7-inch of "Heart of Glass," a disco-friendly pop track by Blondie, a representative new wave band.
Vocalist Deborah Harry weaves a contrast between "fantasy" and "reality" in this song, expressing distrust and beauty in love.
This single, released from the album "Parallel Lines," was originally recorded in 1975 as a slow track titled "Once I Had a Love," but was rearranged to suit the wave of disco's golden age. It was a huge hit, reaching number one on the charts in six countries, including the US and the UK. The B-side is "Rifle Range" from the debut album.
