Default The Cars - underrated?

I’ll throw the album “Shake It Up” out there and you have hits but also songs like “Dream Away” and “Cruiser” that are fantastic.

I'll agree, but then I'm a bit nostalgic. They came on big during my college days. Good times.

Great topic!!
The Cars were Top-40 kings for quite a number of years, but many of their somewhat deeper cuts are really cool, too. Some of my fav's are the somber tunes 'All Mixed Up,' 'Don't Go To Pieces,' 'Double Life' and 'Since You're Gone' (which got a decent amount of airplay), plus the more upbeat 'Don't Cha Stop.'

Not a fan of The Cars. The song Cars is better than any song by The Cars.

I like The Cars. Not all their songs, but most. My sister used to get pissed at me when I would steal her copy of The Cars first album.

Some solid pop/rock hits, I would not call them a great group but very good. Bye Bye Love probably my favorite.

Thanks for posting that link...I forgot how much I enjoyed the music videos from that era...on to Thomas Dolby, David Byrne and A Flock of Seagulls.
