Archive material and source history

Melissa Lefton is best known for the 1981 synth-pop track 'He Blinded Me With Science,' which she recorded with members of The Cars. Rick Ocasek co-wrote and produced it, with Benjamin Orr contributing vocals, Elliot Easton on guitar, and Greg Hawkes on keyboards. That song appears on her self-titled debut album from the same year.

Her other work includes the albums 'Into the Night' in 1982, 'The Witch' in 1984, and 'The Garden' in 1986. She also released a collection called 'Experiments' in 1990. Songs like 'I Love Life' and 'My Hit Song' are among her other recordings.
