Blondie - Best song?
|
Has to be Picture This, but an honourable mention has to go to Heart of Glass, just for how she looked in the video.
You cunts?

Is there a truly rubbish Blondie song? Maybe the dodgy album they did after Parallel Lines contained a duffer or two...
I like most of the mentioned tunes but the crashing drums on Union City Blue always make me very happy.

This "appears" to be all live.
Heyday. 1979.
Burke's going berserk on the drums like his hero Keith Moon. Harry's voice is astonishingly flawless. Sounds even better than the studio version.
Outstanding.

Heart of Glass always stands alone for me but as someone below said she had lots of good songs.

Going to see Debbie Harry and Chris Stein talk about the career of the band from their CBGB roots forward, at The Cheltenham Literature Festival in October.
To be honest, while I now think ParalIel Lines is a great album from those days, I was never a big fan and only bought it some years later. Never saw them live in their pomp either, but looking forward to the event in October...

Heart of Glass
Debbie Harry is the name her adoptive parents gave her when they took her at 3 months. She was born Angela Tremble. Was always impressed that when they stopped the first time as Blondie she spent years looking after Chris Stein who got very sick even though they weren’t a couple any more.

Rapture is my favorite Blondie Song just has the weirdest lyrics - I love it
[Verse 1] Toe to toe dancing very close Body breathing almost comatose Wall to wall people hypnotized And they're stepping lightly Hang each night in rapture
Back to back sacroiliac Spineless movement and a wild attack Face to face sightless solitude And it's finger popping 24 hour shopping in rapture
[Verse 2] Fab Five Freddy told me everybody's fly DJ spinning I said "My My" Flash is fast, Flash is cool François c'est pas, Flash ain't no dude And you don't stop, sure shot Go out to the parking lot And you get in your car and drive real far And you drive all night and then you see a light And it comes right down and it lands on the ground And out comes the man from Mars And you try to run but he's got a gun And he shoots you dead and he eats your head And then you're in the man from Mars You go out at night eating cars You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too Mercurys and Subaru And you don't stop, you keep on eating cars Then when there's no more cars you go out at night And eat up bars where the people meet Face to face, dance cheek to cheek One to one, man to man And toe to toe, don't move too slow Cause the man from Mars is through with cars He's eating bars, yeah wall to wall Door to door, hall to hall He's gonna eat 'em all Rapture, be pure, take a tour Through the sewer, don't strain your brain Paint a train, you'll be singing in the rain Said don't stop to the punk rock [Verse 3] Well now you see what you wanna be Just have your party on TV Cause the man from Mars won't eat up bars Where the TV's on and now he's gone Back up to space where he won't have a hassle With the human race and you hip hop And you don't stop, just blast off Sure shot cause the man from Mars stopped eating cars And eating bars and now he only eats guitars, get up
