It's Alive features live performance of the band's greatest hits as well as new songs. Some of the classics included on the album are "Just What I Needed," "You Might Think," and "Shake it Up." Easton commented on the old music and the new sound in a recent press release, “This is The New Cars. We’ll play people's favorites, but eventually, we’ll introduce new songs that will stand on their own merit. Go from strength to strength."
And a new single, shown in Youtube video below, "Not Tonight," is an example how the new music stays true to the old sound.
