Today I am going to share a song which it is called "Heart of Glass" with you guys, It is a song by American New Wave Band Blondie, This song was written by Debbie Harry (Vocalist) and Chris Stein (Guitarist) of the band. This song was released in 1979 as one of the songs from their 3rd studio album and the album called Parallel Lines.

The song starts with a sampled percussion like samba songs which it will play along the whole song, this genre has elements from Rock music which we can hear it in the Electric Guitar and Bass lines, Debbie starts the verse with high notes, the synth parts in the verse adds a nice feeling to the verse sections, the chorus parts of this song is different than usual songs, in the chorus parts the vocals perform lower notes and there is also male back vocals in that section, the melodies and chords progressions of this song was done perfectly and is special. there are some funky style of guitar performances in this music, in the solo section though it is simple but the time signature is not as usual and it made it special. the songs ends with Blondie's singing choral parts and some nice drums fills.

HI, you’re probably less familiar with its earlier form, “Once I had a Love (The Disco Song),” which is track six. It was recorded in 1975 and has a much groovier feel than the 1980’s bop, but the lyrics and melody are virtually the same.

Thanks for adding it here, I haven't heard this one, This is a an awesome performance :) \m/
