      Some are live shows… this recording is a live show…the music is… but the video might be a compilation of other shows… there was a lot of that… also some seemingly live shows are studio recordings .. it’s a mix of all that

      Billy idol got more pussy than any other man in history.. probably… he used to have orgies with with a dozen women.. every night.. and he was the only man.. reportedly… I don’t doubt it either..

    Billy Idol got the title for this song from the Rebel Yell brand of bourbon whiskey, which has been around since 1936. On an episode of VH1 Storytellers, Idol explained that he was at an event at Ron Wood's place in New York City where Wood and his fellow Rolling Stones Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were taking swigs of Rebel Yell straight from the bottle. This gave him the idea for the title, and he wrote the song around it.

  • @jenfries6417

    I've heard that in this case, the band recruited several busloads of fans to do a live show for, to be filmed for the video, which was then edited to fit the album version of the song. So it's both live and not live. This is what Billy Idol's shows looked like, but it sounds more polished than it would have in real life. "Rebel Yell" was released in 1983. Back then, music videos were new and relatively rare, and filming a live show was the easiest way to do one. Later 80s videos could get pretty inventive.

    Was the lead singer for Generation X from 76-81. I think that is where our generation got the Gen X title. I was raised in a diverse musical household so I got to start listening to Gen X at 10. Was my direct path to stuff like Black Flag, Circle Jerks, Suicidal Tendencies, Jodie Foster's Army, Minor Threat. I know it was my generation but after looking at other generations, I will die on the hill that Gen X had the best music of all time.

  • @user-fl7ho3ir8c
    @user-fl7ho3ir8c Před 8 měsíci

    The artists and directors of music videos of that era really liked concert type videos. Some of them were actually made from footage taken at live concerts, however, some, I'd even say most of them, were studio videos that were made to look like they were taking place at a concert. The best way to tell is to look at the audience itself. if you see a massive amount of fans, like AC/DC at river plate, for example, you are clearly watching a live concert. An audience of only a few hundred people are so typically indicates a studio simulation.

    A "rebel yell" was a Confederate battle cry during the American Civil War, and Rebel Yell bourbon (made in Kentucky) shows a soldier on a horse charging into battle. Billy Idol, who is British, knew a bit about the war, but didn't want that to be the topic of the song, so he changed the meaning to be "a female cry of love." The song is about a passionate one-night stand with a woman who wants "more more more."

    Guitarist: Steve Stevens. Won the Grammy in 1986 for the Top Gun theme and Michael Jackson requested him for Dirty Diana, check out that video. He’s one of the top 10 1980s rock guitarists, universally liked and respected.
    For a change of pace but equally epic song check out the official video for Bjork “Play Dead”

  • @UnclePengy
    @UnclePengy Před rokem +1

    This song came out in 1983-ish, I think. Idol's songs "Dancing with Myself" (which I think is the song that put him in the mainstream) and "Mony, Mony" are also worth checking out. And "White Wedding."
    Here are some other recommendations for you:
    I see you already watched Van Halen's "Hot for Teacher." "Panama" and "Jump" are also good Van Halen songs from that era.
    You really should listen to some Queen. Freddie Mercury was arguably the best male vocalist of the 1980s, and their harmonizing is operatic. (Recommended: "Bohemian Rhapsody, " "Killer Queen," "Somebody to Love")
    And if you want to listen to the absolute best female rock vocalist of all time (a fact nobody will argue), allow me to introduce you to Heart (with sisters Ann Wilson, lead vocalist, and Nancy Wilson, guitar and backup vocals). Recommended: "Barracuda," "Magic Man," "Crazy on You," and their live cover tribute to Led Zeppelin, "Stairway to Heaven," is a tear-jerking must-see.
    Also, check out what is probably the most underrated band of the 1980s: Foreigner. "I Want To Know What Love Is," "Feels like the First Time" and "Hot Blooded" would be my top pics for that band.

    You haven’t covered one of the most advanced group of musicians the rock world has ever known. RUSH is a prog rock power trio with one of the best guitar players, an amazing bass guitarist and the world’s best drummer. You’ll think there’s 8 musicians on stage. The lead singer’s voice is unique and he also plays the bass, keyboard and even uses his feet to play a synthesizer. They have numerous amazing songs but, you should start slow and watch the live version of Xanadu. Btw, both guitarists use double-neck guitars. The drummer has been called “The Professor “ by his peers and has also been described as “your favourite drummer’s favourite drummer”. Their following is literally world wide.
