CSI: "Out In The Street" - Blondie



If you would have been along for the ride with me this past weekend - driving around doing errands and such - you would've heard this track, oh, about half a dozen times. Maybe more. My current song infatuation, Blondie's version of the Shangri-Las' classic "Out In The Street":


Out In The Street - Blondie


Her voice on this early demo recording is so lovely, so fragile. And I love the '50s greaser imagery applied to '70s punk rockers:


He don't comb his hair like he did before,
He don't wear those dirty old black boots no more...


Devastating.
