Yeah but the other guy actually has the word arse in his name. It's the first 4 letters. What do you think about that ? Come on tell me. Say something. Naw whatever man.
Never would've thought back in the 80s that Billy Idol would have the staying power - but here we are in 2023 and he's still performing, still sounding good. And still has drive and passion for it. He's become a genuine icon of our generation...and his songs are timeless.
I can't believe he was 35 years old in this interview.....he looks so much younger. I'm so glad I had the privilege of growing up in the 80's and 90's and having access to such awesome musical artists during those 2 decades. The music they play NOWADAYS will NEVER COMPARE to the music I got to grow up listening 😊
Saw Billy Idol this year for the first time. Brilliant at 63. Made me look back on his carrier. Wow. This dude has always been a gem. Intelligent, good looking, talented. He got the full package. His autobiography is so full of genuine love for music. And that tells it all to me.
Dunno bout that when you mention vocal talent and I,m talking nowadays.. Recently watched a Gen Sex gig from 2018 and sorry to say but vocally it was really really dire weak flat I could go on and on but..... .....
I never understood why the British press turned on Billy Idol. No wonder he emigrated to the USA. I think Billy's highly intelligent and a brilliant writer. He's still rocking at 66!
I just saw him this past Saturday March 16 , 2019 at the Ace theather in Los Angeles playing with Steve Stevens and they were Awesome , Billy sounded incredible share some good stories , Magical night ...BILLY IDOL FOREVER❤❤❤❤❤
Oh behold 😍. What a beautiful sight this man is, I can't get my eyes off him. I'm literally absorbing him, & listening n watching every word his mouth is forming... Oh sigh 💕💕💘
Billy is my life-long love!!!!!!!!! I am 44 and i have absolutely LOVED him for 37 years! Always have, always will….. He is AMAZING!!!!!!!!! Xoxoxoxoxox
He's still around... doing his thing & you've got to give him credit the guy wasn't just a one hit wonder & gone he really did do some memorable songs that are still great to listen to after all these years... I used to listen to him & his first band Generation X...
J Purple i dont see how he had anything in common with Prince. No disrespect to the dead but he was more of a shy & reserved type while Billy is completely opposite
J MJ - Yeah, that is a good comparison, he's like a cross between Prince and Elvis. Those faces he makes is similar to the faces that Prince makes, the same kind of swag!
@@izzy_6283 Prince was shy and reserved away from the stage, but on the stage the complete opposite! His swag and personna was complete bad boy on stage, just go and look at his concerts and videos!
I love Billy Idol, he is one cool rocker. The older he gets, the better he looks, he ages well. I have his CD's and i still listen to them. His music never gets old either. When i have his music blaring in my car. Rebel Yell..it seems to release all the stress in me.
...in other words, Billy IS Billy, he is WHO he is, and not not some fabricated...iPod ready...rock star. He's very actually a very positive, real down to earth, but also a bad ass!
Wow! This was like a flash back for me. I remember watching this very interview with my family back in '90. I was only 15 years old, and my, how quickly time flies and things change in life. I'm a fan of Billy's forever!
2:20 To have a life that is worth getting better for. Remember that everyone, when your down in the dumps. Ride the wave the best you can and put on some Billy Idol music, it cheers me up every time without fail!
I was crushed between 2 cars with both legs having a compound level IV injury. I was scheduled for amputation and a trauma Dr. came in and saved my legs by giving me a muscle graft from my back, vein graft, arterial graft, skin grafts and bone grafts from my pelvis. My lung collapsed and I had to have my achilles tendon cut in half to lengthen it. The driver took off and she was caught a month later from reward posters. It took me over 2 years to be able to walk again.
I HAVE LISTENED TO BILLY IDOL FOR A 40 YEAR , STILL HE SENDS ME EMOTIONS AND GOOD MUSIC, MANY OTHER ARTISTS HAVE BEEN LOST DURING THEIR TIME, BUT BILLY IS ALWAYS TALENTIOUS HE HAS REMAINED FAITHFUL TO HIS MUSICAL KIND ... GREETINGS ✋🤑✋ FROM ITALY 🇮🇹,
Dang, 80's icon. Nothing like the 80's music, from Billy Idol, Boy George, Michael Jackson, groups like the Commodores (Lionel Richie), The Eagles, Phil Collins and old R&B singers who parlayed into 80's music; Aretha Franklin, Patti LaBelle, etc. The electronic keyboards, I mean just the sound. And when they sang, you understood every single word.
watched an interview from 1985 and he didn't yet have that smexy hoarsekinda voice when he speaks but he has it in this one and damnit! do i love that voice :3
Yes his voice during the 80s was more smooth without the rasp. End 80s and early 90s it got all sexy raspy. Sadly after 2000 it went to hell and got all croaky.

In my opinion Billy is a touch underrated. His personality , Charisma & confidence. Truly unique.
I agree but the drugs man, I personally think it really messed idol up.
Billy is a badass... 100% rock star but still humble... what he said about being yourself in your art is words to live by
Yeah but the other guy actually has the word arse in his name. It's the first 4 letters. What do you think about that ? Come on tell me. Say something. Naw whatever man.
Bahahahaha, your just blind is all...He sold out for worthless mon3y & fake fame... But what would you know ? Ohh thats's right... NOTHING
@@nepntzerZerhaha!
True. Very humble
@@nepntzerZer ... WTH is that comment supposed to be about?
30 years later and his music still rocks!

How could such a man be so handsome?😭😭😭😫😫😫

I watch Billy Idol interviews when I'm upset lol, he always makes me laugh and calms my spirit

I can relate
yes!
Me too. I watch his interviews and find myself sitting there probably looking like a smiling fool and not realizing it but I don't care

He looks 35,… people commonly look young through their 40's.
His voice sounds like 55 though..
He looks 35 here
Até hoje com 67 anos ,nem parece , fantástico este cara ,de espírito também .

His carrier?
@@gogoyubari366 career*. Probably predicted text or typing error.
Probably predicted text or typing error but you may want to change that to 'career' not carrier.
Interviewers were always intimidated by his strong personality
I love his passion. His love of music. You can tell by the way he expresses it.
He's still badass.
With the prettiest smile.
Younger days had badass baby face, typical had boy !
Love those Bad Boys
A beautiful looking Man. Very articulate, talented and one of a kind.
He had a guardian angel 😇 he still rocks 😍 💪🎸🎶 and he's a humble guy ❤stay safe😷!

He certainly has lived a charmed life and he's still living it. God bless Billy idol. He's certainly well named, idol says it all.
teacher gave him this title , for being lazy. Truth.
Billy is incredible to say the least. I love how he speaks his mind in every interview and is so carefree, it’s something to look up to. ❤️
same! hes very down to earth and i enjoy that
@@summerseverlasting yesss! he has so many good qualities 😍 that’s why I love him 😩

Talented,gorgeous!Still both today,rock on Billy
when i see Billy..i see Prince and Elvis ..such a bad ass !
I dont see Prince but he surely is the punk rock version of Elvis
J Purple i dont see how he had anything in common with Prince. No disrespect to the dead but he was more of a shy & reserved type while Billy is completely opposite

His latest work is every bit as great as anything he’s ever done. Still a great performer.
What a gorgeous man, no wonder he got the women
No wonder why that host let him kiss him!
Yes, yes, yes!😊💕
I'm his woman
He looks like one of the Golden Girls here. His '84 interview with Lettermen though😍😍😍😍

Steve Stevens and Billy were/are great together.

i will always be a billy idol fan for life finally saw him in 2004 and he was so good
Love him he has the looks and the brains ..rock on Billy ❤ 2023.
Billy is a trip! I didn't quite remember he had such a deep raspy voice..
Michael Guerra he did past the 80’s era he sounds like Keith Richards now lol 😂
He didn't when he was younger. Years of drugs and smoking by the sounds of it. Singing would put a strain on it as well I suppose.
He didn't. It was the crack during the 80s
Боже, что за улыбка!!! За такую улыбку можно все отдать!!! Шикарный певец!!! Обожаю!!! 💋💋💋💋💋💋👍👍👍👍👍👍💓💓💓💓💓💓
He has a rare attitude you love
"... say back in England..." BLOODY BRIT!!! You gooootttaaaa love Billy!!!

Dang, 80's icon. Nothing like the 80's music, from Billy Idol, Boy George, Michael Jackson, groups like the Commodores (Lionel Richie), The Eagles, Phil Collins and old R&B singers who parlayed into 80's music; Aretha Franklin, Patti LaBelle, etc. The electronic keyboards, I mean just the sound.

He is a walking sex god. I can't take it
nia do not!! Get carry Away, Billy idol is not God , he is A Regular Person.
@@Pamela-ss1vz He has unearned power over others. He's worshipped. That falls into the category of a god. He IS one of many gods walking the earth...
@Mark Richardson NEVER, i use to fancy him like crazy many years ago but not now,it was just a teenage crush
Jedidah Fire u call walking death a “god”... u stupid af
There is no god. Billy idol is GOD
