Random blast from the past, from back in the glory days when postpunk and pop success weren't necessarily antithetical to one another:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2WMetqMkpc …

Not nearly enough people talk about the awesomeness of Blondie anymore. I feel like they were the US analogue to Squeeze in the UK: amazing in their time, the work 100% holds up, and now they're just a few 'oldies' hits even though they were so much better than that.

And even though Debbie Harry was past 30 when they broke out, they're still touring, & put out two listenable albums in the past decade. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaL-G9zVxzk …

It is - this may be my hottest take ever - arguably their best song. Certainly belongs side by side with the canonical hits like Call Me & One Way or Another. I'd also suggest that Blondie is not at all forgotten by men whose teenage years overlapped with their prime.

No, I think your hottest take ever still remains the whole "Kelly Clarkson" thing, Dan.
