Then I decided to find a photo of Debbie Harry to post and I found this.
And then this...her signature "hands in hair" pose. You know, I still dream of being a platinum blonde because of her.
Well, then I found this. WHO is this woman's plastic surgeon and what is their number?? I'll save you the time in looking this up. She's 63!
Sorry, such a lame video but I posted the nonsensical words so you can sing along.
Leaning in your corner like a candidate for wax
Sidewalk social scientist don't get no satisfaction from your cigarette
It's ten to ten and time is running out
Lock up all your memories, get outa here, you know that we can run
Today can last another million years
Today could be the end of me
It's 11:59, and I want to stay alive
Pumping like a fugitive in cover from the night
Take it down the freeway like a bullet to the ocean
Wait until the morning, take tomorrow by the hand
Take it down the highway like a rocket to the ocean, we can run
Today can last another million years
Today could be the end of me
It's 11:59, and I want to stay alive
Hanging on a frequency and burning like a fire
Boy you've got the motion down, it's getting late, I'm tired and I've lost control
Don't leave me here, time is running out
Take me down the highway like a rocket to the ocean, we can run
Today can last another million years
Today could be the end of me
It's 11:59, and I want to stay alive
Now I finally know the words to that song! You shoulda heard what I thought she was saying!
ReplyDeleteThere's a load of meaning in the 11:59!
ReplyDeleteI have always loved Blondie, but i have never heard that song! Very cool! She really does look damn good for her age! When I grow up, I want to look just like her! LOL!
ReplyDeleteDamn, that's a mighty fine job with a knife... 63??!!! When I grow up I wanna be hot like that!

@Brndoutw8ress,
ReplyDeleteYou and me both! I always thought the first line was, da da da da hhmm hmm la la...
@Secretia,
But the rest?
@Collette,
You never heard this song? I think it may have been the flip side to heart of glass or something.
@Fierce,
Hey, I want to look like her now!
I knew we were connected. "Dreaming is Free" is one of my anthems and I love love love this song.
ReplyDeleteBlonde is definitely a thread in the fabric of my heart. Thanks for this!
God, I feel old. xxoo
Are you SURE that photo from 2009 isn't really from 1990 or at least photoshopped?!! DANG... She looks BETTER than me and I'm 43!!!! HELP!!!!!!!! EMAIL that plastic surgeons phone number PLEASE!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHey Chrissy, I didn't know this one either, it's an interesting lyric. A quick check reveals it's from PARALLEL LINES and was the B-Side to the US release of their single HEART OF GLASS. Which I must go listen to now, as well as my personal fave, ATOMIC! I may even go take a shower so I can sing along... (best pub-singer voice) "Oh, oh your hair is byooootiful..." Indigo
ReplyDeleteAh...memories. Thanks for taking me back to a time when my boobs didn't sag, my stomach was flat, my hair was 100% gray-free and I still thought I had a chance with Jon Bonjovi.
ReplyDeleteWow, Blondie is looking pretty damn good for her age. A MILF for sure!
ReplyDeleteShe's definitely looking good! I think she's coming full circle look-wise back to her roots. She probably decided that it has come around again...just like fashion always does!
