Today marks the 80th birthday of music and arts icon, Deborah Harry.
We're big fans here at The Signal Watch, and have seen Blondie twice to date.
Last week we were at my brother's house and my eight year old niece came out in a Blondie shirt, and I was like "hey, what?" Apparently she heard Debbie's solo effort song "French Kissin' in the USA" and was spellbound. The parents weren't thrilled with the content, but nonetheless, my niece knows a bop when she hears one. And, thus, two days later my SIL was at Target, saw the shirt, and bought it for B.
What a world when there's a kid's Blondie shirt at the Target.
I tried to school B on the superior drumming of Clem Burke via "Atomic", but I think she just wanted me to shut up.
Anyway, B and I have now bonded over Blondie. Happy birthday, Debbie. We hope you have a great one.
