Biografia

Por: Argeu California

O The Cars foi a banda de New Wave de maior
sucesso no final dos anos 70, conquistaram vários
álbuns de platina e emplacaram diversos singles
entre os top 40.

Ela foi formada em Boston em 1976
com Ric Ocasek na guitarra e vocais, Benjamin Orr no baixo e vocais,
Greg Hawkes nos teclados, Elliot Easton na guitarra e
David Robinson na batera.

Os seus maiores sucessos nos EUA foram
My Best Friend’s Girl e Just What I Needed.

No Brasil eles fizeram sucesso com as músicas
do álbum Heartbeat City de 1984,
entre elas You Might Think, Magic, Hello Again e Drive.

O que ajudou além do som maneiro foram
os video-clips bem produzidos que se
tornaram carros-chefe da MTV na época.

The Cars, Retorno

Em julho de 2010, devido a uma
foto divulgada no site de relacionamentos Facebook,
rumores apontavam a volta da banda em sua formação original,
menos claro, Benjamin Orr, que faleceu de câncer pancreático
em 3 de Outubro de 2000.

Tal rumor fora confirmado
e a banda já inclusive, anunciou um novo album para 2011.

    Ric is a weird lookin dude. but very talented. something about them seems so understated which makes them even better in my opinion

    @MoshNChurch: As you said, this is a public place. You should expect all kinds of people here, including my own kind. -- I suppose the word "sucks" was uncalled for. It isn't constructive and it's just plain stupid. I originally said that The Cars are boring, musically and especially lyrically. I don't hate them, but I don't like them either. I don't just go to random pages and spew hate. This is a band I know from when I was a child. I've decided to give some of their songs a listen, and concluded that they're not my thing. A tiny piece of my mind on a public page shouldn't get so much attention, even more so when it's obvious that I'm absolutely subjective in my remarks. Nevertheless, I recognize my harsh words, and I hereby apologize to all of you who felt insulted by them.

    @hauzzer i understand, but coming to a public forum to express yr opinion? it just doesn't make much sense to me. i don't go to a band i dislike's page to express my opinion. people like their music for a reason, saying it 'sucks' is just rude.

    'Shake it up' is also funky.

    @MoshNChurch: Because I like to give every band a fair chance before judging them. I gave The Cars a chance, and I didn't like them. It's my taste and my point of view, neither of which I'm forcing on anyone here; just voicing them.

    @hauzzer why even comment on something you don't like? do something better with your time. personally, i think the cars have been and still are incredible. i grew up on their music, and i'm absolutely in love with them. my favourite album will always be candy-o. :)

    Why does it say there's more than one band with this name and then only lists the 80s band?

    @TheDarkSide73: Hmm.. No.. I'd say the band sucks. It's all a mater of perspective and taste.
