Blondie - Rapture Lyrics
Toe to toe
Dancing very close
Barely breathing
Almost comatose
Wall to wall
And they're stepping lightly
Hang each night in Rapture
Back to back
Sacroiliac
Spineless movement
And a wild attack
Face to face
Sadly solitude
Twenty-four hour shopping in Rapture
Fab Five Freddy told me everybody's fly
DJ's spinning I said my, my
Flash is fast, Flash is cool
Francois sais pas, Flashe no deux
And you don't stop, sure shot
Go out to the parking lot
And you get in your car and you drive real far
And you drive all night and then you see a light
And it comes right down and lands on the ground
And out comes a man from Mars
And you try to run but he's got a gun
And he shoots you dead and he eats your head
And then you're in the man from Mars
You go out at night, eatin' cars
You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too
Mercuries and Subaru
And you don't stop, you keep on eatin' cars
Then, when there's no more cars
You go out at night and eat up bars where the people meet
Face to face, dance cheek to cheek
One to one, man to man
Dance toe to toe
Don't move too slow, 'cause the man from Mars
Is through with cars, he's eatin' bars
Yeah, wall to wall, door to door, hall to hall
He's gonna eat 'em all
Rapture, be pure
Take a tour, through the sewer
Don't strain your brain, paint a train
You'll be singin' in the rain
I said don't stop, do punk rock
Well now you see what you wanna be
Just have your party on TV
'Cause the man from Mars won't eat up bars where the TV's on
And now he's gone back up to space
Where he won't have a hassle with the human race
And you hip-hop, and you don't stop
Just blast off, sure shot
'Cause the man from Mars stopped eatin' cars and eatin' bars
And now he only eats guitars, get up!

Blondie Rapture Comments
THE FIRST WHO RAPP. I LOVE DEBORAH.
That black dude In the white outfit is creepy as hell
Fools : "disco sucks "
Blondie : "Rapture !"
This is one funny video.
Classic
1:54 iconic artist jean Michel Basquiat 🙏🙏 the greatest
For sure, died in a pool of vomit with his rotted teeth... greatest ever indeed
Was a teenage boy with her poster on my wall grew up with sexy Debbie you young lot don't understand and you talking crap
Ok so... Never heard this song before (but I now see where KRS got his song from)... I WAS NOT EXPECTING BLONDIE TO RAP! 🤯
And she bodied it! ⚰️🔥
...not new news, but...Basquiat @ 1:56.
love seeing jean michel
Blondie being interviewed on The Beat tonight with Ari
Business of hype brought me here
All rage in 80. But would be a skank today. Funny.
She has had sex with all those men on set.
I'm a wise guy.
Perfekt 👍
2020/4 ever!!!
I wish the people that force others to watch this were dead.
She's sooooo hot
The original rapper
Plenty of rappers before her
That's a stretch, she's not an original rapper. We liked it back then because it was good and it was strange seeing a white woman rappin'
In the late 70's and early 80's there was one band that ruled NYC.....They did Rock.....They did Rap.....And they did Punk.....It was nearly impossible to get tickets.....Their drummer was killer and their singer was visually stunning.....Debbie Harry and Blondie could not be touched.....
Ummm....could do this debs..
"There's a Freddy who gets through."
Back in the days this was and still the shit music is not what it once was the garbage to have out today wish we could go back in time when everything was better
Up there with the Wham! Rap and Gazza's Fog on the Tyne for all time classic rapping if you ask me
I’m here cause I wanted to know the origin of the Krs-One- Step into a world sample but was definitely not expecting her to start rapping haha
The dude white suit ok I agree with that but a Fu## KIN goat way out !!
First ever rap song in the charts
You can sing the first line of Chas n Dave's Sideboard song in the intro!
She’s the one that invited rap
No, she isn't
Held her own Vinal days big 33 Anda third rpm so glad records making comeback I'm sure shes munched on carpet
I'm here for Basquiat but stayed for Harry...damn what a babe.
wow all these noobs lol
I'm here because I just read that this video has a scene with a specifc graffiti artist in it. I love YouTube because it gets us involved with all kinds of things.
Omg she looks like Taylor swift in this
lol gawd she looks totally different
Diva RocknRoll!!!Debbie!!!!
I'm 18 and listening in 2020
Never noticed the guy in "blackface" until now.
Anybody 40 and up knows exactly what this song meant to us ,sexy talented with her own style .
Who else came here for Basquiat in 2020 lol
lol no we grew up with it lol
Oh yes Blondie Rapture just think this is the first rap song that came on MTV and may I say Debbie Harry is doing a good job at it too if you agree with me give me a hoot y'all have a great evening and by all means God bless the 80s
80’s better better betttterrrrrr 🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽🍹
i don't mind how this video proceded
DJ Jean Michel Basquiat
wow what´s new
Oh 80s memoirs divine!
Daaayyum i was dying to see her feet!
She was 35 in this one and looked absolutely gorgeous.
Whoa, I never noticed the real church bells in the beginning and saxophones , electric piano’s, and multiple “Cow-Bell”. This was one seriously full track!
The first rap song
Blondie
Rapture
Autoamerican
Chrysalis Records, 1981
The rapping part sounds stupid.
Not as stupid as you
DEBORAH HARRY AND KIM CARNES WERE THE MOST INSTRUMENTAL FEMALES IN PROMOTING THE "Out" IN THE TRANSEXUAL COMMUNITIES OF THE SEVENTIES FYI
1:50 Maybe you have said it in the past comments but i can't resist to say it: Jean Michel Basquiat!!!
yeah we grew up with it we have known for decades
She lame af but she tried to be black I would hang with her
First song is rappers delight by sugar hill gang 1979
Basquiat omg 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
gawd what are all these noobs just hearing of basquiat now lol
Disco vibe + old school rap = nostalgia heaven.
Really clever song and video. I think this is their best.
Does anyone else want a pair of those awesome sunglasses?
Considered to be the very first rap song.
A white chick rapping to a black guy. THAT is funny!
blondie ,,, too good to be famous.....
1st White Rapper.
ya tiene como 70 años y aun es una muñeca........
😄 i forgot how crazy cool this song is
show d +
so Blondie ruined music ? introduced rap?
Not a straight dude alive who wouldn’t spend an evening with debbie
Great tune
When i was a kid blondie was everything and when she stopped making music i thought it was the end of the world. xx
I had this as a 45 single
Sons o' b*tch!! That rap smooth as sh*t. Love her! 2020
She could sing
The wax is perfect. Here wounds are rapt.🏜️🏜️🏜️🏙️🇧🇩
In this video the DJ is...........Jean Michel Basquiat ! Amazing Love this.
wow since when do you know of him
I love Blondie but the rap in this song was not it sis LMAO.
imaginense que el rap ya comenzaba a escucharse en los 80 por blondie
Down shutter. A butterfly at fast.🔔
The DJ at 1:54 is Jean-Michel Basquiat, famous NYC artist
wow we haven´t known that for decades
Truly talented singers & musicians can perform in any genre.
2020 baby let's go!!
Debbie harry still feels revolutionary...and I wasn't even alive when this dropped!!! Blondie y u no rap more??? Killed it
Blondie and patsy kensit. Wow what a combination Two of the most gorgeous chicks on the planet. Blondie was the first girl to start the rapping craze.If only, Pam!!
First White female Rapper.
I saw an old horror movie from the 90s recently called Tales From The Darkside and I couldn't believe she was in it. She played a witch who cooked kids in am oven.
It was a TV series first.
Ya,that was her
Anyone listening to it in 2021. I'm always a little ahead
I came here for Basquiat.
wow all these noobs
this song will rock forever
2020💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
This song is in gta v when Michael is about to take a janitor
Looking at the black faces of the
Ethiopians there definitely
From Mars
Who here 2050
She is the one ,and first lady I ever heard Rap...On the Radio ,,totally back by her label ,,well until ...
Si "Magnificente Seven" fue el primer rap cantado por blancos (The Clash), la guapísima Debbie Harry no se quedo atrás y tambien aporto su granito de arena al genero.
Can somebody tell me which one is a Jean Michel Basquiat- the great artist? Is he in the white suit or painting the wall?
One painting is Fab Five Freddy
Basquiat was at the turntables when she started rapping
She raps better than 99% of rappers in 2020
I was fifteen in 1980. My favorite TV program on Sunday nights was "Solid Gold," hosted by Dionne Warwick, where they counted down the top ten hits for the previous week. They played this video and it was the first introduction to rap that a lot of suburban white kids like me ever had. :)
Would anyone ever consider dancing to this song?
Omg she's so hot
There has never been such good rap music ever since Rapture
Love this in dj hero
