Blondie: Rapture (live 2010 NYC; sick!)

7:55 / 6317 view
www.blondie.net Blondie is a band, not a person! What a privilege it is to see Blondie; they are Hall of Famers amongst Hall of Famers; Mount Rushmore-status in rock 'n' roll histoire! Blondie came and conquered New York City again; played a highly energetic concert on 31 August 2010. The band fed off of the crowd's energy and love, and the crowd in turn fed off of the band's energy and joy in playing this gig. Even though other shows on this tour have been booked in significantly larger venues this tour's only New York City show was intentionally booked into an intimate venue in the Times Square district. "Rapture" was released in January 1981 and reached #1 on both the USA and UK pop charts. It was the second and final single to be released from the band's 1980 album Autoamerican, the first being "The Tide Is High", which had also topped the charts in the US and UK. The B-side was "Walk Like Me", also from Autoamerican. "Rapture" was the first #1 hit in the US to feature rapping, and was written by Deborah Harry & Chris Stein. Clem Burke is probably one of the four or five greatest drummers in rock 'n' roll history, a perpetual motion machine, a force of nature; what a treat to see him up close! He is the engine that powers Blondie. www.blondie.net

If any copyright holder has a problem with this video please send me a message and I will take it down. I do not mean any harm with this. Its simply for Blondie fans to enjoy and help spread the word about Blondie's new studio album, Panic Of Girls. Lyrics by Deborah Harry: In a patent leather life I was foolish, you were right All night rookies pass the time Looking for somewhere to go Shiny boots all up their thighs Chorus: Mother - in the night Calling you, calling you Mother - in the night Where are you, where are you now Mother's left the building We're the missing children Mother - in the night Where are you, where are you tonight Mother may I stay all night Lift your curfew like the light Collars turned against the cold Looking for someone to hold In your patent leather night Chorus Now that I can't remember I need you more then ever Why can't we be together - always Chorus

Blondie/Chic-The Jam Was Moving-May 11, 1981 (live)

4:31 / 722 view
This was recorded live at Bond's International Casino on May 11, 1981 at a benefit show for Anya Phillips. The band featured Debbie Harry, Chris Stein and Jimmy Destri from Blondie, Nile Rodgers, Bernard Edwards and Tony Thompson from Chic, and Walter Stedding. They performed three songs, Rapture (the earliest public performance of this song), The Jam Was Moving from Debbie Harry's upcoming solo album, and finally a medley of Good Times and Rapper's Delight. For the final song the band was joined on stage by rappers Fab Five Freddy and the Funky Four Plus One, who engaged in a rap jam. This show occurred a few weeks before the famous series of Clash shows at Bonds which featured rap/hip hop acts, and is likely the first rock/rap fusion ever recorded. This is an audience recording, but the quality is fairly decent.

It reached number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US, number 22 on the UK singles charts and number 7 in the Netherlands. Overview According to band member Robby Krieger, it was inspired by the song "(Ghost) Riders in the Sky: A Cowboy Legend." The song is played in the E Dorian mode, and incorporates real sound effects of thunder and rain, along with Ray Manzarek's Fender Rhodes electric piano playing, which emulates the sound of rain. The song was recorded at the Doors Workshop in December 1970 with the assistance of Bruce Botnick, their longtime engineer, who was co-producing the recording sessions. Jim Morrison recorded his main vocals and then whispered the lyrics over them to create the echo effect. This was the last song recorded by the members of The Doors, according to Manzarek, as well as Morrison's last recorded song to be released. The single was released in 1971, shortly before Morrison's death, entering the Hot 100 on 3 July 1971 <b>...</b>

"LaRCS" stands for "Live and Record Combined Stereo", which means that on the left you can hear a live performance, while on the right the clip version. Regarding this video, the background music is the same. On the right you can see and hear the Blondie's/Debbie Harry's grand classic "Rapture" (from 1981), while on the left a minute tribute from Kylie Minogue and Justin Timberlake at the Brit Awards (2003). I'm very pleased that Kylie performed this song, because it is one of my all time favourites :-)! (Please note the similarity of the hair styles and the dresses of Debbie and Kylie. This can't be accidental!) This performance was an excellent precursor for the Ultimate Icon Award, that was presented to Debbie this year (3rd November, 2011) by Kylie!!! www.youtube.com www.youtube.com www.youtube.com

Blondie/Chic-Rapture-May 11, 1981 (live)

Los éxitos de 1980 continúan en el presente video. Una fuerte ola de grupos de Pop y New Wave han llegado al mundo de la música de los 80's para quedarse, es por eso que tenemos a grupos como OMD quienes ya habían tenido participación en los 70's con alguno que otro HIT, pero ahora su estilo tiene más New Wave que Synth-Pop. Electric Light Orchestra siguió conservando su estilo que lo hizo popular a finales de los años 70, y eso lo demuestra en algunos temas que estuvieron en el Sountrack de la película Xanadú. Y hablando de ésta película......ahí también participó Olivia Newton-John aunque el presente tema llamado "Mágico" no forma parte de ese disco; cabe destacar el tema de "Mágico" de la señora O.Newton-John porque fué uno de los más grandes éxitos no solamente de ella sino a lo largo de la década ochentera. Blondie seguía demostrando de lo que era capaz con super temas como el de "Rapto". Los Rolling Stones reaparecen en el mundo de los HITS con un tema muy ochentero con lo que nos dan a entender de que ellos no solo fueron populares en los 60's y en los inicios de los 70's sino que también a inicios de los 80's. Las Go Go's (encabezadas por la que posteriormente la haría de solita "Belinda Carlisle") también demuestran que las mujeres en equipo y en el ámbito musical New Wave son capaces de alcanzar buenas posiciones en los Charts. Visage es uno de los primeros que destaca con estilos de Electronica en la década, este es un tema muy muy agradable para los amantes y <b>...</b>
