Everybody knows more Blondie songs than they think.Having arrived at the O2 expecting to know three of four songs, I found myself singing along for most of the hour and a half set.

Hanging On The Telephone kicked off the hit procession with Debbie Harry looking great, dressed all in black and wearing shades.

Four songs in and the glasses were off, along with the jacket, driving scores of balding middle aged men crazy – she may be 64 and with some questionable dance moves, but Debbie Harry is still one sexy lady.

Having seen Blondie perform at the Isle Of Wight Festival last week I had reservations over whether her distinctive voice could still cut it. While tonight the voice may have had its funny moments, pleasingly it stayed strong for all the important moments.

It was a hit from 1999, and the New Yorker’s second spell at the top of the charts, Maria, that got the best crowd reaction and turned things up a notch.When not fixated on Debbie Harry and her unique dance moves, I couldn't take my eyes off the simply brilliant Clem Burke on drums.

Throughout the set everyone in the band had their scripted solo moments and during his Clem wowed the crowd with some sensational percussion. One solo led seamlessly into the opening bass line of Atomic, a song that Debbie very kindly allowed the crowd to sing the majority of.

Being of the generation that remembers Tide Is High as an Atomic Kitten hit, it was nice to hear it sung by its creators, while Call Me and One Way Or Another were two of the hits I’d forgotten about.

Picture This kicked off the encore before the odd choice of Taio Cruz’s Only Gonna Break Your heart, which strangely worked brilliantly and even sounded like it could easily have been a Blondie hit of yesteryear.

An excellent night’s entertainment was brought to a close with arguably their biggest hit, Heart Of Glass.
