Blondie - Punk

Anybody like Blondie -
I always liked their vast display of tunes -
and they did have - a hard edge at times -
I remember Ramones, Talking Heads, -
it was quite a mixture happening in the late 70's !

You know he can't be tested, he can't be read or found
Urban grey takes breath away,
he wants to push his pedal to the ground
And the night's what's right,
puts him at the wheel
Well, I eat danger, any stranger is all right
Feel hot to go like Jimmy O,
dodging flying objects at the show
And the lights make me fight
In Detroit 442, maybe, baby, I could ride with you
This town's a concrete factory and Dad and Mum look just like me
I'm on the plant assembly line.
Too late now. Too far behind
You said you wanna hang around, no-one really cares where you go
Take your time. Things never change

I love Blondie and as a kid I was in love with Deborah Harry

I have a greatest hits in my collection and occasionally get the itch for some Blondie.

Here's another top 5 of mine from them -

I'm in the phone booth, it's the one across the hall
If you don't answer, I'll just ring it off the wall
I know he's there, but I just had to call
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
I heard your mother now she's going out the door
Did she go to work or just go to the store
All those things she said, I told you to ignore
Oh why can't we talk again

I think that you have just spoken for every heterosexual guy of our age group

Bump because the new album's a belter.



Only listened once all the way through but for me this is the standout track but it's all great and at 71 Debbie is still cool as hell!!

I bought the CD based upon two other songs I heard prior to the release, Fun and Long Time (which are both very cool). I got it on Friday, but haven't had the chance to listen yet. This song is GREAT!

Holy crap, Debbie Harry is 71????

That sound you probably heard was my college fantasies crashing.

Instead of....

"Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out had a heart of glass"

"My arteries clogged and blood won't pass
Soon turned out had a heart bypass"

Not mine....

I preferred Pat Benatar
and saw Heart perform at California Jam II in 1978.
