    Another great '80s classic, this is my version of Drive by The Cars. A big soundscape of synthesizer goodness. I used vintage Oberheims, a Jupiter 6, a Prophet 5, and a DX7 amongst others. I hope you enjoy this video!

    1987 after my senior prom my girlfriend and I went for a drive and parked by the lake in our small town. We were talking about all the fun we had had that year. Just when I said to her it's getting late and I better drive you home this song literally started playing on the radio station l was tuned to. It was a blissful drive home. I should have married that girl, but stupid me wanted out of that small town. Now, I deeply want to get back to a small town and a slower pace.

      This music makes me remember of a girl who was always involved with wrong guys. I loved her very much and I tried to bring her to me. We were very close friends, but she never listened to me. Twenty years later happened we meet again. I am married, she is divorced. She turned into a totally different person. Not even close to that sweet girl I knew in my teenage. But, when this music plays, the images of a tender past that's all it brings to mind. We never talked again.

    Dude. Let me just say I was wrong. With Ric Ocasek recently passing, I've been listening to a lot of the Cars. Being 48, I remember them well. Anyway, your video came up as recommended & my initial reaction was, "Let's hear how much this guy butchers it." Couldn't have been more wrong. You did a great job. No one could ever touch Ben Orr's version, but this was an excellent tribute. Well done ~ & sorry to have misjudged you.
