Your David Byrne/Tom Tom Club/Jerry Harrison plan sounds good to me, JohnBckWLD. Having it as a supplemental poll during Talking Heads week makes sense, and combining them all lets me vote for “Genius of Love.” I’m no slave to alphabetical order!

And I know just enough about the Cars to add votes to a bunch of popular favorites:

  1. Magic
  2. Let the Good Times Roll
  3. You’re All I’ve Got Tonight
  4. Just What I Needed
  5. Shake It Up
  6. My Best Friend’s Girl
22
  1. Hello Again
  2. Tonight She Comes
  3. You Might Think
  4. Drive
  5. I’m Not the One
  6. Moving in Stereo
23

JohnBck rules! :slight_smile:

The Cars debut album is one of the Best ever. Guitar driven, with two songwriters and two singers.

  1. You’re all I’ve got tonight (Ocasek)
  2. Bye Bye Love->
  3. Movin in Stereo->
  4. All Mixed Up (Orr)
  5. Candy O (Ocasek) (second album)
24

I’m going to join the dogpile on “My Best Friend’s Girl.” Hundreds of plays later, I still love that tune.

Other ones:

  1. Tonight She Comes
  2. You Might Think
  3. Let the Good Times Roll
  4. You’re All I’ve Got Tonight
  5. Shake It Up
25

In the proud tradition of Ludovic’s rules for voting, i.e. you dont have to actually LIKE 6 songs to vote, just to have heard at least 6, I present yet another incomplete poll based on the fact that not all Cars songs are worthy of mention:

  1. Just what I Needed – am I the only person who thinks that song sounds a little like the Police?
  2. Bye Bye Love
  3. Lets go
  4. movin in stereo
26

Yay, a “C” band I’ve actually heard of!

Anyway:

  1. Magic
  2. Since You’re Gone
  3. My Best Friend’s Girl
  4. Dangerous Type
  5. Drive
  6. Just What I Needed
