Blondie - Heart Of Glass 12' Single

12-inch single

The song that burst Blondie out of the streets of the Bowery to No. 1 on the charts, "Heart of Glass" was the pivotal moment in punk's choreographed slamdance with the mainstream. Inspired by Kraftwerk and Giorgio Moroder, Blondie transformed their campy "Disco Song" into a Roland-driven juggernaut and never looked back.

Explored and exploded via six distinct versions remastered from the original analog tapes, the history of "Heart of Glass" is documented here in a copious essay and it's art reimagined by noted American illustrator Shepard Fairey.

"With me it's a psychic thing that has to do with the beat. The 4/4 heartbeat rhythm has a calming effect on the listener. It's popular because it's biological." — Debbie Harry
