What’s that slow, pretty Cars’ song with Rik’s supermodel girlfriend in the video?  
I thought it was “Tonight, She Comes,” but that’s not it.

Are you thinking of “Drive”?

I can’t remember if that was Paulina in the video or not, though. 😕

I believe you’re thinking of ‘Drive’.

Slow, pretty?

Is it possibly “Drive”? I can’t confirm this, never seen the video.

Yes! That’s it, thanks. . . . in a similiar vein, what’s that cute, girly-voiced, rap-y Tom Tom Club song? It’s not Wordy Rappinghood.
