Patrick from Keansburg, Nj The song Red Barchetta was released in 1981. That same year the movies Firebird 2015 AD and The Last Chase also came out and both movies had a similar theme. My guess is that something in 1980 inspired all three. Does anyone have a clue why in 1981 people were so inspired to write about a world where cars were outlawed?
