You actually need to hear it on the alnum... from "Bye Bye Love" it transitions to "Moving In Stereo" and then to "All Mixed Up", which is one of my favorite Cars songs. That amazing experience of discovery as you unwrap the plastic from an album, carefully remove the disk from the sleeve, gently place it on the turntable, and then sit back to take a first listen -- Track 1 on Side 1 through Track 9 on Side 2 -- while you read the liner notes is one that is totally missed by the youth of today. I can remember spending hours with friends listening to and discussing each track -- air drumming/guitaring/keyboarding all the while. When this album came out, we didn't have video games or smart phones or anything like that... we had music, real music, and it was a blessing. 1978 was an amazing year for music... The Cars (The Cars), Parallel Lines by Blondie, Pieces of Eight by Styx, Who Are You by The Who, Double Vision by Foreigner, Darkness on the Edge of Town by Bruce, Jazz by Queen, Son of a Son of Sailor by Jimmy, Champagne Jame by ARS, Don't Look Back by Boston, Outlandos D'Amour by the Police, and many others... all lifelines that saved us from that "thing" called disco and kept us safe when urban cowboys started taking over the radios... until we were rescued by Pat Benatar, REM, and U2 (I'm actually looking through my cassette tape collection from back then as I write this). You know how you guys do the whole movie thing? Have you ever thought about doing an album thing? I am sure you would get a lot of folks providing lists of albums you need to react to as you listen from start to finish. Just a thought. Keep it up, we are loving your reactions... and we are still waiting for "Nightswimming", "Find the River", and "We All Go Back to Where We Belong" by REM... the latter being their last released single in 2011. And oh, for Female Fridays, we need "Hammer and a Nail" by Indigo Girls. You'll understand when you hear it and listen to the lyrics...

@@Chris.Davis.2 I think a lot of us would like to go back life seemed more simple and carefree could always find something to do even if it was simply flying frisbee listening to music in the park.

Thanks for reacting to the Cars again! This was sung by the late, great Benjamin Orr. Ric Ocasek was the other singer of the Cars, but Benjamin Orr was always my favorite. This band is legendary, and their song catalog is amazing!

Right when it ended I could hear MOVING IN STEREO starting up in my head. It follows Bye Bye Love on the album.

Happy memory. This is the first Cars song I learned on the drums way way back then in the late 70’s as a goofy teenager 🤘

This debut changed the pop-rock sound with tight everything. The Knack and countless others followed their lead.

The whole album kicks ass! I can’t even begin to tell you how many times I’ve heard this entire thing, driving around town on the weekends in high school and then college.

Ben Orr on Lead Vocals...and also guitarist Elliot Easton, truly underrated, played most of this record with the one guitar he could afford. When it became a massive hit and one of the great debut albums of all time, he would be able to afford many many more. Of course Ric Ocasek wrote it, as he did almost everything else.

This song sparks memories of Saturday night, me cruising along on the Sunset Strip, my car packed with girlfriends, sunroof open and singing at the top of our lungs, just having a great time. What a fun memory, thank you.

Such a memory trigger for me. My mom used to play that song on her portable cassette player when it came out. The Cars have been one of her very favorite bands, which became one of mine also. GREAT choice!!

So awesome. Bye Bye Love is my favorite Cars song. Sung by the amazing Ben Orr. I love the back and forth between the lead guitar and the amazing electric piano at the end. Such a great arrangement and creative rock 'n roll instrumentation.

I love it when the tracks are mixed together. I have the CD that they include the demo versions of these songs and they are more raw and even more passionate than their debut album. What an absolute treat that Electra signed them and let them stand out from the line-up of artists on their roster.
