With all their hits coming on Electra,
this US, New Wave group – in 78, entered the UK charts,
when ‘My Best Friend’s Girl’ saw The Cars,
arrive in the Top 3 – winning hearts.
In 79, ‘Just What I Needed’, at No.17,
was the next hit to follow on.
And still in 79, ‘Let’s Go’ made No.51.
And at No.37, in 82, came ‘Since You’re Gone’.
In 84, came another big hit,
when ‘Drive’ raced up to the Top 5.
The Cars also made No.4, with gold-selling ‘Drive’,
the year after, in 85.
Thank You for the brilliant music
R.I.P. Ric Ocasek Aged 75.
