Oct 14, 2008 - This was a featured video on the old V66 station in Boston. Haven't seen this in over 20 years and it's still as good as I remember.Bass drum and guitar in this song are great.

Oct 14, 2008 - One of the more melancholy videos I remember from the 80's

Oct 14, 2008 - Awesome song. Beautiful video. Excellent use of the Linn Drum machine. That's the way they're supposed to sound. So, so cool all the way around.

Oct 14, 2008 - Ric Ocasek is one talented dude, geeky yeah but a hell of a musician. I love all the Car's albums, especially "Candy-O"-my alltime fav album to listen to from start to finish..and Marianne Gravatte is still with us...and looks very hot for her age....or any age

Oct 14, 2008 - Whaaaaaaa??? Ric Ocasek, such a gentleman. Shakes out his umbrella before entering the house. Doesn't put his feet up on the furniture while he waits. Opens the chick's car door for her. And then the bitch drives away! LOL. Classic.

Slance1Himself Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - Hahah yes mate, absolute classic. Similar thing happened to me once... And not once, really :D

Oct 14, 2008 - I don't think she drove away in his car at the end. I think someone was already in the drivers seat when she got in.

RoyNeary Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - I've got to agree. When I was in HS I used to watch MTV just to get glimpses of Marianne Gravatte in this video! Love the "chin butt" on her, it's just so sexy!

RoyNeary Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - I have Beatitude on vinyl, but I don't think it was ever released on CD which is a shame because while overall it wasn't consistantly good like "This Side of Paradise", the few singles on it were really standout!

RexCarson Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - Does anybody know who played the guitar solo on this tune?

auriasmom Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - I had never heard this song until I happened to run across the video on YouTube. I can't believe I've missed out on it all these years--it is such a catchy song!

cubdukat Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - As far as I'm concerned, "Beatitude" is the best Cars album not actually featuring the Cars (apart from Greg Hawkes).

dondepar Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - I believe it is Casey Lindstrom on lead guitar.

RexCarson Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - Thanks! I guess I could've looked at my album to find out but I would probably die of dust inhalation trying to find it !

modsleix6 Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - We just played this yesterday at a show. Freaking cool song. Good reaction from those not of the Britney Spears fan club. Just don't make them like they used to. 80's rule.

lulus219 Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - I used to listen to this song over and over and over again on my cassette tape walkman. I had such a CRUSH on the girl in the video!Really one of the best songs ever!Wish they had this video on itunes.

BBQkrewe Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - Marianne Gravatte. grr....

auriasmom Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - I would be very interested in seeing what she looks like now. If my calculations are correct, she should be around 47.

dzoolk Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - she had the hairiest bush ever i got a pic of her just out of the shower from playboy.

mizzlaural Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - other songs on this TAPE are good to

Oct 14, 2008 - Amazing song by The Cars ex front man. One of the best vocals in Rock. If you guys like this then you should have Nexterday; Ric's latest effort in your collection. I do:)
