Nexterday is a great album. I see it as being about overcoming other people's problems, valuing what's important and real, and finding meaning in loss.
The Cars has always been my favorite group. RIP Ric, your music was a staple in my life while growing up. I wasn't a fan of Nexterday, LOVE This Side of Paradise though.
Ric Ocasek Siempre Te Voy A Recordar!! Como Uno De Mis Grandes Ídolos Por Siempre y Para Siempre !! Por Toda El Resto De Mi Vida!! Estoy Bien Dolido Por Tu Muerte Saludos
Love this guy. Love the band. BEN. RIC. GREG. ELLIOT. DAVID,. and not in that order.....THE CARS. 5 guys combined make one whole awesome legendary band. Immortal on film and recordings forever. Ben Orr passed way too soon. Leaving behind his greatest legacy: his one and only child, BENJAMIN ORR JR. Ric passed unexpectedly, and suddenly... Proving not so great regarding his slap in the face regarding Paulina and his son's. ...that was really pretty heinous actually, but none the less, the total lady that she is and has always been, she shines. What a great example THAT woman has always been, and to this day is. Top notch. None the less THE CARS: FOREVER. GREAT TALENT. GREAT HUMAN BEINGS. TALENT GALORE.
Rick could be very be accomodating, though I've heard some say he was difficult at times. He sounds like most of us! I'm grateful for his music and songwriting. The Cars were technically put together by Rick, though all members contributed immensley to their sound. I'm 64 now and never really got into The Cars in the late 70's & 80's. Now, I truly appreciate that they were definitely NOT just another band! I love many of their songs. RIP Ben Orr and now Ric Ocasek 🙏🌟🎸
I wonder if Ric is sick of hearing about that _Fast Times at Ridgemont High_ scene. But then, it made him a fair amount of extra money, for a song that was already on their own platinum album.
Hey FB friend! I notice those things too . . . "Under the cold and darkly sky" turns up in both "Up and Down" _Panorama_ and "Take a Walk" from _Beatitude_ . . . There's been other instances, I think.
@@donnasweetpurplejune6335 NEXTERDAY took me until THIS year to really embrace and Bottom Dollar was my gateway in the lyric. I love this piece Tracey - always love your channel.
well, he was separated in 2017 from his wife and they were living separately as well (in 2018,during hall of fame induction, his wife and their 2 children were there for him, but they were split up and he was living on his own)....they were going through a divorce but wasn't final when he passed on 9/15/19..... his wife at the time of separation said it was hard being in a marriage by herself.... they were married for 28 yrs, though before they separated.
seemed like a good dude ... the music underneath the interview is insulting tho ... not every gap of silence needs to be filled with content ... its just goofy ... also trunk takes his “job” way too seriously ... just sayin
I am a big Cars fan and love Rick's music - the hook on this one though sounds like "Love is All around" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-h3gEkwhdXUE.html
-9:38. Ric is 61 here and has a 4 year old son so he had him at age 57? I didn’t know why but that sounds kind of weird, I mean imagine having a baby at age 57. /js.
