| If you like the "Drive" side of The Cars, this CD takes that Westcoast approach and runs with it. Great late-night listening from the late Cars bassist. Ben Orr R.I.P. and thanks for the great AOR!

UNA JOYA DEL AOR, COMPARABLE CON STAN MEISSNER COMO DICEN, PERO NO A BEAU GESTE????? (BEAU GESTE IS MORE POWERFUL), EXCELENTES TEMAS COMO  Stay The Night(EL CLASICO MAS CONOCIDO DE BENJAMIN), In Circles, Hold On, When You're Gone, Too Hot To Stop ESTE ALBUM ES PARA MI TODO UN AOR SUPERCLASSICCC!!!! DE LO MEJOR QUE A SACADO BENJAMIN, SUPERA CUALQUIER ALBUM DE THE CARS, UN ALBUM AOR DE CALIDAD TOTAL. RAITING 5.75???(STUPIDS BOYS), WHAT HAPPEN, FOR ME IS A 10.

| Obviando el 1er comentario, despues todo de acuerdo.. un gran album de Orr, no encuentro temas ni buenos ni regulares, todos son muy buenos y en una onda pop-AOR! que facil te recuerdan a los Cars y que no tiene para nada de malo a mi modo de ver.. comienzan con un tema muy a los Cars rockerizados, de alli para adelante todo es lite-AOR.. seguro que se nota la mano de mike landau por aqui.. como dicen, este tipo de musica ya no se hace.. asi que a gozar y a tenerlo.. 9/10.

EL CD ORIGINAL en lo personal para mi vale y sabe mas tenerlo original ya que un cdr o bajado de la red. No sabe a nada ni vale nada (sin ofender a nadie) gracias por tu musica BENJAMIN ORR R.I.P 10/10 no lo dejes ir. maujobarksott@hotm

| Good album but more new wave than aor or any other thing.Shame he died and he cannot give us another taste of his creativeness.The Cars spirit is in here too and that makes it more appracheable 4 listeners."Stay the night" is a hit that will remain forever in our ears!!!!.

| Discazo Lite AOR como catalogan, repleto de temas memorables, aunque es innegable la presencia de acordes The Cars en casi todos los temas(y un poco de New Wave en la deliciosa "That's The Way")De lejos la joya es la magica e invalorable "STAY THE NIGHT"(Hey compatriotas recuerdan que aca en Peru las radios la pasaron por primera vez recien en 1987?)con este disco uno puede imaginarse lo que The Cars pudo haber hecho en la arena AOR(al menos no escatimaban dureza en las guitarras.Gracias Mr Orr.

| Para mi en lo personal The Cars siempre fue una banda invalorada por los medios musicales.Solamente con el super hit "Drive" es que comenzaron a tener mas reconocimiento pero mismo asi despues no volvieron a tener ese gran apoyo mediatico que quizas de vez en cuando no cae mal.Benjamin Orr quizas quizo ayudar aunque sea en solitario a The Cars con su unico album y "otra vez" con la cancion "Stay the Night" logro un poco de notoriedad pero sin romper esa famosa barrera de la ignoracia musical por

| One of the best discs I've ever heard. It's a shame this is his only effort, but what an effort it is! "Stay the night", "Skyline" and "This time around" is what 80's rock is all about! Not a bad track at all and it becomes clearer that Orr's creativity was held back by Ocasek in The Cars. Buy! 10/10

| This is a beautiful Hi tech Pop AOR album!, with good melodies, a mellow style and great songs like "Too Hot To Stop" and the astonishing "Stay The Night" where we can hear the relaxed and deep voice of Benjamin Orr shining at its best!

| I agree with Wachen on the songs he named. They are 80's heaven. This album is kinda remarkable. It's one of my most treasured cd's I own. I got the re-issue and the sound is actually improved a great deal over the old cd (certainly not always the case with re-issues). Listen out for Michael Landau's world class solo on the title track. Ben orr sings brilliantly on this and the solo is just one of the best subtle ones I ever heard from ML. I often rewind it several times. It really brings down the curtain with a bang on Ben's great angry and melancholic vocal delivery. Also the song Hold On is a piece of 80's heaven and another reviewer somewhere online said he felt like he was in a romantic 80's flick when listening to 'When You Gone'. Priceless. 10/10. I love this album and consider a masterpiece

| Oh Yeah aorfan700, Wachen´s comment says it all. "Stay The Night" "This Time Around" and "Skyline" are my all-time favorite tracks here. "This Time Around" wow what a nostalgic song, pure AOR HEAVEN! 9/10

| I haven't had the opportunity to comment this album properly (just a short comment in english way back in 2007) ...i did it quite extensive in spanish (also in 2007) but now it is mandatory to write comments in english and i won't miss the chance to do so as this album is...GREAT!!! ..."Too Hot To Stop" great catchy starter,"In Circles" splendid beat,"Stay The Night" what can i say about it...magical and classic of all times ,"Skyline" wonderful song,it transports you directly to another galaxy ,"Hold On" nice one,"That's The Way" another catchy track & "This Time Around" ends the album in an elegant smoothie way...Benjamin Orr..you and Ric Ocasek made The Cars big...your legacy will remain intact in our memories...God Bless you brother...94/100

| Nice and relaxed album, very well produced too. But not a classic, by no means. Stay the night is the obvious winner here, what a great track, and the album closing song This time around is beautiful too.
