The Cars’ LP ?Move Like This?
I recently found a lovely article posted earlier today, by Sean Brna, over on Our Vinyl entitled The Cars' LP ?Move Like This? that I urge all of you to read! Below are a couple of little excerpts in order to whet your appetites!
Sad Song is another quality number, and is the first single off of the album. Ironically it has an upbeat feel to it, and with it’s wonderful energy and movement it’s no wonder this is the first single. Hits Me, the album closer, is another one of the better songs and it too has a swift pace and dynamic progression. With swaggering guitars, climbing synth lines, and engaging lyrics it is another example of this band’s reluctance to reinvent their own wheel, and at the same time shows us why they don’t have to. “Move Like This”, upon repeated listening, is a collection of songs that are at their best when the rhythms are quicker and their is development in what the guitars and synths are playing within the songs. This means that the unhurried and more unadorned songs don’t do their creators nearly as much justice.
Now then, reading this started me thinking so I did a google search for some more posts on the subject and found some more gems! i.e. Top 40 Dance Songs: Best Billboard Top 40 Songs posted a fortnight ago, by LeeOnna, on Ballet Dance Experts:
