Quite possibly. Many would be surprised by how many tracks they know. They have had a very turbulent past too yet have come through the other side.

What a fantastic lyric from 'Picture This':

I will give you my finest hour
The one I spent watching you shower
I will give you my finest hour, oh yeah

Heart of Glass was ****ing good.

Now it's the first white hair time. :/

Atomic is classic

Blondie pushed boundaries while working within the pop/new wave/glam music scene and being embraced by radio and TV. ''Heart Of Glass'' and ''Call Me'' are still as fresh today as when they were written. Awesome stuff...

Not really a fan of Debbie Harry's solo work, but love Blondie. I have the initial Greatest Hits, and it's an enjoyable listen from start to finish. My favorites probably are "One Way or Another" (even after use in that damn commercial) and "Heart of Glass."

I love Blondie, especially Debbie Harry and her special voice. I think she is an independent woman :X

She was indeed. Kudos to David Cronenberg for casting her in that crazy role. Great cult classic-

I think Rapture is my favorite song & I love how it helped bring Rap into mainstream public attention - The video was great I think Fab 5 Freddy and Grandmaster Flash were in it I just watched it on youtube
