'The Tide is High' |
'Blondie'
40 year anniversary for this album in September |

I had just read Chris Knowles' latest 'Secret Sun' post, as well, so the archetypal siren theme was well and truly swimming in my mind as I looked into the themes in 'Blondie' and Deborah Harry's work -
Meet Your New Gods 3: Mermaid Apocalypse Now!
In my ignorance I always thought the name Blondie was what the lead singer went under, not the name of the whole band.
Angela
Angel.
Origin: French, Spanish, American, Italian, Latin, Greek
I'm not suggesting that 'Blondie' is some engineered band to pull the wool over the masses, but in hindsight they have tapped into something on a "collective unconscious" Jungian level it seems.
Hmm ... I see two very big "Parallel Lines" in the 'Heart of Glass' clip above, too;-)
I find the track listing on 'Parallel Lines' interesting too in hindsight, knowing what we know now about the fate of those two big parallel lines at the start of the 'Heart of Glass' video.
"Picture this, a sky full of thunder
Picture this, my telephone number
One and one is what I'm telling you, oh yeah"
Probably a good thing the month in 'Picture This' was December and not September, I think.
And 11:59?
The metaphorical one minute to midnight?
"I'm gonna hear bells ring"?
For whom?
Please Kill Me?
I just want to mention another synchronicity ... or coincidence that I read in the news today involving the name Valentine.

The 40th anniversary for this album 'Parallel Lines' falls this September |
In case of fire break glass/siren? |
Picture this, my telephone number
One and one is what I'm telling you, oh yeah"
Picture this, a sky full of thunder, telephone number (911)? |
Picture this?! |
The metaphorical one minute to midnight?
'I'm Gonna Love You Too' is a Buddy Holly cover and of course he died in a plane crash -
"Shortly after 1:00 am on February 3, 1959, Holly, Valens, Richardson, and Peterson were killed instantly when their plane crashed into a cornfield five miles northwest of the Mason City, Iowa airport shortly after takeoff"For whom?

Kate Spade, fashion designer, found dead in her New York apartment at 55
Queen of hearts? |
"Kate Valentine (born Katherine Noel Brosnahan; December 24, 1962 – June 5, 2018), known professionally as Kate Spade."
Gary and Kate were both born on December 24th.
Gary was born in '55 and is 62, Kate was born in '62 and was 55.
God may not play dice, but does run one heck of a poker game it seems.
UPDATE: June 7th, 2018
Speak of the ... X-Blondie ... himself, this morning I caught the first part of Gary's talk with Miguel Conner at the 'Aeon Byte Gnostic Radio' site, which you can hear in the You Tube below.
