Saw a clip for this on a show called Hollywood Heartbeat - I'd love to see that again.

[1beamer11]

Thank you SO much for posting this. This is what Youtube is for...the long-lost gems that no one ever plays... Always loved this song. Thank you KROQ of the 80s and 90s for playing the greatest songs.

THE MOTELS／Danger

マーサディヴィスの妖しげなヴォーカルが、忘れ難い…。

[kevhar12]

I`m looking at the cassette of this album as I type this. I`m glad I still have it. I love Martha`s singing so so much. It gives me shivers.

[a1jimhubler]

can i post a comment or what ? pffft

[Paneeks1960]

There is something about Martha's voice that makes me think about times ago and past relationships. I loved The Motels and still feel as though their music stands up today. She not only has a beautiful voice but also has a beautiful soul. Thanks for the upload~

[mikaellachiriboga]

What about rain?

[preciousbash]

EXCELLENT!! Have not listended to this in like 15 years! Always listen to ONLY the LONELY and have heard SUDDENLY LAST SUMMER recently..but not this!! YIPPIE!!!!Thanks for the video!!

[sohail909]

Why America does not produce bands like Motels anymore? why we have to listen crappy music on MTV all the time.

Love Martha.. u are the best

[gothicsakura82]

peolple has become less thinking

[Heidi328]

@gothicsakura82 Point proven by your statement lol

[mojomama59]

love Martha Davis

[gwright199]

great tune --- love Cry Baby from this period, --- it reminds me of what X could have been with a sultry vocal.....

[MohanndasChutney]

Whaaaa...? X? X was great as they were (and still are). The intertwining of Exene's untrained and slightly off-kilter voice with John Doe's understated but solid presentation was like chaos meeting order and getting along instead of fighting.

Punk rock, especially back in the day, was all about just picking up your instrument and playing, musicianship be damned. Even people who aren't traditionally taught have plenty to say, and Exene has that in spades.

[riverrat79852]

I sat on a ship in the Gulf during Desert storm and listening to the greatest hits album. Look for the video "shame" that brings back memories of becoming a man.

[gigigirl888]

Classic 1981!!!! I love this band . . . it's tunes are embedded in my soul.

[cmac853]

the song of my adolescence

[redrocket1955]

I heard this tune around 81 loved it !Waited for it to come back on the radio all through the 80's and 90's no luck.Then I'd think did I really hear that song was it The Motels?Still I had the bass part mind and the word stranger or danger when I bought a computer and learned bout youtube.Typed in Motels and there it was!!! like 27 yrs to hear it again and it was for real afterall !!!

[MediaPointEnt]

Mind boggling how this amazing band never had a #1 hit. Tragic. Simply the luck of the draw. Martha Davis and the Band was brilliant. Some of the best tunes ever written. Has nothing to do with talent. And Martha was as stunning and gifted as any Hollywood screen Goddess !

[zubawaba]

always loved this band. Been playin' there stuff forever. Celia-atomic cafe-mission of mercy

[bassandguitarguy]

Great tune! Grat LP! Martha will be 58 on Monday 1-19-09! I also love Mission of Mercy, Take the L and Total Control.

[gillfrancois]

the utter sexy voice, the mix sax/bass, the very special delay on the keybord... basic drumming à la Fleetwood mac, what a strange combination. Awesome.

[kevhar12]

I can`t describe how much The Motels music and Martha`s singing mean to me. They enhanced my life through music.

[jandronene]

Sino es su mejor canción, esta entre las 3 mejores de uno de los mejores grupos de la New Wave de L.A.

[cabeef]

This the BEST song by the Motels - even better than Total Control - CAREFUL wasn't a hit - they wouldn't hit the big time until ALL FOUR ONE - but for me, this is their early peak. Sexy, menacing, and yes...dangerous - all in one.

[lostcause130]

makes me feel lkie a kid again! could anyone post 'days are o.k' from 'careful' pleeease/

[Tpanther775]

My absolute favorite of The Motels. It's get played all the time on my ipod. Never get tired of it or Martha Davis

[dietcoke1z]

[matthewsbasementband]

Love Martha's Voice too!
