Editorial Review: Description: Coming off the 1981 hit album and single SHAKE IT UP, the Cars took the next few years off to pursue other areas of interest (Ric Ocasek released his '82 solo debut, BEATITUDE) and record it's follow-up. Buoyed by the high-gloss productionsheen of Robert John "Mutt" Lange, HEARTBEAT CITY yielded such hit singles/videos as the the moody, transcendent "Drive", the poppy, almost ELO-like "Magic", and "You Might Think", which hews closest to the band's previous work. Though theband peaked artistically in 1980 with PANORAMA, this was the Cars' commercial pinnacle. Both "You Might Think" and "Magic" were anthems for the summer of 1984, while "Hello Again"showed that the band could still be quirky and achieve chart success. Customer Reviews

 Rating: - EVERY TRACK IS EXCELLENT !TWO WORDS - BUY IT ! EVER BOUGHT AN ALBUM OR CD ON THE STRENGTH OF A COUPLE OF HITS FROM THE BAND,ONLY TO BE DISAPPOINTED THAT THERE ARE SOME STINKERS IN-BETWEEN ? WELL....YOU( DON'T )HAVE TO WORRY WITH THIS C.D!....EVERY TRACK ON IT IS EXCELLENT, HONESTLY !......BUY THIS LITTLE TREASURE, IF YOU LIKE 80'S SYNTH MUSIC.....IT'S SUPERBLY CRAFTED POP , THE PRODUCTION VALUES - SOUND MIX ( LISTEN TO IT WITH HEADPHONES )CATCHY LYRICS & FOR ME THE TRACKLISTING IS PERFECT, AS EACH SONG NICELY FOLLOWS ON FROM ONE ANOTHER. SO YOU TEND TO WANT TO LISTEN TO THE WHOLE C.D IN MY PERSONAL TOP 10 FOR MOST ENJOYABLE TO LISTEN TO YES,(IT IS THAT GOOD)A PERFECT PEACE OF MAGIC.........11 OUT OF 10 ! Rating: - Ugly music..........NO!This is one if not the best album that came out of the dire 80's music. From the first heart stopping song to the last it's BRILLIANT.Play it loud **** the neighbours! This album? Should now be played track by track on radio 2, it is sooooo good. Buy it please? You will not be disappointed, trust me...... Rating: - the best CD I ownI remember exactly where and when I heard "Heartbeat City" for the first time. I was in the Crest Hotel in Basildon, in beautiful Essex, early one crummy morning in October 1985. The title song had just come out as a single, as the Cars' follow-up to the Live Aid theme tune "Drive". The intro started playing. And it was completely stunning. Shivers went down my spine as I stopped what I was doing. I dropped my toothbrush. I forgot my name. I bought the album. I wore it out. I bought another one. I wore that out. I bought a CD. I wore that out too. I've now bought it four times... There isn't a weak song on it. It's so good it hurts... |
