First time listening
#billyidol #reaction #music #shon
White Wedding, Eyes Without a Face, are great too
Hell, yes
Billy Idol and Steve Stevens, one of the greatest duos of the 1980's.
I saw them at Bonnaroo about ten years ago...still DESTROYING IT on stage!!
💪💥💪
Saw them last Summer and they were both still amazing!
This song is SAVAGE - a perfect mix of rock, pop, catchy lyrics, originality, and charisma. Music today is weak sauce in comparison.
You said it man!
"Dancing with Myself", "White Wedding", "Rock the Cradle"
Hell, yes
100%
'Eyes Without a Face' next please.
Love Eyes without a Face!
Billy Idol is punk-pop & awesome sex appeal 🤘🏼🎤🎸🙌🏻❤️
bet ya don't confuse those 2 Billy's again. Now throw Billy Squire in the mix the first one that comes to mind is Stroke with more great guitar. All time fave guitar for me is Joe Perry of Aerosmith
😂💯
Billy Preston, too
Billy Ocean
Lol! I'm SURE he'll never compare those two again! Can you imagine Billy Joel singing this rocking song? Don't think so
YES YES YES. THE STROKE❤🔥 PLEEEEEASE
Billy Idol is a f’ing rockstar!
"Dancing with myself" and "Mony Mony" can't lose! Peace ✌️ and ❤ Gary 😊 80's rule!
Steve Stevens on guitar… man, he was and still is a supremely inventive guitarist. Gets all kinds of insane sounds out of the most basic effects pedals, and equally able to go onstage with just an acoustic guitar and rock the house behind Billy. There’s a version of the song from Billy’s “VH1 Storytellers” performance where they do exactly that, and it holds up every bit as well as the original. Check it out if you get the chance!😎🎶
She cried…more more more 😉
As an older man it takes me back and fills me with sadness at the same time 😅
Cried a REBEL YELL so strong he wrote a song about that night 😬🤪
40+ years later and this tune still gives me goose bumps.
So happy you discovered Billy Idol! My favorite by him is “1982. White Wedding. Billy Idol. Long version Part 1 & 2” Here's a link:

❤️🔥VITAL IDOL IS SUPREME❤️🔥
The best reactor on UA-cam!!!
Sexy back then, sexy to this day ❤ Yes, Billy has that "it" factor that all the greats do! Cannot emphasize how huge he was in the 80's....right behind MJ and Madonna.
Oh he was gorgeous but I never would have wanted him for a boyfriend, he got around 😂. But for a night, oh I would have been up for that back then.p when I was young and wild.
Seems like only yesterday this song was out. Now he’s 68 yrs old. Hard to believe how fast time went.
68 and can still get it!!!
And The Cage (2022) is my favorite song of his, and I didn't think anything could top Rebel Yell, and White Wedding and Rock the Cradle. He is still just amazing.
Rock the cradle of love please
Cradle of Love is a good song ...under the radar 🤘🏽
Guitarist Steve Stevens also played the Bad Album by Micheal Jackson
I beg your pardon, but I believe that was Eddie Van Halen on Beat It.
Steve Stevens was on Dirty Diana... so yes he was on the BAD album RIP MJ 🙏🏽
@mslisadianemorse BEAT IT was on the THRILLER album and Eddie only did the solo
@@PML78 well, getting older here! 🤣🤣
@mslisadianemorse I'll say Vintage 😁...😉
"Mony Mony" video by Billy and Co. is the BOMB!!! And yes, Steve Stevens is SHREDDING in this video...................great reaction, brother!
It has to be the live version too
@@NZLatic I agree!
Thats Steve Stevens on guitar
That solo made me love this song even more 🎸🔥🤘🏽
🎸🥁🖤WHITE WEDDING!!!
it's a nice day for a white wedding.....a nice day to start again....
The fast reverb sound you heard during the solo was the guitarist (Steve Stevens) taking a toy Ray gun and pressing it against the guitar pickups to get various wacky lazer like sounds. He’s known for doing this on multiple songs and his live shows. Glad you caught that 😉 👏
Steve Stevens, awesome guitarist. Got that sound in the solo by holding a kid's toy "Ray Gun" to the pickups.
Your smile is infectious 😊…..Billy came out of the British Punk scene of the late 1970s. His guitar player, Steve Steven’s is amazing in his own right. Try the title track from Steve’s solo album “Atomic Playboys”.
you were hooked from the beginning, so were us 80's kids!
I remember how this song blew my mind when it came out. I played it over and over again. Truly a life changing CLASSIC. So hard driving but smooth at the same time. Creativity at it’s highest level!
He was gorgeous too.
'Was' is so very true, the man has not aged well probably due to a wild lifestyle
@@samolevski1119 WAS is the operative word.
One of the sexiest man to ever live
Billy one of his best songs❤, thanks Shon!
Billy idol is one cool dude. Do white wedding by him. He’s always full of energy.
Did you notice that Elvis curl in his lip, he's definitely an idol ! Peace ✌️ ☮️ Gary
You have to do Shock to the System just for the backstory.
Billy was in Los Angeles when riots broke out in response to the acquittal of the cops who brutalized Rodney King. He got so excited over people rising up he jumped on his motorcycle and drove around through the riots. He said it was the most punk rock thing he had ever seen in his life. (Keep in mind he was part of the OG punk scene in England so he doesn't say that lightly)
He was so impressed and hopeful he wrote Shock to the System as a tribute to the people of LA who threw down
Shon you're reactions are the best on YT for sure. You're understanding of lyrical content is pretty good for a newbie lol! Billy Idol was 1 of many posters I had on my wall in the early 80s and now you HEAR WHY! A different vibe but 1 of my fav bands is 311- Homebrew.
Definitely not Billy Joel.😂 Just another great Billy. Please bring back Duran Duran and INXS. Rio from DD, official video and anything live from INXS. Try The Loved One, live from Australia in 87 or What You Need or Suicide Blonde (anything really) live from Wembley Stadium in 91.
The strange sound at around 5 minutes and 10-12 seconds is done by the guitarist using a toy ray gun pushed up against the guitar's pickup and it is so cheap and creative and I never knew how they did it till about 5 years ago. And due to being almost 50 and having an older sister that loved him from just before he came over from England that pisses me off and makes me smile!
I came to say this same thing about the toy ray gun. Been about the same length of time that I learned about it too.
@@mikeharris3733 Lol! I always thought it was an effect or something. Glad I am not the only one!
Punk pop!
The best sneer in the business!
Elvis would like to have a word.
Mony Mony!
Love ya reaction. His Is name is really William Broad , he once got a report card at school saying Billy is idle, idol.Or so the story goes. One guitar you got Steven Stevens …❤They came to Australia for some rock awards and the host asked him what ya been up to in Australia ,Billy replied I’ve had some heavy sex since I got here.😂❤
Trivia: Rebel Yell is Kentucky Bourbon. Apparently The Rolling Stones and Billy were at a party drinking this bourbon and the idea of a song came to his head.
More, more, more: In 1993 he released ‘Cyberpunk’, an album that somewhat anticipates the sounds in Prodigy's ‘The Fat Of The Land’. This happened in a wave of cyberpunk fever with some really good and/or interesting movies: re-release of "Blade Runner (Director's cut), Johnny Mnemonic, Strange Days, Demolition Man, Max Headroon (TV), The Lawnmower Man Hackers...
The party was for Mick Jaggers birthday and Mick , Keith and Ron Wood had a bottle turned up drinking from it. Billy saw the bottle and recognized a confederate soldier on the label and that the liquior was called Rebel Yell. Out of curiosity he asked them if it was something they had special made or owned the rights to. They told Billy it was from America and they had nothing to do with it. Billy said great , cause he was gonna write a song and call his next album Rebel Yell. The rest is history ! !
Seen his show when I was 16. Crazy time
Gotta love Billy Idol. he is still touring for love of the music. he SURE don't need the money $60,000,000 (60 million)
Billy Idol - British
Billy Joel - American
And being British shows how different!..Elvis was watered down sex appeal, too shocking, the Brits had the freedom..
Memories! ❤ Billy Idol.
Gotta love Billy!
The lip 😁🤩
When I first heard and saw this song on TV in early 1984 as a 16 year old it just blew my mind. I was already a huge Billy fan after his first album but this just took it to another level. I saw Billy play in 2019 and he was still awesome and, unlike most older rock stars, in incredible physical shape. He was ripped! And Steve Stevens, the guitarist on this video, was playing too. What a couple of legends
He hit the scene like a nuclear bomb man.
😆 Yeah, Billy Idol is NOT Billy Joel.
Steve Stevens was a guitar God!
Billy Idol - Dancing with myself ❤❤❤
Billy Idol - White Wedding ❤❤❤
Great reaction my friend. Congratulations. This is a fantastic song, full of energy.
Seriously, one of the best rock moments, best performances. Billy Idol- underrated as hell! Steve Stevens- heir to Jimi's insane creativity.
Always a crowd pleaser….. such energy
It's savage in a delicious way! The perfect rock/pop song!
Great Reaction, Shon! React to Billy's earlier videos that made us fall in love with him. 'White Wedding' and 'Dancing With Myself' original videos please. They are bangerz!
His songs brought punk into the mainstream for a time. 'Eyes Without a Face' was very popular too as was 'White Wedding'.
Eyes without a face ❤
You know, I looked up what an actual Rebel Yell sounded like--VERY different from what I think most of us pictured!!
In the early 20th century, they got a whole bunch of actual Confederate veterans together, and they each came up to the mic and recorded their version. They were all a bunch of high pitched, kind of quavery yips--didn't really sound much like yells, more like being surrounded by coyotes during their nightly howl sessions. Get enough people doing it at the same time, and I can definitely see it being intimidating on the battlefield, but it was 0% Dukes of Hazzard/YeeHAW, which is what I'd always pictured.
The real thing kinda works in the context of the song, but it's NOT AT ALL what I would have expected when I first heard this song decades ago!
Hot in the City is worth a listen!
Something more recent from Billy Idol is the song Bitter Taste, released in 2021, I think. Still just as good as everything else he's done.
Steve Stevens is one of the great guitarists. He played guitar for Michael Jackson's song Dirty Diana and hes also played on many film scores. If you've seen Top Gun then you'll have heard his guitar playing - Top Gun anthem (the intro) He won a Grammy in 1996 for his work on Top Gun An exceptional musician and he's had a working relationship with Billy Idol for more than 30 years 😊
If you wanna do guitar.. try Prince with Tom Petty doing While my guitar gently weeps at the George Harrison induction to the R&R Hall of fame in 2019.. and prepare for the molecular structure of the world to be shifted ❤
Man your energy is gold! I've messaged before to tell you how much love you and will always watch you, hear your comments/opinions on the classics you listen to because it always brings a smile to my face 😊 although, I do have an unrelated question... how come you never have a shirt on? Lol believe me... I don't mind, just wondered? Is there a reason behind it? All best kiddo! ❤
Billy 'effin' Idol is the most conceited, contrived, cliched, insincere and unoriginal bozo ever to enter into the music business. The man is an imposter.
The lip curl is AWESOME!! Iconic!
I stood in front of the TV and sang my heart out with Billy on VH1 back in the day when it was cool. My mother woukd come in, shake her head and leave.
SO glad you liked billy! he is a god! i have seen him twice in the last 2 years. i grew up listening to him since i was 4 yrs old! dude you need to do on here, Dancing with myself, White Wedding, Eyes with out a face, cradle of love, mony mony, hot in the city and to be a love and Flesh for fantasy!
I saw them in like '82. Was 10 feet from the stage and they were wild. Energy off the charts.
My friends and I were sooo in love with him❤great reaction❤
Ahhhhhh takes me back to my crazy younger days - good times good times ❤
This most definitely is not the Piano Man..LoL My man Billy is still doing it last time I checked.

Yea dude, that sounds was a toy ray gun that he held over the pickups in the studio 😂
Thumbs Up for Steve Stevens !!!

"To Be A Lover" is banger!
