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

    When did the big change happen?

    He's barely in the band

    The Ben Orr guy did most of the writing and singing I think

    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.
