1. One of the great things about most 80s songs is you can blast them in the car and sing along with them.

Take Me Home Tonight is no exception. Such a great song.

So many of today's hit songs are simply not car songs you can sing along with easily. I'm not a huge fan of hers but Taylor Swift seems to understand this as you can sing along to many of her songs. I truly believe that is part of the reason behind her huge success.

6. Great points about car songs, I grew up on car music from radio,

then cassettes and CDs. I really miss those sources.

3. One of the facts I like about this song is

That they originally wanted Martha Davis of the Motels to sing Ronnie’s lines but her voice just didn’t sound right. So Eddie called Ronnie and asked if she was too busy to do it, and she told him, not too busy, just cleaning her toilet.
