      This is the problem with youtube and other social sites, there are people out there always looking to screw others over ...there needs to be better security... I have other reactor channels I like to view were I have been "sent messages by the supposed creator". I always used Xtreme language when dealing with them...the algorithm really likes that.. to be honest I haven't seen it for over 2 months now. No authentic creator would do such things . And no honest subscriber would create a fake account.

    This song is special to me because one day, my dad and my youngest son had gone to the store. They pulled into the driveway and sat there blaring this song as they sang it at the top of their lungs, in pure joy. My youngest was about 8 at the time. Both he and his grampa are gone now, each from different forms of cancer, only a few years apart. So every time I hear this, I can see them sitting there singing happily - " More more more!"

    Well GenXers, we did it! He said he's "sick of rap"! Now he understands why a good portion of us can't stand it either. We grew up with the music he has STARTED to listen to in the last year. We take for granted how spoiled we were growing up in the 70's & 80's. Hip hop & rap really started to take off in the 90s and we, as a generation said "nope" and found the nearest "classic" rock station and pegged our radios to it. "Bruv", keep up your expanding horizons of music, there is still so much more out there. Well done!

Most of the boomers I knew were listening to 50s music (Do Wop, Elvis, etc.) I personally am not claiming ownership of the creation of the music, just the appreciation of it and the dollars WE spent buying it. So to quote young people "OK, Boomer". You are acting like GenZ. Don't read so much into it.

    I am 63 and was 22 when this came out -- when I first saw and heard Billy. He blew my mind. He was part of the 'second British wave" in America -- New Wave. Listen real close to his voice when he sings actual lyrics -- he has a great voice. And I do not believe anyone else can growl like him. At 63 I am still a die hard Idol fan and I still bang my head to his music. He gets this old girl's blood pumping every time. I raised my son on New Wave, hard rock and Punk. It is something we share together.

    Billy Idol is one of my all-time favorite artist. He was sensational in the 80's combining Punk, New Wave, & Rock n Roll. We thought that you needed to see him because he is British and had his following in the Michael Jackson era. Enjoy!

    I absolutely love Billy Idol. I was in my teen years when he came out and I thought that he absolutely rocked. He's from the UK, I know that he was injured in a very serious motorcycle accident and it kind of stunted his career. He's awesome. Love you MollyBoy. Peace

    The Cult, "Fire Woman". Another great 80s/90s UK band, great blues based rock that really kicks hard. Also, 'Love Removal Machine' by The Cult, it hits really hard. They were really big & all over MTV & great live, I saw them twice in the 90s. Love to see you branching out to different rock stuff.

    The Rebel Yell originated in the American Civil War. When confederate troops were ordered to attack, they would scream at the top of their lungs. It had to be terrifying in battle to hear advancing troops, sometime 50 thousand of them, screaming and running toward Union lines. There is also a rather nice bourbon whiskey by that name

    everything about the 80's was both 'different'...and 'fresh'...which is what make's everything about 80's music so much more awesome than anything since, whether it be pop, hair, metal, or country - it was all fresh...and it was all awesome

  • @bretttodd6470

    Obscure fun fact. During the club scene in the early 90's... the crowd would yell in between verses of Billy Idols song Mony Mony. The lyrics went... Here she comes now saying Mony Mony. And then the crowd would yell "hey everybody get laid, get fucked" for some reason. They did it between every verse and I'm not sure why. It was bizarre and a bit immature but funny too. I can't help think of that everytime I hear Billy Idol.

      When we were someplace where we had to clean it up a bit, we’d change it to,”Hey! Hey what?! She’s fat, I’m drunk!” During the chorus we would also chant,”f’ing bullsh*t” during all the “so goods”. Yes, it was childish, but that was the 80s! It was a blast!

    Steve Stevens, the (excellent) guitarist, not only played on most of Billy's best albums, but also provided the guitar solo for Michael Jackson's 'Dirty Diana' and played the guitar on the 'Top Gun Anthem' from the soundtracks for Top Gun and Maverick (as well as doing a bunch of under-rated session work, and playing the guitar part for Juno Reactor's track 'Pistolero').
    When my then-girlfriend won a pair of tickets to see Billy Idol quite a few years back, she didn't understand why I was so excited that Steve Stevens was touring with him.

    It sounds very 80s because it is… this album came out in 1983. The part you saw on the TV screen that’s familiar was a video snippet that was commonly used in ads for MTV.
    Try Depeche Mode’s Never Let Me Down Again from their LIVE 101 concert.
