I'm a Blondie fan ! I had 3 teenage periods : John Frusciante (and the Red Hot Chili Peppers), Blondie, and now FM.
My favorite album is Plastic Letters. I have a 1978 Live, a great one, right before Parallel Lines. I love Parallel Lines too, of course.

I also know that Debbie Harry is a Stevie fan! She performed the Chain at Night of 1000 Stevies a while back and it wa awesome, she had a blonde wig and shawls and everything

Shall we all show some love for Debbie and the Boys?
Totally love 'er! I think she has just as much performing talent as Stevie or anyone else. I saw an old performance of Blondie's from "The Old Grey Whistle Test" on VH-1 Classic and it was amazing.

Rapture. The first rap song before rap. Rap will never catch on I said in 1981.

"Rapture" is a single by the American new wave band Blondie. It was released in January 1981 and became one of the first substantial hit singles to involve rap music, and the first rap-influenced single to reach number one on the US Billboard Chart.

I love Blondie! Deborah Harry has an amazing voice. I like all their albums pretty much, but Parallel Lines and Eat To The Beat have to be my favourites.

Parallel Lines is just such a classic album, every song is a hit, I like to think of it as "Blondie's Rumours" but Eat To The Beat has some of my favourite Blondie songs on it - Atomic, Dreaming and Union City Blue.

Besides the two hit singles, I also love(d) the song Sunday's Girl. Haven't played this record since the 1980's though.

I watched them on BBC Crown Jewels about 6 years ago, and was starstruck. I knew Call Me and other hits. But this was before they got very famous, so they did quite a few deeper tracks. I have loved them ever since but Union City Blue is definitely my favorite song, and Parallel Lines is my favorite album.
