She was anything but lame in the late 70's and early 80's - especially if you happened to be sitting up close for their shows at CBGB back then.

Deborah Harry is pretty lame, but Blondie was really good!

Read "All Hopped Up and ready to Go- the story of New york music" - Tony Fletcher" . it is funny when I tell people that punk started in New York with Patti Smith, Ramones, Talking Heads, Television and Blondie at CBGBs. It seems incongruous;
but it's always neat to hear about Deborah Harry being one of the gorgeous waitresses that they had at Max's Kansas City in late 60's early 70's and she was a folk-rock singer in a band called "the Wind and the Willows" around that time.

Agreed, tho Blondie was another rock band that ventured into and back out of disco but weren't really a disco band.

Pssst. . . dude. . . Blondie was a punk/new wave band from New York city. . .

Clem Burke, a drummer who could do a lot within the constraints of the disco beat.

Um?

Always loved this band, such good memories!

I used to live near Cincinnati, and I always wanted the one line to be "Where I can see it all/Find some Hudepohl."

(Hudepohl being a local brewery.)

It's a Rock Band song, meaning that my boys are enjoying the wonderfulness of trying to keep up with Clem Burke! I'm smart, and pick the bass each time.

Blondie were contemporary and relevant. They didn't aim to make pretentious music

Blondie were a classic British rock band. Innovative and fun. Nice track. Not their best, but still good

Oh Yeh?, RP has methods for making you change your mind. Bill could switch from Regular Mode to Depeche Mode and serve you a slice of Cake. Or he could give you The Weepies and then saddle you up with the Cowboy Junkies. He could even put you up a Porcupine Tree. One way or another you will like this tune!

For everyone who complains about the supposed glut of creepy guy-stalking-girl songs on RP... And this isn't creepy, it just rocks, dumbass sweeper commercials nonwithstanding.

This is what the Fonz had playing on his ipod when he jumped.....

It's on every Greatest Hits/Best Of compilation I've ever seen (there are several).

I'm a fan of this song, but it's definitely dropped a number of notches IMHO since hearing it over and over and over again on that excruciatingly annoying Swiffer commercial that's been played constantly in Canada.
REALLY wish they hadn't given permission for that one - now all I can think of is cleaning when I hear this song.

Is that the cd cover of the cd where you can find this song ("One way ...") ? Because I've got a Blondie "greatest hits" cd with that same cover and "One way..." is not included .

Ok song,but for me I sit here thinking ok next song please, This one I've heard way no many times. Although, I am not that familiar with Blondie songs, this one I've heard it feels like a million times. Radio Paradise self this one for awhile please.
The Lyrics to me are rather simple-I want to say silly, but hey I'm not the best at interpreting what the songs mean- like me and poetry.

he said jump the shark. . . ay

Lookit that pic on the album cover. You're a teen, and this is the beginning of Costello, Pretenders, and Blondie re-forming the nature of radio. That might've been one of the best periods, second only to the 1972-1974 period of creativity.
