THE CARS

Hello and welcome back.... Fronted by Ric Ocasek, the U.S band "The Cars" were a huge part of the 80s.
Standing beside Ric was "Benjamin Orr" (lead vocals, bass) who in sadly died in year 2000 from cancer.
Benjamin was the voice behind hits like "Just what I needed", "Lets Go" & "Drive"
Other band members included Elliot Easton (guitars), Greg Hawkes (Synths) & David Robinson (drums).

The Cars released 3 albums in the 80s, those being "Shake It Up(1981)", "Heartbeat City(1984)" & "Door to Door(1987)".
Door to Door was the last to feature Benjamin Orr, before his death. There would not be another Cars studio album until the 2011 release of Move Like This.

I was a huge fan of The Cars mainly because the of the various synthesizer sounds with nearly every song sounding different and refreshing.

The Cars belted out 80s hits like "Shake it up", "Since your Gone", "Hello Again", "Magic", "Drive", "You Might Think", "Its Not The Night" & "Heartbeat city".
My Favorite song would have to be "You are the Girl", with its melodic synths and lush vocals its a song I never get sick of hearing, It also reminds me of a girl I once knew when I was at school at that time & yes she was the girl of my dreams....But Shhhh, don't tell anyone. :)

COMMODORES - nightshift (lost hit)

Hello and welcome back....After the death in 1984 of both R&B singers "Jackie Wilson" & "Marvin Gaye", A band called the Commodore's (missing Lionel Richie) released the tribute song "Nightshift" back in 1985.
This song reach No3 in the U.S music charts.

For me, this song is smooth & classy with meaningful lyrics, a true classic of the 80s.
Something that both Jackie and Marvin would be proud of.

MACHINATIONS - cars & planes (club mix)

Hello and welcome back..... I gave up waiting for this song to make it to Youtube so it uploaded it myself. This is one of my most faviourite songs of the 80s.
Australian band "Machinations" released the song "Cars & Planes" back in 1989.
Sorry for the crap video, I just wanted to get the song live so I found some photos of my car I used to own, affectionately know as "Betsy" (A 1992 KH Ford Laser).
The song was recorded from tape but the sound quality is good :).
Enjoy a very rare song
