Brandon Flowers pays tribute to Ric Ocasek, calling The Cars frontman 'my first king'
on their legacy overall, and on him in particular. “Over the years, the Cars have achieved what every kid who ever sweat it out in a garage dreamed of—including a young Kurt Cobain who chose ‘My Best Friend’s Girl’ as one of his first tunes to learn,” Flowers noted in the speech. “They achieved greatness and left a comet trail behind them, writing and recording songs that have transcended into classics.”that the Cars’ song “Just What I Needed” changed his life.
He also commented on whether Ocasek might ever produce a Killers album, which unfortunately didn’t come to pass. “He was on the list, definitely,” Flowers said to. “I don’t know if it was our first manager—who’s not our manager anymore, because he’s a liar—or if it was our A&R guy, but I forgot who told us, but they told us that Ocasek wasn’t into it. And I found out later that he never said that.
