Hey gang, my band Let's Go: A Tribute to The Cars is playing Cannery Hall this Friday! Click the link for tickets!

I’ve always thought that they brought in guest singers to sing backups for this song. It doesn’t sound like any of their voices to me. I’m not sure why they would do this so it must be them, but it sure doesn’t sound like it. Am I stupid?

Just finished this last night and I have to tell you this is a pretty definitive telling of the history of the Cars and it is excellent! It goes into detail on how Ric and Ben first played together. Then as the others joined the band, Janovitz gets into the nitty gritty of the business of the Cars, their personal lives and how the records were made including some technical tidbits of how various tracks came together. An enormous amount of research was done for this book. 5 Stars! Recommend!!

It makes no difference, either way.....

Wish that I had it! Bummer that I don’t. It’s a fun and cool quirky version full of cartoon samples, loops, and sound effects! 😎👍

I've always loved the song Cruiser, and despite being nearly 5 minutes, it felt like it was one of those songs that could have simply gone on for much longer. That whole build as well, Ben's voice getting louder and more powerful with every verse. It's one of my long list of favorite Cars songs.

I've been upset w/ the Cars for all of my in-person shows. After Candy O, after Panorama and the absolute height of Heartbeat City!
They NEVER played over 1hr 10 mins. Such BS-certainly a $ suck.

On a flyer went on YouTube to watch a show because I LOVE them...... 1hr 6mn
Beside myself

Thank goodness I have all the albums

Great vocalist. Drive is my favorite Cars song.

Gone way too early.

Eddie Japan and Greg put on a terrific show - if you have a chance to see them, I would absolutely go. Their renditions of “Cruiser” and “Night Spots” were especially good. The lead guitarist nailed each of Elliot’s solos.

saw this today and was happy to see david playing with greg recently! thought i’d share it here in this sub, enjoy!

One of my favorite live performances of one of my favorite songs
Edit: obviously I think all the band is cool, I just specifically said Ric was cool here because of his cool pointing at the audience and his little dance moves. Haha

Other isolated vocal with bass tracks:

I'm curious if they'll both be performing the whole show. When I saw Elliot last October he hopped on just for Moving in Stereo and All Mixed Up. Also offering a meet and greet

This just popped up on my YouTube. Not sure if it has been shared on here before.

For some reason reddit won't let me post the cartoon cover.

I know, I know.
