I have liked Blondie’s music since I was four years old, which is the age where I received a Blondie tape for my fourth birthday.  I used to listen to that tape on a portable tape player, which was also given to me on my fourth birthday.  I remember taking that tape recorder/player with me everywhere from the ages of four to seven years of age.  I used to also really enjoy that Blondie tape and played it numerous times.  Sorry, I can’t remember what the tape was called!! hehe and the tape had a photo on the cover with Debbie Harry’s hair in a bun like hairdo.  The songs I used to really like on the tape were “I’m a Gonna Love you to”, “Denis”, “I Know but I Don’t Know” and “Heart of Glass”.  Also from the ages of 4-7 when I used to go to The Coast with my family and my parents would drive there, I’d listen to this Blondie tape and my Abba tape.  Abba’s tape is also a music tape, which I used to play contantly when I was a kid.

to the one I had years ago.

I started to re-like listening to Blondie’s music when I was in Year 10.  In about 1993 I bought the Best of Blondie.  Some of the songs on that CD are: “The Tide is High”, “In the Flesh”, “Sunday Girl”, “Picture This” and “Rip Her to Shreds”. What I also like about the CD is the cover as it shows Debbie Harry in a really nice white dress and there are great buildings in New York shown behind the band’s photo.

About five years ago I also bought Blondie’s 1978 CD called Parallel lines.  I bought it because it’s got some really great songs in it such as ”Hanging on the Telephone”, “Sunday Girl”, “One Way or Another”, “11.59″ and “I Know But I Don’t Know” etc.

I also like a few of Blondie’s videos, which I have seen on Youtube and which I used to listen to and watch on a late night music video show called Rage.  These videos are “Rapture” and “Heart of Glass”.

In 1998 Blondie reformed as a group and released a new album called “No Exit”.   In the same year I bought a CD single from that album which is called “Maria”.

About three years ago I rented a DVD movie with Deborah Harry in it, which is called Life Without Me (2003) In the movie Deborah Harry acts as the mother of a lady who is dying of cancer. The reason why I hired this movie is because Scott Speedman was in it and I was/ am a fan of this very attractive American actor.
