Ahem, it's a tie now . About this new one, I voted for the Cars, among them it's the band I know more.

Romy

[ontheEdgeof17]

Well, since my new fav band, The Argument, performs Car songs during their set and actually covered Hello Again on their new CD....I went with them.

[amber]

That one was kinda tough. But, one of those bands was just what I needed, so....

[macfanken]

One of the first albums I ever bought was a Cars album.

[gldstwmn]

I love The Cars. I was looking for that disc yesterday. I couldn't find it.

[ryan8472]

The B-52's!!!

[jannieC]

The other bands are more talented, I know this- but the Go-go's pretty much were my adolescence. So I went with them.

[shackin'up]

heavy choice again.

Devo was the most era-defining of this list. And a great band too. The Cars rocked my boat 100% when I was 17.

Never been into the Go-Go's that much but i liked them too.

But the first two B-52's -records are so facking brilliant that that's my vote.

[DavidMn]

I'm just more of a Go Go's fan I guess.

[dissention]

I just heard that Blondie and The Cars are most likely going to tour together next year. Not sure how I feel about that.

Will it help you cement your opinion if I tell you that Ric Ocasek is not taking part in this Cars reunion and instead is being replaced by Todd Rundgren?

No. No. I'm not joking.

Ack, I know. I read about it and all I could think was 'Good christ, this is a baaaaaad idea.'

[ryan8472]

Quick! Someone vote for the '52's
