“Let’s Go” is from The Cars’ 1979 album “Candy-O” and peaked at #14 on the Billboard Hot 100; it was their first single to break the Top 20. The song was written by Ric Ocasek and is sung by bassist Benjamin Orr. The song’s signature hook is a series of claps followed by a shouted “Let’s go!”, which is derived from the 1962 instrumental of the same name by The Routers.
