I've often felt this way about Blondie. Their sound was never consistantly punk or new wave...I mean, Heart of Glass and Rapture? That is straight up disco! "The Tide is High" is just a hybrid of reggae and pop. I don't know. I love Blondie, and I don't mean to focus so heavily on them, but I don't know if it's fair to lump them in with punk as people so often do, new wave, yes, punk no.
