- "Blondes (Have More Fun)" is a song written by Rod Stewart and Jim Cregan that was originally released as the title track of Stewart's 1978 album Blondes Have More Fun. In some countries it was released as the third single off the album, following "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?" and "Ain't Love a Bitch". It only reached the Top 70 in the UK, topping out at #63 but reached #23 in Ireland. The song was covered by Vince Neil on the Japanese version of his album Exposed. Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic described the song as being a "winning track" in the same mold as "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?" and "Ain't Love a Bitch". Circus writer David Fricke suggested that the "stocky, swaggering sound" that Stewart's band achieves on the song "proves Stewart has not forgotten how to rock." Henry McNulty of the Hartford Courant considered it to be "the most worthwhile song" on the album, describing it as a "straightforward rocker" on which Stewart seems to be having fun. McNulty particularly praise the way the "rich, warm horns" set off the screeching lead guitar and tinkling piano. The Beaver County Times described the song as "a rollicking Chuck Berry-style rocker, complete with honky-tonk piano." CD Review described the song as a "barrelhouse rocker." The Albany Herald wrote that the "hardrocking" song is one of the highlights among the songs of "up and down love affairs" on the Blondes Have More Fun album. Rolling Stone critic Janet Maslin described it as one of the three "tolerable" songs on the album. The Ottawa Journal similarly called it the best song on the album. Author Sharon Davis described the song as Stewart's last hit before 1983's "Baby Jane." Critic Dave Tianen rated the song as Stewart's 4th worst (two notches better than 2nd place "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy,") saying that it "would almost be beneath RuPaul." But critic Mark Brown considered it to be "wonderful." "Blondes (Have More Fun)" was included on Rod Stewart's live video Live at the L.A. Forum. A live version was also included on the 2014 album . Graham Hicks of the Edmonton Journal felt the live version was preferable to the studio version, calling the live version a "rhythm and blues number" and stating that this proved that the "production" was responsible for the blandness of the studio version. The music video for the song was on MTV's first day. (en)
- Blondes (Have More Fun) è un singolo del cantautore rock britannico Rod Stewart, il terzo estratto dall'album semi-omonimo del 1978 Blondes Have More Fun. Scritto da Stewart e , il brano è stato prodotto da Tom Dowd. Incentrato sul luogo comune che "le bionde si divertono di più", il singolo ha ricevuto opinioni contrastanti: il critico Stephen Thomas Erlewine di AllMusic ha descritto la canzone come una "traccia vincente" allo stesso modo di Da Ya Think I'm Sexy? e Ain't Love a Bitch. L'opinionista di Rolling Stone Janet Maslin l'ha descritta come una delle tre canzoni "tollerabili" dell'album. Al contrario, il critico Dave Tianen ha valutato la canzone come la quarta peggiore nel repertorio di Stewart. Blondes (Have More Fun) è stato incluso nel video dal vivo di Rod Stewart Live at the L.A. Forum. Una versione live è stata inoltre inclusa nell'album del 2014 Live 1976-1998: Tonight's the Night.
