Blondie theme song. Blondie once promoted the idea that the name of the band came from Debbie Harry's bleached blonde hair. Her actual color is brunette. On Marilyn, Debbie Harry who is adopted, fantasizes about being Marilyn Monroe's daughter. She talks about this fantasy in "Making Tracks the Rise of Blondie" written by Debbie and Chris Stein. Debbie was born in 1945 and Marilyn Monroe in 1929, meaning Marilyn would be giving birth at age 16. Possible, but clearly the song plays into and maybe makes a little fun of this fantasy.
