BI was probably THE ultimate sound of the 80s.

I can’t STAND that sound, but he was the best example of that singing through the nose so popular at the time.

My favorite Billy Idol song. It brings back memories of breaks between innings at Wrigley Field back in Ryne Sandberg’s heyday.

Good song and I had to look if he’s still alive. He is, and he did a Christmas album 10 years ago, too.

Glad to hear he’s still kicking. I was listening to this song on the radio a month or two ago and wondering if he was still alive.

When I first misheard the lyrics, I thought he was saying “How’s about a date?”.

I had a few Billy Idol albums back in the day. I think I still have one on CD.

There would always be one song on the album that would be a departure from the others and they left an impression on me to this day. Very down-tempo with haunting lyrics. The two I remember were “Sweet Sixteen” and “Endless Sleep.”
