    Billy Idol’s name was inspired by a schoolteacher’s description of him as “idle.” On his school report card, the teacher wrote “Billy is Idle.” He took that as his name but changed it to “Idol”. So, that’s how William Michael Albert Broad became Billy Idol!

      Hi there. I remember reading something about that somewhere. I knew his name was William Broad but up until then I didn’t know where he got the ‘idol’ from. Thanks for letting us all know that. much appreciated. Take care.

    The crush is understandable. He has Elvis vibes. And yes, the 80s were awesome for music. It was at the apex of music talent before music was overproduced. Second British invasion. And no autotune. Also, I think you'd like Billy's songs Eyes Without A Face and Dancing With Myself.

    Great reaction Millie Idol! So much fun to watch you rock!
    So many of his songs had such great driving bass lines like this one. Thunder from the rhythm section. My favorite song off of this album was probably Blue Highways (which I still drive too fast while listening to) followed by Daytime Drama, but I always liked the good songs that weren't released as singles.
    I first heard Billy Idol at about the same time I first heard Generation X, which was his previous band with Tony James who went on to found another great 80s oddity band, Sigue Sigue Sputnik. Through the early to mid 80s my favorite spit in your face style of rock musicians were Billy Idol and Joan Jett, both absolute rock legends. The 70s and 80s had some amazing music of a variety of styles.

    Billy Idol came up in the punk rock wave in Britain in the late 70s, with the band Generation X. But he's known for his hits as a solo artist in the 80s and early 90s. He did keep some of the punk rock aesthetics for his 80s persona though, like the spiky hair and whatnot.

    Billy Idol was the artist name, but really it was a duo. The guitarist who I forget the name of now is an immensely talented musician who wrote the Top Gun theme. You can see the chemistry and showmanship between them. Credit where it is due. Dio had a similar thing going with his guitarist.

    He was part of the original British punk movement which the Sex Pistols created. His punk band Generation X had a couple of hits between 1977 and 1979. _Into the Valley of the Dolls_ is pretty good, and you can see in the performances he hadn't quite nailed his look or his stagecraft yet.

    Written by Billy Idol and Stevie Stevens. Billy Idol was in a New York City club with The Rolling Stones. Idol saw a vodka named Rebel Yell. He took the name and wrote the lyrics.
    In the same club, he introduced Nile Rodgers to the late David Bowie. The 2 produced Let's Dance 💃.
    These events happened after Bowie and Queen petformed, produced and wrote Under Pressure.

    Billy had a contemporary in Adam Ant, who also went from a lead singer with a band (Adam & The Ants 9:53 ) to a successful solo career. In AA's case though, I think he released better music before he left the band.

    @caphowdy666 Před 10 dny

    There are so many solo rock stars as well, it's not just about bands. If you go back to the 50s rock n roll, most of the big names were either solo artists or were in bands named after themselves.
    Billy as mentioned, started in the 70s with Generation X, and became a solo artist in the 80s. Similar to Lita Ford and Joan Jett who were both members of the Runaways in the 70s, and went solo in the 80s (although Joan was influenced heavily by the 50s so did the whole naming the band after herself thing). Other solo 80s rock stars include Ozzy Osbourne, David Lee Roth, Bryan Adams, Billy Squier, Pat Benatar, Yngwie Malmsteen, Michael Monroe & Eddie Money. Some may have started in bands or used band names, but they were very much solo artists in their own right too.
    And then you have 70s artists who moved into the 80s like Alice Cooper and Meat Loaf.
    Plus, there are some bands that really were about one person. I mean if you look at Whitesnake, they started off as a band, but over the years they changed into basically a David Coverdale solo project, with a revolving door of musicians backing him up.
    You really should though react to some of the latter day Billy Idol, with stuff like Scream from 2005 or Cage from 2022. Those songs show you that even though he is a lot older now, he is still the same guy from those songs in the 80s.
    Also, I highly recommend checking out some of his stuff with Generation X in the 70s. King rocker is a personal fave as it was the first song I ever heard from him when I was a kid, and didn't even know who he was til years later.
