Another classic from Parallel Lines. Like "The Tide is High," this was a cover - the original was by The Nerves. I love the urgency of the climax: Hang up and run to me!

My second favorite Blondie song behind "Rapture". #5 in the UK in 1978.

I didn't know that Blondie was popular in the UK first.

Blondie had a knack for great covers, most of them greatly improved the originals IMO. A really fun and punchy song.
