Blondiemania!


Last week everyone was buzzing about the postcard John Lennon sent to Ringo Star about Blondie's "Heart of Glass." Read HERE.


And now I see a reference to a 2006 interview with Rolling Stone magazine, in which Sean Lennon said: 
"My father had an old Wurlitzer in the game room of our house on Long Island. It was filled with 45s, mostly Elvis and The Everly Brothers. The one modern song I remember him listening to was 'The Tide Is High' by Blondie, which he played constantly. When I hear that song, I see my father, unshaven, his hair pulled back into a ponytail, dancing to and fro in a worn-out pair of denim shorts, with me at his feet, trying my best to coordinate tiny limbs."
Who knew the late Beatle was such a Blondie queen? :-)
