'Heart of glass' - perhaps because of the lyrics - 'Pain in the *ss' and because it was so different to their other music?

I give up!

I have Best of Blondie in my hand and have just googled every track which have all been on other Blondie albums.

I wonder whether there is another album of the same name? Mine has a bluey cover and is dated 1983.

I'm fairly certain that it was 'Call Me'. I can't remember the reason why though.

Sorry i used my ask a friend

Call Me.....it was used as the title theme for American Gigolo

Fiona yes it was 'Call Me'
Julie yes it was the title theme for American Gigolo

but the main reason for it not being on an original album is that it wasn't written by a Blondie band member all the others were.
