Color me your color, baby
Color me your car
Color me your color, darling
I know who you are
Come up off your color chart
I know where you're comin' from

Call me (call me) on the line
Call me, call me any, anytime
Call me (call me) my love
You can call me any day or night
Call me

Cover me with kisses, baby
Cover me with love
Roll me in designer sheets
I'll never get enough
Emotions come, I don't know why
Cover up love's alibi

Call me (call me) on the line
Call me, call me any, anytime
Call me (call me) my love
When you're ready, we can share the wine
Call me

Ooo-oo-oo-oo-ooh, he speaks the languages of love
Ooo-oo-oo-oo-ooh, ''amore, chiamami, chiamami''
Ooo-oo-oo-oo-ooh, ''appelle-moi mon chéri, appelle-moi''
Anytime, anyplace, anywhere, any way
Anytime, anyplace, anywhere, any day, any way

Call me (call me) my love
Call me, call me any, anytime
Call me (call me) for a ride
Call me, call me for some overtime

Call me (call me) my love
Call me, call me in a sweet design
Call me (call me) call me
For your lover's lover's alibi

Call me (call me) on the line
Call me, call me any, anytime
Call me (call me)
Oh, call me

Ooh-hoo-hah
Call me (call me) my love
Call me, call me any, anytime

Cripes!! She is 9 years older than me, and still looks hot!  ...and, still sounds GREAT!   Check out Google & You Tube!
Where did I hear this lately?  Ah, yes.

American Gigolo. 
Oddly -- or, well, maybe not so strange at all -- I have the first two and the 4th Blondie albums (Blondie, Plastic Letters, and Eat to the Beat), purchased when released in vinyl -- at something I think was called a "record store" -- but not the 3rd or the 5th, with their big hit songs.  (Also a Debbie Harry solo album or two.)

This PSA provided for no one's benefit at all, I guess...!
A great example of a movie theme song being better than the movie!

I like it! ...even though it was severely overplayed on the radio!




I agree!
I was about to protest that this was NOT on Autoamerican but I see it was added as a CD bonus track. 

The staple Blondie hit for classic rock stations that want to do the new wave thing once a day. Still a lot of cool stuff in an otherwise overplayed track. Clem Burke, live drumming the disco, for starters.
Clem Burke's fantastic drumming!
I was 15, wonderful memories.
She also sings a verse in Italian language,  ("amore, chiamami, chiamami''), in Italy everybody knew and sang this song.
Disco time!

Shocked that in all these years listening to nothing but RP I had never before rated this song - an instant 8! 
What a great fade in from black magus woman.
Happy 75th birthday Debbie Harry.   
Deebie call me please

American Gigolo. R. Gere & L. Hutton. Days of youth.
Great blast from the past!
Quite nice.
Pretty good Rock/Disco hybrid written by Debbie with the basic music track by G. Moroder.
