'The Tide Is High' had an unlikely fan in John Lennon…
During a 2006 interview with Rolling Stone magazine, his son Sean Lennon revealed: "My father had an old Wurlitzer in the game room of our house on Long Island. It was filled with 45s, mostly Elvis and The Everly Brothers." "The one modern song I remember him listening to was 'The Tide Is High' by Blondie, which he played constantly."
