The Cars and The New Cars song discography
|
The Cars was an alternative rock and pop group lead by Ric Ocasek and Benjamin Orr. The greatest hit by The Cars was Drive, a 1984 number one song featuring Benjamin Orr as lead singer. Drive was the only number one song by The Cars, and the only hit song sung by Benjamin Orr. Other than Drive, most songs were sung by Ric Ocasek.
In rock music, The Cars had five number one songs from the inception of the rock charts. The biggest was 1984 rock number one song You Might Think.
|
|
However, Just What I Needed, My Best Friend's Girl, You're All I've Got Tonight, Good Times Roll, and Bye Bye Love each were heavily played on rock stations, and could have been additional number one songs.
In 2005, original members of The Cars guitar player Elliot Easton and keyboard player Greg Hawkes joined with Todd Rundgren and others to form The New Cars. The New Cars revived The Cars and created new music.
