Wow. Not sure what to make of this. An interesting phase in Ben's musical evolution. Can't say that I love it, although the more I listen to it, the more Ben's vocal performance pulls me in. I just love his voice. I am glad he and Ric changed gears, though.
Linkin Park oughta cover this song. Wouldn't that be a hoot? Oh, and finally some Ben Orr leads -which are easily recognizable, despite the excellent harmonies, to me.
I wonder if the "Lincoln Park" in Cleveland had anything to do with this song. (Like Ben,I grew up there) It's probably not that uncommon a name for a park, but still since Ric and Ben spent some time in Cleveland together it makes me wonder.
@girlmusic2remember well i'll clear it up for you at least on this track.... it's most definitely ben singing lead. i remember being surprised when i found out how many songs ben sang on... for some reason i just used to think ric sang everything.
@girlmusic2remember Yeah tell me about it! I was and am a Cars fan from way back and have and sometimes do( Lol! ) have trouble who is singing lead on what but hey it's fun! But good call, they do have similar voices Eeirely so at times.

The only song on the LP not written by Ocasek, and it's the one that sounds most like The Cars!

I think sometimes Ben and Ric sounded so much alike, it's hard to tell who is singing what!
