@evenbid I had the pleasure of meeting Noelle back in Atlanta, GA @ The Masquerade. During that time I was told about this song and the fact that Ric Ocasek from The Cars was helping them with production/recording. He also did this for Weezer and quite a few other bands. It was quite good to see them get a single on MTV with "Out Here All Night" not long after. They are a great live band and good people. If they recorded this, it was probably for Ric.
Sadly I don't think that will ever happen. Dustin Hengst, sadly passed away towards the end of 2011. I know Noelle LeBlanc is currently in another band called "The Organ Beats" and has just recently released a solo album. Give The Organ Beats a listen, if you haven't already. I highly recommend their second album Goldenheart, which you can listen to free of charge on their bandcamp. Mike Woods has also continued to make music after the split, he released a very beautiful song called "Pillow" in tribute to Dustin at the time of his death. As for Vazquez, I don't know what he is doing, but I know he was alive and kicking at the time of Dustin's death. As for this song, it was released on a tribute album for The Cars. Damone were a Boston based band as were The Cars, so they were asked to do a cover of their favourite The Cars song for the album. So if you want this song, your best bet is to look up that album. I am not sure what it is called though, I am sorry to say.
Damone is pretty damn good, i like noelle's side project stuff a lot too. check my fav vids. I had her band 'the organ beats' play in my basement at an 80s party. Noelle fucking ROCKS
She has a great voice, and it's a good cover, but idk, her voice just isn't very distinct. It sounds too much like mainstream female singers like the chick from Paramore.
This is EASILY the best cover of this song.
Noelle LeBlanc is criminally underrated.
Pissed this isn’t on Spotify
Well done.

Having done a cover of this for many years, this is the best I have heard!!!!
This is damn good.
Super talented drummer….😢
I like the speed of this version; makes the tune more danceable.
Great update to a CLASSIC song...great job! Cheers
I wish this band would reunite. Is this song, like, not on any of their albums?

Nice!
:55 hey, I took a picture just like that... wait a minute... that IS my picture!
This band flat rocks.

Love this cover! Really good group,kinda reminds me of Joan Jett;)
Pretty good version of this cover. A little fast but I know that is how you meant it. sounds really really good though. great job
This is refreshing in comparison to the majority of the slide show videos. It almost seems as if... *gasp*... effort might have been involved!
i really want to find this song to download anyone know where i can do that?
Awsome share:)
Thank you SexyGreenEyes49!
Nice post zerosum318

Roughly 523.5% better than the cover done by "The Last Year"

Then DON'T
Not. Haley and Noelle are very disinguishable. In my opinion.
we're u screwing with someone while doing this recording? you breath is heavy hahaha.

better than original, bros u''re avesome!!!!!!!!!!!!
