HAPPY 40TH TO THE CARS' HEARTBEAT CITY!
Hey all, just to put it out there, I will go back to posting about KOSA soon. I just wanted to take a moment to talk about one of my favorite albums, which is turning the big four-zero this year.
Everybody has that album. You know the one. The one that resonates with you, really hits you in a special place and makes you want to re-experience it over and over again.
For me, The Cars' 1984 offering Heartbeat City is that album.
The Cars are certainly a favorite of mine. In fact, they're probably my favorite full stop. Much of my look is based on that of Ric Ocasek and Benjamin Orr. That is, if I can dress like them, and more often than not I just pull what's clean.
Growing up with my mother's taste in music, I was exposed to a lot of 70's and 80's new wave music, and I loved it. (I think it's part of my username?) However, in a weird twist of events, I originally hated the Cars. I thought the song "My Best Friend's Girl" was one of the most annoying songs ever written. However, as time went on, and as I started actively listening to them, I grew to appreciate them immensely. My mom had a similar experience with Duran Duran.
One day at the record store, my dad (who knew I loved the Cars) plucked a scuffed-up copy of Heartbeat City from the racks. Though I was a little turned off by the rather risque-looking album cover (I wouldn't even touch a copy of Candy-O at the time) I eventually bit the bullet and bought it, as my first Cars album.
Yes, you read that correctly. While I had heard stand-alone songs from them in the past, including some from Heartbeat, this was my first full-length drive. And I was in love.

Being a synth pop fan, I swooned over this album. If I didn't know what album to listen to, I put this one on, and it always calmed my nerves. "Magic" was akin to a fairy-tale to me; listening to it felt like being whisked away to a magical place, a pool-party in the skies.

"You Might Think" was already a familiar to me, and was the album's big single. But not the biggest one -- That goes to "Drive", the album's signature ballad, and probably the second-most popular Cars song behind "Just What I Needed"
youtube
In a way, this album was just what I needed. It was what really kicked off my fascination with the Cars. People love to talk about their 1978 self-titled album like it was the stuff of legends, but in my personal opinion, Heartbeat City was a magnum opus that nothing afterwards could possibly measure up to.
Happy fortieth to Heartbeat, and happy twentieth to me real soon.
