In 1989 Billy idol held a 3-week-long party at a thailand hotel. He apparently caused $160,000 in damage and the military had to tranquilize them to get him out of the room. Fucking legend.
Billy is from the original London punk scene. He was a legend before his solo career. This was early MTV, and helped usher in a second British invasion of music artists into the US. Steve Stevens on guitar!
Yep, he was even in a band called Generation X. One of the songs they had was Dancing With Myself, which Billy basically made a cover of when he went solo. The only difference between those versions of the songs are in the Gen. X version it had more rough punk guitar riffs and the ending is different.
I was only age 6-7when this 1st came out. So, even though I enjoyed it, I didn’t get to really enjoy for quite a few yrs later. 😉🥰 I’m lucky enough to have an older brother who graduated in 88. So I got to not only hear his & his friends boom 💥 boxes with all the best metal etc etc. But MTV was still Music Television! Myself & my friends would have a wILd time listening to all the best hits /genres at sleepovers. God I miss the late 80’s! Great reaction! ❤️✌️👍
ArianaGrandeisqueen you got me. It's a little known fact that Billy had a phobia about airplanes flown by guys called Ronald. It just happened that the plane I caught was piloted by Capt Ron Jeremy and there was no way Billy was hopping on that plane!
Billy Idol is my favorite.. my dad is a huge 80’s fanatic. He’s cute with that infamous snarl face expression.. I learned about the 80’s through my parents
Billy was THE MAN back in the early and mid-80’s. I saw him live earlier this year (pre-Covid) and he was amazing. He’s in his 60’s now but he is in amazing shape. Steve Stevens (the guitarist) was with him too and it was so good to see these two legends back on stage together.
I actually was at a Billy Idol concert around 1988 and it was FANTASTIC. Couldn't be still (me). Billy and band rocked hard. One of my best concerts ever.
Love the need to pause, to catch your breath and the low key side eye! I saw him in concert, and I was like.....I can't EVEN!!! So happy I was there in the 80s to experience all the amazing music. It's STILL my favorite genre.
He's known for doing the Elvis lip. People that imitate Billy Idol usually do the lip thing. Glad you guys loved this 80's Classic. Check out another of his tracks "Eye's without a face"
Yep, ladies. . The song came out in 1983. Such fun. Oh, the memories of that time period. Billy is cute, isn't he. He aged well too. He is still touring. Check out "White Wedding"
Ah the 80's what a glorious time to live in. You could wear what you wanted, dressed and experiment as you liked. And the music, was all new, and everyone loved it. Was a great time to live in. This is Billy Idol in his prime, glad you both like it.
What TF are you kidding me? Sorry but apparently you didn’t live IN the 80s cuz yea Nope, even in Minneapolis when I’d visit I’d get made up horrendously and mocked for being a punk/gothic in 1985/86….it was WAY WAY worse in my small city of 100k in Wi, but sure ya could whatever ya wanted! LMFAO don’t even get me started about cliquish high school was and if you’re 25lbs overweight you the FATSO OF THE SCHOOL. Now there’s many kids above 300/400lbs 🤮 And body piercings? I was a sick freak for a tongue ring in 1988…same with tats. It’s NOWADAYS MODERN TIMES. Body piercings & tats are meh zero big deal anymore no no longer are they a sign of some rebel or anarchist…..😂 freakin old people get tats and piercings….or 16yr olds ….same with blue or weird colored hair! And there’s SO MANY genres and styles of music and dress now then compared to then…..sooooo accessible! You can dress how you want at ANY AGE NOW….I do and I’m 53…. BUT you’re gonna claim with a straight face that somehow it was SOOOO MUCH MORE LOOSE AND EASY regarding how one looked and dressed?! Just stop already, don’t embarrass no way you lived in the 80s. And society SO MUCH LESS accepting then now….gays were hidden and shunned. And all else….zero help for mental illness or crap help…on and on I could go… .
Hello there pretty ladies how could anyone not look love billy idol he can rock it so much positive energy in all his songs and that guitarist is fabulous
Freddie Mercury once asked "Is Billy Idol just doing a bad Elvis pout, or was he born that way? William Michael Albert Broad is his real name & he named Elvis as one of many of his biggest influences.
I worked in a nightclub during his Generation X days, and their Dancing With Myself was a big hit at the time. I'd have to mop up the spilt beer on the dancefloor throughout the night, and I'd get out there and dance with my mop when Dancing With Myself came on.
This artist came along just when I thought hard rock was declining. I was spoiled in the 70's with a huge number of hard rock bands. So when MTV first came out this really caught my attention. Great performance !!
Big credit to you both on the Elvis reference because I have seen other reactors that didn’t pick up on that. Elvis was his IDOL. I think this came out in ‘83. I was in college dancing my ass off in the many bars of Chico, California to this song. It packed the dance floor immediately! Dancing to 80s music was my aerobic exorcise back then. Came home soaking wet! For more 80s Music I recommend the B52s...... Love Shack, Private Idaho, Rock Lobster.
Man i grew up on stuff like this back in the 80's :)....Billy Idol deserve more cred and he's still AWESOME live. Heck hes all of us grandpa but is ripped.
GODDAMN BILLY IDOL!!!! I absolutely love this song! He's one of my very earliest influences to get me into rock music! Definitely do more of this legend!!
Hahahaha, I have never seen you two so animated and energized on ANY song before this one! But that is cool cos this song deserves it! It's one of my fave 80s hit and probably my top fave of Billy Idol, tied with White Wedding... the guitar solo on this song is amazing.
Billy was born in 1955 so as of the date, he is 66 years old. He looks fantastic and his voice is still awesome. I was fortunate enough to hear one of his latest songs, Bitter Taste, it's really good 👍. Give it a listen. You won't be disappointed.
Flesh Forr Fantasy (Below The Melt Mix) Do Not Stand In The Shadows, Eyes Without A Face, Blue Highway & Cradle Of Love are all great songs by Billy Idol. Once again a great reaction from both of you. He had one of the best drummers in Tommy Price & Steve Stevens on guitar, one of the best guitarists ever
Billy was pretty damned good. Gotta give him his props. Good pipes, quite the attitude, quite in control of his show, a real showman who knew what buttons to press, how and when.
Ahh memories of back in the day. This is punk rock and Billy was the KING of it. Great songs, great energy... a lot of jumping up and down or doing the 80's dance what is now called "The Carlton Dance. This is a perfect song for that silly dance. lol
I loved both of your reactions, both super cute, man the 80's were so much fun growing up as a kid, a lot of great music, great movies and seemed like there was something new coming out...definitely a fun era😜
I graduated 1982. We didn’t have internet, social media, cell phones… we were like pioneers, that walked 3 miles in a blizzard to go to school.. .. but we had outdoor keg parties every Friday and Saturday down at the lake with bonfires, beer and pot, and whatever other recreational substances that came around…..and yes your parents were hooking up with everyone

Steve Stevens, one of the most underrated guitarists in history.
Really not underrated by many famous guitarists !
His song Atomic Playboys was a good jam too
@@nicolasarbogast2739 What he meant was he was and is not well recognized nor appreciated as a guitar great by the greater masses. Many people would want, wish, and hope for greatness to be liked or loved by most of the general public.
Steve Lukather legend level
I like how he makes his guitar sound like a video game, in this song.
In 1989 Billy idol held a 3-week-long party at a thailand hotel. He apparently caused $160,000 in damage and the military had to tranquilize them to get him out of the room. Fucking legend.
Billy Idol is Cooler than most people can understand...
He was a true badass. They don't make 'em like that anymore. That's for sure.
No
He was back then. Not so much now.
Billy is from the original London punk scene. He was a legend before his solo career. This was early MTV, and helped usher in a second British invasion of music artists into the US. Steve Stevens on guitar!
Yep, he was even in a band called Generation X. One of the songs they had was Dancing With Myself, which Billy basically made a cover of when he went solo. The only difference between those versions of the songs are in the Gen. X version it had more rough punk guitar riffs and the ending is different.
Shush now
Played for Sousie Souix no less.
Steve Stevens from new York.what a player
The moment you realise everyone wants to live in the 80s.
And some of us did. 😉❤️
It was a blast!! 👍
It was better than you think ;)
@Phoenix Luca Obvious bot is obvious.
Best music, movies and time of my life!!!!
He was GEOGEOUS. I drool over him everytime I watch his videos or these kind of reactions
The 80s were the best. If I could push a button and go back right now I would.
Yeah me too 😎😏
I was only age 6-7when this 1st came out. So, even though I enjoyed it, I didn’t get to really enjoy for quite a few yrs later. 😉🥰 I’m lucky enough to have an older brother who graduated in 88.

Myself & my friends would have a wILd time listening to all the best hits /genres at sleepovers. God I miss the late 80’s! Great reaction! ❤️✌️👍
White wedding, dancing with myself, eyes without a face are some more of his hits.
Mony Mony as well, it's one of his best "fun and dance" songs they can rock out to
Flesh for fantasy
Shock to the system
And for a completely under-rated tune Body Snatcher has almost a horror movie feel with a similar energy.
YES, YES, YES!
Cradle of love! :)
Y'all making me feel old. I remember when this song was released.
Same. Was listening to some 'old' R. Stones, n damn, the realization the song is 55+ yrs! Good Lord! Dios Santos! Me darn ancient.
Yeah, as an organic pain collector I remember jaming to this on the radio and MTV
me to bud.
Billy's a pop-punk dreamboat, and anyone who says otherwise is lying to themselves.
That moment when you realize the 80's weren't 20 years ago 😂😂😂
Yeah that's me except it's depressing when in my head I'm like that was recent...
Just when I got my head around the 80's being waaaay in the past I have to come to terms with the 90's being 21+ years ago
I agree. I love my 80s music 🇬🇧
lol, and the 60's weren't 40 years ago!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sat next him on a plane in the late 80's, really nice fella.
Ur so lying
ArianaGrandeisqueen you got me. It's a little known fact that Billy had a phobia about airplanes flown by guys called Ronald. It just happened that the plane I caught was piloted by Capt Ron Jeremy and there was no way Billy was hopping on that plane!
Billy Idol is my favorite.. my dad is a huge 80’s fanatic. He’s cute with that infamous snarl face expression.. I learned about the 80’s through my parents
Your parents rule!
Great parents. They raised you right.
Gracias 😊 my parents are total 80’s nerds being the only girl in the family I enjoy the era as much as they do
@@ColonelSpankysLostBattalion lol he tries ya know I always laugh at him when he does the Billy Idol Snarl.. it’s cute I laugh
It's called a lip curl.
Billy and his sneer, broke a lot of hearts in the 80s.
I was there , The 80's and Billy Idol ROCK. I want MORE of you .
Billy was THE MAN back in the early and mid-80’s. I saw him live earlier this year (pre-Covid) and he was amazing. He’s in his 60’s now but he is in amazing shape. Steve Stevens (the guitarist) was with him too and it was so good to see these two legends back on stage together.
Lucky you, would love to see Billy Idol live! =)
The hair. The style. The music. Love it
25-40 yr old Billy Idol was GEORGEOUS
I saw Billy last year and still this song was rocking .
You girls will love his song to be a lover
pure energy with no phones in the crowd...miss those times. You girls picked a good one!!! Forever playlist!
1 Of the most iconic songs of the 80s - a classic that is a forever bop
I actually was at a Billy Idol concert around 1988 and it was FANTASTIC. Couldn't be still (me). Billy and band rocked hard. One of my best concerts ever.

Love the need to pause, to catch your breath and the low key side eye! I saw him in concert, and I was like.....I can't EVEN!!! So happy I was there in the 80s to experience all the amazing music. It's STILL my favorite genre.

Like a fine wine, Billy Idol only gets better with age. Check out White Wedding and Eyes Without A Face ladies.
this song and his song “white wedding” were 2 MASSIVE hits of 83-84
Yep, ladies. . The song came out in 1983. Such fun. Oh, the memories of that time period.
Billy is cute, isn't he. He aged well too. He is still touring.
Check out "White Wedding"
One of the best concert I ever went to in my lifetime. The energy was off the charts the entire concert.
Your reaction is why my band plays this song. People can't help but dance and move to this song. Loved the energy from you both.
Billy Idol always has that lip snarl. Love it!
Still so fun! He's still performing and still 😍

What a wonderful genuine reaction to an 80s song. Bravo
This artist came along just when I thought hard rock was declining. I was spoiled in the 70's with a huge number of hard rock bands. So when MTV first came out this really caught my attention. Great performance !!
I saw Billy Idol over 30 years ago in Houston and this was EXACTLY what his concert was like. Period!
I recommend "Blue Highway" for your next Billy Idol song.
It's one of my all-time faves of his, it's soooo gooood
Awesome reaction, Ladies!
Peace and Love to you!
My first concert was Billy Idol in 1986, with The Cult opening...so much fun...wild time...
Was anyone at the concert with Faith no More opening up around 90-91at the Cow Palace?
@@christakd5633 I saw Faith No More open for Metallica and Guns & Roses at 3 Rivers Stadium in Pittsburgh in 1992.
Best looking rock star in the 80s!
I was young in the 80s. I loved Billy Idol. I love the 80s music, so much that I've gone on five 80s cruises! Great reaction, guys, I subscribed. 😊
I watched them in a concert long ago. Awesome. I promise.
Welcome to the '80s it was glorious. I was 17 when this came out.
Yeah yeah Billy idol very very great!!!
We can all agree, he's cute
No no YOU can agree not me
My straight laced, Christian mom LOVES Billy Idol. She has his album.
Big credit to you both on the Elvis reference because I have seen other reactors that didn’t pick up on that. Elvis was his IDOL. I think this came out in ‘83.

God I hate the B-52s. Yuck.
Really great song . Gotta agree . Always my favorite by Billy Idol.
Man i grew up on stuff like this back in the 80's :)....Billy Idol deserve more cred and he's still AWESOME live. Heck hes all of us grandpa but is ripped.
I must have played "Idol Songs: 11 of the Best" at least one thousand times. Good to see Billy still getting recognition in 2020!
GODDAMN BILLY IDOL!!!! I absolutely love this song! He's one of my very earliest influences to get me into rock music! Definitely do more of this legend!!
Hahahaha, I have never seen you two so animated and energized on ANY song before this one! But that is cool cos this song deserves it! It's one of my fave 80s hit and probably my top fave of Billy Idol, tied with White Wedding... the guitar solo on this song is amazing.
I love to play Rebell Yell loud while driving my Car with open Windows!

One of the most enjoyable reactions I've ever seen! U girls just vibe so well!! ❤️❤️
One of his best songs - Eyes Without A Face
Love love love Billy Idol❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
There's a video of him being interviewed by David Letterman in the early '80's which is amazing.
Lol indeed. Dude was approaching Tony Montana level coked out. It was a fuckin hoot!
Yes! That interview is what made me love him in the first place. So iconic 😂🔥
If y'all liked that one then "WHITE WEDDING" should be next.
Bueno, que te vayas bien Chulas!!!
😉😎✌❤
Still crushing on Judi Dozier, the young lady on keys😍
Billy was born in 1955 so as of the date, he is 66 years old. He looks fantastic and his voice is still awesome. I was fortunate enough to hear one of his latest songs, Bitter Taste, it's really good 👍. Give it a listen. You won't be disappointed.

Never a dull moment with Billy…or his band.His lip curl is his trademark…Try” White Wedding”.
Wow! The energy!
Oh you just found ♥️Billy♥️ Get in line Honeys, been here since I was 4 ♥️☮️🙃 Love that you love Billy💖
Billy was pretty damned good. Gotta give him his props. Good pipes, quite the attitude, quite in control of his show, a real showman who knew what buttons to press, how and when.
I lived it in the 80's in Florida. Good times.
Billy is very entertaining, very cool and has some great song!!!
Ahh memories of back in the day. This is punk rock and Billy was the KING of it. Great songs, great energy... a lot of jumping up and down or doing the 80's dance what is now called "The Carlton Dance. This is a perfect song for that silly dance. lol
I loved both of your reactions, both super cute, man the 80's were so much fun growing up as a kid, a lot of great music, great movies and seemed like there was something new coming out...definitely a fun era😜
I graduated 1982. We didn’t have internet, social media, cell phones… we were like pioneers, that walked 3 miles in a blizzard to go to school.. .. but we had outdoor keg parties every Friday and Saturday down at the lake with bonfires, beer and pot, and whatever other recreational substances that came around…..and yes your parents were hooking up with everyone
... your reaction is priceless!!!!
A great British singer
