Debbie Harry reflects on her career with Blondie following the death of drummer Clem Burke, feeling uncertain about performing live again without him and Chris Stein. She emphasizes the pride she has in her music and the band's longevity, comparing it to a marriage of 50 years. Blondie was completing a new album before Burke's passing, scheduled for release in the fall. Harry shares her current focus on resetting her life while holding onto memories of her musical journey and the band's history.
"Keeping a rock band together for 50 years was like a marriage, and it's sad that with Clem's passing and without having Chris onstage, I can't see myself being onstage as Blondie, even though I am the face of Blondie."
"I ran into a wall: the tour ended, Clem died, and wow. What is this space I live in now?," Harry said. "I'm curing - I'm doing a cure. And part of that is de-cluttering up my space, which is crowded with that life."
