Subject: Motion in Motion

Written By: Miss Nostalgia on 02/14/06 at 11:56 am

Lyrics: I would do anything, hold onto you, I would do anything, hold on to you,
emotion in motion, magic in motion, motion in motion, with you.

Who sings that song & is "Motion in Motion" the name of the song?

I think this is what you're looking for:

Emotion In Motion
by Ric Ocasek

I would do anything to hold on to you
Just about anything until you pull through
I'd hold on to you 'til the stars no longer wink
I'd hold on to you 'til you figure out
Just what to think, 'cos

You're emotion in motion
My magical potion
You're emotion in motion
To me

I would go anywhere to meet up with you
Just about anywhere for one rendezvous
I'd hold on to you 'til the mountains crumble flat
I'd hold on to you 'til you figure out
Just where you're at

You're emotion in motion
My magical potion
You're emotion in motion
To me

I would do anything to hold on to you
Just about anything that you want me to
I'd hold on to you 'til you take it all in stride
I'd hold on to you 'til you want to stay here
By my side

You're emotion in motion
My magical potion
You're emotion in motion
To me
(repeat three times to the end)

Anyway, it seem Benjamin Orr (who died in 2000) sang the vocals on 'Drive', which received a lot of publicity in the UK, when it was used as a backing in a tragic documentary showing the plight of countless starving Ethiopians. Bob Geldof saw this documentary, and Band Aid/Live Aid was the result.



Whenever I hear that song I picture that video.  I thought though that the news report came first and then Cars re-released the song.  Could be wrong though
