I was glad to see this in the playlist today; Bill plays plenty of terrific politically correct music, so I welcome some terrific music for the ClearChannel masses.

One of the bad Blondie-songs. Didn't age well either. One has to be in a very rare mood to enjoy this song.

A funny comment would have been:

Yes, you are going to be my #1!

Think about it.. There we go.

One of the few songs that actually make me physically ill.
Excuse me Bill, while I turn you off for the next three minutes...

I can't beleive I'm hearing this BS on RP. Maybe Bill is starting to miss corporate radio.

This song reminds me of my Mom, who is great...but has terrible taste in music.

Right on Darlington & ranbarton. Sometimes the masses have decent taste.

Besides, this one payed a lot of bills, and that's a good thing for ailing musicians.

That transition from Götz Alsmann was awesome. And look at the play history - Vince Guaraldi to Götz Alsmann to Blondie. Now that's eclectic.

I like some of Blondie's stuff quite a bit, but I always hated this song. Always, since it first came out right up to this day. Bleeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

Agree completely. Sometimes there's the faint whiff of elitism in the air and honestly, that makes me sick more than "popular" music. Come on! I dare you to deny that your shoulders didn't shimmy on the opening bars, even just a little.

Debbie Harry is a Goddess but many tracks much better than the faux-caribbean hit. "Rip Her To Shreds" would be delightful.

A hideous entity calling themselves "Atomic Kitten" have released a version of this here in the UK, it was number one for two weeks recently.

Thank you Mr Mclusky of OMD fame for selling your soul, and contributing to the "manufactured" polution of our once great popular music scene.
