The Number Ones: Blondie’s “Heart Of Glass”
In The Number Ones, I'm reviewing every single #1 single in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, starting with the chart's beginning, in 1958, and working my way up into the present. *** Blondie – "Heart Of Glass" HIT #1: April 28, 1979 STAYED AT #1: 1 week It finally happened. Punk crossed over in America. It just had to become disco first. All through the mid-to-late '70s, the era of disco and soft rock, punk rock had been percolating in Manhattan clubs. But almost none of the acts that came out of that universe ever had much to do with the pop charts. Patti Smith was the outlier; she charted as high as #13 with 1978's "Because The Night," though she needed a Bruce Springsteen co-write to do it. The Ramones' biggest hit, 1977's "Rockaway Beach," only made it to #66. Television, the Heartbreakers, and Richard Hell never charted. The Talking Heads managed one top-10 single over the entire course of their career — "Burning Down The House," peaked at #9, a 9 — and it didn't arrive
