I love Blondie, especially the early albums. This makes me feel embarrased for them...

It's not that bad. But "not that bad" isn't how you should be describing a song by the band that did "Rip Her to Shreds", "One Way or Another", and "Dreaming". Christmas singles by heritage acts always seem like a desperate ploy to me.

And I hadn't realized that "Rip Her to Shreds" was so darned revolutionary. I'm pretty sure Debbie Harry would tell you is was consciously retro (Robert Hall sweater, Brenda Starr) and purposefully dumb/self-mocking. Blondie never did much that was really new. I don't mean that as an insult, though.

Well, here's the question, then. Is Rock and Roll only about youth? Are there any sexagenarians who could make a legitimate stab at relevancy these days, or does the door shut after 35 or so? I'm not talking about touring for touring sake (Stones? Lookin' at you) but writing and recording new music.

And if the door does shut, is rock and roll worth any damn thing?

Beethoven and Johnny Cash died with their instruments beneath their fingers, some of their greatest works coming at the end. (Did I just compare The American Recordings to the Late Quartets? Yeeesh.)

(OK, it's a chrimmas song, and those are universally panned by serious rock fans as being beneath the dignity of their favorite acts, so it might not be the proper venue to ask. I thought it was fun and well executed, but I wasn't "OMFG Blondie!" or anything.)

Not only was Blondie hip to hip-hop back when you were listening to Devo, they made the first music video with a helicopter shot. So, a little respect please.

Since Parallel Lines was the first record I ever bought for myself, I probably can't be objective. But as novelty holiday singles go, this is far from an embarrassment.

I'm a musical heathen by Metafilter standards (favorite band: U2, also likes Death Cab, Sufjan, and Decemberists), but I liked Dylan's Time Out of Mind quite a bit. His Christmas album? Not so much.

It's not getting old that matters, it's what you do when you get old.

"Are there any sexagenarians who could make a legitimate stab at relevancy these days, or does the door shut after 35 or so? I'm not talking about touring for touring sake (Stones? Lookin' at you) but writing and recording new music."

Scott Walker and Robert Wyatt both made critically acclaimed, relevant albums last year, and both are over 60. I happen to not like Walker's very much, but I can recognize that it's still pushing boundaries and going to be influential, even if it's not the kind of music I like. Wyatt's Comicopera wasn't the most avant stuff he's ever done, but folks interested in post-rock should give it a listen; it's B+ stuff. Mark E. Smith is "only" 52, but still puts out challenging new music, including a collaboration with Mouse on Mars a couple years back that was really good. Whether new Fall albums are any different than old Fall albums is kind of an exercise left to the listener. In the world of jazz, William Parker is nearly 60 and still expanding the world of music.

Relevancy is different in the avant world than in the pop world—there are still ideas that came out in the '50s that haven't been assimilated to the point of irrelevancy yet. But in the pop world, things happen like Debbie Harry largely losing her vocal range (something that hasn't happened to Patti Smith, in part because Smith didn't rely as much on her range to begin with), and the folks that have had real longevity tend to be producers and executives—Clive Davis and Quincy Jones are still relevant to pop.

During a 1998 interview with VH1 on a Behind the Music documentary featuring Jefferson Airplane, Slick, who was never shy about giving her age, stated that the main reason she retired from the music business was that "all rock-and-rollers over the age of 50 look stupid and should retire."

Grace Slick knows a lot more about rock-and-roll than any of us. So I'm going to defer to her on this one.

Um, if you're using Devo as shorthand for "unhip", you might want to re-think that. Devo and Blondie were playing shows at Max's Kansas City and CBGB around the same time, probably on some of the same bills.

And Bowie and Iggy were huge early fans, got them signed to Warner, and got Brian Eno to produce their first LP. And John Lydon made a serious offer to ditch PiL, join Devo and become their frontman. And and and... You should have just said "Haircut 100".

David Byrne's not quite there yet, but he'll be relevant to arthouse music 'til the end of days.

He's about to release a 2-CD set of a musical about Imelda Marcos' life that he wrote with Fatboy Slim, and one of the songs will be sung as a duet by Tori Amos and Cyndi Lauper. Now that's an interesting direction for an 80's pop starlet to go. Debbie should have tied herself to projects like this.

I'm not a particular fan of Jeremy Clarkson (UK TV car presenter and blokish Times writer ) but here he is on Xmas music, Bob Dylan - with a reference to a priceless John Denver offering...)

Even when he’s doing a happy song, [Dylan] always manages to sound so bloody miserable, like a widower trying to be cheerful at his wife’s funeral. And when he’s being down in the dumps, which is usually, I can’t understand why he would want to inflict his bad mood on everyone else. If I want to feel sad, I’ll poison my donkeys. It’d be better than listening to Bob droning on.

But that’s enough about Bob, because while listening to the chief miserablist’s awful collection of Christmas songs, one of which seems to suggest that one of Santa’s reindeers is called Clinton, I began to wonder what had been the worst Christmas song of all time.

Bob, we must remember, is by no means the first big-name star to take the yuletide shilling and bash something out for the world’s Xmas stockings. Who, for instance, can forget Bruce Springsteen’s Santa Claus Is Coming to Town or Madonna’s Santa Baby or John Denver’s Please, Daddy (Don’t Get Drunk This Christmas). Quite something from a man who had two drink-driving arrests to his name.

But the winner of the Surely You Don’t Need the Money award must be Ringo Starr for his 1999 collection of Christmas songs, one of which, I seem to recall, contained the lyric: “It’s been around since you know when.” Er, didn’t “the year dot” rhyme?...

I'll grant you 'white,' but calling Devo rhythm-less is like suggesting that Public Enemy's work lacked political content.

Let's take a moment to enjoy some genuine 7/8 time... "Jocko Homo."

Now, were you to argue that post 1982-Devo was rhythm-less, I'd still disagree since those drum machines could really keep a beat, but I'd argue the same was true for post-"Rapture" Blondie.

For what it's worth, their reunion stuff has actually sold really well worldwide, except North America (where it may have done decently, but certainly didn't top the charts.) I'm always shocked when I go to Europe and hear 'new' Blondie stuff everywhere, especially in Eastern Europe, where the (original era) band meant very little. So, kudos to them.

At least they didn't play it straight - this sounded just like the Blondie of days, except it's a very clumsy song to cover in that style. But it's no worse than (say) Siouxsie & the Banshees' cover of "Il Est Né Le Divin Enfant."

My iTunes went straight from 3 Kings to Eat to the Beat. I kind of like 3 Kings but it suffers from the same problem of all recent productions. Perfectly quantized drumming and auto-tune vocals. Clem Burke is one of my favorite drummers, but the drumming on 3 Kings sounds like clockwork. It could be anyone drumming. Debby hits every note, missing all the tension in her old songs.

And I save all Christmas songs for just one month of the year. Not even a month. And then I revel in them. So I get where you're coming from.

It does kinda feel like someone trying to create a Blondie pastiche'. There are moments where it really sounds like Blondie, but man what is up with Debbie's voice? She sounds awful at points, like she's about to croak out a Marriane Faithful. The song keeps wanting to go big but it's stuck to the ground by the vocal.
