The Cars self-titled debut is stuffed so full of stone cold classics that it’s hard for me to choose one song to post about. Ocasek’s songwriting is so simple and ear wormy, and I love that he shares vocals with the completely underrated Ben Orr (who sings on the albums most popular songs).
ive been self soothing with this whole album because it’s such a thrill. you ought to do the same. i think it could help you get through the summer!
good times roll is by far my fav ocasek-vocal track. i love his lyrics. he’s like if julian casablancas were actually cool. i cant stop thinking about the guitar at 1:45 (thanks eliot easton!). also that album cover! so seductive, kind of unsettling.
let them leave you up in the air
let them brush your rock and roll hair

Hit radio plays at work every day so I’m always hearing songs I haven’t heard in years and for some reason this one has made it onto the stations rotarion for the past week. There’s something about this song that keeps me coming back on my own and while I do think Train is cheese there is such an honesty to this song that I cannot deny.
It made its way onto my giant playlist of the moment and I’m here listening in the dark and recommending it to all of you

This track is really nice. Sure it’s about a guy driving around freeways chatting up some prostitutes. I was surprised that this was almost not on candy-o also… it’s so catchy.
this actually reminds me of steely dan thematically- some aging no longer joe cool trying to talk himself up to just about anyone who’ll listen, keeping the dooming and looming at bay by chattering away, those scary feelings inadequacy at bay with his fast car, fast ladies, and a good book.
trying to find something or someone to stroke that boomer ego.
it’s really just a great driving around song (as almost any Cars song is)- but this one is just a touch more ironic, yet also plaintive.

tomorrow PI.FYI launches to the public
this project is the result of thousands of hours spent coding everything from scratch after I got laid off six months ago
no thiel-bucks or weirdo outsider money, just a pure desire to make something fun and true to Perfectly Imperfect’s day one goal of helping people find new things from real human beings, not algorithms or AI
a pure labor of love that I’ve been quietly plotting for two years and it’s completely self-funded from my (rapidly) dwindling savings account
so thank you for coming along for this weird ride 🫶 let's see where it goes
