Billy Idol is a huge ELVIS fan. He even copied his half snarl which Billy has made his own. Billy is one of the best liked Rock Stars. People all over just love him. He's tough. Played SNL with a broken leg. Stood on his own two feet through the whole song. You could tell in his face he was in a lot of pain but he powered right through it.
Ok that was an awesome reaction. You both matched the energy of Billy’s performance her. And no, I don’t mind seeing this twice. More Billy Idol please!!!
In 2016 Billy Idol did a duet with Miley Cyrus to this song at the age of 61 still rockin' . Another hit from was Mony Mony which came out about the same time as Rebel Yell in 1983 .
I remember when Billy Idol was "live" on Countdown back in the 1980s. He was right off his guts. Did d a great act then gave a barely comprehensible interview he was so high.
If you really like Billy Idol you MUST check out "Dancing with Myself" Another rock star masterpiece! I'll be the first one to watch your reaction, I promise! Y'all are adorable BTW :)
When life gets back to normal you two where ever your at see a live show at one of your venues I know its 2020 soon to be 2021 this music is only played classic rock channels before the " Corona Clap" the was a surge of young cover bands playing these venues Im 45 ys old I think its fantastic that there are 20 yr olds rocking to these covers
Hi guys could you please do Chris Cornell when he was with Audioslave and the official music video called Cochise. ( pronounced Co-cheese) plus his cover of the Prince song call nothing compares to you. It was done in 2017 before he committed suicide a few months later. It was done at SiriusXM Studios. Additionally at that same session he did the song nearly forgot my broken heart. he also did the song fell on Black Days when he was with his original band called Soundgarden.. it is some of his best work and will bring you to tears in a good way and he pulls on the Heartstrings of the women in the audience and I think Miss Livy might appreciate the depth of his passion and pain. The songs were done in the acoustic fashion with both a mandolin and a cello in the session. I want to express my appreciation for the videos you do they are heartfelt and authentic. With respect always, Brant Heavner 😊😊😊 Thank You!!!
BILLY IDOL was famous before the 80s., he was the leader of a PUNK ROCK band called GENERATION X, his name is a Punk Rock name., and he was promoted as a solo artist after Generation X broke up, he was more like a new wave pop artist in the 80s
fun fact. Billy Idol wasn't a great student in school. He barely interacted unless called upon and his teacher called him Idle Billy and said he wouldn't be anything. So he turned that into Billy Idol
#Dean Bros I recommend you to watch the 93/93 MTV New Years Billy Idol concert were he destroys the old and out of fashion audience. There you can see his full energy live. It's on UA-cam.
Fist pumping Billy Idol! Stevie Stevens on guitar, also was guitarist on Michael Jackson's Dirty Diana. Catch My Fall, Eyes Without A Face, Flesh For Fantasy, Dancing With Myself (about masturbation) , White Wedding, Sweet Sixteen, Cradle Of Love...he has a huge song catalog. Loved him in the 80's, posters all over my walls.
You should react to "Wild Thing" by Sam Kinison. He was a comedian in the 80's. He was also the limo driver at the beginning of "Kick Start My Heart". So many famous musicians in "Wild Thing", including Billy Idol.
EYE'S WITH OUT A FACE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I put it on replay loop .
If you want another wild one w/Billy Idol and about 20 other hair-band rockers, check out Wild Thing by Sam Kinison: Every 80's Rock legend possible: ua-cam.com/video/3wAm2HAx7i0/v-deo.html
Billy Idol is the man, not the band....and he's still kicking ass... And did you really ask if the keyboardist was a part of the band?........I'mma let you think about that for a minute....
The 80’s were a Blast! Go to the club, great music to dance to, knowing every word (can’t sing-a-long to techno) and never had to worry about your drink being spiked!
Yes it was a blast. People came to the club early and stayed late (well maybe not late if they got some meat). And the clubs were always full. Today (even before this Covid crap) they are always empty. People are sitting home and thay come to the club like an hour before it's closing. 80' were the best imo. And now im old also, which always sucks :D
She occasionally replies to reaction videos if people mention her, but I haven't looked at all 200+ comments to tell you if she did on this one or not.
This song was inspired by a night with Billy Idol drinking Rebel Yell whiskey for the first time with Kieth Richards from The Rolling Stones and the guitarist Steve Stevens was also the guitarist for Michael Jackson and he can be seen in the Dirty Diana video
As far as I know, "Dirty Diana" was his only collaboration with MJ. He worked with Billy Idol throughout his career as guitarist and/or producer as well as doing other projects like movie soundtracks (TOP GUN).
Thank you for recognizing the rest of the band. He respected his band and seemed to not try to take all the spotlight. Especially with the guitarist Steve Stevens. You’ll notice in this video Billy stood back during Steve’s solo. And hey if he can play like that I would give him the stage too.
That's so cool! I went to high-school at that time with a guy that looked EXACTLY like Billy Idol except for black hair. That boy mastered the whip lash smile...he was a walking crime against girls. Just one look and he was I'm chsrge.😏
So Billy Idol is the singer/songwriter. Steve Stevens is the guitarist who put's the musical punch into the songs. Their pretty much a team. Like I said below check out "Rebel Yell acoustic" Each compliment the others skills.
I saw him live many times and as recently as 2 years ago. And hes still got his shit together. You two are great! (And i think someone may be a little smitten 😆)
Billy Idol never had a 'Band' when he went solo! An he asked Steve Stevens to play guitar on this album! Before he was BIG He was lead vocalist for a band called 'Generation X' A punk band with enough about them!

Billy Idol still looks good and he still sings just like that. He's hot
He sure as hell has aged well!!
Billy was wild back in the day and that deep sexy voice we all loved him. Going to one of his concerts was a wild experience and so much fun.

Good to see young people discover the best music of all time. My generation of music is the best...
Next one from Billy Idol - Mony Mony 😎👍🎶
"Rebel Yell" is always a jam...
Ok that was an awesome reaction. You both matched the energy of Billy’s performance her. And no, I don’t mind seeing this twice. More Billy Idol please!!!
Billy Broad is his real name but he was the 1st true American/British Idol!✌💛🤘
It's great to see the young generation appreciating 80s music.
I want to believe they are really into it, but 5% of me believes it's just for likes and views.
I love you so much guys! You're so unique, i really feel the real love for rock and metal that you have...keep rocking!
He was so great in person! I miss those days.
My favorite Billy Idol song
Billy Idol "Cradle of Love"
In 2016 Billy Idol did a duet with Miley Cyrus to this song at the age of 61 still rockin' . Another hit from was Mony Mony which came out about the same time as Rebel Yell in 1983 .
I remember when Billy Idol was "live" on Countdown back in the 1980s. He was right off his guts. Did d a great act then gave a barely comprehensible interview he was so high.
He was considered a bad boy back when.. but that was part of his draw...
If you really like Billy Idol you MUST check out "Dancing with Myself" Another rock star masterpiece! I'll be the first one to watch your reaction, I promise! Y'all are adorable BTW :)
Do the Generation X version, it has better bass
Dancing with myself video has Billy Idol and zombies 🧟♂️ What more could you ask for ?
Listened to billy idol in the early 80's high school days 🙌
Yep, your girl is a little rocker🤘. You should react to Billy and Steve doing this acoustic. Their a great team. You two are too.
When life gets back to normal you two where ever your at see a live show at one of your venues I know its 2020 soon to be 2021 this music is only played classic rock channels before the " Corona Clap" the was a surge of young cover bands playing these venues Im 45 ys old I think its fantastic that there are 20 yr olds rocking to these covers

Aww, her reaction was so cute. I think she might have a little crush on a younger Billy Idol. LOL 😆
When i listen to this song it reminds me of those old car chase movies from 80s and 70s such as: Dukes of Hazzard, Smokey and the Bandit and Bullit.
Billy Idol's the fuckin man!
Love it!
Bro this girl is amazing ... I am feeling like lost in your channel, bring back the girl, she is so smart and cool!
Love that girl she knows what's good lol
I saw them live back in the day!
This is a banger for sure!!
fun fact. Billy Idol wasn't a great student in school. He barely interacted unless called upon and his teacher called him Idle Billy and said he wouldn't be anything. So he turned that into Billy Idol
Essa Música E Show !!!
He was so big on Mtv when i was growing up in the 80's.
That woman on stage is a big part of the band,she plays keyboards.
Great Reaction! Start where we fell for that ' Billy Snarl in his early videos ' White Wedding, Dancing With Myself' and my fave 'Eyes Without a Face
I've always through that was one of the best lines ever written "I'd sell my soul for you babe, more money to burn for you"...
Billy is one of the leading lights of the Punk Rock movement in the UK. ,started out with he's group generation x...
Yo do Thomas Dolby' blinded me with science'......80's funk rock
#Dean Bros I recommend you to watch the 93/93 MTV New Years Billy Idol concert were he destroys the old and out of fashion audience. There you can see his full energy live. It's on UA-cam.

BABY BOOMER WORLD
Elvis Presley as a Punk rocker: Billy Idol!

Billy Idol is from a middle class suburb of London.

Your girlfriend has Great taste in music. You finally got me to subscribe.

Billy is a grandpa now.....but he’s still cool!
Poppy rebel is his granddaughter
I think we're all granpas and grandma's,I was 20 when this song came out,God,I was wild.Shhh...
@@glendagonzalez8974 so lucky there was no social media back then…..
His name came about from his teacher wrote that William was idle so that how he called himself Billy idol
you are correct he did not want to be confused with Eric idle so chose Idol as his surname
The 80’s were a Blast! Go to the club, great music to dance to, knowing every word (can’t sing-a-long to techno) and never had to worry about your drink being spiked!
And no time to waste with imaginary friends over Facebook lol
What parties do you be going to where you cant sing along. Thats only at raves lol. Yall act like people dont do stuff anymore thats so funny
Yes it was a blast. People came to the club early and stayed late (well maybe not late if they got some meat). And the clubs were always full. Today (even before this Covid crap) they are always empty. People are sitting home and thay come to the club like an hour before it's closing. 80' were the best imo. And now im old also, which always sucks :D
Amen
Why not go back to the beginning? Billy Idol Hot in the City. 💚
to be a lover!!!
Sorry to say it Scott but the beginning was in 70s punk rock.🍻
Gen X!!!!
🖤
The girl on the keyboards was Judi Dozier.
She occasionally replies to reaction videos if people mention her, but I haven't looked at all 200+ comments to tell you if she did on this one or not.
That lip thing is his signature sneer
Yes, indeed! When I think of the sneer, I think of Elvis Presley and Billy Idol.
@@0okamino
That’s because Billy Idol idolized Elvis, and took the lip snarl from him.
This song was inspired by a night with Billy Idol drinking Rebel Yell whiskey for the first time with Kieth Richards from The Rolling Stones and the guitarist Steve Stevens was also the guitarist for Michael Jackson and he can be seen in the Dirty Diana video
I thought that was the same guy!! 😁👍
weakkkk i see this after I post lol
As far as I know, "Dirty Diana" was his only collaboration with MJ. He worked with Billy Idol throughout his career as guitarist and/or producer as well as doing other projects like movie soundtracks (TOP GUN).
Thank you for recognizing the rest of the band. He respected his band and seemed to not try to take all the spotlight. Especially with the guitarist Steve Stevens. You’ll notice in this video Billy stood back during Steve’s solo. And hey if he can play like that I would give him the stage too.
He was so cool…and a great band,too.Famous for his sneer…the echo is fire.
That lip curl was called a "Whiplash Smile". I spent months perfecting that back in HS.(1983) William Broad is his name.
That's so cool! I went to high-school at that time with a guy that looked EXACTLY like Billy Idol except for black hair. That boy mastered the whip lash smile...he was a walking crime against girls. Just one look and he was I'm chsrge.😏
Yes, she's part of the band!👍🏾👵🏿🤗
Check out Billy's other songs:
Eyes Without a Face
Flesh for Fantasy
Hot in the City
Rock the Cradle of Love
Don't forget "White Wedding", that's my fav.
@@DavidSmith-pg1ob or sweet sixteen
If you like female rockers then you should react to Heart. They are great rockers!
Lita Ford would be a good start as well
Try Generation X (Billy's first band) - Kiss me Deadly. He was your age, or dam close.
Amazing you can definitely do the spike hair. Both of you should do spike hair on the next Billy Idol
He had a cameo in the Wedding Singer with Adam Sandler.
"Get out of my way Billy. You're gonna get hurt."
"NO ONE TALKS TO BILLY THAT WAY!"
This is my favorite Billy Idol tune, but he had a lot of great songs during the 80's.
Has some great new music as well. He is still rockn and is still with Steve Stephens
Incredible! with you the classics never die.
this song was written 1983, im proud of you guys to discover good music it melts my heart
So Billy Idol is the singer/songwriter. Steve Stevens is the guitarist who put's the musical punch into the songs. Their pretty much a team. Like I said below check out "Rebel Yell acoustic" Each compliment the others skills.
I saw him live many times and as recently as 2 years ago. And hes still got his shit together.
You two are great! (And i think someone may be a little smitten 😆)
Gotta do Billy Idol's - Catch My Fall and Dancing With Myself!
Billy Idol never had a 'Band' when he went solo! An he asked Steve Stevens to play guitar on this album! Before he was BIG He was lead vocalist for a band called 'Generation X' A punk band with enough about them!
Fantastic.I Love,love, love Him.I was around 11 or 12 when I discovered Billy Idol and still enjoy his music to this day.
Listen to Tears for Fears- Shout!!
Looks like Billy is playing in US on 18 Sept 2021. Asbury Park NJ . Get your tickets now !!!!
He's got sooo many great songs. His real name is William Broad, but he's an Idol for sure :-) He's an icon, and supposed to be a nice guy too
Try def leppard motley crue ratt much more of 80s
Can you react to Billy Idol - Hot in the city/ Cradle Of Love/LA Woman
Billy Idol,king rocker , fantastic live in concert 🇬🇧🌹
Billy is the band and that is the group and they still play
That's the Elvis (Presley) Lip Curl. Debbie Harry of Blondie had the Elvis Lip curl too.
