Cars, The - My Best Friend's Girl Lyrics

Shane McCormick Macdadfu

Lead guitar breaks into 'Words of Love' at the end with a little help from 'Come Go with Me' Stratocasters vs. Telecasters I think.
'

Actual live performance. No lip syncing, no tape enhancement....

All these years later and I still love their music

Rest in peace, Ric. They don't make music like this anymore and that's a damn shame.

I can't believe Benjamin Orr and Ric are my favorites and now they are in heaven RIP 😔

How can ELLIOTT Easton cram so many great riffs and one song. Incredible!

Does anyone know when and where this was?

Hopefully Ric and Ben have made peace on the other side. It didn't happen here.

What a great sound. Elliot Easton.

Reminds me of early Beatles

Awesome Rockabilly vibe!

How can a nation produce something so brilliant as the cars and so awful as Donald Trump?

One has nothing to do with the other, idiot.

The most recognized Adams apple in Rock n Roll, these guys were the best!!!

Not many people know that black folks in Tallahassee Florida loved this song. It was played with some regularity on WFAM in 1979.

an’ they don’t make ‘em like that anymore folks!

Ric Ocasek 1944-2019

David Robinson tearing the drums up he's simply Killin it

One of my favorites!

I love how, Ric is chewing gum during this performance. So laid back.

I think this is the first Cars song I ever heard.
R.I.P. Ric and Ben

Joe Rogan/Rob Zombie brought me here, not a huge fan but this played on the radio everyday when I was in the car with Dad and I remember liking the rhythmb and riff at the end.


RIP Ric

Thanking the cars for such great music..from the beginning..you'll be missed Ric. ...RIP

Some of the best music ever made. Unbelievable loss that Ben & Ric are gone. You live forever in this beautiful music. RIP.

This is the song that made me want to start a band. A little bit of New Wave, Power Pop, Rockabilly, & pure Rock n Roll. Thanks and RIP, Ric Ocasek.

First, we lost Benjamin Orr to cancer. And now, it's Ric Ocasek due to a heart disease. We'll miss you both. RIP, Ric and Ben.

Ben is the true GOAT of the cars.

One of the most creative and technically-sound bands of the era. RIP, Ben and Ric!

RIP Ric Ocasek - you made the 80's that much more fabulous and I miss you already!

I was 15 in 1985. These guys were the soundtrack to my youth, good and bad times. I love them forever.

Seaside Heights
