As Long As It Was Deep: Unpacking “Just What I Needed” by The Cars

In this episode of the Behind The Song podcast, Janda dives into “Just What I Needed,” the first hit single released from The Cars’ self-titled debut. A song that proves even the catchiest little tunes can actually be very complex, expressing a feeling that's hard to verbalize. And the killer opening riff borrows from a 1960’s bubblegum pop hit! Get into it in the new episode of the Behind The Song podcast.
