    Who ever mixed that is a genius. The bass dropped low. The synth. One of the best live versions of any song I have ever heard. Blown away 😮😮😮😮😮😮

    His voice is stronger, more nuanced, perfect. So many rockers lose their range and clarity. He is fantastic.

      It's as iconic as the opening bars of Beethoven's 5th symphony: repeats throughout. Same with the bassline. Two great rhythms in one.

    Storytime: First time I ever seen the official video...I was about 6 years old. It was 3 in the morning, give or take. I don't know if I was drawn to the music or what...but I recall entering the pitch black kitchen and entering the well lit living room where "Cars" was playing. I have no idea where my parents were, or why the TV and lights were on, or why is was set to the video channel (which was brand new at the time) I also am unsure of what happened after the video, or seeing ANYBODY in particular, but the hard synth line had me in its deadlights and I've been hooked on synth keyboards ever since.

    Es uno de mis temas favoritos, me recuerda a inicios de los 80s, al punto que cuando compre mi primer coche, puse esa canción y fue la primera canción que lo escuche en mi Renault nuevo.
