    I thought Ric Ocasek was the lead singer of The Cars?

    When did the big change happen?

    He's barely in the band

    Ric wrote almost everything, but I think Ben had the better voice
    The four kings of EMI are sitting stately on the floor
    There are birds out on the sidewalk
    And a valet at the door

    True, he didn't look "new wave" enough.
