Turn it up!
Somebody argued with me that Blondie wasn't a punk band, so this is for them. Yes, I know they made pop hits to pay the rent, but this song totally burns the place down.
And I hereby rest my case!
Detroit 442 - Blondie
It also helps that Debbie looks fabulous.

It has been pointed out to me that Tom Petty was ON "King of the Hill" (well, his animated image was, in any event!) --but this lovely tune was recorded in 1991 and the cartoon started in 1997... I wonder if the song was an inspiration for the title?
It's easy to figure out who wrote what parts of the song: the verses sound like Petty/Heartbreakers, but the chorus is pure McGuinn/Byrds... beautiful!

Too amazing for mere words:
Here But I'm Gone - Curtis Mayfield
May his soul rest in peace.
