She is very, very high on the "sweeeeet love" hamonies, esp. at the end

I personally think she put a low and a high harmony on that track. But, and in any event, she is still way high all through that song. In many ways, I think it is academically her best vocal.

Well, let's see, she was the most recognizeable member of one of the most famous band on the planet and she just sang a solo on a # 5 song that was at the time widely considered a success for her.

I think her vocal is absolute beauty. However, I would say it's her best- "Sleeping Angel" beats it, as do others. You are right, though- it is very, very good.

Call Me is a waste.

If you wanna talk bad pop songs...that's one of them.

That is, arguably, my favorite Blondie song. At least it was for a long, long, time. Soooooo fun to sing to, Soooooo fast, SUCH great drums. I can't believe you said that.

I don't like Blondie. Their lyrics are so campy and repeat over and over and over again. No emotion...her vocals are the same in pretty much every song....that one high note she does....ugh...my poor ears.

I totally agree with this.

Ah, you haven't heard that many songs then. Well, it's okay. I mean, don't you like the backstreet boys, or something?

She and the band are immensely talented. Although, I can't listen to her voice as constantly as I can Stevie's, but still. Wow. Did not know that.

Ooh I love that song!! It would be cool to hear Stevie sing it.

Put it this way - if Call Me comes on the radio the station gets changed immediately. Nothing personal.
