Blond



Another poppy icon that gives me some great memories. Blondie was the name of the band, Debbie Harry was the lead singer.

Denis looks like her French lover and the and Phone song is also great. Here is a remasterd version of the 1978 Parallel Lines album and it has some bonus tracks.

2. "One Way or Another" (Nigel Harrison, Deborah Harry) – 3:31
3. "Picture This" (Jimmy Destri, Harry, Chris Stein) – 2:53
4. "Fade Away and Radiate" (Stein) – 3:57
5. "Pretty Baby" (Harry, Stein) – 3:16
6. "I Know But I Don't Know" (Frank Infante) – 3:53

Side two
7. "11:59" (Destri) – 3:19
8. "Will Anything Happen" (Lee) – 2:55
