About This Track
Blondie's Debbie Harry once described the feeling of being in a relationship and thinking that everything is "a gas," only to have it end abruptly with a broken heart. The song's blend of disco and New York punk, captured by producers Mike Chapman and Joe Thomas, offers a sonic backdrop to that emotional whiplash. "Heart Of Glass" has also proven ripe for reinvention, later sampled by Missy Elliott.
