Billy Idol - Running From The Ghost (Official Music Video)

[@briankboyd]

Billy seems reborn.

[@GregKeesh1482]

One week ago I was playing hockey and, at 40 years old, I had a stroke. Today my goal was to walk down the hospital hallway and back to my room. As I was slowly doing that, about halfway through, this song came on. Through all the frustration and the most pain I have ever felt in my life, this song motivated me to take that next step...and the next one...and the one after that until I finished my goal. That may sound like some feel-good platitude to some of you, and that's okay. To me. Today. This song meant EVERYTHING. Thank you for it. Thank you.

[@Krolik_Ponchik]

Cool👍

[@annaelenalavarra4664]

Fantastic! His music is life energy!

[@snickersbud8799]

Well done, just awesome. It's amazing how music makes us feel🤘🇦🇺

[@andreasasengard]

Im almost crying. Same for me. 3 years ago i got a huge stroke. After a week at the hospital a remember that i stod up and crying and wonder, if i ever could listen to hardrock,specialy Amon Amarth. And talk to my kids,without headake. And today, after three years iam 99% ok. But still crying too everything😊But i can live whit that.🤘🏻

[@andrejaskoric5394]

stroke at 40?! how come? have you been taken the jab?

[@LoneRanger_420]

His voice gets more metal the older he gets. Literal legend.

[@RoryLaird-tc6xp]

British legend

[@JR-tg1vg]

Dude is a true legend. A monster vocalist/song writer. Steve Stevens is so underrated too. Keep up the good work boys! 🤘🏻

[@takashirose5668]

Exactly!!!! Billy Idol and Steve Stevens are like peanut butter and jelly, inseparable. You can enjoy them separately, but together they’re even greater.

[@ebbhead20]

How can you be underated when Stevens has been voted best guitarist in so many mags since 84 and up.? But more people should know of him. Thats true. But i guess someome does since hes always in these magazines..

[@manuelgallardo805]

I want to send you one intresting article talk about :steve steven is one of most importand guitarrist is his generation .for you undertand better who is steven steven

[@ebbhead20]

Holy smokes! Billy just knows how to write killer songs.... aging like wine, better with time. Well done Steve, the piano and guitar blend perfectly!

[@robinm4433]

You are so absolutely correct.

[@kbusby4824]

Well said.

[@rupman27isback]

Speaking of smokes.. that what his voice sounds like now lol

[@alukuhito]

Are you sure he wrote it?

[@vadimastprojects8770]

Sure. Like anything he wrote this CENTURY is better than "White Wedding" and "Rebel Yell"! This is a fine song (and "New Future Weapon" was even better) but -- come on.

[@aivalsonic3537]

The best music of all time was the eighties. The best music in the eighties was the mid-eighties. The best musician of the mid-eighties was Billy Idol. Billy Idol FOREVER! ❤💪👍 Greetings from AivalsoniC

Billy started performing around 76/7. The 70's had way more well written poprock songs than any other decade, but i agree the the 80's(when i got my first car) & started checking out live music was loads of crazy fun & unbelievable memories.

[@christiancheetham9650]

That’s a great song

[@pamelaramsey2916]

I recently saw Billy Idol, had VIP passes, met him and stood just feet away from him when he sang this song live. From the first note on, I listened to every single word in awe. He said this song is the story of his drug addiction years, which made every word even more amazing. It was very very POWERFUL ❤️

[@MarkPeschkeYukon]

awesome story and thanks for the context on the song! 🤘

[@Daisy-sc6tm]

I have loved Billy since the first time I saw the White Wedding Video back in like 1982.

[@Steve-sv3ln]

Let, Jesus, heal you, Billy. The Ghost that you're running from us, The Holy Ghost. It's not too late, Billy. Only the devil wants you to believe this. To steal your previous soul, is what he wants. Don't let him. He's not worth it. JESUS, IS WORTHY, THOUGH! Through Repentance and Baptism, as an adult, for our sin, makes us Born Again in the Spirit of, Christ Jesus. Stop running from, Jesus. And ask, Him, into your heart and life. You will be joyfully amazed at, His, glory and goodness to our souls! Beginning to prayerfully read in: The Gospel of John, will allow, Jesus, to enlighten our understanding of Salvation through Repentance and Baptism, as an adult, for our sin. This makes us BORN AGAIN! Choose eternal life! Choose, Jesus.❤️

[@MadiUk77]

fucking love Billy - he's just like wine - keeps getting better with age - still has his style - looks really good for his age and what a voice !

[@agarci7]

There are plenty of rock gods in the making coming up, while Billy is amazing. This boomer mentality of believing their generation of music is the best keeps you from experiencing the absolutely talented musicians coming up that look up to your heroes.

[@juanpabloarena2724]

@@agarci7Alfonsoooooo... While we discuss who owns the truth they are leaving one by one and the putrid mist of 'reggaeton' continues to rise. Puff! In any case, it could be said that all is not lost, a boy from California is reclaiming the pop / rock of the 80s with two projects. Drab Majesty and VR Sex.

[@forgacstamasgergely]

For those, who grown up on him, he will be idol forever with Guns, Aerossmith, etc, well said, the boomers🤘

[@gabrielletanner5339]

Dear Billy ❤ every song over the last 40 years an absolute winner...❤ and Jonathan Ross said 32 years ago when you were about 35 "you're getting on a bit Billy, how much longer can you do this " well at 69 you're still doing it ❤

[@rwascher]

It's amazing how a lot of the "older" artists seem to record pretty "blah" music just so they can put something out and continue to tour, putting more emphasis on the touring than quality of music. But everything I have heard from Billy's new record has been absolutely stellar! He just continues to pound out such incredible music!

[@mikelachey824]

Incredible? Compared to some of the material this guy has done. This is........incredible? I love Billy, but his career ended with that accident. I'm glad he's still making music, but let's face facts. This sounds like Mel Torme or Wayne Newton in Vegas.

[@hinduismwithpremananddasbhagat]

Man, I started reading your original comment. This is blah from Billy, while some of his peers are putting out great music. I have a friend who is a huge fan, seen him in concert, and I played for her the new stuff from the first EP and she cringed. She didn't recognize his voice, and found the music blah. This stuff doesn't feel like Billy, but a wannabe crooner. I'm expecting 5 jazz albums to come next and for him to start wearing a suit. I heard Kenny G will be producing. LOL

[@lucciusa551]

ACDC is out there man !! Power up just released last year !! Amazing

[@kimwaknitz7594]

Proof he is still as good as he was 40 years ago!!!!!

[@NoneeStarseed]

I thought Cage is the song of the year. But this one is building up perfectly, hits hard, hits deep, beautiful symphonic and power elements here and there and the vocal is so versatile fragile where it should be and kicks ass where it should. Wow what an emotional rollercoaster in one song! I'm in love!

[@tonato17]

Saw him live many times in London and last time was last month in Buenos Aires. Billy Idol along with Steve Stevens are the ultimate rockers. They are amazing at so many levels. I'm very thankful to them for everything that made me feel through my life! Rock on guys!

[@floridatoday5469]

My friend Billy Idol congratulations you still great!

[@asmodeusazarak]

Deceptively simple on the surface, this song has such depth. "The Jekyll to my Hyde" (not the other way around). "Don't you pray for me. It's too late for me. What can save me is night and day for me." I so hear this, great passion and poignant meaning. Though I'm loathe to admit it, I'm running from my ghost too.

[@angelaschiaffino4855]

A masterpiece! 38 years with Billy and Steve!!

I grew up on Billy Idol in the 80's and he still sounds so damn good. Billy Idol forever. I guess we are all running from that ghost though.

[@williambroadstreet3353]

40 years William Broad has been bringing it, and hard. Adding Morrison to the band was a masterstroke, his writing skills have used on this record and previously. Steven 'Fingers' Stevens is like Tracii Guns, one of the most brilliant axemen in rock history. Fuck Slash, an above average player who got lucky with global music corporates promoting him on steroids, Steve won a Grammy for 'Top Gun', has been loyal to Billy for a near half century. Steve and Tracii Guns ['Guns' is where the 'Guns' in GnR comes from] How many groups still write brilliant music today from the 80's? Not many.

[@jamesprice1549]

Good one Billy and Steve. Been lovin' you guys for 40 years now!

my little story..... listening to 'catch my fall remix' on the Vital Idol back in the 80's .. i noticed a bit of it that seemed to jump side to side on the speakers... this intrigued me so much i started studying stereo sound... then i ended up making holophonic and binaural recordings, i actually can lay claim to being the very first ASMR artist lol... cheers Billy. that little "whiziiziziziziz" changed my life.

[@edguyfanno1]

So here I am thinking "Cage" was already a true masterpiece for itself but this one is something straight out of control. I can't even find the words to describe the feeling this song is giving to me. Mind=blown. In very every regard.
