Clever music production: 80s Mercedes = 80s sequencing; 90s baby = 90s radio/acoustic sound of the day. This is how/why this song -- even though is country -- can play in any genre that can use the 80s style sequencing. A+++ for production. She can play in pop; house; trance any music genre out there and fit right in.
Its 2024 and I'm just now discovering Maren. I don't know if its because i stopped listening to country years ago or what but I've been missing out for sure!!❤
After losing my wife, and severe depression, I bought my dream car. A perfect and hyper rare 91 trans am convertible, the passenger seat will forever be a ghost. But man, I feel this song so hard, car runs perfect on those sunset summer nights by the coast. People often say, I haven't seen you smile in years. Thanks Marren, the vibe is beautiful.
My sincerest apologies go out to you for your loss 💔😭🙏 this is my only fear in life, to lose my partner, so I CANNOT imagine the pain you've experienced having to go through this. I'm so proud of you for finding some form of comfort in the little things again though to help you heal 💞🤗💞 you have immense strength to keep on keeping on through this life, and that's so inspiring 💯 here's to the 2 of you being reunited in Heavenly happiness again someday and cruising down those streets of gold in your 80s Mercedes! 🚘🥲🥂😇
This is so good. Marren's music is so silky and smooth. I usually cringe at "country" music that tries to be this poppy but it just works. It's got a country vibe but is modern enough to sound fresh and appeal to the audiences of this time. I want new music from her right now.
I think 90s baby in an 80s Mercedes was one of the greatest songs because it just shows you they were two great years the 90s and there were the more greater year than when yours truly is Robert Franklin Hulsey Robert Lee holy James Albert Douglas Junior who makes cabinets Douglas yourself is it WCW MCW happened in the 90s in the 80s with the greatest 1993 are the blizzard is my bird this is the greatest thing that happened this are you pushing the table
My grandma has dementia and can no longer drive. Today she signed over her 1990 Corvette to me. I was born in 1992, so this song applies to me for sure. Although I listen to more hard rock and rap, I can relate. I remember her buying it years ago when I was getting ready to graduate high school. I never thought it would be mine. I’m going to get it running so I can take grandma to some car shows and cruise ins.
I’m a Michigander that travels for a living. I had a three year job out in Southern California that I visited three weeks or more every month. One time I got a mustang convertible for a rental and met a nice gal from the local area and we would drive around the soCal area on the weekends like this video. Man she was so much fun, lost contact a couple years ago. I miss you, stayci
I found this song by mistake while browsing through latest music videos, and although I usually don't listen to this genre of music, I was instantly in love with this song, particularly because I too am a 90s baby in my 80s Mercedes :)
I might be a 90s baby but I don't have an 80s Mercedes, I have a 70s Beetle, and he's perfect. This song resonates so much still with him! "still runs good, built to last" "ain't made for practicality" "turning every head, hell, I ain't even trying"!!!!!
whoever directed this music video deserves a Emmy. I loved everything that was in the video. I wish the sky was like that in real life. Great Job, Maren Morris!!! I LOVE you!!! 😘
I had an 83 S class Turbo Diesel Mercedes from the time I was 16-20. Born in 85 but this song reminds me of my younger years so much! Love it! Totally plan on getting a Benz again one day! That thing was a tank and I still see it around from time to time.
She is so incredible!! Such a blend of pop and smooth country!! If your looking for an introduction to country SHES perfect!!! Deserves every bit of success she has. So damn likable and lovable ;)
To anyone who loved their first car, this song will bring back the memories! Mine was a 1980 Jeep CJ, so many memories were made running around in that thing! Wish I'd never sold it...
Dude, my first car was a 1979 CJ-7, lol! Loved that Jeep. I've driven Mercedes for 26+ years, and I have a step-daughter who was literally a 90s baby in her 80s Mercedes. Still miss that Jeep!
95 Jeep Wrangler 4 speed. Driving to Ocean City Maryland in the summers ☀️. Sold it when my daughter was born. Found it was totaled a few years ago. I still have a set of keys 🔑 to it.
I'll never forget on August 12th 2020 when I got my 918 83 Mercedes I was born in 1993 and having a 1983 Mercedes was the coolest thing in the world so yes I am a 90s baby cruising around in my 80s Mercedes and I challenged I dare anybody to tell me that the 90s cannot smash with the classics like in 80s
Happy that somebody's giving the 80s the props it deserves. This song and video totally lives up to its name with the Vice City style neon colors, and the car's got a tape player!
Maybe, but I just feel like this is a song about feeling good about being a 90s baby. To each their own though. That's what music is right? That universal shit.
If you haven't got Hero, you should get it asap, it's a brilliant album, one of the best of the year. Maren Morris is such a talented writer, each song on the record is instantly memorable and catchy
I love this song its a good feeling song. I just sing along with her every time it comes on. I remember the 80s and 90s. Wow!! Beautiful times back than. I love this song very MUCH!
Oh oh, oh oh, oh Oh oh, oh oh, oh Still runs good, built to last Moves like a hula girl on the dash She ain't made for practicality Yeah, I guess she's just like me It's Saturday night, about time to go Got my white leather jacket and a neon soul Once I turn on the radio I'm ready to roll, roll, ready to roll Feel like a hard-to-get starlet when I'm driving Turning every head, hell I ain't even trying Got them Ray-Ban shades pretty in pink Call me old school but hey I'm a nineties baby In my eighties Mercedes I'm a nineties baby In my eighties Mercedes Oh oh, oh oh, oh Oh oh, oh oh, oh Pop the top down like a summer dream She's my teenage time machine Just keeps getting sweeter with age She's classic through any decade The sun's in the sky, glitter on the seats You can try, but the Benz is hard to beat So, hey, if you want you can ride with me, ride, ride with me Feel like a hard-to-get starlet when I'm driving Turning every head, hell I ain't even trying Got them Ray-Ban shades pretty in pink Call me old school but hey I'm a nineties baby In my eighties Mercedes I'm a nineties baby In my eighties Mercedes Oh oh, oh oh, oh Oh oh, oh oh, oh It's Saturday night, about time to go Got my white leather jacket and a neon soul Once I turn on the radio I'm ready to roll, roll, ready to roll Feel like a hard-to-get starlet when I'm driving Turning every head hell I ain't even trying Got them Ray-Ban shades pretty in pink Call me old school but hey I'm a nineties baby In my eighties Mercedes I'm a nineties baby In my eighties Mercedes Oh oh, oh oh, oh Oh oh, oh oh, oh Oh oh, oh oh, oh Oh oh, oh oh, oh
i dont know why but this song brings memories of me and my grandmother before she died and i love this song it just for some reason brings back good memories
Might be stupid to comment something this late but I had to cause this comment made me smile. That’s epic and it’s a really pretty name. The fact that you embrace the car association makes it even better haha
***** It's pretty pop sounding. A few of Gaga's new songs are a bit more country, yet are played on normal stations. I was going through some stations I didn't normally listen to. I heard this song and didn't realize it was country radio!
***** I only read your first few sentences (since the rest is scarcely worth reading). As I literally just said before, Lady Gaga has had a few country songs that have been on pop radio, so this song would fit in just fine. Whether or not you like her music doesn't matter. It's been labeled as country. Why are you so emotional about the genre labeling of music?
***** You listened to absolutely nothing I said. 98% of Gaga's music is pop, but her new song Million Reasons is clearly country-pop. I'd be interested to see what you think of it.
I reckon you're right Jacks. It's getting harder to differentiate between genres these days. I don't think that's a bad thing. I think it's important to maintain diversity in your craft, particularly if you are a contemporary musician and are seeking a wider audience. To some extent though, it does make labeling and classifying music quite difficult. And don't worry mate, country songs are finding their way onto all formats of radio here in Australia, as are other forms of music now being played on country radio. This makes it hard to tell which station you are on, so I can fully sync with your comment. It's a top song though, regardless of how it is labeled or what genre the artist and listeners consider it to be.
Man I love listening to this! I grew up with a single mom and 2 older sisters, so I learned to be the man of the house at the very early age, and also, sometimes you just gotta shut up and listen, and be sensitive, and sometimes you gotta get in touch with your feminine side! It's a wonderful thing!
Clever music production: 80s Mercedes = 80s sequencing; 90s baby = 90s radio/acoustic sound of the day.

She can play in pop; house; trance any music genre out there and fit right in.
Sheena Easton did her early songs that way, too, like her lone U.S. number 1 hit "Morning Train (Nine to Five)"
Really cool you noticed this if its true.......id love to learn more about music!!!!
I was born 1989. Close enough to the 90. I like really like this song.
Its 2024 and I'm just now discovering Maren. I don't know if its because i stopped listening to country years ago or what but I've been missing out for sure!!❤

Just fine
Sounds like a song that will be timeless and still hold up twenty years from now .
Timeless just like Mercedes from 80's 😜
@@huseinalisic5896 Couldn't have said it better
Yes.
exactly
Well... It's already going on 10 years..
"still runs good, built to last" " you can try but the benz is hard to beat" the best car lyrics in any music genre!
I think this song is PHENOMENAL MISS MAREN!!!!!!!!!!! I grew up in the 80s, this song is a FABULOUS tribute to those times!!!!!!!!

I just bought a 99 SLK 230 convertible roadster and now hooked on this song.
Man !, this is real music. Believe me
Maren Morris is such a talent! Young with such an old soul. She’s here to stay. Love, love, love all her songs!👍
Going to pick up my 83 300sd tomorrow had to listen to this a few time to get me pumped

I graduated in the mid 80's admiring Mercedes Benz cars. I think it's a fun song.
I found this song by mistake while browsing through latest music videos, and although I usually don't listen to this genre of music, I was instantly in love with this song, particularly because I too am a 90s baby in my 80s Mercedes :)
Cool!
desert
Me too! I never listen to country yet I love this
saaame! its so good and catchy
Nina Simone Westig country's good though, you people should give it a chance.
Terrific song I keep hearing played at the Texas Roadhouse I work at.

Brings back memories, I remember when this song hit the charts. I love it, fast upbeat!!❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹
Another wonderful song.......... She is the next superstar and i hope she here to stay
I heard this while driving my 1983 300D and I was born in 1991... this song really speaks to me. lol
Similar story, except born in 1988 and driving a 1991 420 SEL.
Ya me too just bought a 99 ml320 and born in 94 ... so kinda off I guess .. still catchy though :)
C Kretzschmar That's a W126 chassis, that body style is from the 1980s so it still works. lol
whoever directed this music video deserves a Emmy. I loved everything that was in the video. I wish the sky was like that in real life. Great Job, Maren Morris!!! I LOVE you!!! 😘
Yeah but when she driving her hair isn't moving..
+Jennifer Cooper also she didnt fall off the car when she was sitting in the back

Fell in love with this song after a few repeats on the station. Not much worth listening to on radio nowadays. Beautiful voice, pretty lady.

Thanks Maren Morris! now i can cruse in my mercedes, listening to 80s mercedes, AND step out and introduce myself as Mercedes xD
Your hot
This comment cracked me up. Thanks.
I hope "How It's Done" becomes a single! Totally deserves attention for R&B listeners. I love how all music inspires her musically
This gives me some 70s 80s vibe 🎶

Phenomenal lyrics, fantastic composition, I've heard this song over & over again.......
Shes amazing
Heard this on the Jo Wiley show tonight.Great song,so glad it is being re-released
Love this song...Look forward to her future work.
I love this song to pieces I really does make me want a old Mercedes in the near future
Only someone who grew up in the 80's, became a musician, mixer and record producer can fully appreciate how brilliant this is
testify!... just a perfect song ;)
Best pop song of the past 5 years
I appreciate that all of her songs aren’t about guys. Some of them are, but not all of them. Really digging that vintage sound in her music took.
Please bring back more music like this! Rock n roll vintage :D
The song might be country, but the video is pure synthwave. I love it.
countrys the best
Musically very well done, love the bottom end, driving bass and drums.
anyone here from 2021? this song is still amazing and needs more recognition (:
Needs way more views
II'm not sure how I found this song, but I'm so Glad I did. I love to sing along with Maren....
I love her voice. She sound awesome!
Love this song!!!
Me too! :)

😃
Me too 💕

Love the lyrics to this song. I was born in the 1990s and very appropriate to me
I never really listened to Marren but after seeing her live she was amazing and has a lot of songs I didn’t know I liked
When this song comes on the radio I turn up the volume so high

Maren has another hit, knew as soon as I heard it, turn it up on the radio! Love it!
Love this song, catchy tune and how I feel.
Oh oh, oh oh, oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh
Still runs good, built to last
Moves like a hula girl on the dash
She ain't made for practicality
Yeah, I guess she's just like me
It's Saturday night, about time to go
Got my white leather jacket and a neon soul
Once I turn on the radio I'm ready to roll, roll, ready to roll
Feel like a hard-to-get starlet when I'm driving
Turning every head, hell I ain't even trying
Got them Ray-Ban shades pretty in pink
Call me old school but hey
I'm a nineties baby
In my eighties Mercedes
I'm a nineties baby
In my eighties Mercedes
Oh oh, oh oh, oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh
Pop the top down like a summer dream
She's my teenage time machine
Just keeps getting sweeter with age
She's classic through any decade
The sun's in the sky, glitter on the seats
You can try, but the Benz is hard to beat
So, hey, if you want you can ride with me, ride, ride with me
Feel like a hard-to-get starlet when I'm driving
Turning every head, hell I ain't even trying
Got them Ray-Ban shades pretty in pink
Call me old school but hey
I'm a nineties baby
In my eighties Mercedes
I'm a nineties baby
In my eighties Mercedes
Oh oh, oh oh, oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh
It's Saturday night, about time to go

This was such a fun song to listen to! My friend rocked out to this on a christmas party in Ponsonby. Thank you Maren Morris.

Hi
Jenna Carpenter I love this song too

Have always been a hard Rick guy but for some reason I love this song.
Rock and roll not Rick.
