Violet Deliriums's video: Blondie - One Way or Another guitar cover

@Blondie - "One Way or Another" (guitar cover)
This is my cover of Blondie's song "One Way or Another" (1978), led by their lead singer and star Debbie Harry. Although I would call this song new wave more than punk, I interpret it more like a punk song because it seems to be imitating some undesirable bad behavior and throwing it back in the face of those who do it. In this case, we have some gender role reversal -- instead of the girl being stalked by the boy, the girl creeps on the boy. That is, at least until the last verse. Then we seem to be back into the normal mode, except the girl outsmarts her stalker and leaves him in the dust. Nice try, creepoid! I played it on my deep-space black Fender Standard Stratocaster HSS with the bridge humbucker selected through my Fender Supersonic 22W amp's "Burn" (hi-gain) channel. I shaped the sound with a Keeley compressor (all knobs at 12 o'clock), and a Boss CE-5 Chorus Ensemble (first two knobs at 12 o'clock and last two all the way up). I turn on the MXR Phase 90 on the briefly at the end of the refrains on the held E and F-sharp octaves. During the bridge/solo, I turn on a TC Electronic MojoMojo Overdrive (all four controls on 12 o'clock) and a Line 6 DL4 delay (set for a very subtle "Analog Echo"). During the outro, I turn on a Memory Boy analog delay for a slight slapback. To record it, I played along with the mp3 with my computer speakers and amp huddled around a Samson CO1U microphone into my Mac's Photo Booth program, which reverses the image and I don't know how to fix it. One way or another I'm gonna find ya. I'm gonna getcha, getcha, getcha, getcha. One way or another I'm gonna win ya. I'm gonna getcha, getcha, getcha, getcha. One way or another I'm gonna see ya. I'm gonna meetcha, meetcha, meetcha, meetcha. One day, maybe next week. I'm gonna meetcha. I'm gonna meetcha. I'll meetcha. I will drive past your house, And if the lights are all down, I'll see who's around. One way or another I'm gonna find ya. I'm gonna getcha, getcha, getcha, getcha. One way or another I'm gonna win ya. I'll getcha, I'll getcha. One way or another I'm gonna see ya. I'm gonna meetcha, meetcha, meetcha, meetcha. One day, maybe next week. I'm gonna meetcha. I'll meetcha. And if the lights are all out, I'll follow your bus downtown. See who's hanging out. One way or another I'm gonna lose ya I'm gonna give you the slip, a slip of the lip or another. I'm gonna lose ya, I'm gonna trick ya. I'll trick ya. One way or another I'm gonna lose ya I'm gonna trick ya, trick ya, trick ya, trick ya. One way or another I'm gonna lose ya. I'm gonna give you the slip. I'll walk down the mall stand over by the wall Where I can see it all. Find out who ya call, Lead you to the supermarket checkout Some specials and rat food, get lost in the crowd. One way or another I'm gonna getcha, I'll getcha, I'll getcha getcha getcha getcha (Where I can see it all, find out who ya call)...
