Produktbeschreibungen
Ihre Mischung aus New-Wave-Experimenten und traditionellem Rock bescherte den Cars in den späten Siebzigern und frühen Achtzigern beinahe allgegenwärtige Radio-Präsenz. Ric Ocasek fing mit seiner oft sprunghaften, ambivalenten und gleichzeitig wunderbar poppigen Musik den Zeitgeist für jene Leute ein, denen die Talking Heads nicht viel bedeuteten. Greatest Hits startet mit einer der zeitlos großartigen Singles, "Just What I Needed", und schlängelt sich dann durch die Singles der sieben folgenden Jahre, inklusive des damals brandneuen "Tonight She Comes". Greatest Hits ist eine, sagen wir mal, gutgeölte Spaßmaschine. --Rickey Wright

Audio
Mit schnittigen Pop-Songs und polierten Arrangements bremsten die Cars in der 80er Jahre die Konkurrenz aus. Dieser Silberdiskus mit Stücken wie Drive und You Might Think ist PS-Pop à la carte.

Review by Greg Prato
The Cars were responsible for some of rock's most recognizable radio hits by the mid-'80s, so when the band took an extended break after their successful tour for Heartbeat City, 1985's Greatest Hits was assembled. Mixed in with the familiar selections was a brand-new track, the playful "Tonight She Comes" (which became a Top Ten hit), as well as a remix of the overlooked "Shake It Up" ballad "I'm Not the One." And while most of the expected hits are represented ("Just What I Needed," "Let's Go," "Drive," "Shake It Up," etc.), some of the selections prove questionable — why was the title track from Heartbeat City (an unsuccessful single) included instead of the 1984 Top 20 hit "Hello Again"? Other missing radio staples include "You're All I've Got Tonight," "It's All I Can Do," and the title track from Candy-O, which would have made the collection definitive (all are included on the more extensive Just What I Needed: The Cars Anthology from 1995). But for the casual fan, Greatest Hits will do the trick.The Cars Greatest Hits DCC GOLD CD NEU OVP Sealed GZS-1123ProduktinformationAudio CD ( 2000) Anzahl Disks/Tonträger: 1 Format: Gold CD Label: Dcc Tracks Just What I Needed (3:44)Since You're Gone (3:30)You Might Think (3:04) Good Times Roll (3:44)Touch And Go (4:55)Drive (3:55)Tonight She Comes (3:52)My Best Friend's Girl (3:40)Heartbeat City (4:31)Let's Go (3:32)I'm Not The One (4:07)Magic (3:57)Shake It Up (3:35) ProduktbeschreibungenIhre Mischung aus New-Wave-Experimenten und traditionellem Rock bescherte den Cars in den späten Siebzigern und frühen Achtzigern beinahe allgegenwärtige Radio-Präsenz.
