Blondie Appreciation Thread
 

Im loving myself some Blondie @ the moment - "Curse of Blondie" has been consistantly in my CD player for weeks :D

I have to apologise to Josh - after giving "No Exit" quite a ribbing over @ sevenwonders. I bought it again and gave it a listen and, although not as good as "Curse" still has some great moments!

I have heard those two albums - plus 'AutoAmerican' which is turning out to be my least favourite of the three. Im waiting for Brandon to bring me a copy of "The Hunter" over from the US when he makes his big move - so Im looking forward to hearing that :D

Any other Blondie fans out there??

I think most people on here are. :laugh:
I like No Exit better than Curse still.

:wavey: Love 'em...Rapture Baby!!!:laugh:

Really? :)

Im still listening to "No Exit" - it was an album I hated for a long time, but it is growing on me...

Blondie rocks my world -- granted, it doesn't take much, but "Good Boys" and "Union City Blue" are enough to make me...:blob2:

I'm pissed cuz I missed Blondie by like TWO DAYS in Vegas. Pissed I tell ya!!
I'll always love Call Me.

Yeah. But actually, almost all albums take a long time to grow on me, so maybe someday I'll like Curse better. No Exit is more accessible, catchy, and pleasantly melodic to me.
Also, I fell in love with Maria the first time I heard it on the Radio. ZZITBBR is a sublime vocal with amazingly whimsical and original lyrics (of course, right?). I love the rap song. etc.

Call me is my favorite forever. I have to miss them when they're playing here on the 27th. :( Well, not here, but at Konocti with The New Cars. either way, it sucks.

Aw, I'm sorry you're missing Blondie too. Although New Cars? No Rick Okasek? Yeah, I wouldn't worry too much about that.

Oh, and I'm all over you're rigatoni comment. I feel much the same way about Penne. I've gotta great Penne a la Vodka recipe that'll kill ya.

I'm seeing them tomorrow night! :D

:mad: :mad: :blob2: :blob2: :blob2:
So jealous. Have a great time! (How could you not?)

So cool!! Im still waiting for them to come to NZ.

BTW - has anybody noticed in the booklet for "Curse of Blondie" that in the credits for "Good Boys" that it says "mucis by.." instead of 'music by.."

Sorry - just a random notation :laugh:

I love me some Blondie alright. :nod: Going to see them next month.

I credit dear old Josh for hooking me on them. From there, we proceeded to convert all who did not already worship the Blondie here. :laugh:

And Autoamerican is like my favorite album!

I also credit Josh for re-igniting my love for Blondie - all my Blondie albums had been sitting around without getting much play - but Josh started talking about what a great album 'Curse' was, and I remembered I had it, and it started from there :thumbsup:

They'll be here in Minnesota June 1. I plan on being there.:nod:
