Blondie "Rapture"

   Oh, Agreed.   You cut the rap out of the song and remove 

the whole point.  

They were being very "cutting edge" and the new rap genre 

had become very club-chic.

The verse lyrics merely describe a club filled with 

people dancing to rap, hence the clever title. 

It's sorta like taking the "The Name Game" by Shirley 

Ellis and cutting out all instances of her actually 

playing the game, and only leaving the parts where she 

describes it. :-D
