Well, maybe Eddie Money's 2nd ticket to paradise was for Ocasek .

Who’s next? These things always come in threes. Or so they say.

For a short time I think he was also married to supermodel Paulina Poroskova, dayum..!

The Cars were one of the few “new wave” bands I liked. I was surprised to hear he was 75, because I consider any music released after the classic rock of the 50’s-early 70’s younger than me. Ocasek was almost 10 yr older than I am.

75?.........Now I feel old....................

[Old Grumpy]

I’m so sad to hear this. I always loved the Cars. Rest in peace, Mr. Ocasek.

Songs from their album “Heartbeat City” was the soundtrack to my young teenage life in 1984.

But was he wearing his nuclear boots and drip-dry glove?...

Ocasek made some great music. RIP.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

You know, for some reason growing up, I’ve always thought the group The Cars made the song Cars.

Condolences to family and friends of Ric Ocasek. R.I.P., sir. Thanks.

[BeauBo]

We can celebrate a successful life.

Wealth, fame, popularity. Fun.

Anyone who marries a Victoria Secret model, has achieved special status in my eyes.
