Eldergays, tell me about Blondie's The Tide is High

What are your memories of this song which I am told is iconic among certain eldergays?

It's the AIDS foreshadower in Longtime Companion. I was familiar with the song, but it never stuck in my mind the way it did after the movie came out. Now I think of KS and bronchoscopy whenever I hear it.

Undergay, tell us about Taylor/Nicki/Katy/Rihi's annoyingly autotuned corporate drivel. How can you tell one song from another, since they all sound like they were churned out in a factory of robots?

First heard it when I watched Longtime Companion, the opening scene.

Iconic song.

R2, way to be aggro and insulting for no reason. OP didn't say anything negative about Blondie or anything positive about those artists.

Aggro? Jesus christ.

OP, what kind of idiot do you know who's saying this song is "iconic"? It's deeply average.
