My mum is 73 and in a nursing home with dementia. Debbie is 4 years older and rocking out like someone half her age and people were complaining her voice isn't strong enough anymore. Good God, do people know what it actually is to be 77 years old? She is a phenomenon.
Well said! Debbie is phenomenal. So sorry about your mum.
Loads of oldies smash it out the park. Dead now, but Big Mama Thornton was still belting out the tunes in her old age and with cancer!
Most band would have a younger drummer on tour.
Don't quite know yet, but gonna find out pretty effen soon. Hope so, at least.
@@rollzolo Clem Burke is one of the greatest drummers of all time - he's ageless.
She is almost 80 and still rocking it like this ! Good for her
She's too old to be rocking on stage
@@lorrainedavies-jh4ck age matters. Rock is a rebellious genre. Grandmas aren't rebellious. They're just old. Their prime has come to an end.
Shes fab! Look at the haters on here! Bet they couldn't do what shes doing at her age !
@@peanuts666 really - give me oldies over annoying brats with tiny skirts going on brattishly about exes anyday with their crap songs
And are those the original band members too...? Please
In 1978 when Blondie's Parallel Lines hit the charts Glastonbury had been going for eight years and a 78 year old would have been born in the Victorian era. No one in 1978 could have anticipated a person of this age still rocking it in style at Glastonbury. My mind does summersaults thinking about it. Rock on Debbie
You're maths and observations are just brilliant! Cheers!
Life before ww2 was hard and short because we didn't knew much about healthcare and medicine and foods, so people who were 50+ were almost seniors
and 60+ people were worn out old people who looked like 80+. And that all changed after the war because everything got better and better
and there are alot of rules on the job site, so no more slave labour and 12 hour day jobs ,better food, better healthcare etc etc, so every generation is looking
younger and stay more fit than the previous generations. And the ones who are rich and can affort better foods and not having to work and have way more time
to take care of themselves live longer than poor people who don't have a dime to scratch their but with and live a hard life.
That's why i never get up when a clock tells me to, but get out of bed when my body says that i had enough sleep, and that is how also nature works, because
animals don't have clocks and get up when they feel it's time. I have seen men who worked 80 hours a week and looked like 65 when they were still 40,
so working hard is not good for you, and even some sports are not good for you like bicycle races, because those guys get a large heart and die from heart attacks
in their sleep. And not to mention all those sports that causes knees to get shot and other shit that wears you out way faster. So when you work normal and make alot of money and have alot of free time, you will live longer than a dead beat.
So, you really like old birds then?
I don't, young & fresh is my preference...
@@MySteaming ohhh sweet heart. shut up. ur gonna get old.....old people love music. if ur not going to love music in ur older age ur nothing but an a**. the best thing is, we grew up with these artists and support them. young and fresh? ummmm, i think u need to be put on some report.
Really good point actually
My mum died last year at 73. She struggled to get to the shops and back. The fact that Debbie Harry can still do this at 78 is incredible. And Clem Burke, still playing a huge fill at the end of every line at 68? Are you kidding me?
Not to mention how hard she probably partied back when. I think she has a pure love for what she's doing
@@modernmistyk4341unfortunately Debbie didn't have kids
@thereverendsam413
Sorry for your loss.. My mother passed a couple of years back...
I agree that Debbie is doing amazingly well at this point in her life.
Very well said my friend 👏 👍
too many cigarettes or booze or blokes. 80s the new 65.
I've been a Blondie fan since '79. It's great to see Debbie giving it her all and Clem is a beast!
100 %
First time I saw Blondie on Solid Gold 79 on tv ❤ I was only a few years old.
Blondie was at the height of their fame in my youth; Debbie Harry was everywhere and glad she’s still rocking
Damn 78 years old and still on stage ! Got nothing but respect ! ❤
Yeah okay but she looks if she just came out a horrormovie.
@@BIGeSTRING did you read my comment? 78 years dude ... thats what life can do to you
@@TheStefanosss dude....the plastic surgeon did🤦♂️
@@BIGeSTRING still it's quite a decent look for a woman at her 78.
Plastics easily can go wrong, especially with aging.
@@MMK_033 Decent? yeah thats easy with a lot off make-up, even for 78 . Without make-up you not recorgnize her. Believe me
I was a teenager when I saw her first appearance on British TV - an interview with Tony Wilson. Now I'm 64 and she's still performing. She's amazing ❤
Clem Burke . What a legend, he is in my top 5 best drummers of all time.
Tommy Ramone was a better Ramones drummer than Clem and Tommy wasn't a drummer 🤣😂
Clem is a great drummer.
@@gmantramp404 That's very true. How long did he last, about 3 days was it? 😂
@@MothGirl007 one of my favorite High out put perfect pocket timekeepers! im 53 and still play drums in two bands and Clem at his age is still kicking it SOLID!
Elvis Ramone
Clem never seems to age and he is a machine on those drums!
One of the best drummers out there.
Why does he play behind a plexiglas cage?
@@klebzellock67stops the drums bleeding into the vocal / guitar / bass mics
@DRUMAdam91 yes like a lot of powerful drummers
@@DRUMAdam91 Thank you!
This woman is just a legend!
Respect to her for performing, still!
Debbie Harry is ICONIC! The music & fashion shaped a decade and inspired generations! At 77 she’s still doing it! Incredible 🤩
You are so right! Debbie's a legend. She has a really distinctive voice that everyone recognises. It's a lovely voice..warm and sweet! X
Still a phenomenal woman at nearly 80 ...she rocks🤟
Regardless to whether people like her voice/singing or not, her stage presence is always there! To her it’s not just a performance, she enjoys being on stage, her body language is most at ease when doing live, ppl say she should call it a day at 77 but so what, she’s having a blast!
Maybe she needs the money🫤
❤❤❤
the woman is beyond "Fierce."! she's probably 78yo here! Blondie best ever performance? It's 2024 so I'd say "YEAH"
Good God, do people know what it actually is to be 77 years old? She is a phenomenon.
And today she's 78..!! Felicitaciones Debbie...!! Happy ßirthday. I pray God to bless her, 4ever...por siempre!!
Good job at copying other people's comments.
@@suikogarden You beat me to it. Second half of the top comment, sad really isn't it?😂
How many pairs of incontinence pants does she wear during each performance?
@@MySteaming 😏😮💨😮💨
Yaaaaaasssss Girl. So happy to see these living legends still in great shape thanks to their passion. If people don't want to see old singers on stage, don't! I personally enjoy seeing them still alive before their art lives beyond them! ❤
I think it’s particularly older women people don’t want to see. No one tells Bruce Springsteen or Billy Idol to bugger off. It’s always woman who get criticized because unfortunately our society still thinks that our lives end at 30 and we should hide ourselves after that, no one wants to see wrinkles and thinning hair. It’s ridiculous. This obsession with looking young.
you mean old women. they don't drag male artists as much as the women for appearances and age.
Debbie sings beautifully, with so much depth and soul, full of fragility and yet intensity. The band sounds tight and Clem is a master on the drums. Outstanding as ever!
It's about the tone of her voice, it's deep and richer than ever before, I love it. 😍
She out of tune often, and can't hold the notes. Don't you hear that?
Her voice is not "deep and richer than ever before", I'm not hating on her because I certainly think it's awesome she's out there doing her thing at her age, but let's not indulge in fantasy here.
78 and still rocking on. All the critics can only hope to have just 1% of this legend's vibrancy ❤️
Great to see someone rocking out at 77 and still sounding great....
The most iconic and beautiful female singer. Great song ❤
78 years old and still performing like this?! With those vocals?? Incredible
As someone who has reached 70 … great to see a 77 year old with so much energy
She is iconic and that track is the sound track to the first part of the 80s still gives me chills remember she is nearly 80 and still rockin. wow.
Atomic is from 1979
@@thevoiceofamerica2389 wrong the remix and single version of the track was released in feb 1980 so shut your mouth :)
Okay but it was shazzizle in the 80’s @thevoiceofamerica🖖🏻🇺🇸❤️
78 yrs old and still preforming so well 😁 A true legend 😀
I think she was deforming . not preforming. Borderline cringy.
She's 77 years old
@@janegraham44 78 in 5 days.
Jeezuz talk about splitting hairs 😆
@@ponyboycurtis9345I bet you're an oil painting at 78 😆
@@ponyboycurtis9345 LoL. Must be hard for performers to know when to retire. Good on her but I agree, she’s past it.
finally just got home from Glasto and had to come and rewatch this performance. I was in the crowd near the sound desk and she was kicking arse.
I saw these guys in mid-2022 at a festival in Mexico, they had to close a stage at night and on the other stage was Miami Horror. I thought I was just going to watch them for a few minutes and then go to see Miami Horror, but I ended up staying until the end of the concert. Debbie is really very charming and she still has a lot of attitude, in the end people asked them not to leave and to continue playing more. Blondie is a good time at any festival or concert.
I've loved her my whole life, the first record i bought was "I Want That Man" by Deborah Harry in 1989. We're all so incredibly lucky that Blondie are still here and touring, they're genuinely one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Blondie are brilliant, and Debbie is a marvel. Long may she reign ❤
I love the Fact She is still Performing the music we grew up listening to and still Appreciate ... Thank you Debbie Harry
Saw them at Lytham festival last week. Absolutely brilliant. Debbie was 78 the day after we saw them. Unbelievable for her age. Legend 🥰🥰
It's amazing to see her on stage at 78 with that youth energy. Who says rock n roll is dangerous to your health? This is proof that it's good for your mind and soul.
I’ve always loved her. I think she was over 30 before the band hit the big time. The first to Rap on a record I believe.
Nope. Blondie we’re the first act to hit U.S billboard number 1 with a record that had rapping on it (Rapture in early81). Sugar Hill Gang had already hit the US charts with Rapper’s Delight in 1979 (which got to number 3 in the UK).
Wow! Still kicking & rocking at 77! I’ll sign up for that anytime!! Mad respect 🙏🙏🙏
Debra Harry at 78 is one strong, determine, out going lady, ..... with a beautiful heart of gold, and an excellent sounding voice yet to match..... I was only a young kid when she came out, and now I am 58 years old. The group Blondie was my favourite group beside Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Black Sabbath, Talking Heads.... My (English/Scottish/German) Mum is now 86 and still driving yet. Debra Harry has alot of good years in her yet, never under estimate this sweet pretty lady. We need more bands like Blondie to continue on into the future.
I think she still sounds great. People get older older. It happens. Our voices change. She’s aware of what she can and cannot do.
Debbie still sounds and looks amazing.
I loved the fact that Blondie is still a kick ass, phenomenal band still creating amazing music.
I think she sounds amazing. If anyone is expecting her to sing this song like she did when she recorded it they are absolutely ignorant. She was 32 years old when she recorded this song.... she is damn near 80 now. They're playing in a different key and she's singing the melody in a way that makes sense for the song and makes sense for her voice. She still sounds fantastic and even more fantastic on the new material they have from there more recent albums❤
She's used to putting people in a trance with this song 🎵
Wow blondie .she is amazing. Sometimes as we sit behind our TV screens and listen to the same music for years, we forget that the artists we love get old too . ❤
@AndyMJF yes, like the lovely 😍 Madonna
Thanks BBC Music for recording and sharing this little gem. The production is very professional. Thanks to all the cameramen ( camera women ) audio technicians and the whole crew.
Shup up
Yeah top marks the BBC has captured the moment.
God, its like a vintage wine, improves with age, Debbie and Clem your the greatest!
She is amazing! I have the feeling a lot of their songs are pretty hard to sing, so good on her for still being able to sing them!
Don't know what everyone's on about. Whatever it is, Deborah Harry will have it until the day she leaves this mortal realm.
Correct she doing not bad for78
@@ronniesmith6246She's only 77!
@@ronniesmith6246shes not doing good for Blondie either though eh.
Absolutely Fabulous performance ❤❤
Hear hear she's a total icon and always will be she's never lost her touch
I give her 100%credit. She doing the best she can...not trying to be all she was but putting out the best she can do and looks great.
Negative couch potato.
well said
A key song from the heart of my childhood. I don't care if she can't hit the notes as she once did, I'd settle for still being alive at 77, let alone being able to play a festival!
77and still great singer.
All Respect
💐🌹🍀👍
I don't care how old Debbie Harry gets, she's always 35 years old in my mind. she's still got that smile that can cut you off at the knees
wish the skirt did the same.
Thank you, Debbie, for all the fun-filled youthful moments spent listening to your music. You have your place in my heart forever. I love you.
A legend and goddess. Nice to see her still performing.
God bless Debbie - amazing vocals/talent!!!!
Ahh Memories Memories 🎤
What's important here is that music is a continuous living breathing being. Many there didn't know of her but they do now. They've opened their minds to a new chapter in musical history. Art forever.
Man I HOPE people at a big event like this at least know who Blondie is. They've had plenty of hits.
Nice try. Those who didn't know her might see, might, an old lady dressed young and singing poorly who others consider a legend. I'm being honest about that.
@@wilfullness nice try yourself. Sell that many albums tough guy.
@@firststatetate Nothing to do with selling albums or hating Blondie. They are a fantastic band but Debs needs to let go.
@ponyboycurtis9345 your right. It's a bit tragic. Imagine that's all you've ever done. It's tough.
So so good! To be rockin like this in your late 70’s. Long live Blondie ❤
Yeah but they're past it let's be honest 👍👍
@@gmantramp404 lighten up, it's a fun day out listening to music. How could anyone possible perform now like they did in their prime? 😆
@@joethelion6016 although not a fan but Cat Stevens vocally what I heard at Glasto was pretty strong for a man his age 👍

Honour!!! 😂😂😂😂
It's the beautiful tones in her voice that hit you ❤️❤️❤️
clem burke the most underrated drummer in rock history. debbie harry is a queen and still rocking at (almost) 80.
More of Blondie, plz BBC Music 🙏💗
Nah!
Why are people being so disrespectful.
She's a Legend and though toned down still sounds awesome ima toned down version.
All the power to her for this wonderful performance and pushing 80.
Bravo..a fucking inspiration.
Bloody embarrassment
Blondie tribute act...
50 shades of grey....
@@ponyboycurtis9345 Mate, if you hate it so much, why the need to make multiple comments on how bad you thought it was? Get a life pal and find something you like, life is too short for your hate.
@@davidjames3080are you a hairdresser.?
The band - WOW 👌
If I were there I would be singing along as loud as possible. Glastonbury 2023 must have been AWESOME 🎉🎉
I had the privilege to see Debbie in concert twice last year. I have been a fan since my childhood and it was a dream come true. She is a living legend and will always be phenomenal ❤.
Me too! I saw her in Nashville and if she tours again I’m going to see her!
Clem is a keep fit fanatic doesn't drink and hasn't done drugs in years, he's amazing
Clem is awesome.
Im a 57 year old drummer and trust me when i say you dont wanna play more than 3 Blondie songs back to back live.Go Clem🤣
Very true, the woman is almost 80 and still on the stage. You're lucky to see 80 these days go for it I say
Saw them about 10 years ago in Townsville, North Queensland at our entertainment centre with the Stranglers and the Saints. Such an amazing line-up and evening. By the time Blondie was on, I was in the front row, in front of her!
WOW!!!
❤The saints
Absolutely superb performance! OMG! Love Blondie since teens!
Debbie Harry…the coolest person on any stage. Respect ❤
Took her a few songs to warm up her voice but great set and Clems drumming was the driving heartbeat of the whole thing.
where was chris stein?
oh hes not touring, I dont know about these shred lords huh
@@louisreeve6830it's the Debbie Harry tribute band...

@@richardkeeler2347 well thats cool af
This is one of my favourite Blondie songs
Agreed!
I always felt it never was given the credit it deserved. Floating, dreaming, then driving flat out, four on the floor.
Classic track from a classic punk rock/new wave band.
Imagine being at CBGBs one of those nights where the bill had Television, Talking Heads and Blondie playing… one after the other… incredible!
Atomic!
love this band , the guitars are amazing and the two original members left continue to go strong after five or more decades , Blondie for ever !!!!
I was a club DJ in 78 in Brighton UK, Night Fever Club and received hot off the press from Chrysalis the 12” extended version of Heart Of Glass (still not available on the radio) announced it as such and the crowd went nuts it was that palpable, great disco times. Debbie & co proved that they were the real deal following soon with Atomic and Rapture- pure dynamite😎👌
Nice to see Glenn Matlock too still involved with the music scene.
Love Blondie a lot, fantastic band 🧡
Still sounds fantastic and still gorgeous rock on blondie x
So what if her voice breaks, she's got balls! She's sexy , timeless and a legend! Looks a lot younger than her bio age. People think themselves young, it's your mind that overcomes the odds.
Deborah’s CDBG shirt from 1972 is probably older than 75% of the audience. Sure, her voice has lost range and tone, but mad respect to still be rocking 50 years on! The band is cooking.
CBGBs that opened in '73 🙄
💚💚💙💙💗💗 great to see Blondie there
It’s not from 72 it’s definitely just a new age reprint but it’s still a great shirt
Totally agree.
CDBG 😂 hey 78 & kicking ass & it’s not her range so much as they’re not doing it right. She’s a queen no matter what tho. Xxo
She still looks beautiful. Almost 80 and looks great. Obviously her voice will not sound when she was young but she still rocks!!! Love you Debbie, what a queen, absolutely legend!!
No she doesn't
@@shakeybeatz what????
@@shakeybeatz shut up if u don't like it why are you here lmao get out

I saw them in Hull 2022, same lineup. They are all excellent, one of the best shows I've seen. Clem Burke does the work of three drummers, he's a monster!
Blondie forever!!! This is incredible 😍
Debbie Harry at 78!
It's like Judi Dench playing Dorothy in a 2023 remake of 'The Wizard of Oz'.
A curiosity - maybe!
Entertainment - certainly NOT!
Incredibly sad. :-(
@@crapple009no its not!
How Clem is keeping up he’s awesone drum game is beyond me. He must be deaf by now. Debbie always was and will be cool! Happy that the original lineup experience a new generation that discovering and loving their timeless appeal!
But it's not the original line up
Magical stuff from Debbie and Blondie....was mesmerised watching and listening to this on Sunday.....good times!!!
Debbie Harry is amazing! Her voice is still good, I'm 67 and doubt I will make it to 78, let alone performing on stage for thousands of fans! 🙂
Tough woman 💪
I appreciate that she still does this and remains true to herself! ❤
Never let yourself be limited, not by someone else or the standard norms!
I never have o still.love younger guys 😊😊😊😊😊😊
I saw them play in shepherd's Bush empire over 15 years ago. Clem B drumming is and was hypnotic, enthralling, driving, brilliant. C Stein and one other played. Brilliant in a small venue. Glen matlock looking and playing cool
Glenn Matlock on bass!!!!
I have enjoyed Debbie for decades. Still rocking it! You go girl!🐢
Clem. 68 years old this year. An amazing drummer who is not often quoted. A great musician who has not lost his energy or his speed.
Some artists you hope don’t go back to the stage because they can’t do it anymore and ruin your memories of their youthful days, but she did not disappoint.
That's what happened here.
You must have watched something else 😁😂😂
@@sallywright8065 Let's see how well you go at that age. Salty much?
@@oo0Spyder0oo
Unlike Ms Harry I’m under no illusions so I absolutely wouldn’t make such a tit of myself. But I daresay I’d be able to gasp out a tuneless song then bugger off and leave the band to it!!
@@sallywright8065you couldn’t do shite!
She's a legend
Everyone's being so mean with Debbie omg 😭 I know she's not singing like she used to but stop please, she's amazing because she's a legend.
There are artists today, in their 20s, 30s, and they simply cannot hack the rock n roll lifestyle like Debbie Harry can! She's a LEGEND AND ICON!!
@@Deedee-ee1sg absolutely!!!! I love her so much, Blondie is one of my favorite bands. Debbie was and still beautiful to me and true Blondie fans. The haters are crying because their favorites aren't iconic like Debbie.
Deberían de quitarse el sombrero por ella.. ase de corazón su presentación..
@@RamonMembrenos-py3pgpor supuesto, ella es una gran artista y persona. Merece todo el respeto del mundo. No entiendo por qué son así de groseros con semejante leyenda.
This for me was the most incredible thing ever! Bear in mind, she done for us, the fans , she is a super star! Thank You Debbie!❤❤❤❤❤❤
If you like Blondie you should look up a band called The Doublejumps, you might enjoy them
Still beautiful and still as electric.....rock on blondie, we love you.
New kids could only hope to have your magnetism and crowd draw.
I saw her a couple days ago, was happy to hear her sing Maria and saved Dreaming for very last! It got me into their 2017 album, Long Time is such a great song!
Clem Burke backing Blondie and bucking the passage of time. So great.
What fountain of youth has he been drinking from?
Clem Burke isn’t ‘backing’ Blondie-they are a band (called Blondie) and he’s an original member.
Backing? No. Try again
She is an icon and a hugely positive inspiration. An exceptional person who is still living her dream and demonstrating it can be done even on into your later years. That is encouragement for all who want to see it. Hats off to her!
At 77 she is enjoying the fun of it all. Just outstanding !
I think she could still get much of her voice back with a little re-training. It’s often a breathing technique issue and she does sound as though she hasn’t quite got the lung capacity any more but to be honest I think she is such an icon now that people are happy just to be in her presence. Love her.
I agree, if she trained her breathing she could very well belt it out. She still has the strength and the ear, for pitch and tone!!! Not one note out of place
I think she is brilliant at least she is singing live and not lip syncing like alot of the artists do these days. I cant be arsed doing anything in my forties never mind a performance at Glastonbury in my late 70s..hats off to debbie harry I say 😊
Best person I've ever seen live
City Hall Sheffield ... Amazing
The best singer iv heard live is Darren Hayes, savage garden
At times this band and Debbie sound incredible, at the isle of white there were transcendent moments the rest of the time it's just brilliant.
Loved this set and this was my favourite out of all me them, Debbie is brilliant, will never stop loving her! ❤
Max respect for Debbie and the band❤
Omg Atomic, yes, one of my fav songs!!❤🔥❤
Huge respect for performing in this age! Amazing :)
Famous words…..what has age got to do with it?
@@CatsJPThe lady is 77 and still performing. Try doing some of the things you did in your thirties when you're 77. I can assure you, it is much harder than you think when you are young.
@@BDM4972 And her voice is really good. It's lower than it was, but she is projecting and catching some lovely mellow tones there. And Clem Burkes drumming OMG. He's 68 and drumming better than ever.

@@CatsJP She was slaughtering great songs
Debbie is an absolute legend! She doesn't need to prove anything, she just is the legendary Debbie Harry! ❤
Holy words
Apparently, Debbie is following the example of Mick Jagger, still gathering huge audiences of her fans.
She is absolutely incredible. I would love to see her show
Remember seeing the picture of Ms H on the cover of Smash Hits - wonder who remember that - circa '85 / 86 and I said wow.. almost 40 years later - she is still rocking it .. legend legend legend!! 👏💚🔥
