Hansje Ravesteijn ; are you kidding ? This is a phenomenal song. Good songs never gets old. I have it on a ”Super Jets” collection album. I’ve even ripped it into my phone so I can listen to it whenever I want. It always gets me in a fantastically good mood. I love it.
Was a DJ in the 80' in eastern Canada... And that song work great at that time to have the people up and dancing. Eventually rank no.18 on Canadian chart. Thanks for sharing. Very much appreciated. 💃
This lady has the sexiest voice in the world. I've been looking for this song for years, just found it now. wow I'm very surprised this never went number 1, what a rockin tune. and now that I ve seen the woman behind the voice, wow what a hottie!!
My all time favorite - compleatly awsome! We actually did a danish version for our school comedy back in 1980 in Denmark. So cool to hear it again and many thanks Hansje - you are a wondeful personallity and hope you're doing well! ;)
thank you very much. I remember seeing this on Danish Television way back. But the guy with the tie on the edge of the stage has somehow stuck in my memory LOL
And still do! It was on my brothers 80s pop compilation of artist called radioactive by ktel. Played this song a million times!! Still Can’t find it on Spotify
Until tonight I didn't even know Hansie was German - I had this on a K-Tel collection ("Street Wave"), and I thought they were either American or Canadian...
That reminds me of two other songs: "Give Me Hope, Johanna" by Eddie Grant (which, quelle surprise was banned by South African radio) and "Joanna" by Kool and the Gang.
The road is long Mountains are high You're speeding me up Up in the sky Got to get you down on the ground Don't stop baby Loving you like an automobile The harder you ride the better I feel Dont run out of gas take a deep breath Uuuuuhhh!!! Come on honey Were gonna really ride it (off the road) Were gonna move and hide it Were gonna slip N slide in In the automobile Were gonna really ride it (off the road) Were gonna move and hide it Were gonna slip N slide in In the automobile Take the highway Move real fast Youre driving me crazy Ill do the rest Its driving me low Slowing me deep Dont stop baby Loving you like an automobile The harder you ride the better I feel Don't run out of gas take a deep breath Uuuuhh!!! Come on honey! Were gonna really ride it (off the road) Were gonna move and hide it Were gonna slip N slide in In the automobile Were gonna really ride it (off the road) Were gonna move and hide it Were gonna slip N slide in In the automobile Go go go honey! Love the horn I like the sound Your slippin all over Racing around Dont use the break For heavans sake! Dont stop baby Loving you like an automobile The harder you ride the better I feel Don't run out of gas take a deep breath Uuuuhhh!! Faster honey! Were gonna really ride it (off the road) Were gonna move and hide it Were gonna slip N slide in In the automobile Were gonna really ride it (off the road) Were gonna move and hide it Were gonna slip N slide in In the automobile

Hansje Ravesteiin: Such a bummer this great song Bubbled Under the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 109. Should’ve been a hit here in the States.

Bubbled Under the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 at No. 109 for two weeks in 1980. Great song, should’ve been a hit here in the States.
Love the track -- Had no idea a video to this even existed...
Huge thanks for posting!!
Great piece of glammy 70's pop. The video got played on the Australian TV show Countdown. A song to be proud of Hansje!

Klasse nummer.

He reminds me of Peter Sellers. :)
Loved this song when it came out, had it on a cassette with other artists on it, which were popular back then.
"Automobile" charted U.S. #109 on Billboard's "Bubbling Under" Hot 100 chart in January 1980. Great song!!! Extremely catchy.
This is truly amazing Rock N Roll music!
She is awesome
I remember this as one of my first love of music
Fucking loved this song!
And still do! It was on my brothers 80s pop compilation of artist called radioactive by ktel. Played this song a million times!! Still

Heb Hansje gisteren bij the voice gezien en snap nog steeds heel goed dat ik verliefd op haar was!
Until tonight I didn't even know Hansie was German - I had this on a K-Tel collection ("Street Wave"), and I thought they were either American or Canadian...

Ja klopt.......lang geleden... :)
I used to work in radio. I used to play this as my motivation tune when I would start at 0600 on Saturdays.
Is this synth riff what inspired Sigue Sigue Sputnik's Love Missile F-11?
Das geht ja richtig ab!!
That reminds me of two other songs: "Give Me Hope, Johanna" by Eddie Grant (which, quelle surprise was banned by South African radio) and "Joanna" by Kool and the Gang.
De Nederlandse Blondie, deze Hansje (Ravesteijn), kan ik me herinneren.
Patrick bateman is a great drummer.
In fact it's Callie Ramsay.
Just listening to Automobile on one of my 8 tracks. Had to stop and google Hansie.
George Harrison what is life
naughty little sister of Jerney Kaagman (Earth And Fire)
Yes I understand that... As it would literally mean "Johnny" in English, which has that mean, amongst other meanings...
My dad made this song
what are the lyrics?
We wrote the lerics together
The road is long
Mountains are high
You're speeding me up
Up in the sky
Got to get you down on the ground
Don't stop baby
Loving you like an automobile
The harder you ride the better I feel
Dont run out of gas take a deep breath
Uuuuuhhh!!!
Come on honey
Were gonna really ride it (off the road)
Were gonna move and hide it
Were gonna slip N slide in
In the automobile
Were gonna really ride it (off the road)
Were gonna move and hide it
Were gonna slip N slide in
In the automobile
Take the highway
Move real fast
Youre driving me crazy
Ill do the rest
Its driving me low
Slowing me deep
Dont stop baby
Loving you like an automobile
The harder you ride the better I feel
Don't run out of gas take a deep breath
Uuuuhh!!!
Come on honey!
Were gonna really ride it (off the road)
Were gonna move and hide it
Were gonna slip N slide in
In the automobile
Were gonna really ride it (off the road)
Were gonna move and hide it
Were gonna slip N slide in
In the automobile
Go go go honey!
Love the horn
I like the sound
Your slippin all over
Racing around
Dont use the break
For heavans sake!
Dont stop baby
Loving you like an automobile
The harder you ride the better I feel
Don't run out of gas take a deep breath
Uuuuhhh!!
Faster honey!
Were gonna really ride it (off the road)
Were gonna move and hide it
Were gonna slip N slide in
In the automobile
Were gonna really ride it (off the road)
Were gonna move and hide it
Were gonna slip N slide in
In the automobile
