    "One Way or Another" is my favorite Blondie song. She was stalked by her ex, put his death threats to music, and made them into a number one hit 😂

    Debbie Harry took some time off to care for a seriously ill friend which many people said it would kill her career. After the person was finally successfully diagnosed and recovered she came back to singing. Blondie had broken up but they reformed and started recording again . She is truly a hero in my book.

    Debbie Harry was a Studio 54 gal and embraced the whole New York heroin scene of the 70's. She became good friends with Andy Warhol and he did a series of prints of her and painting of her which sold for £US 5.9 mill in 2012. She has lived one hell of a life (she was also a Playboy Bunny) and is still going strong today. Blondie performed on the main stage at Glastonbury festival (the biggest and best in the world) last summer.

One of the band members became seriously ill and she took time off her career to nurse him back to health. She's a hero! She's 79 years old now and still looks great.

    "Harry revealed the phrase “Heart of Glass” came out of an attempt to get rid of a vulgar lyric. “Back when it was called ‘The Disco Song,’ pretty much all I said was, ‘Once I had a love, it was a gas. Soon turned out, it was a pain in the ass,'” she recalled. “It didn’t quite work well, so that’s when we came up with the line, ‘Soon turned out, had a heart of glass.'” Despite this lyrical change, Blondie still used the phrase “pain in the ass” near the end of the song."

    Yup, Blondie aren't a disco group... it was only this one song that became a big hit. They also had #1 hits with rap in Rapture, reggae in The Tide Is High, they mixed in a lot of different styles. Debbie Harry has also acted throughout her career including the original Hairspray movie. She influenced Madonna for sure. The band Blondie stopped after 1982 mainly due to health problems of guitarist Chris Stein who was her romantic partner and she took care of for several years while he recovered. Debbie did release some solo albums and then the band had a successful comeback in 1999 with a new album and hit single with Maria.

    Blondie was an alt punk band in New York in the late ‘70s, regularly playing at legendary club CGBG’s (music history in a dive bar). Lead singer Deborah Harry and her partner and lead guitarist with both visionaries interested in all kinds of music. They ventured into areas other bands wouldn’t have bothered with and were excepted for their sincere appreciation of and interest in the music and style. One of New York’s kings of the very early rap scene worked with them on Rapture, he’s the unique gentleman in white hat & tales in the video. They both knew that getting the music on the radio through Blondie would open the door to other artists like The Sugar Hill Gang. She also opened the door to mainstream radio playing reggae with The Tide is High. Her huge movie hit Call Me gave Blondie the freedom to create their second album which shocked the hell out of the label. They didn’t want to release it but to sing Blondie in a bidding war they were given creative control and guaranteed release. The label tried dropping it without promotion but Blondie were club scene royalty and the music was played, radio picked it up and then it was hit after hit.

    I was 8 or 9 when I first started hearing Blondie hit . I was trying to place the name of "Rapture" Her lines were a little odd to me. Rapping about monsters eating cars? Very unique, even for a disco girls first attempt at rap. I preferred The Pet Shop Boys "West End Girls" or even T'Pau's Rhythmic Speaking that they creatively layered in front of, behind and over the more traditionally sung verses on their hit "Heart & Soul" as these sounded less gimmicky to my preteen ears. Two of my favorite Eighties call backs. "Call me" and "One Way or Another" are my favorites from Blondie.

Blondie was part of the new wave genre at the tail end of punk. Along with the police, talking heads, Ramones and so many others. Disco was still going strong and some bands had some crossover hits and Blondie was one of them. Debbie Harry was really hot 🔥 and me and 50 million guys had the hots for her! 😅

    This was a disco hit by Blondie back in the late 70's... They were originally a rock band that came out of the NYC indie scene (the songs 'One way or another' ... 'Sunday girl' ... 'X offender'...) and as they broke commercially, they experimented w/ more diverse influences... They had a reggae song ('The tide is high')... pop songs ('Dreaming' ... 'Hanging on the telephone') However, Blondie encountered rapid commercial decline by the early 80's and broke up soon after... Debbie Harry brought Blondie back together in the 90's and delivered a surprise hit single in 1999 - 'Maria'... which sounded like nothing from Blondie's past.

    Blonde started out as Punk then New Wave. They experimented with other types of music including Rap/Disco/Reggae etc. Debbie took off a few years to help nurse her then lover through a dreadful disease. She released a few solo albums and sang with a Jazz group, but a few years ago She reformat Blondie and have released several albums, with some hits,and as of last year (2023) She at 78 is still Rocking and touring @

    Debbie was great with the Jazz Passengers. She fitted right into the genre while not losing the essential Debbie. The album was "Individally Twisted" (great title - as was their previous album called "Implement Yourself") and Elvis Costello also sang on one of the tracks. He also fitted right in but not surprising since he was (and stil is) married to jazz singer and pianist, Diana Krall. I'm a jazz fan anyway so when I saw Debbie had teamed up with them it was a no brainer. Congrats btw for being the only other person I've seen on the internet that knew about that album. [Edit] Oops, just saw you had another reply who also knew about it so shout out to @highpath4776. Looks like the word's getting out and it only took 27 years.

    I so had a crush on Blondie (Debbie Harry) in the 1980's, I was in my early teens at the time. Other great songs she did was "Call Me", "The Tide is High", "One Way or another", "Rapture". She also was an accomplished actress, she was terrific playing a Witch in the "Tales from the Darkside" the movie 1990. Take note she also played in Videodrome (1983) with James Wood.

    I saw Blondie perform at Glastonbury sometime around 1998-2001. Debbie Harry, by this point, was in her late 50s and she absolutely OWNED the stage. The entire band were incredible - probably my highlight of that year - but Debbie stole the show. Then, Blondie only turn up in 2023 and do multiple festivals in the UK, Debbie Harry at age 78 just being incredible as ever! You see many stars from her era desperately trying to prolong their career, and their looks, and they just look haggard and beat but Debbie looked as great as ever, growing old gracefully and yet just as cool, just as striking and just as brilliant as she ever was. Seriously one of the coolest female artists of all time in my view. Incidentally, Blondie did a brilliant little documentary for the BBC recently about them in the UK called "When Blondie came to the UK". It's well worth checking out if you've not seen it (it's on YT) - loads of cool history about the band as well as recent footage from there 2023 UK visit. It is just so good seeing Debbie, Chris and Clem looking so well and on top form to be honest

    This was Blondie's first big mainstream hit. The album Parallel Lines had other hits on it -- check out "Hanging on the Telephone" and "One Way or Another." But their earlier albums were great too, with songs like "Denis, Denis" and "X-Offender." "Rapture" and "Call Me" came later.

    You have to see Blondies more edgier stuff. I was so lucky to see her in the late 70's, I think I was about 14 and snuck into a club with my older sister to see some of the punk bands and was introduced to Blondie's sound, I was mesmerized, as a girl I hadn't seen anything like her. She was holding that stage and all the punks in her hand. She's that rare kind of gal that women love and relate to and men lust after 😊 All of their songs were hits, their first two albums were brilliant especially Parallel Lines every song hit it out of the park. I remember wearing it out, playing it over and over between my Ziggy Stardust and AbbA to name two (I had eclectic tastes lol). She and the band did glastonbury fairly recently, she's an absolute legend, she never went away, slowed down but still going strong.
