A true classic by one of punks best. The 70s and 80s would not have been the same without Billy Idol. The title of the song is from a French horror movie. The girl singing in the background is his girlfriend at the time singing it in French. Billy had some of the best punk music. Rebel yell, white wedding (anti wedding song),flesh for fantasy ( named after a movie flesh and fantasy), mony mony , and cradle of love. He is filmed from the waist up in the video because of a motorcycle accident and at the time couldn't walk. He's still out there rockin hard with his guitarist Steve Stevens. Just saw them in concert this month. And this song will always be my favorite because I know what it is like to date a narcissist and that's what the song is about.
Idol’s best song imo, but kind of a “curveball” from his previous big hits (White Wedding, Rebel Yell etc). I was very familiar with both of those, but “Eyes” is his masterwork.
Same guitarist from my fav Michael Jackson (R.I.P.) song, "Dirty Diana"! More Billy Idol, as this is one of his more mellow hits, try "Dancin' With Myself" or "Rebel Yell", then maybe "White Wedding"
Thanks for running this uninterrupted. This song was huge not just on radio but also on MTV when it was still wall-to-wall music videos. It showed Billy could sing anything, not just "yell".
Awesome......you two grew up in the wrong times for different some many great types of Rock and Roll......but now, you get it! Saw Idol once in Norfolk Virginia, was in the Air Force on leave at the time.
Very cool reaction you guys! =;-D I can't remember accurate but I do believe Billy had some boxing training at a time in his early life. Hence, the leather gloves in his videos.
For so long I didn't know that the chorus had French phrases. I even had a record of this. I'd thought those were: precious, desire--until I checked the lyrics in UA-cam!
Killer track
"Rebel Yell" "White Wedding" and my fav "dancing with myself" are just some of his great somgs...
La woman is a good cover too
Best reaction ..No pauses 👍

Try Rebel Yell, completely different vibe.
