Endika, It's just a great line that doesn't get enough opportunities. Although the song is from the '70s, I felt that the lyric suggests intensity of some Americans' love for automobiles of the '50s (the Elvis era), and -- vaguely -- the potential for destruction in any "heated" relationship. I also liked the visual representation of burning (oxidation) in the rust pattern. The title might have meaning for car buffs of a certain age. Or not. :)

Another great abstract! Rust gives a very appealing texture, and the bright car sign works very well by contrast to complete the composition. Googled for the title, and I got that it's an Elvis song, but no clue about what it has to do with the image, sure I miss a key fact... endika
