Jan 24, 05 | 7:30 pmAND what about Deborah Harry's "Feel the spin"!!!!!
How could a serious page like this could miss this song
That's REAL 80s DISCO, absolutely Genuine ( AND FABULOUS!!!)

Apr 14, 04 | 9:41 amRock meets Disco on some of their hits. Yes, the rapping was gawd-awful on "Rapture" but at the time it sounded kind of fresh...I think it was also done a bit tounge-in-cheek. Blondie never took themselves too seriously.

Mar 03, 04 | 4:04 amPersonally, I feel that Debbie Harry's solo tracks were a better effort.
"Feel the Spin" and "In Love With Love" were both very popular Hi-NRG tracks.

Jan 16, 04 | 10:34 pmThey echoed Abba's career path, but harder and louder. Their punkier stuff still rings true; the disco stuff was a little more pedestrian, but very accessible. But gawd, the rapping in "Rapture" is truly terrible.

Jan 03, 04 | 8:45 pmWicked awesome band; saw some success in the 80s too.

No one was more surprised by BLONDIE'S HEART OF GLASS then I was. They definitely were not DISCO, but have a song that helped put DISCO in the mainstream!! Then they didn't stop. CALL ME was huge! A true UNLIKELY ARTIST.
