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.
I love it when covers really stay with the essence of the song
Are you kidding?! The talent is insane.
agreed! he needs WAYYYYY more subscribers than he does!!!!
Right!!!
I agree, most talented I've ever heard!
I agree!!! 👏👏
I know when he started singing I was hooked.
This man.... I simply cannot watch this man without smiling and pouring myself a whiskey. Work day cancelled, again.
@michaelm.3957 Me too! This guy plays it like he was in The Cars
You are absolutely fantastic, I mean every word, seeing your keyboards made me cry all I ever wanted were several keyboards, and I had to move and the men who were supposed to put a lot of my stuff in storage lost 2 keyboards and at least I have one, I play by ear, and music is my 1st love,
Shout out to Studio EP-Service in the Netherlands for letting me use their awesome vintage synth room to record this cover!
I was hoping you lived in the UK ..?
Great voice & great skills !
I'm currently working on a small project, my music partner is from the cutting crew ! (Colin farley)
I've written a track (w.i.p) music wise and am looking for a male vocalist..... and you would be perfect!
Feel free to contact me
Regards
Paul
Aaaaaaah,...I was about to say how the hell did you get all that great gear!! Beautiful cover mate. This song means a lot to me. 😌
dude that was awesome
Very good from a portuguese fan of your covers, by the way which country came from...USA, the Netherlands ...
Simply beautiful! Great effort.
This is the best cover of this song I have *ever* heard.
Ben and Ric would be proud
ben visits me a lot
He's got all the keyboards that were the pioneer in building the songs of the past to 80 and so on ..not mentioning his talent ..wow ..
Master piece sounds like the original and even greater 😮
Makes me turn on my heart light.
Absolutely superb....
Thanks Jason, much appreciated!
The late great Ben Orr must be smiling. Another great, spot-on cover!
Thanks John!
Clemens Wenners - the King Of Covers. 👍
Unbelievable. 1 guy. So much talent!!!!
Это очень здорово!! Музыкальный парень, прямо профессионал своего дела. Хорошее звучание и голос!! Бенджамин Орр радуется с небес таким продолжателям и поклонникам.🙏🙏❤❤
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.
Wow! No 1 after original The Cars. Bravo!!!
Geez! Not a single song that isn't done incredibly well. You are just something else. As a kid growing up in the 80s and now in my low 50s, you have nailed this genre of music. Stunning! Keep up the great work! You are a pro!
Best song EVER! Great job!
Why would anybody give thumbs down to this masterpiece?? It really pissises me off really bad 😡
Two reasons, they are idiots and they are completely jealous of this guys unbelievable raw talent.
So close to the original. You are so musically talented. The music and vocals are breathtaking. Thank you for sharing your skills and overdosing me with your beautiful music....
I love those classic synths!!!!
Was watching Your Place or Mine on Netflix and this song was played in the movie, best cover so far!
Clemens. What a great performance!. As good as the Cars. No exaggeration!. I am shocked.
I shut my eyes and you take me back to my early 20s excellent job.....Bravo!!!
Im gonna learn this myself or die trying...I KNEW I was right and all the other videos showing how to play this re wrong. this guy has all the parts correct.
Oh my word - Goosebumps!!!
БОЖЕСТВЕННЫЙ ГОЛОС БЕНА БУДУТ СЛУШАТЬ ВЕКАМИ! И,ЗАМЕНИТЬ НЕКТО НЕ СМОЖЕТ!
НО,ВЫ ИСПОЛНИТЕЛЬ ХОРОШИЙ. 👏👏🇸🇮🇸🇮2023г.РОССИЯ!
one of my favorite songs
This is insanely great!
The only thing that keeps wondering in my mind is what's wrong with those 7 people that disliked this video? What happened to they? Are they dead inside?
They never drove away from home...
Trolls on everything these days. That’s what is wrong with them.
They got no life, lol.
Probably some furious Z-gens😝
Simply the best cover channel on youtube. All the best from Portugal
Thank you Tiago! Greetings from the Netherlands!
@@ClemensWennersMusic Your covers are awesome! I watch them everyday.
Sehr sehr professionell und Originaltreu. Gefällt mir sehr gut Clemens!

NAILED that "when you shake" line at 2:46. NAILED it!!
Solid cover
R.I.P Ric Ocasek ♥️
R.I.P. Benjamin Orr

It's impressive to see so many rare keyboards in perfect condition!!
Congratulations !! you have the legendary keyboards that the top players used at the time!!
Great song, great singer,Ben would be proud to hear this

Good music! Great for traveling there listening to music!
Absolutely brilliant, the music is just as good as the original, and you have matched up the sounds perfectly. As for the vocals....
Perfection!! Sang just as well as the late, great Ben Orr, he would be so proud, a great tribute to him 😊
Incredible. You'd be hard pressed to tell this from the original. Excellent work.
Wow ! Ben is smiling from above 😍
Man hope that studios in a impenetrable vault.
The gear of a dream.
Fun tools to those that can afford it, priceless fantasies to those that can’t.
Great work.
Por que que um artista assim não fica conhecido mundialmente ? Parabéns, você canta muito. Rick Ocasek e Benjamin Orr teriam orgulho disso...
Jayyysus. I was 13 years old. You just transported me back to my childhood. It was truly captivating. 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
You nailed this song as it's one of my favourite ever songs from Surrey England 👍 👏 ❤
Clicked to learn keys and then this great voice too? Talented.
Besides great talent.the goodly gentleman is using the vintage synths used in the 80s.nothing else could give that unique sound.
This hands down is one of the best home versions of this song The synths actually sound better than the original song. Thanks for sharing.
Flawless.
Unbelievable. Words fail me.
Benjamin WOULD BE PROUD man! Excellent vocals and sweet keys brother!
I think this is One of the most romantic songs ever made

Your version is incredibly good. You meticulously worked out every single detail and special sound. Big compliment. You should perform on international stages, my friend.

"whos gonna hold you down when you.....shake" you perfectly delivered
Are you sure you’re from this era? Every single video you make takes me back over 35 years ago, flooding my mind with memories I hold onto and cherish so deeply, you’re absolutely incredible, please don’t ever stop, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart!❤️
Of course Drive, perfect choice! Another hit, Clemens!
Thanks mate!
Excellent !!! Thanks for your music.
2:07 "... nothing's wrong..." with this cover version. ;))
Amazing interpretation. I love the choral backing vocals in this track, reminds me of 10CC I'm not in love
Gorgeous. Ben Orr smiling looking down. I hope you've watched the LiveAid Philly "Drive". That Elka SYnthex. I know it didn't make an appearance but wow.
I loved when Ben Orr did this...but this is just wonderful!
The Cars "Drive" lovers... Watch & listen to this !
Thumbs up & thanks for this outstanding vocal & instrumental performance on these electronic beauties...

Como olvidar tan linda canción de THE CARS, excelente el cover se asemeja al timbre de Benjamín.
Saludos y un abrazo desde Bolivia.
Bravo excellent you should be very proud, you sang from the bottom of your heart and soul 😊
Look at all those old synths! Beyond just a mere cover, this is a perfect recreation of the original.
(I have a mint condition Chroma Polaris, last analog synthesizer, if you need one for your collection.)
Bro. Amazing.
Ça me rappelle la grande époque des séries des années 80.
C'est magnifique.

OMG !!!! You did such an amazing job to one of my favourite 80s pop tracks ever. My favourite part of this (I guess) is how you captured the keys and synth that have haunted my heart since I was five. I'm sure Ben Orr must be smiling at this. Wow !

Brutally insane. A blast 💥
This song is one of my all-time favorites and you interpret it in a great way. Congratulations, greetings from Mexico City.
