}} "Double Life" is a single by the American rock band The Cars from their second album ''Candy-O''. ==Background== On the ''Candy-O'' album, this song segues via cross-fading into the next song, "Shoo Be Doo". Aside from being in the same relative keys (C major and A minor), the two have nothing in common. This trick of connecting multiple songs by crossfading or short segueways tempted radio programmers, in the earlier days of radio, into playing more than one song from the album. Many stations had succumbed to this temptation in the sequencing of Side Two of the band's debut album (in which "You're All I've Got Tonight", "Bye Bye Love", "Moving in Stereo", and "All Mixed Up" were all lined up seamlessly.) The first lines of the song, "It takes a fast car to lead a double life," are taken from the first two lines of a poem by Lawrence Ferlinghetti called "Lost Parents."〔"A Geography of Poets" anthology edited by Edward Field, page 67〕 A music video, featuring the band miming to the song, was also released. The video was the twenty-first music video to be aired on MTV. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Double Life (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
