This song NEVER gets old ! Came out in 1983 I believe. The energy they bring to the stage is fire🔥. I can’t listen to this song and sit still! I feel like I’m right in that crowd .. it’s impossible to ignore the energy in this performance 🔥🙌🏻
70s
Late 70s early 80s
Cannot bring up the 80's without mentioning Billy Idol, great voice...great stage presence, awesome performer..recommend "White Wedding"
When they played this song live, the whole crowd was singing the lyrics and grooving just like Hollywood is. There was an intermission where the guitarist was the only one on stage, that dude was making his guitar sing, Steve Stevens is an underrated guitarist.
These dudes are old and they're still rocking out like they're 20, Billy Idol still has a 6-pack and he's shredded af for an older dude. It was definitely one of the best concerts I've been to, I absolutely recommend seeing Billy Idol live!
Steve Stevens got all the chops and moves
@@POZZA691 yep, he sure does. I didn't realize how great of a guitarist he is until I saw them live!
This man the lead guitarist steve stevens played lead guitar in MJs dirty Diana. Like Eddie Van Halen did in Beat it. So mr stevens is legendary in his own right
Steven Stevens excellent guitar player.
Anyone know his real name?
He's an absolute legend and a really nice guy. I'm so glad I grew up in the 70's and 80's...so many great artists! ❤
I saw Billy Idol live back in 2013 and it was an amazing concert, they had the crowd going wild. I will cherish that memory forever because my mom (RIP) was with me, I'm very grateful that I got to see several concerts with my mom back then. She was my best friend and we took care of each other, I dedicate this video to my mom 🙏❤
❤️🤗
Billy Idol came from British punk band Generation X. With their split in 1981, then 1982 saw Billy release his excellent debut album, and then the brilliant Rebel Yell album in 1983. I highly recommend those albums. Thanks for the excellent upload and reaction.
Gen X spilt in 1980 and 81 Idol debut EP Dont Stop
At school the teachers said he was one of them kids who'd never make anything of himself. They named him "Billy Idle". When he left school he changed it to Billy Idol and became a rock star, first with the band Generation X and then as Billy Idol.
Billy Idol and Steve Stevens go together like milk and cookies. You can't have one without the other. It's impossible. Even better, they sound as good now as they did back then, IF NOT BETTER. Aged like fine wines. You should absolutely check out some of their new songs. "Cage," for instance. Just came out a few months ago, and it's an absolutely amazing song. He put out a whole album in 2014, Kings and Queens of the Underground, that started a VERY introspective era for Billy, and it's been that way since. He still rocks hard as hell, still has that punk attitude, and his voice is like butter.
You have to check out 'Mony Mony' by Billy Idol, it'll make you leave your seat with energy 🤘🤘🤘🤘
The guitarist Steve Stevens plays the main riff on MJ's Dirty Diana 🔥👍
A must Billy song is Flesh for Fantasy. Promise you'll love the grove. Billy and the gang had lots of swag being from the Punk side of life.
How can anyone not enjoy this song????
Billy Idol started in the British punk band Generation X and then went solo,this song was inspired by a night when Billy Idol was drinking with The Rolling Stones in a bar in New York City and they were drinking Rebel Yell whiskey and with Billy being from England he had never heard of Rebel Yell whiskey before and after probably hooking up with a cute hottie he wrote this song
Do you know the names of the drummer and bass player in this video? All these years the lineup changes over and over. These 2 look like men I've seen performing w Joan Jett. Thanks!❤❤❤
Man, I nearly fell out of my chair when Hollywood said 'The British are coming!'. Yes, they are! And they're loud and proud! Shout out to one of the most under rated guitarist, Steve Stevens, too!
Billy's guitarist Steve Steven's did an outstanding job playing on Michael Jackson's song Dirty Diana. A rebel yell is a battle cry or war "whoop"used by Confederate soldiers during the Civil War. Also considered a scream of defiance.
Billy came out of the late 70s English Punk scene…….Steve Stevens, the guitar player, is amazing…
Steve Stevens is the guitarist in the video.
I love Billy Idol. I don't know what brought y'all to this song this morning but I am glad for it.
Its a trip you guys posted this just now and heres why. I lost my uncle quite a few years back and for some reason before this got posted. i just started thinking about him and quietly laughing to myself over the memories we had. Then bam! My notification goes on my phone saying you guys uploaded this song. It was his favorite and he was the one that got me into billy idol. This was a cool reaction. Thank you for that nice trip down memory lane! 🤘
I always thought it was interesting a British rocker used the term "Rebel Yell" and it worked! Billy was king of the punk rock genre. What a great time it was to be young!
Dude still looks good today and an artist that everyone loves
One of my favorite songs from early childhood since I was born in 85 and started absorbing music straight out of the womb
Every teenage boy in the 80s wanted to be a Billy idol bad boy!!! He was a great stage performer as well!! 🔥🔥🔥💯
The guitarist is Steve Stevens he was also the guitar man on Michael Jackson's "Dirty Diana", my favorite video of his. You should see what he looks like in the movie "Sid and Nancy".
Billy Idol is the absolute best. He has so many hit songs that are great but what I think many people miss is that he actually he has tons of deep cuts that are so good and that touch upon so many styles.
BLUE HIGHWAY
DO NOT STAND IN THE SHADOWS
MAN FOR ALL SEASONS
PUMPING ON STEEL
THE LOVELESS
SPEED
GHOSTS IN MY GUITAR
…and even up to his newer stuff over the last couple years. You should definitely do a whole lot more of his music.
I loved his video for his song "Cradle of love" .
Directed by none other than David Fincher...it won the MTV Music Video Award of the Year. The song went all the way to #2, becoming Idol's 2nd biggest hit after his live rendition of "Mony Mony" reached #1.
Saw Billy Idol in 2019 and he was incredible. His voice held up well.
Billy Idol is one of the greats of all time... and going out on tour in 2023....
Fun Fact : Billy Idol curls his upper lip because he’s a HUGE Elvis Presley fan.
Billy put out a lot of great songs in the 80’s. Eyes without a Face is one of my favs.
Classic from a youngster on MTV
Saw Billy live a couple years ago and he and Steve (guitarist) KILLED it. Best concert in a while
Billy Idol I'd classify as more glam rock more than anything. A lot of his songs are about women and partying. He was real popular in the 80s. I'd put him in the same category as Van Halen and maybe Motley Crue. Credit also goes to Billy's long time guitarist of about 40 years or so too. If you do more Billy, White Wedding is what's next. If you guys ever saw the Wedding Singer with Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore, he made a cameo and I think they used this song in the film. Interesting timing,because Billy just received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame recently.
Everyone loves Billy Idol!!! That's what makes his appearance (Cameo) in the Wedding Singer so much better!!!
worked backstage at his concert, he and the guitarist (Steve Stevens) didn't know what PLANET they were on but it was EPIC..
With a name like Billy Idol, you're going to need swag. And he's got all of it. But still his guitarist Steve Stevens has got it all as well.
Billy loved Elvis, you can see the influences here. Idol still kickin ass, rocking today.FANTASTIC.
The 80s were an incredible time!!!
Billy Idol and Steve Stevens are still going strong these days. An absolute Live Recommendation, if there is one. If you want to look at a Live representation of Billy Idol and his band look no further than Rock am Ring Live 2005 here on youtube. Stunning.
Billy said this song is about a cry of love, you got it right. React to Billy Idol, Eyes Without A Face.
62 old and still rocking with the 80s, amazing you didn't know about him.
Morning fellas! Wow! Takes me back to the 80s. I really miss that time!! Billy idol was blasting up the TV on MTV amongst other great artists! Great song and great music video guys! Thank you! ❤️😁🤓
I bought a few pice of shit cars when I was a kid . I got a pioneer stereo with a cassette player and when I got my speakers , let’s see pioneer 6x9 and subwoofers installed with no box and the amp all buckled in . To
See how they sounded I played . Rebel yell. Hell yea!! Love your channel guys!!
Prince played the synthesiser parts in Stevie Nick's song "stand back". Very Kool!!
When I was 12 "Rebel Yell" was my "desert island" album. At 13, it wasn't. lol. But this song ALWAYS fires me up, no fail.
Louis Gossett, Jr. Actor. Ex-NBA player (Knicks) and songwriter. The documentary of Woodstock, opens with Richie Havens playing a song that Gossett wrote called, "Handsome Johnny." You should react to that version.
I was maybe 5yrs old when i first seen/heard Billy idol and he was my vital idol. Probably the most influential man in my life i still spike my hair to this day which started because of Billy he's the man. Gotta listen to White Wedding or Mony Mony
BILLY IDOL WAS THE BRITISH 77's PUNK ROCKER FROM BAND ,GENERATION X!!!
Punk rockers never die!!! We scream ourselves away☝🏴
❤️❤️love Billy, love the 80’s….any man who sings that he would sell his soul for you…..oh lord 🤩……🤣🤣
"It's sounds very sexual" sums up most music from this era.
At some point in almost every 80’s straight rockstar autobio, they will arrive at a party, and the most stunningly beautiful man will be sitting at the bar, it’s always Billy..lol.
Great reaction thanks 🇨🇷
FANTÁSTICO BILLY IDOL
VIVA OS ANOS 80S
VIVA BILLY E STEVE
I saw Billy Idol when he was in Generation X,way back in 1977.....they were fire then.......maybe you should check out " youth youth youth" by Generation X......it still sounds great 👍....have to say that they all look like extras in the "Escape from New York " movie😁
Billy Idol is a pretty smart dude. He was just a kid in the punk band Generation X. When they split, he was hanging out in New York dance clubs and underground places. He reinvented himself with a plan to mix a bad ass guitarist (Steve Stevens) with a dance beat like the kids were checking out in the clubs. And of course punk attitude. He has a lot of hits and still jamming today with Steve.
I had such a crush on Billy Idol as a kid when I was going through my punk phase. You should react to some more Billy. How about White Wedding, Cradle of Love, Dancing with Myself and Sweet Sixteen?
You guys are hysterical. Love your reactions. So pure and down to earth. I also so respect the friendship you two share. It’s really evident watching you corresponding with one another.
In his time there was no one like Billy Idol. The guy had swag, looks, voice and presence. He was a beast and everyone loved him.
80's were a great time to be a teenager.... so much to do and enjoy.
Billy Idol’s sneer is iconic. His guitarist is stealing the show 🤣. Hollywood’s “Not gonna lie, I do be lying sometimes” is my favorite quote. 😁. Billy Idol had so many good songs in the 80s - “Eyes Without A Face”, “White Wedding”, and “Flesh For Fantasy”.
Oh I love eyes without a face! Great song!!!
Don't forget Dancin with myself, Cradle of love, Hot for the city and Mony Mony!!!
@@kristaspecht great song and backstory! 👍
@@randywissler9923 He also did a great cover of "LA woman" by The Doors.
His guitarist is Steve Stevens. The dude lives in Japan now and was even a guest on an episode of Iron Chef.
The guitarist is Steven Stevens. Is really underappreciated. He plays guitar on Michael Jackson's Dirty Diana.
Personal record 7 in one day I was 20 and that record will never be broken
The guy playing the guitar is Steve Steven's. Highly rated guitarist. Seen them live. Incredible!
I fucking love Billy Idol I don't care if I get to be a hundred years old I will always fucking love Billy Idol
yup good times, good times.
I loved Billy idols appearance in viva la bam too, cut a moon roof with a saw in bams lambo back then before a concert
Man this takes me back! Everyone sings billy idol songs when they come on!
Energy in his performance and voice
Steve Steven's guitar playing really elevated these songs IMO. Dare I say, Billy wouldn't have had the success if it weren't for Steve. Glad for that duo... so many great tunes.
This song owns
The guitarist name is Steve Stevens he was Billy Idol's guitarist and if you ever seen the video for Dirty Diana by Michael Jackson he's the guitarist
Check out Billy Idol “Mony Mony” live 🤘🏻🎤🎸
The meaning of this song is clearly explained in the first two sentences:
"Last night a little dancer, she came dancing to my door,
Last night, that little angel, she came pumping on my floor"
Not understood yet? Read them again... more, more, more. ;)
About the guitarist, Steve Stevens, a very talented guitarist (listen the unplugged version of Rebel Yell, Live On VH1 Storytellers in 2001), he performed with Michael Jackson on Dirty Diana. You can see him on the video clip, and his haircut was more amazing.
Steve Stevens is a phenomenal guitarist. He, also, performed the Top Gun Anthem.
Eyes without a face
My favorite idol song.
@@jasonsanders6630 ditto
Fav of mine!
Steve Stevens one of the most underrated guitarist ever ✌️
We saw him live last week for the first time. He was awesome!
Steve Stevens is Bad Ass The thinking man's shredder and the shredding man's Picasso.
He won a Grammy for The Top Gun theme .
I saw him in 83’fun concert
So primal. Loved him since the early eighties.
In 2018, Idol became an American citizen during a ceremony in Los Angeles, while retaining his British citizenship.[64] In 2020, his daughter Bonnie gave birth to his first grandchild, daughter, Poppy Rebel,[65] and in 2022, another granddaughter, Mary Jane, appropriate!
At a televised performance of VH1 Storytellers, Idol said that he had attended an event where Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and Ronnie Wood of The Rolling Stones were taking swigs from a bottle of "Rebel Yell" bourbon whiskey. He was not familiar with the brand, but he liked the name and decided to write the song.[3]
The song was co-written by guitarist Steve Stevens. The instrumental introduction, which sounds like a combination of electric guitar and electronic keyboard, is performed by Stevens on guitar alone, who intended it to sound this way. Stevens states that he was inspired by acoustic guitarist Leo Kottke's style.[4]
I loved growing u in the 80’s. Even the stuff on radio was good for the most part.
Billy Idol was great in Adam Sandler's movie The Wedding Singer. He also had a cameo role in the movie The Doors and did a great cover of L.A Woman by the Doors.
You were actually right Smokey - Cambridge=Harvard! I'm from NW FL - we did the rebel yell at all of our high school football games, a very throaty "Ye-ow." As others have stated, Steve Stevens in MJ's "Dirty Diana." 🙂❤🤘
Goosebumps every time, LOL!!! Great reaction.
"Flesh For Fantasy" is a MUST....
It's 39 years old. Dame wow. Great reaction.
For more Billy Idol rockers: "To Be a Lover" and his version of the Doors' "LA Woman."🤘
He changed up the lyrics and re-released the song for Christmas back then too... "In the midnight hour he cried ho,ho,ho!"
He was punk, new wave.
He still tours and sounds as good as he did in the 80s.
Love this one! All of us girls were so in love with Billy! Love your AC/DC shirt! I still have my album I bought when it came out!
You guys straight up made me laugh 🤣 Great review!
His voice and his energy is next level. Please check Don`t need a gun, To be a lover and Flesh for fantasy.
As a little kid in the 80s I rocked that haircut with a mullet in the back ! Im not ashamed (maybe a tad lol ) ! I wore them spike bracelets and belts . I even had a lightning bolt earing when i was 7 ! Laugh all you want , i would too ! But it was a fun time . but i progressed to glam and thrash soon after ! Pick your poison there lol ! But im still a thrash guy . My mom said " its just a phase " . At 44 I still listen to thrash and punk !
The 80's were so awesome...
It’s a brand of whiskey but attitude too
Billy Idol guitarist Steve Stevens played guitar on Michael Jackson's hit Dirty Diana in 1987. He also played guitar on Motley Crue singer Vince Neil's solo album Exposed.
Vended - Ded to me! Griffin Taylor and Simon crahan! Slipknot kids! 🔥🔥🔥 Griffin screaming like Iowa corey and Simon drumming like joey!!
