"All Mixed Up" is a song by the Cars and the final track on their 1978 self-titled debut album. It was written by bandleader Ric Ocasek.
On the album, "All Mixed Up" is bridged together with " Moving in Stereo". Released as the B-side to the single " Good Times Roll", the song has received widespread airplay on American FM rock radio stations, and is generally played together with " Moving in Stereo" on AOR and classic rock radio stations. The song also saw single release in the Netherlands, backed with " You're All I've Got Tonight" (also from The Cars.) [1]
"All Mixed Up" features bassist Benjamin Orr on lead vocals in the studio version, though Ocasek sang lead vocals on the demo version. The song afforded Hawkes a chance to step away from his many synthesizers and play the closing saxophone solo, the only one in the Cars' discography. "All Mixed Up" also featured the Mu-Tron Octavider pedal, which Benjamin Orr recalled he "had to have." [2]
