    Looks like the studio track isn’t on here; too bad. It’s definitely better than this live take, although they did OK here too. The song is good enough that it’s still good even if not done perfectly.

    When the (great) studio track came on the radio, I thought it sounded like the Cars, and guessed it might be the New Cars… and of course it is! :-)

    Since when did Bob Costas pick up the bass? Someone should tell the drummer he missed the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory audition….LOL

    Btw, this drummer and bassist are pretty darn good too! Great song!

    Oh and btw, why not just keep Todd because he adds some energy and ruggedness, while adding a bit of a smoother touch to handle the Orr songs! Elliot and Gregg are very electric and so too is Todd, but they still need that Orr and Ocasek type of personality to offset all of the fireworks. It would be a wonderful tribute to Ben and all of the bands earlier success. And it would be great for their legions of fans. And David Robinson would be a great spark too because he is a world-class drummer!

    You guys are darn right! This is great, old fashion Rock & Roll, the way it should be! It’s a lot of fun and wonderful to listen to and tap your feet to! I’m quite impressed and would buy this record in a minute. The kind of music i love. Kudos Guys! They have a lot of hits in them. I have said some things about Todd not being a good fit, but that’s only because i know they still need that Ocasek or Orr influence to make this complete. I’m sticking with my belief, but still VERY happy for them!

    Great song…really sounds like another original The Cars song. While song dis the new lineup, I think they sound great and are helping keep the great catalogue of Cars songs alive and kicking. Rock on.

    I missed it, but the studio cut is TIGHTER, they rushed to get the song in under the show’s schedule it looks like

    It’s typical upload snafu on YouTube, some vids are better digital material and upload without an issue. Analog to digital adds even more issues

    i don’t think it’s a lip sync, if you look at craig before the band plays his words are off, too. it’s the video, not todd.
