Their self-titled debut album was released in 1978, featuring chart-topping hits like 'Just What I Needed' and 'You're All I've Got Tonight.' Over the years, The Electric Cars became synonymous with the early MTV generation, where their visually captivating music videos propelled their popularity to new heights.
