I saw that. His DOB is either 3/23 1944 or 1949. ????????? Wikipedia has both years and Ancestry.com shows it as 1949.

This "Drive" by The Cars had been released in 1984, even before I was born.
But here you go: It's really a cool music, even for 2019. |

Haha, I've found some rather cheerful musics by The Cars. I think I'm starting to be obsessed with this 80's band:
