- From The Midnight Special - 1/19/79 - Blondie: Deborah Harry - Vocals & looking ridiculously hot; Clem Burke - Drums; Chris Stein - Guitar; Frank Infante - Guitar; Jimmy Destri - Keyboards; Nigel Harrison - Bass.
You know that somebody has style when they still look cool 40 years later.
Nailed it!
And Deborah Harry was already into her 30's then!
Exacto! Especially noticeable when they cut to the crowd with those big collars and convulsive dance moves. 😁
60 year old Dan agrees. She's timeless
When bands actually played live on music shows !
Actually, that’s more common now than it was then. SNL, Midnight Special and Don Kirschner’s Rock Concert were the outliers with live music.
And we saw every show it was so cheap
One of those songs you wish lasted longer.
It's actually a cover version
The energy, the sound, the style. What an era. I’m speechless 😶. Thanks for this !
My life!!!
One hell of an album opener. Blondie’s 1978 classic ‘Parallel Lines’ blams into life with ‘Hanging On The Telephone’, a pummeling war horse of a track written in 1973 by Jack Lee but first surfacing on his band The Nerves’ debut EP in 1976.
Blondie’s version is strung-out, pleading and strident, and it’s impossible to ignore Debbie Harry’ siren call.
Punk rock 4ever!
Nerves were a great band that also featured Peter Case of the Plimsouls and Paul Collins of the Paul Collins Beat!
WORD
I heard the nerves version when my friend told me the nerves performed it..... Nobody could ever do better version than these guys
Chris Stein was one lucky bloke....
My first rock n roll crush! Over 40 years later, I am not confused as to why that was!
Chill out Marjorie
Debbie is such an excellent singer....fabulous!
Thank God for Debbie Harry.
hitlers dog was called blondie WTF
Thanks for a meaningless reference@@garymartin9921
Much, much much better than today's trash, like swift, lady gaga etc. mainstream junk !
living legend, Deborah Harry
That feedback at 1:24 is subtly epic ...
Oh i can't control myself ...
I love how on Midnight Special half the bands and 85 percent of the crowd are coked out of their gourds.
And you know this how?
@@joebobb7349
Who wasn't? And YOU know this how?
@@rudolphguarnacci197 I didn't make the accusation. You did. It's on you to to provide the evidence.
@@joebobb7349
Sure, Joe Bobb, sure.
@@joebobb7349 00:43 should be a clue. The bloke is trying to screw his own head off!
Blonde in her element.❤
A very cool moment in the annals of rock n roll music
Gives me goosebumps. Amazing.
Me too❤
what a beautiful lady
What a goddess
Too fucking great 😌
No one like her 😮
Raw rock with a beautiful voice!
What more do you need?
Brilliant.
Fucking awesome!
I ❤ really love Blondie since I was a young kid end of the 70th in GDR behind the iron curtain!
Fuck YESS!!
I wish it never stopped
FAB :)
SO gorgeous!
got to laugh at the in-house "disco" dancers trying to dance to it 😁
The Nerves!!!
Awesome!
OMG the dancers taking turns on the showcase platform are making me crazy😂🤣
thx for posting
This song was a cover by Jack Lee of the proto punk band The Nerves. Both versions are great. Lots going on in the '70s under the surface.
The tempo is substantially faster than the record and we all know exactly why 🎉
I'd like to buy the world a Coke, it's the real thing
Bootiful prozzy....
At least it sounds like a Live Performance, not a Lip Sync
@0.44 - 0.48 Is that Werewolf Wally, I mean Wolfman Jack, in the Background?
yep, that would be Robert Weston Smith, aka Wolfman Jack good eye
The disco kids of the day didn't know how to dance to this..lol
Perfect
No one else is sass bags what a babe
1:25 - 1:34 might be the greatest ever.
Прелесть, кудряшки ей идут явно
Хороша в любых образах)
Hang up and run to me!
1:53...😂😂😂the guy is going mad with the music, doesn't know what to do next - total freestyle.
She was one Hot Lil Minky !!
Bloody autocorrect....beautiful, probably.
WWWAAAAHHHHHHHHH
Words fail.
That awkward moment when disco tried very hard to keep up with the emergence of US punk
Awkward? It frigging rocks
Dancers are embarrassing to look at, haven't aged well -- but this band looks fresh, new ... all these years later. Of course, Debbie Harry with that voice, is perfect
BLONDIE A SUPERB BAND DEBBIE HARRY AWESOME AND FIT WITH NO PLASTIC SURGERY BETTER THAN MILEY AND BRITTANY CRAP 💩
Don’t like that they keep going back to the dancers …I want to see the band !!
Totally agree, cameramen obviously never listened to Burke's drumming before
Probably, the television directors fault.
Somehow that dancing doesn't go with this awesome song... my favorite from Blondie along with Will Anything Happen
This is PUNK. not disco, silly rabbits
This goes beyond any label. this song is like no other and is totally unique defying classification. Wouldn't the best songs from any era
At the time, when rock was still alive, Blondie was called New Wave.
Years later, renamed Alternative. Now, where I live in Connecticut, Blondie is too old for Alternative radio station(that has 90's weekends), it's played on Classic Rock station.
Blondie song,"Rapture" called first song, with Rap lyrics, to hit American charts, as a number one single.
Hanging on the telephone to meet the coke dealer
A Nerves cover but better
Les transpoèmes entendent plaider pour la plasticité du poétique. Ni poésie sonore ni poésie écrite ni même poésie mixte mais une poésie dont le se modifie en fonction des collaborations
Believe it or not, Deborah Harry Blondie was a minor in elementary school and age appropriate to grade when this was filmed more than 50 years ago. This song was based on an advertising jingle attributed to Harry and perhaps Bob Dylan. There are tons of fakes out there that are still robbing young performers blind. Harry and Dylan were strong writing duo.
not. when the song was recorded debbie was 31 years old when blondie recorded it in 1976. . Jack Lee wrote the song for a group called The Nerves, and he let blondie cover it when he was in financial trouble. it saved him from poverty.
@@mrdasbruce Yeah, I didn't even understand what he wrote, since it is pretty well known that Debbie was kind of old-ish, they always wrote about that, how she was older than the others in the group, despite she seemed young. She's about 5 years older than Stein, and 9 years older than Burke!
This has to be the absolute worst of her usually great hairstyles.
