    Miss him. Not only talented, but a class act. Never saw him acting like a fool or doing anything annoying. Been over 20 years since his passing and he is still missed.

      Ben Orr certainly did do foolish things. Some of those Cars songs were promiscuous. And he married twice and had a son outside of marriage.

    Two corrections (other than the Grasshoppers/Grassroots thing everyone else already mentioned):
    1. He released two singles from his solo album, The Lace. The 2nd was Too Hot to Stop, but didn't break into the top 100. There is a music video for it, featuring a couple of Cars members, and it did make it to 25 on the Billboard Rock chart
    2. The Cars didn't perform again after they broke up, but they did all meet for a final interview together a few months before he passed away for the release of The Cars DVD Musikladen

    It is the 8th wonder of the world (to me, at least) that he didn’t sing lead on EVERY song The Cars made. Quite frankly I thought Ric Ocasik’s voice was abysmal. And Orr’s voice was conservatively 1,000 times better. I can remember saying out loud, hearing a Cars song for the first time where Ocasik was singing lead “Why?!?!?!? Why is not Orr singing lead?!?!?

    This video has several factual errors. The early band was The Grasshoppers, not Grassroots. And Ben did not perform with The Cars one last time in 2000 before he died, he participated in an interview with The Cars' former band members in Atlanta, then flew to Alaska to perform with Big People. That was his last public performance before he died. Just trying to set the record straight.
