Audio sample

"Atomic" is a song by American rock band Blondie from their fourth studio album, Eat to the Beat (1979). Written by Debbie Harry and Jimmy Destri and produced by Mike Chapman, the song was released in February 1980 as the album's third single.

"Atomic" is widely considered one of Blondie's best songs. In 2017, Billboard ranked the song number six on their list of the 10 greatest Blondie songs,[4] and in 2021, The Guardian ranked the song number two on their list of the 20 greatest Blondie songs.[5]

Composition

"Atomic" was composed by Jimmy Destri and Debbie Harry, who (in the book 1000 UK #1 Hits by Jon Kutner and Spencer Leigh) stated, "He was trying to do something like 'Heart of Glass', and then somehow or another we gave it the Spaghetti Western treatment. Before that it was just lying there like a lox. The lyrics, well, a lot of the time I would write while the band were just playing the song and trying to figure it out. I would just be scatting along with them and I would just start going, 'Ooooooh, your hair is beautiful.'"[6] The word atomic in the song carries no fixed meaning and functions as a signifier of power and futurism.[7]

The song was produced as a mixture of new wave, rock and disco which had proven to be so successful in their number-one single from earlier in 1979, "Heart of Glass". It is written in E natural minor.[citation needed] Billboard described "Atomic" as an "electronic enhanced dance number" in which the vocals blend with the instrumental music.[8] Cash Box said that it continues "the rock-dance fission, or rather fusion, with '60s inspired surf guitars and ground zero drumming."[1]

The 1980 single version of "Atomic" was a remix. The original 4:35 version as featured on the albums Eat to the Beat and 1981's The Best of Blondie opens with an intro inspired by the nursery rhyme "Three Blind Mice" and includes an instrumental break with a bass guitar solo. The 7″ version mixed by Mike Chapman omits the "Three Blind Mice" intro and replaces the instrumental break with a repeat of the verse.[citation needed]

Release and reception

The song was released in February 1980 and became the band's third number one in the UK Singles Chart, where it held the top spot for two weeks.[9] Record World called it an "electronic dancer."[10] It reached the Top 40 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in Spring 1980.

The B-side was "Die Young, Stay Pretty", also from the album Eat to the Beat, a reggae-influenced track, a style the band would perform again in their global chart-topper "The Tide Is High". The UK 12" single contained a live cover version of David Bowie's "Heroes" featuring Robert Fripp on guitar recorded at London's Hammersmith Odeon just a month before. The track was included on 1993's rarities compilation, Blonde and Beyond.[citation needed]

"Atomic" was remixed and re-released in the UK in September 1994 where it peaked at number 19 on the UK Singles Chart.[11] The subsequent April 1995 US release reached number one on the Billboard Dance/Club Play Chart.[12] The 1994 remix was included on the compilations The Platinum Collection, Beautiful - The Remix Album and Remixed Remade Remodeled - The Remix Project. The track was remixed again four years later for the UK compilation Atomic - The Very Best of Blondie and the '98 Xenomania mix was later included on the first Queer as Folk soundtrack album.[citation needed]

In 2014, Blondie re-recorded the song for their compilation album Greatest Hits Deluxe Redux. The compilation was part of a 2-disc set called Blondie 4(0) Ever which included their tenth studio album, Ghosts of Download, and marked the 40th anniversary of the forming of the band.

In 2017, Billboard ranked the song number six on their list of the 10 greatest Blondie songs,[13] and in 2021, The Guardian ranked the song number two on their list of the 20 greatest Blondie songs.[14]

Music video

The accompanying music video for "Atomic" depicts the band performing on stage at what looks like a post-apocalyptic nightclub in which Debbie Harry is wearing a garbage bag as a punkish futuristic costume. The audience at the club are also dressed in suitably futuristic costumes, and footage of a horseman with the "Blondie: in the disco" New Year's concert advertisement.[15][16] and an atomic explosion are also intercut. The video features late supermodel Gia Carangi dancing. The horse "valet" seen in the opening is played by Jean-Michel Basquiat.
