New Wave icon Blondie and out Gossip front woman Beth Ditto have teamed up on the dance track “A Rose By Any Name.”

The track features an infectious chorus that celebrates fluidity. “If you’re a boy or if you’re a girl / I love you just the same,” Blondie (Deborah Harry) and Ditto sing together. 

“A Rose by Any Name” is the first song off of Blondie’s upcoming album Ghosts of Download, set for release later this year, according to Towleroad. The band is also set to tour beginning in September!
