Billy He was already kicking ass in the 70s and he's still rocking today and he would kick ass today with today's music. Billy Legend is awesome this song pure power
Hi John & Lulu, I was a musician "back in the day" and I saw Billy and the persona is real? He's a cool guy and his first band, Generation X, was great other songs are as Billy Idol are White Wedding, Rebel Yell, Mony Mony & Eyes Without a Face and Generation X are the first Dancing With Myself, Your Generation, One Hundred Punks and Kiss Me Deadly
That actually wasn’t a persona. Billy was a total badass in his prime and hasn’t really mellowed out that much. I saw him live a couple times in the 80’s and they were some of the highest energy shows I’ve ever been to
I live in Beijing, then Taipei, then Hong Kong in the early 90s. Coming from Texas…is was a huge change. I loved it!! In Taipei I bought The Bodyguard soundtrack on cassette. Still have it lol A fun time! Everyone watched MTV (the Wu 🤚 man)
3:50 Yeah, but the whole band reminds me of a bunch of bad guys from the " Mad Max" films..even the girl playing keys did the sneer when the cam panned on her! Bu that guitarist? Shredder from hell award for his solo. Fun pick/reactions guys..Lulu, looking hotter than a jar of habernero peppers!
I'm sure there's probably some actual data somewhere that could be compiled to see which song of his is deemed more popular. For me, it's always either been "Rebel Yell" or "White Wedding". Can't go wrong with either of those. Both are epic.
He performed this song with his guitarist at the top of the Empire State Building recently. Some say King Kong was so impressed, he was tempted to climb up and give him a fist bump. Of course, after what happened last time he climbed it, Kong decided to just give a big thumbs up.
So many great songs from Billy Idol to choose from... "MONY MONY (Live/1987)" ruclips.net/video/sYYAv-QW38Q/видео.html is a solid, high-octane banger that has to be experienced.
Billy wasn't copying dune. this was the punk rock style of the 80's. he wasn't going for sting's style in dune. (i'm a huge billy and dune fan and na that isn't the style etc) you guys need to do white wedding, flesh for fantasy, dancing with myself maybe in future on here.
Billy Idol was born in 1955. Total Boomer. Crazy, right? Turns out most of the guys we Gen Xers thought were poster boys for our generation were actually Boomers. Axl Rose, James Hetfield, Michael Hutchence, Quentin Tarantino and most of The Breakfast Club were actually Boomers.
He still alive ans new album will be on october. Check out Rebel Yell with Miley Cyrus live from Iheart or new music from 2021 Bitter Taste, Cage, Running from the ghost. Mony Mony Live version official video was #1 in billboard list and Cradle of love #2
now Lulu's seeing what real man's music looked like xD (nothing to do with you John), you don't just have to sing the part, you have to look like the part :P
Steve Stevens is a bad ass he was the driving force behind Billy, he wrote and collaborated on three of Billy's top 3 albums , Billy fell off after Stevens left .
I always thought that Spike the vampire on the old TV Series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" copied his look, attitude & image from Billy Idol. If you know, you know...
What should we react to next from Billy Idol?
Lulu's Fantasy Show: linktr.ee/clueless_lulu
John X Lulu Wicked Fun: linktr.ee/johnxlulu
Rebel Yell 1983, Dune 1984!
White Wedding. The other big song that everyone thinks of when hearing his name.
He's still alive and hasn't changed much.
Billy He was already kicking ass in the 70s and he's still rocking today and he would kick ass today with today's music. Billy Legend is awesome this song pure power
one of the big voices of those years. he had ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING to become a star! and he did!
The thing about Billy Idol is that he is a REAL rock star..that's him and its not a character or fake
Hot in the City , Dancing with myself, Sweet Sixteen, Eyes without a Face,,, all great songs. Damn I miss the '80s!
Billy Idol brought punk-rock to the radio.
Billy Idol was the King of Sneer... Long live the King.

Steve Stevens is the guitarist on Michael Jackaons Dirty Diana!

The guitarist wrote and played the instrumental opening song for "Top Gun "
Great video, do catch my fall, white wedding or eyes without a face 😁
❤❤❤Billy ❤❤❤
Dune came out in 1984 after this album's release of 1983. so maybe Sting was doing Billy Idol in the movie. lol
U might be right!
They both had tall spikey hairstyles before Dune.

‘Mony Mony’ should be the next reaction. That single was re-released as a live version and hit No.1 in the US.

When Stings wants to look like you, you know your cool!
I like "Flesh For Fantasy" also.
"That cantrj hasz a neat blach mettal combo, Chthonic."

NO!! He was in Generation X LONG before Dune. He had the hair style back in the 70s

if this don't get you doing 80 when it hits the radio...nothing will
React to Billy Idol - Speed - official video.

Spike from Buffy looks like billy!
Steve Stevens is a bad ass he was the driving force behind Billy, he wrote and collaborated on three of Billy's top 3 albums , Billy fell off after Stevens left .
Sting ripped off Billy's hair for sure.
Actually Dune came out after Billy Idol....

What is the video talk later? 6:39
He has that Elvis lip curl. 😂
Best sneer ever!
This song has VERY sexual lyrics. It was pretty risque for the time, I remember. I was in 10th grade and the girls went mad for him.
Elvis Punk.
Eyes without a face
He looks like david from the lost boys!
Right?! Just needs the leather jacket and some fang!🔥
You should react to Miley Cyrus doing the cover of it , so iconic
Oh my, don't compare Billy and Sting looks , goodness gracious!!! 🤭🤭
That was hot
I love his music, now try mony
Have you reacted to a band called Kiss? Listen to a song called I was made for loving you
OK, love Billy but I really didn't see him at all ,wow just wow lol
It's a nice day... for a White Wedding
