Debbie Harry hasn’t always looked so well-kept. She was beautiful in her heyday and looks good now, but there was a decade or so that apparently was pretty rough, no idea why. I just recall being saddened when I saw her on some late night show, 10 maybe 15 years ago.

Then in 1981 MTV started and drew the line in the sand.

Music never recovered.

Two thoughts occur to me after scrolling through all of those pictures.

1 - I obviously didn’t listen to 80s New Wave. I don’t know 90% of what I bet are one hit wonders.

2 - If this is aging gracefully defined, I look fantastic.

John Taylor looks a little like Jim Carrey in that picture.

Wow, that was kind of depressing!

New Wave was the music of my youth. I grew up with that music. Still listen to First Wave on Sirius all of the time.

These people all look like my grandparents.

This is the way I prefer to remember Debbie Harry of Blondie...

Take a look, Silvie!

I think John still looks pretty good. Simon is looking like he belongs in a barbershop quartet.

Blondie is overrated IMHO.

Sorry, Duran Duran doesn't qualify as "New Wave".

More like Muzak for frat boys.

Deborah Harry’s the queen, a goddess with a little “g.”

Martha Davis of the Motels was pretty hot looking in the early 80’s. And she had a great sounding voice.

Trent Reznor frontman for Nine Inch Nails looked about dead from drugs and booze. He’s now sober looks great. ..and has won a couple of Oscars doing soundtracks.

Blondie was punk.

There was punk and new wave and they were the same until record industry marketers got involved.
