all the dance clubs put only 70's 80's and 90's music, is a really popular night, I love it cause it keeps the old music alive.
Hey don't feel bad if your still stuck in the 80's, you just miss when song artist had true talent own individuality, wrote there own songs and had amazing voices..
This song reminds me of my childhood... I feel ancient and im only 33, lol... Great song, great memories... Its funny that it says Classic MTV, its when MTV actually played music 95 % of the time... Other than that tv show Remote Control that I always wanted to be on...
@ThemanDeshawn I know how you feel. I'm 33 too, and I feel so damn old especially since I am so out of touch with today's society. I like old music, old shows, etc. The internet and cell phone are about as techno as I will get.
Funny enough, I'm 32 now and I remember when Remote Control first debuted on MTV in 1987. The same year The Cars released the Door To Door album. I was 8 years old in 1987 and my second grade year of school was from late 1987 to early 1988 and every day when I came home, I would turn on MTV and watch Remote Control. However, that was still when MTV was the bomb because like you said, they actually played videos then and now they just have a bunch of worthless reality shows.
The 80s had so much great music; original, written from scratch, and performed as a group. The 80s have the highest song remake rate. It's no wonder; the music was great then and it's still great now. Hard to live up to that decade again music wise.
I know they don't stand out as much and Ben and Ric. That's because Ben and Ric were the lead singers, but what I was asking was if you thought either Greg or David were attractive. At the start of the video you see David taking pictures and then you briefly see him tap Ric on the shoulder and point out the chair with the radar screen in front of it. Greg is the one with blonde hair who turns up the room with the frozen girls in it too high until they deteriorate too fast.
What was your opinion of David Robinson and Greg Hawkes? David is the drummer who has dark hair and Greg is the keyboardist who has blonde hair. Greg is the one who turns up the defroster too high in the video and causes the frozen girls to deteriorate into freaky appearances. As for David, he's not seen as much but there is a part of the video when he's playing a drum set that's moving forward.
this video is hilarious - and the space ship opening like an orifice with the phallic space thing @2:47 ... thanks for posting...never saw this before...
While Door to Door is probably the worst album by The Cars, I'll take The Cars at their "worst" over a lot of other groups at their best. The album has my favorite Ben Orr vocal in Go Away (probably one of my top 5 Cars songs ever). Sure, this song wasn't in the same league as their earlier stuff, but they certainly know how to write a damn catchy tune. To me, that's just as valuable. And Elliott's solo in this one is proof of why he is so underrated. He has melody and taste for DAYS!
Funny enough, Door To Door is actually my all time favourite Cars album. I thought it was a fantastic album and coincidentally, Go Away is my number one favourite song off the album! Go Away is such a beautifully performed song with lots of vibrant electronic sound and Benjamin Orr sang it so enthusiastically to a point where it was just such a great powerful track. Unfortunately it never made it as a hit but I feel it truly should have.
great song, great video. I think they should of picked a different song for it though. the songs too sad and serious in my opinion. oh well. the song was popular, none f the other tracks were. they did what they had too do.
It's verified! A new CD and tour early 2011!Greg Hawkes is tackling Ben's Bass Guitar chores. You can hear one of their new songs on .music.aol. I'm thrilled to no end!
@outacontrol41 The Cars posted pictures of themselves working in a Boston studio on Facebook. In 2005, Greg Hawkes and Elliot Easton toured as The New Cars with Todd Rundgren on lead vocals. They released a CD with a couple of new songs, including Not Tonight, which they made a video for, and the rest were older tunes.
Sexual innuendo in this video for sure. The joystick Ric is holding simulates masturbation, and their spaceship "Docking" insinuates intercourse action. Very inventive video. The alien women at the end are a hoot! Word has it The Cars are re-uniting and are in the studio. So sad Benjamin Orr died. It wont be the same without him. :[
I think it would be awesome to have a guy sing this to me ,lol but anyways hell i guess it don't hurt to dream , anyways this is a real fun feel good song R o C K on
WHAT CAN I SAY , THIS WILL SOUND BRASH, BUT THIS WAS MY LOVE MAKING TUNE IN THE 80"S , THE GIRLS LOVED IT I LOVED IT & I WANT TO THANK ALL THOSE HUNNIES WHO BENT OVER BACKWARDS FOR ME , BADA BING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL
Recently have had to use a car w/a Cassette deck in it & Damn those are harder & harder to find theese days (Cassettes) I have to go to thrift stores & I got Door to Door for 50 cents & I Really Really Like it more & more the more I listen to it AWSOME!!!
Not even worthy of their great past. Sad to see a great rock band rely so much on synthesizers because everyone else did. Sounds like a band going through the motions. First three albums were classic, this is just embarrassing.
I have liked this video of The Cars, because I like science fiction; I thought they did very well; and end of the world in science fiction with only aliens from outerspace for hot dates does come up, sometimes. I read it by metaphor, and there is a statement about the hoard of women who showed up for The Cars.

This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Wow. This is awful and The Cars mercifully pulled the plug on themselves shortly thereafter.
Seriously, if you're a fan of this group but relatively new then check out the 1st 3 albums from the 70's and 80's. Way ahead of its time and much better than this fica pop.
Sorry all you droolers....this techno, electronic drum crap is what ruined this band.Their first 2 albums were rock classics, but this fluff-beat crap doesnt hold an audience. THIS type of tune is for the "flavor of the month" crowd, a la Flock of Seagulls or Naked Eyes. As soon as next month, people that like this are onto something else. If they'd kept going with stuff like the first 2 albums had, their career would have continued, so you can attribute their demise to this schlock !
It's amazing. Door to Door is by far the Cars' weakest album. Their earlier stuff is head and shoulders above their output during the 80's. However, this is my favorite song from my favorite band: the Cars. I guess even when they were cheesing around, the Cars were still capable of pop-rock gold. This is the song in my head when I think about the only girl I've ever loved.
After "Panorama" The Cars were pretty much mainstreamed into the pop-rock radio-friendly world. This song is a good example of that. Always found it to be far below Ocasek's writing standards. The dangerous, creative edge he displayed on the first three albums was pretty much gone by this time.
Good tune, but the video would have been better if it featured more Benjamin. The guy is sexy as hell. No, instead, they have homely Ric and that other blond guy taking up air time. Gee, you would think that they would have wanted to display Ben more, since he was really the only good-looking one in the band! Ric may be talented, but I really don't want to look at him all that much. LOL.
I think the reason Ric got the most face time in this video is because he was the one who sang lead vocal on this song. If Ben had sang lead vocal then he probably would have been seen the most. Didn't you think that David Robinson or Elliot Easton were attractive at all? I'm referring to the drummer and the lead guitarist, not Greg Hawkes of whom you referred to as the other blonde guy. David has dark spiked hair in this video and Elliot has wavy reddish coloured hair.
I love that first model in the video her name is Ashley Richardson. I was in an elevator with her in Paris France one time. She has been in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue before. Oh Yeah, I love the Cars.
De niño, veia el video de esta canción siempre. Recuerdo que la pasaban en algun programa musical de los 80s, que ni recuerdo el nombre. Pero solo tenia "flashes" del video, especialmente de las "mujeres mutantes", nisiquiera de la letra y el ritmo. Hoy x la tarde en un café, ya a mis 26 años, oi la canción. De pronto mi subconsiente atino a hacerme escribir la letra de la canción. Y a estas horas me doy con la sorpresa, de que era la canción, que cuando niño veia.
Esta canción la escuchaste en los 5 minutos que daba canal 9 entre novela y novela y que se llamaba "el momento musical", era entre las 2 y 3 de la tarde, me acuerdo porque yo veía "Cristal". >Me sonó como a medio maricón pero no lo soy, sino, pregúntale a la mujer de tu hermano.
@lovtheoldstuff I lived in the communist country (USSR) and it was very hard to get musical hits same time as other world. Album Door To Door was realised in 1987, but i see this video at the first time only in 1988.
this has to rank right up there as being one of the most bizarre music videos ever made. even by the Cars' standards. this was directed by Andy Warhol, if i'm not mistaken.
This is a real good song. I do not believe this album killed the Cars. The cars started making money in 1977 so the were strong until 1987 with this song. Then the 90s came and new music began to replace the 80s music. The cars were huge from 1978 until 1985. But I love the Cars. One of my favorite groups. I also love the Cure too.
I heard this song in a grocery store in CA. So I looked it up on the web and found it on U Tube. I knew it was either a CARS or Ric Ocasek song when I heard it. I was 24 years old in 1987 when this song came out. Too bad I did not hear it then. I think this song is awesome.
This song is awesome! It is the first time that I ever saw this video. I miss the 80s. I am now 45 years old and the past 10 years have gone by in a blur.
This album didn't kill the cars. It just happened to be their last. They were on the way out before it was released. This album was very underrated also.
What a band!!!! I was completely in love with Benjamin Orr!! LOL! Back when MTV actually played music videos! Brings back sooo many memories, thanx for posting.
Thanks for posting this. It's a fun video (and you can tell it is) and sadly the last single to make the charts for them. I also like their hair a lot better. The Door To Door album really isn't bad but if you listen to it it it just sounds like the music style is all over the place and I think that threw fans and critics off. I think there are 1-2 more videos from this album but they are hard to find.
one of the best songs ever.
thanks.

After "Panorama" The Cars were pretty much mainstreamed into the pop-rock radio-friendly world. This song is a good example of that. Always found it to be far below Ocasek's writing standards. The dangerous, creative edge he displayed on the first three albums was pretty much gone by this time.

Good tune, but the video would have been better if it featured more Benjamin. The guy is sexy as hell. No, instead, they have homely Ric and that other blond guy taking up air time. Gee, you would think that they would have wanted to display Ben more, since he was really the only good-looking one in the band! Ric may be talented, but I really don't want to look at him all that much. LOL.

I think the reason Ric got the most face time in this video is because he was the one who sang lead vocal on this song. If Ben had sang lead vocal then he probably would have been seen the most. Didn't you think that David Robinson or Elliot Easton were attractive at all? I'm referring to the drummer and the lead guitarist, not Greg Hawkes of whom you referred to as the other blonde guy. David has dark spiked hair in this video and Elliot has wavy reddish coloured hair.

I love that first model in the video her name is Ashley Richardson. I was in an elevator with her in Paris France one time. She has been in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue before. Oh Yeah, I love the Cars.

De niño, veia el video de esta canción siempre. Recuerdo que la pasaban en algun programa musical de los 80s, que ni recuerdo el nombre. Pero solo tenia "flashes" del video, especialmente de las "mujeres mutantes", nisiquiera de la letra y el ritmo. Hoy x la tarde en un café, ya a mis 26 años, oi la canción. De pronto mi subconsiente atino a hacerme escribir la letra de la canción. Y a estas horas me doy con la sorpresa, de que era la canción, que cuando niño veia.
Gracias, x el aporte.

Esta canción la escuchaste en los 5 minutos que daba canal 9 entre novela y novela y que se llamaba "el momento musical", era entre las 2 y 3 de la tarde, me acuerdo porque yo veía "Cristal". >Me sonó como a medio maricón pero no lo soy, sino, pregúntale a la mujer de tu hermano.

@lovtheoldstuff I lived in the communist country (USSR) and it was very hard to get musical hits same time as other world. Album Door To Door was realised in 1987, but i see this video at the first time only in 1988.

LOL!!! Look at Benjamin's face at 3:04. I love it when he raises his eyebrows. lol
Thanks for showing us this video! R.I.P. Ben

this has to rank right up there as being one of the most bizarre music videos ever made. even by the Cars' standards. this was directed by Andy Warhol, if i'm not mistaken.

I think Mike Meyers may have been influenced by this video. There are some ideas that are very much like the Austin Powers movies.

This is a real good song. I do not believe this album killed the Cars. The cars started making money in 1977 so the were strong until 1987 with this song. Then the 90s came and new music began to replace the 80s music. The cars were huge from 1978 until 1985. But I love the Cars. One of my favorite groups. I also love the Cure too.

I heard this song in a grocery store in CA. So I looked it up on the web and found it on U Tube. I knew it was either a CARS or Ric Ocasek song when I heard it. I was 24 years old in 1987 when this song came out. Too bad I did not hear it then. I think this song is awesome.

This album didn't kill the cars. It just happened to be their last. They were on the way out before it was released. This album was very underrated also.

Thanks for posting this. It's a fun video (and you can tell it is) and sadly the last single to make the charts for them. I also like their hair a lot better. The Door To Door album really isn't bad but if you listen to it it it just sounds like the music style is all over the place and I think that threw fans and critics off. I think there are 1-2 more videos from this album but they are hard to find.
