"Call Me", Blondie

[backintime]

Firstly, lol @ how obvious it is I'm just listening to my iTunes library on alphabetic order and starting threads.

Secondly, this is classic Blondie. From the soundtrack to American Gigolo, it was the Hot 100 single of 1980. It is surely the most successful song about phone sex ever.




You know you've made it when you perform your biggest hit on The Muppet Show


Billboard Hot 100: #1 (6 weeks); UK Singles Chart: #1 (2 weeks)

Ranked at #283 on the list of Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

I like it, but it's not one of my favorite Blondie songs.

Oh, fun fact, I heard that Stevie Nicks was intended to do this song before it had lyrics. I forget the full story though. I think the instrumental may have been written before the lyrics and this song was going to be given to Stevie.

I absolutely love this one. Not my favorite Blondie single though.

I think this is my favorite Blondie single, although sometimes I favor "Atomic"

Hmm, Stevie Nicks. No thank you. Debbie's vocals are perfect for this song.

[Punchanello]

Stripper song.
