If you like this then you need to check out Tommy James and the Shondells the original writers of the song and my favorite version. I still Love Billy Idol he's a hoot.
Love this song, I've two versions downloaded, this fab version by Billy Idol which is so good, and the original version done in 1968 by Tommy James and the Shondells (it reached No 1 in the UK Charts), such a great version too. This song is so upbeat, great to dance to and Billy Idol's version is so full of energy. I just love Billy's voice and he's such a showman - fantastic! Really enjoyed your reaction, guys, so interesting - thanks.
I wonder if you'd be interested in doing more "Stevie Ray Vaughan - Tin Pan Alley (With Johnny Copeland)" Billy Idol was always such a controversial figure. During interviews with talk show hosts they always grilled him over his performances and insisted he glorified violence. But he's always been very opinionated and charismatic.
This was THE song at a lot of clubs in the ‘80s. Not one to start with, but after everyone was a little, um . . . happy (aka “drunk.”) We’d go nuts when it came on, screaming “C’MON!!!” at the top of our lungs. * sigh * I miss those days of dancing, drinking, the beach, and the tight bond of being a U.S. Marine - especially amongst us WMs (Woman Marine/Women Marines.) So sorry about the terrible strife going on in your part of the world. I hope you and your loved ones are well. 💛 Love from America! 🇺🇸
Billy Idol’s Cradle of Love is INTENSE and he was performing while recovering from a motorcycle injury which is why he is only in the video a limited amount of time. He lost the role of the evil Terminator in Terminator 2:Judgment Day because of his accident.
Billy Idol is touring soon in 5 countries and has 36 concerts scheduled. He’ll also be in Wisconsin and Minnesota in concert. You guys should get tickets and attend... and do a video from the concert for your channel!!! That would be awesome, to finally see you both enjoying a band live!!! You should seriously do this! Life is short fellas. Do it while you’re young.
@@michaelshields7777 Wow!! Incredible lineup. I love all those guys. Good for you. That’s gonna be a hell of a concert. Wow. Enjoy, man. I love Toto, and Journey is one of my favorite bands. Have fun!!!
I said Hey! Hey What? Hey, MF’er Get Laid, Get F+cked! Yeah! Yeah! Ride The Pony. Come On! THAT audience interaction is what you’re missing from this song. The thoughts that couldn’t be spoken, let alone Rebel Yelled about. We needed a touch of musical anarchy and Billy Idol delivered, satirically and lyrically.
Guys you should listen and react to Deep Purple’s Smoke on the water Live In Oslo. This version for me is much much better than the original one. Love your content guys and so much positive energy!!
You guys are on point BILLY IDOL was from my era in the 80's so it wwwas and still an amazing amd wonderful song. I f you guys like energetic music try some soca music from Macheal Montano and other Trinidad and Tobago soca mùsic you will love it and get a larger amount of subscribers ❤
Love Billy Idol, there are many more of his songs for you to react to. Also, could you react to Gabriel Henrique and his cover to Mariah Carey’s song, My All?
Half expected an adult to peek their head in the door and tell you that you’re music is way too loud. 😂 And then I remembered that the world lives in ear phones now so no one knows what or who you’re listening to. We enjoyed music everywhere all the time, it was like a heart beat we grooved to together; for Mels and GenZ music seems to need an appointment for enjoyment.
I'm thinking you must have heard the studio version of this at some point. If not, you should really listen to it. I know a lot will tell you to listen to the original version of this song, and of course you should. But I personally prefer Billy Idol's version.
Great reaction!!! You guys are awesome!!! Like others have said…. You need to hear the original Mony Mony! Although Billy Idol does an amazzzzing job on it!! You 2 would be fun to be at one of these concerts with! Thanks again!!! Always happy when you post another reaction!!!!! MOODY BLUES…. QUESTION! (Studio version to hear all the amazing details) Please please please! Pretty please 😶💜💜
Good choice song to react to, Billy Idol few days ago turned 66 yrs old & still touring to sell out crowds with his side kick guitarist Steven Stevens, feeling nostalgic right now
I always liked “White Wedding” & “Rebel Yell” and they were VERY popular back in the early ‘80s. So, if you haven’t yet heard them, I think you should check them out since you’re liking him so much.
Much as I love Billy,seen him 3 times in concert,all in the 80’s,I do prefer the original from Tommy James. It’s a solid gold party classic. Great version though.
Saw him about ten years ago and his show was great! After the show my sister and I went and stood by the tour bus to try to meet Billy with no such luck, but we did meet and talk to his guitarist Steve Stevens. Very nice guy and an awesome guitar player.
Play this in a crowd and the crowd tells back "hey hey what, get laid get f*cked". Had it at my wedding reception...but we didn't say the cuss words in front if the old folks 😂
