Re: Favorite Blondie songs
Atomic is by far my favorite Blondie song. It's also one of the best female vocal performances ever IMHO.
I picked Hanging on the Telephone and Dreaming as other picks.

Re: Favorite Blondie songs
I'm not too familiar with Blondie. But I know she's/they're hit and miss. "The Tide is High", "Denis", and "One Way or Another" are kind of annoying. So I chose "Call Me", which is such an excellent song, "Atomic", and "Heart of Glass", but "Rapture" and "Hanging on the Telephone" are also good.

Re: Favorite Blondie songs
"Sunday Girl" is a nice tune, sure. Still, I think it's closer to annoying Blondie than awesome Blondie. And the others you listed besides "Heart of Glass" are not good at all.

Re: Favorite Blondie songs
In my absent mind, I forgot to add "Mariah" to the poll which was pretty much a minor hit in 2000 when they first reunited in almost 20 years
I preferred their minor hits over their huge ones
1. Hanging on the Telephone 2. Union City Blues 3. One Way or Another 4. Denise 5. Rapture

Re: Favorite Blondie songs
It's Maria, not Mariah and it was a big hit in Europe. Hit a couple of #1 and was TOP 10 throughout Europe.
It sounds so 80s. I love it. It isn't, but it could replace any of the songs in The Terminator night club scenes and it would fit perfectly. Love that music.
