Last week Vanyaland music editor Victoria Wasylak wrote about the vice grip Lil Nas X has placed on pop culture through his breakout, record-setting mega-hit “Old Town Road.” The defining song of 2019 remains virtually everywhere — from music festivals to elementary school talent shows to your head as you read this — and last night it made an appearance during Blondie’s set at Boston’s Rockland Bank Trust Pavilion.

Lil Nas X himself didn’t show up; but hey, he didn’t need to.

Nestled among cultural pop music touchstones like “Rapture” and “Heart of Glass” was the breakout country-rap hit, sung with glee by Debbie Harry herself.
