Reception
Rolling Stone critic Kit Rachlis said in his review of The Cars that "the songs bristle and -- in their harsher, more angular moments ('Bye Bye Love,' 'Don't Cha Stop') -- bray."[1] On the Billboard review of The Cars, "Don't Cha Stop" was named one of the albums "[b]est cuts[.]"[1]
Other appearances
