Brad hit it right: Dancing was a serious thing in the 80's. The dance-offs were pretty epic, as they drew in some seriously talented footwork....aaaaaand pretty hot girls, cant forget them haha.

@cmortenson3647 Год назад

and substances. hahaha. I saw billy idol a few times live,. Maybe 5 or 6 times, I can't hardly remember them for all the substances , but as a 15 and 16 year old, I thought he was the coolest thing I ever saw. plus that tattoo was dope. the 80s were a simpler time for sure. sometimes it was rough but it was pretty cool.

We were so lucky back then. It shows up in the positivity of the music. it's not like there aren't great things going on now, but it sure seems like it was much easier to be happy and have fun then. It was like the culture fostered more happiness and less judgment.

Per Songfacts Billy got the idea for this song after watching Japanese kids at a Tokyo disco "dancing with themselves" in a nightclub. The kids would dance in a pogo style up and down, and there were mirrors in the club so they could watch themselves doing it. This song is about more than just dancing. Idol told Rolling Stone: "The song really is about people being in a disenfranchised world where they're left bereft, dancing with their own reflections."

Back when punk/new wave music came out in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, a lot of people did dance by themselves at clubs, so these lyrics described the club scene.

Generation X to Billy Idol. Great singer. Followed them when I was a punk in the 70/80's. His guitarist [Steve Stevens] played with Michael Jackson in "Dirty Diana" among a load of other famous artists. Another underrated guitarist.

Billy Idol started as part of the 'Bromley Contingent' a group of punks who followed the Sex Pistols and made punk fashion popular. They were also big fans of yes you guessed right Lex, David Bowie, plus Roxy Music. Billy then went on to become a popstar in his own right as did Siouxie Siouxie and Steve Severin, other members of the Bromley contingent, who formed Siouxie & the Banshees. You really need to check out Siouxie sometime, she's cited by many female artists as an inspiration as a ground breaking frontwoman. Robert Smith of The Cure was also a Bashee for a while and learnt how to be a frontman by watching Siouxie. 'Spellbound' would be a great Banshee's track to start you off, or perhaps 'Israel'. 'Rhapsody' is a great track to show off her vocal range and a personal favourite.

@evilfantasy69 Год назад

Billy Idol started out as pure pink rock. One of hos first bands were recording at the same studio where Led Zeppelin were recording and they would hurl insults at the guys in Zeppelin calling them geezers and stuff like that. His roots are in punk but (my opinion) he was smart enough to know how to market himself to a wide audience so we get songs like this.

@joegillam1497 Год назад

Spellbound is fantastic. One of my favourite songs. JuJu is a brilliant album

@joesmith8725 Год назад

"Spellbound" is a much better introduction to Lex, she's like it. It's more typical sounding for Sioxsee and the Banshees. Gothic, darkwave, post-punk.

David Bowies punk rock nephew. 😆 Billy Idol was awesome. New wave punk music. He was huge when I was a kid. Yes we danced a lot on the '80s and '90s. That why we were more thin and fit back then 😆. We danced to everything. New wave, punk, ska, freestyle music, funk, disco, rap, r&b, etc. Carefree times.

@saintsataniko2116 Год назад

Man, I loved Billy Idol. He was so refreshing in a sea of hideous classic rock bands at the time. He looked great, he sounded great, he wrote amazing songs and had one of the greatest guitarists ever in Steven Stevens (and they still perform together).

@terrylandess6072 Год назад

Lol, sorry - your description on the times makes me think you were probably around 14 or younger. Eddie Van Halen was in his prime - but I guess he was hideous as well. :) I was around 25 and saw Idol as part of the explosion of music genre's which flooded MTV back then. No hate - just amused by this post.

@cattuslavandula Год назад

He was so young here! Look at that baby face, lol. White Wedding, Mony Mony, LA Woman, To Be A Lover, and Rebel Yell. So many songs. He did a ballad, Sweet 16, which is pretty and is a great video. But especially Rebel Yell, lol. In the midnight hour she cried MORE MORE MORE! To Be A Lover is great too, but you MUST watch the official video and see Billy in action. Bwahahaha!

@alukuhito Год назад

He originally recorded this song with his band Gen X (formely Generation X), before he went solo. He was a punk rocker, but punk was dying. He went to NYC (from the UK) and saw how vibrant the dance scene was, so wanted to mix punk with dance, and this is what he came up with.

@jeffreekoch9298 Год назад

Yup. New wave punk. 🎶

@bintheredonethat Год назад

Concerts in the 80s were jam fests. People never sat down, they danced in the isles, they danced on their chairs. If they happened to be out on the concourse they danced there. It was like a giant organism in constant motion. Those that lived through this time know what I'm talkin' about. A Billy Idol show was no diff. Loved it! Did a show with this group. Walked into the production office after the crowd came in and there were like 5 big cardboard boxes full of leather wrist and neck paraphernalia with the spikes all over the stuff. It was considered weapons and was confiscated at the door. They could take it back to the car but the walk was so far most just gave it up. Great show though. Definitely an energetic punk type crowd.

@THEDEEPDIVE Год назад

@@jenniferfoster1692 thanks Jennifer. You are correct. Billy idol and Gen X bassist Tony James are the songwriters for this song. I encourage folks to listen to the Gen X version of the song. A lot of us like that version better.

@StMichael7 Год назад

That’s why we GenXers felt so much excitement every single time we got a new album precisely because we didn’t have quick access and instant gratification like cell phones lap tops and tablets give this generation. Even the anticipation of waiting for the next album even if we had to walk or take the bus to pick it up at record store was awesome and in a time when there were so many good bands. I loved all the large pictures and lyrics that came inside the album and couldn’t wait to get home to play it then brag to my cousins and brother that i had the latest album

@jamessomers8808 Год назад

This song got airplay on the radio and MTV because it's upbeat and catchy and talks about dancing...but pretty much everybody who was young at the time thought it was really talking about masturbation. Listen to it again with that in mind, and once you hear it that way, you can't unhear it!

@amandaguest7742 Год назад

@ramonacosta2647 Год назад

The inspiration for the song occurred during a tour of Japan by the English post-punk band Generation X in mid-1979, when its vocalist/frontman Billy Idol and its bassist Tony James were struck by the sight of the young crowd in a Tokyo discotheque dancing with their own reflections in walled mirrors rather than with one another.

Billy Idol was in a group called generation x. He was the lead singer and so… as happened many times before he went solo. This was one of his first songs. Guess what happened MTV. They were on 24 hours a day and guess who they put on the tv? Bands who had music videos. So many bands wouldn’t lower themselves to put their music on a damn tv screen. Madonna did . Cyndi layperson did. Others did and other came along after .

@philiphull2913 Год назад

Funnily enough Bowie and Billy Idol were both from the same suburb of the same city - Bromley in London.

@joesmith8725 Год назад

New wave/punk , dance-punk music. Power pop, '80s pop-punk. Whatever yall want to call it. Billy Idol had great music, '80s and '90s solo career, too. . We definitely danced to a lot of different types of music back in the days. All kinds of genre. LOL. Why do yall think we were so skinny and in shape back in the '80s and '90s. It was exercise and fun. Huge hit back when I was a kid. David Bowie's punk rocker nephew indeed! Idol was also in a post-punk band Generation X during the '70s and early '80s, check out their songs/Videos. Billy Idol has punk rock roots.

So I've always been a Billy Idol fan and he's incredible to see live. Saw him a few times when I was a teen/early 20's and took my girls to see him when they were in their teens and they loved him too! One night way back when...was at a bar in cottage country and the place wasn't overly busy when this song came on. Had to dance, so up I hopped and was Dancing with Myself (along with a pool cue!) when some guy hops up and joins me. Had no idea who he was but what a blast! We were so in sync (even with the pool cue!) and dancing with ourselves & each other we ended up getting a round of applause and drinks bought for us the rest of the night! Different times, and Brad is so right, music was something we felt through to our bones. Love that you are both so open to hearing all the great tunes out there 🥰

In the 1980s, we lived to going out dancing, about 3-4 times a week I was out at different dance clubs in San Francisco with my friends - we danced for hours. As I got older I got hooked on salsa dancing and would go with my husband. It seems young people now don't dance much or they don't know how to dance.

You may have noticed that quite a few of the bands you guys react to have members of the bands that I know. Billy Idol is another one. The bass player in Billy's band is a friend of mine for around 40 yrs, named Steve Mc Grath. He's been playing bass for Billy at least 20 years now. He played in a band from our neighborhood in Los Angeles back in the 1970s called Seagull and they were one of the two biggest bands in L.A. club scene trying to get signed to a record deal and they played a Battle of the Bands for the best unsigned band against Van Halen. You may have heard of V.H.? You can guess who got the record deal, thanks to Kiss member Gene Simmons. Billy is one of the biggest rock legends for 80s music and before that as the singer for Generation X

This was my fave MTV video!! I would get so psyched to hear this when it came on. I was about 14 or so at the time. Brad, interesting observation about dancing in the 80s. Never thought about it that way but sort of true. The dancing really took off in the 70s with disco, but disco got extremely uncool but the dancing remained. Myself, I *hated* dancing, but I had to always to deal with it at school dances and going out to clubs when I got older. They even under-age dance clubs.
