Her voice will not ever be drowned out. Its a beautiful commanding voice its ip there with aretha franklin imo

[@jeffmorse645]

Debbie Harry is the only person who could wear a black plastic garbage bag and make it look good. "Eat to the Beat" is such a great album. Bought it on vinyl when it first came out (just graduated high school) and I was absolutely stunned by it. Literally played it until it was shot. Dreaming, Shayla and Union City Blue are some more great ones from it.

[@sirjohnmara]

Soooooooooooooooooooooo Gooooooooooooooooooooood!

[@sirjohnmara]

02:52 Dereck "fingers" in the video and also Dereck's reacting fingers rythm-feel - all at the same time! Have not seen that before.

[@fgilroy50]

Oh come on! How do you not get this band?

[@m.r.pop.reacts4436]

Call Me and Hanging on the Telephone next please!

[@ronda.8624]

Sandra. MARIA MAGDALENA

[@Muckylittleme]

Debbie Harry, stunning.

[@flugsven]

Loved her voice 🙋🏼‍♀️

[@gymratcarpediem7761]

Of all the 11 Blondie albums this one is my favorite - Eat to the Beat

[@RobDeManc]

This track is so unique. I don't think anything like it has been made before or since.

[@thenortherner3890]

Clement Burke - one of the most under rated drummers on the planet!

[@rajanajovovic6184]

Yes

[@emielvandenhoek4295]

Clem Burke is the best drummer ever!!!!!

[@carlh429]

Had a massive teenage crush on Debbie Harry in the late 70s. There are many things about my younger self that I could curse about all day long but damn he had good taste.

[@richie6921]

I love the synth the bass the guitar, And the drums. This is by far the best Blondie song and one of the best songs EVER made

[@nickmorrell3559]

Thanks for doing this derek ...she's such a star

[@andyeql]

At last! I've be so waiting for someone to react to this. One of my all time favourites! Amazing song! As you have such good taste in music, my gift to you is Fine Young Cannibals - Jonny come home. No-one on youtube has done it yet. Enjoy!

[@LisaLoo212]

Debbie Harrie.. the only lady who makes a bin bag look designer this song was very tangerine dream 💕🇬🇧

[@nickmorrell3559]

Love Blondie and tangerine dream ..good call

[@Frightspear]

Debbie sings “oh your hair is beautiful” like hers and our lives depend on it 😍 One of the great pop songs!!!

[@TauriwarriorSG1]

Dont forget Clem Burke, the best drummer in the world and a drummer defines the tempo of the whole band.

[@algarvio7910]

Blondie without him is not BLONDIE. Period.

[@MrPaulMorris]

Often overlooked, Clem works at tremendous rate and is the backbone of pretty much all of the Blondie output. While Debbie Harry was the face and voice of Blondie, it was Clem who was the heartbeat that drove it on.

[@flugsven]

He's lagend ✨

[@thenortherner3890]

To true Clem one of the most under rated drummers in the world!

[@catschorus4684]

Among many firsts that Blondie achieved was that they were the first band to record and release a video album of their lp Eat to the Beat from which Atomic is taken. The video is supposed to be about after blast freaks. It was meant to be the last disco record! The band said the track was lying around like a dead fish until they added the spaghetti western guitar which gives it the distinctive sound. Also she's wearing a trash bag lol.

[@garytaylor6408]

Debbie Harry is fantastic but Clem Burke on drums is widely acknowledged as one of the best drummers of all time.

[@opicatchu2164]

Blondie is so unique in the musical history....!! 👌👌

[@rajanajovovic6184]

Yes

[@danielsegen]

Love Blondie.... I suggest you react to Call me and One way or another...

[@-.Noir.-]

I'm 21 and I've met the drummer from blondie, probably one of the soundest guys you'll ever meet.

[@nickmorrell3559]

Me too .Clem was a nice man ..a gent ..

[@janahcoaching]

Blondie is great, it did inspire many other artists.

[@rebelheartcr8599]

Hey, Dereck! Fun fact: The "jacket" that Debbie Harry wore in the Atomic video was made out of a bin bag. Also, you are right when you mention the Western movie sound of Atomic because precisely that was one of the inspirations behind Atomic.

[@nickmorrell3559]

Your right. .she's unique ..her style was not really bothering with a style .if the t shirt had holes .she didn't care ..ladered tights ..no skirt ...bin bag ...yas ma'am ....love the harry ...

[@mikedignum1868]

Even the bin liner looks good on here.

[@Marchant2]

Debbie Harry was a game changer. Before her, there were no glamour rock goddesses who were as beautiful as the music they created.

[@algarvio7910]

You can try a lot of stuff less known than HEART OF GLASS, RAPTURE, CALL ME or ATOMIC. Give a chance to ENGLISH BOYS, NOTHING IS REAL BUT THE GIRL, LONG TIME, WAR CHILD, XOFFENDER, MOTHER, LONG TIME (2017) and the list goes on...😀

[@VandelayIndustriesWorldWide]

Love Blondie. For some reason this song reminds me of the song Twilight Zone by Golden Earring. I could recommend Blondie songs but if you haven't heard Twilight Zone by Golden Earring check it out bro.

[@stansolo4138]

Next up is " PICTURE THIS " by Blondie

[@j0hnf_uk]

This has got early 80's written all over it. A period that threw up quite a few genres.

[@jacquelineoconnor7234]

Great choice! Union City Blue and Dreaming next !

[@emielvandenhoek4295]

One of my favourite songs of Blondie!!! I was fortunate to see them 4 times in the Netherlands 🇳🇱 the biggest fan from Europe.....greetings from the Netherlands

[@Caprizonica]

Try Dreaming, One way or another, Sunday Girl, and for rare vocal emotion, a ballad, Shayla. All of her songs are really good I swear.

[@dmb107]

'79 mescalin...your hair is beautiful. Atomic. Shivers. Now, today even shivers, decades later.

[@YourBeingParanoid]

Love the bass on this

[@louisaklimentos7583]

I love Blonde . Her music is amazing

[@bpfromowc]

Atomic is one of the best songs of the 80's, it's iconic. Great reaction Dereck. Let me ask you, have you heard of Boney M ? They were responsible for some of the best disco songs of the 70's. One of their very best songs is called "Rivers of Babylon", they did an amazing version of it at the Sopot Festival, in 1979. It is truly stunning. Please, please, please, react to it. You won't regret it & you will become a fan INSTANTLY. THANKS, from Belfast, Northern Ireland. 🙂

[@Kelly-just-kelly]

their best song is belfast.....but you should already know that !

[@themajesticmagnificent386]

Don’t drive to Atomic or Heart of Glass by Blonde..You’ll either end up with a speeding ticket or your keep driving forever… Great reaction video and glad you liked Blonde..All the best from the U.K🇬🇧🇺🇸👍

[@anthonyriley4398]

I think you hit this reaction on the head. Their drummer Clem Burke is amazing watch them live he definitely mastered his craft. Fun fact debbie Harry is considered to be the 1st female rapper if not the 1st person to rap, listen their song Rapture from 1981 👍

[@sexysadie2901]

Please, she was not the first one, "Rapper's Delight"?

[@wijnandvandenberg4805]

The sound makes you become part of it. Reminds me of nights in the disco in the 80's. Like another world experience that lasts forever. S omehow gives me goosebumps even in 2022. Gia Carrangi dances in this video. She was a fan of Blondie's music. Check out the movie "Gia" made about her tragic life as a model. Great stuff

[@tamaradelempickafacebook]

Blondies new song ""Fun" 🔥💕

[@dorojessy6932]

Blondie has catchy songs!!

[@benabel7326]

And with that Mark Renton was in love.

[@drunk1998]

the greatest 80's track ever, I go nut when dancing it in clubs!

[@Bananadiva1]

only Deborah Harry could look that stunning wearing a bin bag!

[@anthonysmith9920]

Ace track.....dedicate to a classmate I never told her......."Oh your hair is beautiful"

[@albertomartinez5927]

Debbie Harry fue mi amor imposible, hermosa voz. El single Atomic de Blondie lo compré en 1980 cuando estaba en el colegio secundario y es la versión que más me gusta, aparte me trae lindos recuerdos de esa época, novias, fiestas de 15, día del estudiante, boliches y demás. Saludos!!

[@JoeDisch]

My favorite Blondie song (favorite song, actually): "Dreaming" (definitely go with the 1979 "Top of the Pops" performance!)

[@josbroersma6112]

Please react to Amsterdam Klezmer Band(live @ Sziget festival)- Op Een Goppe(At A Party), full concert is also a party, great musicians!

[@robertasirgutz8800]

A face that you can walk into, with the most deadpan delivery ! Clem Burke is a great drummer. Gwen, Madge, Ga Ga. No one comes close. React to "Dreaming". Thanks Derek!

[@guyinsf]

Totally agree! Atomic is superior to Heart of Glass in my opinion and HOG is already amazing on its own! Atomic followed HOG In the same fashion the album Eat to the Beat followed Parallel Lines and PL being such a massive hit put Eat to the Beat in its shadow a bit, but very unfairly so. Atomic is very modern and progressive sounding for 1979 and I would say it was. more of a proto-techno song and not so much a disco song as many would inaccurately describe it as. It does have more edge and a better melody than HOG just like you stated. I also feel that the album Eat to the Beat is a bit more superior to Parallel Lines overall but I will concede that PL and Eat to the Beat are quintessential Blondie compared to there albums before them and the ones after.

[@jackbarlow8520]

Dereck love your style and you will love Blondie The Hardest Part and IN THE Flesh

[@petersp63]

This is the Album Version the Single had an Extra Verse and not the Guitar plucking solo!

[@davidsmith8279]

My God Debbie was just STUNNING!!!

[@richardw4336]

Loving your reactions. Blondie are just great and lots to explore.

[@bobsterbiker4346]

I SUGGEST = DREAMING

[@RobertKulmanis]

Your reaction had about the same amount of words as this song 😂

[@fgilroy50]

Dude, I'm sorry but you don't get it. And if you don't get it now you will never get it.

[@ladykaycey]

I wanted to be Debbie Harry. I thought she was amazing. I was probably around 12 years old lol still love her and the band though.

[@dorojessy6932]

Atomic reminds me of the Beirut Detonation!!!

[@thegirlinquestion]

love your reactions my man x

[@allenjohnson7686]

He honestly makes me cringe.

[@JonathanCalvert-p2c]

old songs are the best.

[@CursiMusic]

Love Blondie

[@glennlennox3636]

If he lives in the USA, there is no way he has never heard this song. It is played on the radio and in supermarkets constantly.

[@guyinsf]

It sounded like he was about to say that but he didn't actually say it. I think he might have wanted to say it was his first time seeing the video but either way he didn't finish his thought.

[@DayDoDoeDontDayDoe]

Think this is THE most popular Blondie song in the UK, think its electronic sound of it which seems to go down better in Europe than the US

[@michaelmckenna7109]

They had many popular songs and lots of number one in the UK. Checkout Blondie Debbie Harry BBC The One Show great interview they show old footage of them and play most of there hits good fun. Then checkout Blondie One Show Long Time. Debbie at the age of 73yrs old. She looks amazing back in 2017.

[@irenestubbings7856]

ummmmmmmmm

[@dorojessy6932]

You should review "Rapture" by Blondie, she was the first rapper back then.

[@sexysadie2901]

You mean white female rapper.

[@Spitje67]

@@sexysadie2901 No and yes, first white rapper

[@JoseCarlos-ib6gq]

Enigma - Sadeness, Mea Culpa, Return to Innocense, The Child in Us, Amen, La Puerta Del Cielo.

[@Daliloli1]

VIVIR ASI ES MORIR DE AMOR, VERSION DE Monica Naranjo . Tambien podrias escuchar de CRISTINA RAMOS la cancion CALL ME

[@Renkk17]

the band wanted to be punk rock at the time....but commercially they still had to brake thru the disco era....Heart of Glass was suppose to be punk rock, but they were told it had to be more disco to make it on the air at the time

[@runcornbalsall130]

No !!!!!! Listen to “pretty Baby”

[@znk0r]

The drum beat is pretty sick.

[@bettiecometti8042]

I just❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕💕BLONDIE

[@benmcfly496]

Debbie forever

[@bettiecometti8042]

"Call me" , please!!

[@TELLViSiON]

It was the song chosen by Coca-Cola for their ad campaign in 1998 for the FOOTBALL* WORLD CUP (*soccer) in France, also the first time France won that championship, here's the 60 sec commercial : vimeo.com/75918605
