Listening to The Cars on a Saturday afternoon
I was playing to Sandwich's catchy "Goodnight January", and I suddenly got the urge to listen to
The Cars, because the first verse of the song went:
The story of your life is in the key of B
If you remember all the things you said to me
When we were down in San Mateo
The Cars were playing on the radioIt's kind of sad that most people only know The Cars because of their hit single "Drive" when in fact, most of their music is really, really far from that. The band sounds a lot like
Adam Schlesinger pop songs, with a bit more new wave synth. In fact, Stacy's Mom contains
all sorts of references to The Cars.
