#5. The Cars – Let the Good Time’s Roll Requested Through – Facebook Request Line – Scotty B wdha Requested by – Commander Erik P in New Brunswick , NJ
Bring up the rear at #5 is Commander Erik P with his request for The Cars “Let the Good Times Roll” in celebration for buying a new track. Congratulations dude! “Let the Good Times Roll” is a celebration of rock and roll as a force for joy and liberation. It’s from The Cars Self titled 1978 debut album. Part of the song’s appeal lies in its nod to the past while remaining firmly rooted in the present. The title and chorus are taken from a classic 1950s R&B song by Shirley and Lee, and the Cars’ version pays homage to that era’s exuberance and energy while updating it for a new generation. The band’s use of synthesizers and other electronic instruments adds a modern twist to the traditional rock and roll sound, creating a unique hybrid that was both familiar and innovative. Great Job and enjoy your new truck Erik! Salute!
