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.

First 2 albums were very good, after that I never cared for them.

I’d say probably a tad over rated. Hot just when MTV was firing up and they used the video realm well. Don’t think their stuff has held up very well.

Love The Cars. Definitely underrated, especially with the majority of today's music being absolute crap. Bands these days should listen to the classics instead of creating garbage that is in no way listenable.
RIP Ric & Ben.

That I can agree with, but, at the same time, I remember when my parents and the older generation thought the same about my/our music.

I find with today's sound boxes and all sorts of other tricks to make them sound good, there certainly isn't the talent that there once was, but then again, the radio stations seem to be pushed to play this "modern" music instead of music that is played with some talent required. Thank god, for me anyways, there are still some solid rock music stations around.

I love what Sully Erna (Godsmack) is doing here with these kids. (What an unforgettable experience) Hopefully talent where people actually play instruments makes a comeback.

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.

An actual band able to create good music ...The Cars were great during their heyday.

Music now - if you want to be generous and call it that, is painful to listen to and completely talentless.

... the majority of modern "artists" cannot sing or even play an instrument

What happened??? lol
