WTIT: The Blog

Welcome to Rock ‘n Roll Fridays on WTIT: The Blog. This meme appealed to us because of a twist in its concept. Each week DJ KathyA (its host) picks a rock band, artist or era. She digs up thirteen quotes from the song lyrics and asks her questions based on the quotes.  Let’s do it.

Rock ‘n Roll Fridays: Blondie

1. HANGING ON THE TELEPHONE : “ You’ve got me hangin on the telephone…”
Have you ever fallen asleep while talking on the phone? No. Have you ever fallen asleep during sex? Your turn.

2. ONE WAY OR ANOTHER : “One way or another, I’m gonna find ya. I’m gonna get ya , I’ll get ya…”
Where is the oddest place you agreed to meet someone? A Starbucks. I shoulda known better. Had she had the least bit of class we would have been at Dunkin’.

3. PRETTY BABY : “Pretty baby, you look so heavenly. A neo nebula from under the sun…”

Yes I know who I looked like. I get that a lot.

4. RIP HER TO SHREDS : “Check out those shoes. She looks like she stepped out of the middle of somebody’s blues. She looks like the Sunday comics, she thinks she’s Brenda Starr…”
Who did you last rip apart or gossip about? Okay. I was the one who wrote on the bathroom wall, “Sarah Palin is a stupid fucking asshole.”

5. ATOMIC : “Oh, oh heart make it magnificent. Tonight , tonight….”
Do you believe in nuclear energy? If not, what type of power do you prefer? The Power of Love. By Huey Lewis.

6. PICTURE THIS : “All I want is a photo in my wallet. A small remembrance of something more solid. All I want is a picture of you.”
Are you into photography? What do you usually photograph? No, so no. Kathy takes the photos.

7. DENIS : “Denis Denis I’m so in love with you. You’re my king. I’m in heaven every time I look at you…”
What is your favorite name that is used by both boys and girls (Example: Jean/Gene)? Fred. What? I’ll try again. Joanne. What? I’ll try again. Gongerling. Whew. I knew you’d like that one.

8. UNION CITY BLUE : “Oh ho, oh ho, what are we gonna do? Union, union, union city blue. Tunnel to the other side. It becomes daylight.”Are you in a union? Do you believe in them? No. And no. I mean now. They were very important back in the day, however.

9. HEART OF GLASS : “Love is so confusing there’s no peace of mind. If I fear I’m losing you, it’s just no good. You teasing like you do…”
When was the last time you teased someone? Today.

10. DREAMING : “Dream, dream. Even fir a little while. Dream, dream. Filling up an idle hour. Fade away….radiate…”
What do you daydream about? Sex.

11. CALL ME : “Cover me with kisses baby, cover me with love. Roll me in designer sheets, I’ll never get enough…”
Should prostitution be legal? Why or why not? They’ve got to stop prosecuting victimless crimes. Same with drugs and gambling. I’d much rather the police concentrated on murders, assaults and terrorism.

12. RAPTURE : “Fab Five Freddy told me everybody’s fly…”
Who is your favorite rap artist, or if you don’t like rap music, what about it do you dislike? No. And I prefer songs to have, say, melodies.

13. EAT TO THE BEAT : “Hey you gotta tummy ache, and I remember sitting in the bathroom drinking up a seltzer. Eat to the beat…”
When was the last time you had a tummy ache and what caused it? It was the day Jill Hennessy got married. But, I have no idea what caused it. We will return with Crazy Sam’s Saturday 9.
