True. I always thought this album was the zenith of their techno-pop phase. I wore out more than a few cassettes (yes cassettes) of it in the day and still have several of it's songs on the hd in my truck. Great band.
Right? Silly how after the first couple albums they kept him hidden in most official promo videos. You'd think he looked like the Horror of Glamis instead of one of the most beautiful men in rock music. In fact, it was nice in this video in general to see the rest of the band getting to play real active roles, it was fun. They should have had more like it.
If I were stuck on an Island with a choice of only 5 songs, this would be 1 of them. I'd never get burnt out either. 43 years later & I still listen to this often... on loop. It's timeless. A classic. Never gets old. ❤️🔥 Panorama is my ultimate favorite Cars song!!!!! ❤️🏎🏎🏎🏎🏎🤟🏼
This is great !!!! This right here proves that EVERY member of The Cars should have been shown equally in all the Cars videos. They all can act. They're funny. I hated that Ocasek dominated all the Heartbeat City videos. I never understood it. They were a band, but came off as Ocasek's backup band in those HBC videos. They were lucky to get a few seconds of airtime. Ugh!!! The band is so great in this.
THE CARS!!!! (Joke is they were going to merge with the remaining members of The Doors ... they would be called The Car Doors! lol BTW Never seen the Doors, although they always get first billing at concerts, I'm sure you've seen it: THE DOORS OPEN AT 8
This album as a whole was less mainstream than the first two, much more new wave and with a Devo vibe, especially this track. Haven't heard this in years!
This video is a celebration, a nod to the accomplishments of contemporary industrial design. Although it was created back in 1980, the look and feel of this music video was ahead of its time and is completely relevant to today. A real master piece.
Just like an artist, Ric didn't want to spoon feed the beholder with why or what he was talking about. You got something from looking/listening at what he created not on canvas but his brush strokes were genius quips and clever plays on words. Were his writings abstract in design or colorful broken pieces made into a collage for your mind and ears? "Where happy days count on thumbs" is genius. Implies a 50s TV show (Fonzie thumb up gesture) and plays it as a limited amount of happiness having only and counting only on two thumbs! I hope that someday, his family will release a book with his thoughts and writings. He was truly a complex and very intelligent person. We really never got to know him and I think he wanted to be hidden and found too.
@@anti-ethniccleansing465Thank you for your comment. Your comment captures yet another aspect of observation about their style and visual presence! You too, see the forest and the trees. Looking closely at any masterpiece, it brings joy to see the fine strokes of a brush held by a master. Look from a distance, you observe the construct. It is a gift to see what others may miss. Well done!!
@@davidcollins6455I agree. I had 4 cars albums. I don't recall any songs from this particular album. I do remember it coming out but that's about it. I think you're right. I was going from Tom Petty and the Cars to Judas Priest, AC/DC, Scorpions right at that time this album came out .
A different, but cool transitional song in their catalog, when they were experimenting with their sound. I think the song has it's own unique flair that stands today, though obvious influences are evident. It's also great to see that they were not taking themselves too seriously and having fun when they made this video. A classic.
Robertgee..this song is great...the cars had that one of a kind sound that couldn't be duplicated by no other group in that era...RIP to the bro..Rickey o!!!!!!
Robertgee..you got a great point..devo,flock of seagulls,talking heads and the b-52s defined a new wave pop sound..just saying bro..the cars had 5 great albums..Back 2 back good songs. Listen to candy o,and the first cars albums...!!!!
This song always had a Devo vibe to if, for me. Even the video seems Devo-ish? It's certainly "of the era". Bought it the day it dropped, still love it!
When The Cars did DEVO. Course, they were contemporaries and DEVO was have a very good year. I love both bands. I think ‘Touch And Go’ was the most Cars like track on this album, which was definitely underrated. Great stuff on there.
My favorite band of the New Wave era. This song has a very Devo-like sound to it, especially Greg's keyboards. I don't think he got enough credit as a player, and the whole band kicked ass on stage. Ric was so iconic in his look and unique in his vocal style, many of my friends at the time couldn't get past it to see just how good the music was.
This was my go-to album during the Fall of my High School Senior Year. Tight, concise combinations of lead, and base, with perfect synthesizers and keyboards.
I am cleaning my place today and I am listening to this album for the third time, ha. I wish I could get inside Ocasek's head and find out where in the world he comes up with his lyrics. I remember when this album came out. I bought it, but no one liked it and you never heard the songs on the radio. It was too far out, too genius for mainstream, and ahead of its time. Then MTV came out and this album took off.
This is from my favorite Cars album. The songs on this album felt "darker" for some reason. "You Wear Those Eyes" is one of their best songs and most underrated.So is "Up And Down." If you looked up "New Wave Music" in the dictionary, this band's picture should be there front and center!
Agreed, some of the songs had a dark feel to them. I found many of the songs had a crystalline, icy kind of feeling, with the heavy use of sterile-sounding synthesizers and effects. It had a very futuristic sound, too. 'Panorama' t was way ahead of its time in 1980.
Tomy Terranova Been listening to them since 1978 ... never knew jerry was involved with the cars ! Imagine that this song does remind me of the spud boys .... learn something everyday !
This album included rare combinations of new wave, punk, techno, and even rockabilly. This elegantly bizarre video captures this rare artistry. The Cars' commercial success propelled them into the Hall of Fame, but this album represents the artistry that deserves to be remembered.
Ahhhhh the good ole days and possibly last hurrah of the US top 40 when bands such as Devo and Cars were considered popular unlike the nonsense that we are told is the top charts today.
Yes yes and yes. There has not been others like them. They had their very own classy style. No one has or had their uniqueness. If they were here today they would out do them all in every aspect.
RIP the two members of The Cars Ric Ocasek (March 23, 1944 - September 15, 2019), aged 75 Benjamin Orr (September 8, 1947 - October 3, 2000), aged 53 You both will always be remembered as legends.
Benjamin Orr - September 8 1947 Lakewood Ohio - Died October 3 2000 Ric Ocasek - March 23 1949 Baltimore Maryland David Robinson - April 2 1949 Woburn Massachusetts Greg Hawkes - October 22 1952 Fulton Maryland Elliot Easton - December 18 1953 Brooklyn New York Real men wear black!!! ~Dutch
For a while around 1979-1980, Ben Orr lived in Woburn for a short time. Used to see him walking his dogs on the lawn of the public library. David Robinson graduated from Woburn High a few years before my oldest brother and was taught the basics of drum playing in school by a friend of my brother. I've been a cars fan since the start, and also a fan of all the solo work. I wish we had gotten more solo work from Ben and even Greg. Elliot has worked on several projects besides his solo album. They are all top notch in the rock & roll world and deserve to be in the hall of fame.
I had no idea there was a video for this song. This album has grown on me over the years, but I still think it lacks the "warmth" that would give it a fuller sound. It always sounds like I'm listening to it on AM radio, and I own really audio equipment. RIP Ric and Ben. Great music.
hi stranger, if you’re reading this. i just wanna tell you that you matter and you’re important ❤ i know you are tired,, but please never give up. okay? i believe you can do it :) and i’m proud of you!! even though i dont know you. always think positive and ignore the negativity that surrounds you. focus on positive side and the things that makes you happy. you are doing great hun. 😙 let’s keep going. we can get through this together. you are worth it. sending virtual hugs to everyone 🥰🤗have a good sleep tonight. tell your loved ones that you love them. sweet dreams my dear~ always smile 😊
@@juanelevin1114 No kidding...their first album was widely considered "New Wave" by just about everybody. It was ahead of it's time...although listening to it now, it sounds more like rock n' roll with some synths here and there. Moving in Stereo was certainly unique.
Grew up with this record that my older cousins had! Love it 42 years later! Remember them playing this in the morning when I was off to school & they were in highschool gr.9
A video that co-opts pop culture to create a great Warholian video, common for Chuck Statler and Gerald V Casale. Cleverly set up shots and an air of roboticness make this one a keeper!
BL Mike thanks Mike, yea see what you think, I seen them at the Whiskey a go go and they blew me away, Isis Queen Julie will mesmerize you. I ve liked them since March, and a song called We are champions , make riot not war, and LA, harder than the CARS but so Blondie, Ramones influence. and Hell yea Avril Lavigne !
I gotta say it because every time I see the beginning I always think it (assuming I'm remembering correctly). David reminds me of the Child Catcher from the movie 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang'. The way he runs and the outfit he's wearing just reminds me of that character. Also, another observation: Benjamin lost his gloves sometime between the time he got in his car at the building and the time he arrived in the parking lot and got out. ")
Wish they had made more music when Ben was still here. At least this survived and their stuff has the ability to always sound fresh. I find it amazing how dated other peoples music can sound even after a shorter period of time. Kudos.
A very misunderstood and consequently underappreciated Cars album imho, but as good as any of the other LP's produced by Roy Thomas Baker for the band. He was perfect for them... that said, The Mutt Lange produced Heartbeat City was sensational. A legacy act without a doubt and worthy inductees of the RRHOF.
The guy in the elevator when Ric enters is producer Roy Thomas Baker. Back in the eighties I went to the wrestling to see Andre The Giant fight Big John Stud and seated in the seats in front of us were Roy Thomas Baker and the members of Motley Crue.
Always loved the album. Never saw video til recently. Loved their sounds. If they hadn't put it out there, they'd get dissed for not wanting to mix it up.

Videos werent even a thing in 1980 certainly not in '78 '79. So they werent "hiding" Ben.
@@bbigjohnson069 he wasn't blond
Elliot kills it!! Great guitar master.
I bought this album the day it was released in 1980. I have loved this album since that day. I will love this album forever!
One of my first music purchases as a teen. Got the cassette!
Got this for Christmas still one of my all time favorites!!!!!
Hehe you are old.
Same!…X
Ben and Elliot’s gesturing at 5:03- always cracks me up! And Ric at the end as he’s falling - LOL
Elliots guitar work is just stunning.
If I were stuck on an Island with a choice of only 5 songs, this would be 1 of them. I'd never get burnt out either. 43 years later & I still listen to this often... on loop. It's timeless. A classic. Never gets old. ❤️🔥

Especially the Three Stooges poke-in-the-eyes gesture
@@LaurieHeathStudioI thought it was the up yours gesture.
One of the best bands ever Long live the Cars
The best
This song was made 38 years ago and it sounded like the future. You know, even 38 years later it still sounds like the future.
Yes, a lot of late 70's and early 80's music sounded very futuristic. Have been going backwards ever since. Very strange but true.
1980 I just wanna be in your panorama! Am I gettin' through to you?
So right bro!

Finally!!!!
Because all band members are shown equally in all videos, right? Get a clue. Frontmen get the airtime. Never mind the fact Ric wrote all the songs.
"no deals with daddy-o". Man I miss these guys. RIP Ric.

Really underrated. Cars had such an original sound. I still listen to their music. First 3 albums were the best. Then they went too pop for my liking.
All the Cars albums were unique and different. No two sounded the same. That's what made them sooooo good.
love Elliott Easton, never got the praise he deserved
Ric... until forever, you'll know we'll always remember you
This album as a whole was less mainstream than the first two, much more new wave and with a Devo vibe, especially this track. Haven't heard this in years!
DEVO and The Cars were label mates, so the cross pollination is very evident and understandable. We are fortunate for this.
Jerry Casale from Devo directed the video.
@@peterlewis-z7g Wow ! I didn’t know that! Makes me believe even more strongly that DEVO belongs in the RRHOF if they are not already in!

Benjamin Orr and Ric Ocasek are alive in my parallel reality.
That bassline so good
the video's spy-vs.-spy premise is cool.it seems almost like a 70's spy film.these guys would seem right at home in something like that.
Interesting timing in the opening. Alternating 8/4 - 9/4. Once the verse starts, it's back to normal 4/4.
Every song on there albums was a hook and a hit. We all knew them word for word. Not many bands can say that bout there fan base.

Impossible no one can write like Ric it just can't be done
I always if the band would get new songs from Ric and think "WTH is THIS about?
Ahead of its time, this will never get old.
The one Cars album only the real fans own. Them getting " artistic freedom "
First album(cassette) I ever bought at the age of 12... Still know every lyric on the album. Thank you Ric, Ben, Elliott, Greg, and David.
Watching Ric fall out of that helicopter at 5:30 still cracks me the fuck up
This is one of the best music video's ever! All of them running round, it's well funny!

This song is a masterpiece..
It was a privilege for me to have lived in the 80's... 💎💎💎
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love the Cars videos.. cracks me up.
This is from my favorite Cars album. The songs on this album felt "darker" for some reason. "You Wear Those Eyes" is one of their best songs and most underrated.So is "Up And Down."
If you looked up "New Wave Music" in the dictionary, this band's picture should be there front and center!
+AK Tatiracanal I really liked Running to You as well ;)
"Darker" because it had more minor chords than the previous two.
Yes Up and Down is pure heaven. Always loved it!!!
Whatever you do "Dont Tell Me No!"
Agreed, some of the songs had a dark feel to them. I found many of the songs had a crystalline, icy kind of feeling, with the heavy use of sterile-sounding synthesizers and effects. It had a very futuristic sound, too. 'Panorama' t was way ahead of its time in 1980.
Watching 80s video is cool. It reminds me of when I watched MTV as a kid. That was back when MTV was still Music television.
Frequently shown on U68 back in the 80s. An underrated classic! R.I.P. Ric
I know it is nowhere near their best album, but for some reason, it is my personal favorite.
this video and Touch Go was produced by Jerry Casale of DEVO!
Tomy Terranova Been listening to them since 1978 ... never knew jerry was involved with the cars ! Imagine that this song does remind me of the spud boys .... learn something everyday !
Couldn't have been a better relationship Cars...Devo!
It's obvious.
Close thought it was Chuck Statler who did all of Devos early videos...Jerry directed 90s videos for the Foo Fighters...I could be wrong.
That's new wave right there
This album included rare combinations of new wave, punk, techno, and even rockabilly. This elegantly bizarre video captures this rare artistry.
The Cars' commercial success propelled them into the Hall of Fame, but this album represents the artistry that deserves to be remembered.
We who loved Spirit, ELP, Pink Floyd, Bowie, segued to The Cars- they complimented the rock we loved & grew up with.
Ahhhhh the good ole days and possibly last hurrah of the US top 40 when bands such as Devo and Cars were considered popular unlike the nonsense that we are told is the top charts today.

A very misunderstood and consequently underappreciated Cars album imho, but as good as any of the other LP's produced by Roy Thomas Baker for the band. He was perfect for them... that said, The Mutt Lange produced Heartbeat City was sensational. A legacy act without a doubt and worthy inductees of the RRHOF.
This is the first time in my life of hearing this song. I liked the video.
New wave ..... the Cars Best band Always Ben Orr
Miss U
my favorite Cars album
FUCK the RocknRoll hall of fame. TheCARS will live FOREVER.
+joe mama I still rather see them go in , along with Yes, Motley Crue, Blue Oyster Cult, Deep Purple, Iron Maiden and God knows who else
+Steve Dwyer (TheCARS1979) dont forget DEVO !, and DIO, GARY NUMAN , KRAFTWERK !, and BRAIN ENO !
Panorama sounds like , WE ARE DEVO !
Jerry Casale of DEVO directed this video.
I like at the end how Ric Ocasek just goes for the cannonball.
The guy in the elevator when Ric enters is producer Roy Thomas Baker. Back in the eighties I went to the wrestling to see Andre The Giant fight Big John Stud and seated in the seats in front of us were Roy Thomas Baker and the members of Motley Crue.
Always loved the album. Never saw video til recently. Loved their sounds. If they hadn't put it out there, they'd get dissed for not wanting to mix it up.
Pretty much the essence of new wave.
