About this song

"Denis" by Blondie is a cover of the 1963 song "Denise" by Randy & The Rainbows. The song features a catchy guitar riff played by Chris Stein, utilizing a clean tone with a touch of reverb. Debbie Harry's vocals shine with a playful energy, while Clem Burke's drumming drives the song with a steady beat. The track was produced by Richard Gottehrer and reached the top 10 in the UK charts in 1978.
