As one who witnessed the rise of The Cars firsthand, my brother was the drummer, I admit to not taking to Ric at first, it wasn't till years later when I saw him and Paulina and their kids and was surprised at how down to earth she was and how married life with her seemed to suit him,thanks for all the great music and for The Cars being a big part of my life.
@Joe Materese It drives me crazy when people refer to David's drumming as minimalistic. When listening to the songs from the demo tapes(reels), there is so much more to his drumming. The cues to other band mates, the god fills are unique, the changes in tempo and timing.....all there to tell everyone where they are in the song. His responsibilities were endless. That, and his love/flair for the groups cover artwork. I miss it all.
@@BrimHawk - You know who else could be described as "minimalistic"? Charlie Watts (Stones), Ringo (you know), Nick Mason (Pink Floyd), ... The list of "minimalistic" drum gods could go on forever. Good company.
BrimHawk Robinson was Mozart with sticks . Ringo was Ringo , man . You know ? Try walking a mile in a ramones leather jacket , or Roy Orb's THICK sunG's .
Paul Robinson your David is a wonderful musician, as I’m sure I don’t need to tell you. I reviewed Candy-O for Trouser Press and remember specifically calling out his wonderful work.
Sure was. I can tell Stephen was shocked and saddened by the news. He could not believe it. I love the way he had ended. Let's go. That was one of The Cars' many hits,which I love beside Drive.
zizinnnn ... One time when Ric was working with Andy Warhol , He was asked , " Did you ever think , when you started out , that one day , you would be working with Andy Warhol ? " Ric looked at him ...seriously , he said , " Yes . "
Naturally, Colbert has an elegant story to commemorate the passing of Ric Ocasek, complete with a funny video to close it out. RIP Ric Ocasek (and thanks for the heartfelt memory...).
Ric Ocasek put together perhaps the MOST contemporary band in the history of music with The Cars. They definitely had an original sound. ...just a few notes and you KNEW it was The Cars. I will miss them greatly. RIP. Ben Orr & Ric Ocasek 🙏🌟🎸🎹🎶💫
Same, there’s been a couple times where he’s gotten emotional and I’ve started tearing up. I’m so glad he has this show, no one can replace Carson, but he’s amazing. With all the darkness in the world he does a great job shining. So smart and great at being informative while still keeping it light and funny, but also knowing when to hit a more serious note and keep it respectful.
@@ericamcghie8476 Colbert is a terrible interviewer, his stand up monolog sucks and every joke he makes is about trump.. They're not even really jokes, it's like a personal vendetta he has against the guy. worst talk show host on television in history by far
I’m saddened by the loss of Ric, and Ben all those years ago...but I’m happy Ric is getting the recognition he so richly deserves. They pioneered the new wave genre. Ahead of the times by 4-5 years. Some classic songs. RIP Ric.
That was a beautiful thing to witness. My heart hurts, last weekend was a devastating few days. Eddie Money on Friday and Ric Ocasec on Sunday. Rock and roll took a real hit. The Cars were a breath of fresh air in a smoggy time in music. Rock, New Wave, Disco, Metal groups fighting for recognition and relevance and there were some real hit and miss options. The Cars fusion of synthesizer New Wave, and old school rock combined with awesome vocals stood out from the many. Ric, thank you for The Cars and all the hits, they remain a mainstay in my music catalogue. Rest well. Peace out.
The interview with Ric and Stephen was memorable. I love it when his enthusiasm bubbles over. Ric could handle it...so cool and down to earth. An icon. 🚘
Funny enough, when I heard that Ric had passed away my first thought was of his ‘appearance’ on The Colbert Report, when Stephen was interviewing Paulina Poritzkova and Ric was standing just off stage staring daggers into Stephen. Glad to see Stephen had such fond memories of him. 💕
Heartbeat City (the album) was such a fundamental part of my 80's music experience. I don't know how many times I watched You Might Think on MTV. I enjoy every song on the album. Thanks, Ric!
I'm Stephen's age and sometimes I wonder.. Damn! I'm as old as Stephen Frikken Colbert!!! I first saw The Cars on some New Years' Eve show and they were completely brand new and fresh and their song's kicked serious ass and I loved their music. They were a big part of the soundtrack of my high school years and for years after. I'll remember when my dad came up and told me his new favorite song of all-time was "Drive". Here's a guy who graduated in '58 and listened to that old-time rock n roll. Dad's still around and "Drive" is still his favorite song and The Cars were a magical band.
The cars have always been my favourite band; I need only hear the opening cord of a song and I am transported back to a special moment in my youth. RIP Rick.
I loved The Cars, but Stephen went into and graduated from High School with their music. Losing the soundtrack to your life sucks. We don't know them, but they are a part of our lives.
I love Ric Ocasek's music, primarily with The Cars but also solo works. The Cars music was a major influence on me and helped me cope during difficult times. Peace to you, Mr. Ocasek...
“Ric was recuperating very well after surgery,” the Ocasek family wrote on Instagram. “Our two sons, Jonathan and Oliver, and I were making sure he was comfortable, ordering food and watching TV together. I found him still asleep when bringing him his Sunday morning coffee. I touched his cheek to rouse him. It was then I realized that during the night he had peacefully passed on.” He had heart surgery according to the latest reports.
The Cars have been one of my favourite bands since 1978, when their self-titled album came out. I'm forever grateful for the music they created and shared. RIP Rick
Like Stephen said, "The Cars" were the soundtrack of my teenage years...and the world has lost a musical talent with few equals. Condolences to Ric's family, friends and millions of fans (including myself). 🌹
The Cars had a sound that was original. They melded pop, new wave, and rock in a way that made you sit up and take notice when their music first came out. Very polished and yet also very raw. Unique combination. R.I.P.
it's not only that, I think. Theres is a thing with data encoding standards changes (like going from analog to digital, satellite to cable, codecs and all) which makes not so old footage distort greatly when put on new platforms. I think that's what @Max alluded to. RIP Ric (although being french and in my 30s I don't think I knew his music too well). .
Everytime Stephen pays a tribute or rememberance to a fallen celebrity/idol, the emotions well up inside and I burst into tears. Stephen is brilliant, wholesome, and true.
There was one episode of the old show, where his wife hit on him, and he growled at Colbert in the background. It was awesome, a lot of fun for an awesome rocker!
Boston lost another one of its greats. I'm a proud Bostonian and this one is bummin me much like Leonard Nimoy's passing. 😥 Much thanks to Stephen Colbert for acknowledging Ric Ocasek. 👏👏👏
Thank you Colbert. Just hearing the news of Rick’s death brings tears to my eyes. Along with Elvis Costello, I want The Cars to be played at my funeral
I couldn't believe it when I heard this. I was exposed to the cars when MTV exploded, and they became part of the soundtrack of my youth in the early to mid 80's. Can't believe that Ric Ocasek was 75 years old. Truly an innovator in pop music and sad to see him gone. Great tribute, Stephen. And who are the 93 f-----g people who disliked this?
My 16 year old son listens to a wide range of music. The other day I asked him if he liked the cars he said he didn’t know them. I sent him a few cars suggestions. He was a instant fan and how could he not be they’re the fucking cars!! Another legend gone. RIP Rick
August 1978, the best concert in my life. The Cars and the late Eddie Money, amongst other notables. Fleetwood Mac headlined the festival series, The World Series Of Rock at the old Cleveland Municipal Stadium on August 26, 1978. Also on this amazing all day bill was Bob Welch, Todd Rundgren & Utopia, The Cars and Eddie Money.
my first memories of the Cars was back in the early 80's when my friend got his 1st car and it had a booming stereo. the best sounding cassette he had was the Cars and we cranked it on repeat for as long as i can remember. good times.
the first time i heard The Cars, it was the song "You Might Think". Ever since, i am hooked! What a great pop band! they represent the 80's pop culture to me.. :)
Same here - I actually don’t remember which one was my first, The Cars or Centerfield by John Fogerty. Either way, they’re both incredibly prized possessions...
I remember seeing him all the time on W.8th St. in the Village with his lovely then wife Paulina Poreskova!!! The were so kind and laid back!!! 👏👏👏🙏🏻R.O. 💝
On Stephen's story of meeting Rick - I was volunteering at the Toronto International Film Festival one year, and I was an IT aide, I spent my shift in the basement of one of the buildings watching a workstation set up for people, and occasionally me or the other guy there went upstairs to clear the workstations up there of personal data, browsing history, etc. The one night, I went upstairs, did that, came back downstairs, and on my way to the basement I passed a group of people. I paused and realized I recognized one of them, and looked up at the stairs (the area was wide open with a balcony on the main floor) and saw the group on them. "Oh my god... that was Jon Stewart". He was there for the premiere of Rosewater. Unfortunately I never actually "met" Jon, but it's a wonderful feeling to just be that close to one of your heroes, and I'm glad Stephen was able to meet this one.

Wow, he really knows how to make it sound okay when he cries inside, knowing that another friend is lost forever.
Your tributes to those who have left us are always so real and from the truth-speaking heart.
Those first four albums were such classic lessons in minimalist rock done really well.
what a lovely and sweet memorium. Rip Rick
What a genuine and simple tribute. Thank you
A HUGE Void Opened. We Lost Someone that moved our society. He Changed Life on Earth.
and now he's gone.
The Cars was the music of my youth and will be with me *_forever._* And thank you, Colbert, for honouring such a legendary musician.
I had just moved to NY when I was 18 and the first celebrity I saw was Ric Ocasek. Someone called his name out and he turned around, smiled and waved.
Like Stephen said, "The Cars" were the soundtrack of my teenage years...and the world has lost a musical talent with few equals.
