Billy's guitar player, Steve Stevens, is incredibly good.

[@billymuellerTikTok]

hell yeah! he played on Vince Neil's solo album and also played the Top Gun Anthem from the movie

[@Jorpando]

What a name xD

[@Xammblu_Games]

Those of you that want more more more of Steve's amazing chops check out the two Black Light Syndrome cds. It'll blow you away! You were warned :)

[@cuttyr74]

Now do eyes without a face!

[@prodigal71]

What you said...no doubt. My personal favorite

[@IsolatedAntagonist]

killer song

[@JCourts2k23]

Definitely do that one

[@SGED392]

The whole dang Rebel Yell album!!!

[@carlosrippy3337]

I agree

[@klasseact6663]

"FLESH FOR FANTASY"👍👍

[@THEDEEPDIVE]

iconic 80s song.. the vibe and vocals make this one rise above the repetition.

[@mattiefee]

It's a nice day for a light sweater.... It's a nice day for a, CAAAAAARDIGAN!🧥🤘

[@DPRyan-vd5pp]

Lol like a weird Al version, that’d be funny

[@RealDiehl99]

I'm hearing this song for the first time in like 20 years. I'm picking up on a lot of "ear candy" I never noticed before. Or those little nuances that Ryan and George would say make the song fly.

[@mo7s594]

Same

[@mysterfrosty]

It's thicker than I remember

[@TheRedWaltz24]

"Cradle of Love" should be one to check out as well. Billy Idol is definitely one of the best of the 80's; he was just cool.

[@toddhall5565]

Came here to suggest Cradle of Love and Shock To The System, both songs kick ass!!!

[@TheRedWaltz24]

@@toddhall5565 Shock To The System is a banger for sure.

[@Hillybean30]

I love Cradle of Love…but would it fly with them?

[@sammcbride2149]

One of those perfect artists for the 80's. The look, the sound, the attitude. He had it all.

[@ECLYPSER42]

'Flesh For Fantasy' is my vote for the next Billy Idol reaction.

[@theonlynolantube]

Top of my list of "Songs You should Not Play at a Wedding Reception, but I Have Nonetheless Heard at Wedding Receptions"

[@dananewsom5483]

I remember me and my sister dressing our little brother up as Billy Idol for Halloween one year when he was about 4 or so. He was so damned cute. And to have been as little as he was he played the hell out of it too, even down to that trademark Billy Idol snarl 🤣

[@timwhitnell7145]

I dressed as Billy Idol one Halloween as well but that a number of years ago when I was about 35.

[@timwhitnell7145]

Eyes Without A Face is a really atmospheric song from Billy where his singing ability comes through. Blue Highway, also from the Rebel Yell album, is another favourite of mine.

[@coreym0]

I saw him perform back in May and Billy and Steve still got it. So charismatic and so fun to watch. 'Hot In The City' is my favorite.

[@Nikki11369]

Ditto. Still so fun to see.

[@Zseventyone]

Steve still has it. Maybe Billy had a bad night when I saw him last but he was nothing like he was even 20 yrs ago, much less 40.

[@timcarter1164]

I think Billy Idol is an example of somebody with definite talent, surrounding himself with the right people to make the best of the talent he has through their talent. Almost everything he does is good if he's working with Steve Stevens who is a phenomenal guitar player. Billy Idol was successful at one point, but I think he has more underground success in the long term than he's had mainstream. Kind of an artist that's just always going to be around because his music is always going to be good.

[@wendyw4487]

one of the best MTV music videos ever..............

[@scottlaughlin9897]

Steve Stevens is the guitarist. He did the guitar work on Michael Jackson’s song Dirty Diana, and is in the video for the song as well.

[@jefferybarnett2073]

Billy is just cool!!! He and Steve Stevens are magical!

[@treff9226]

Generation X should be checked out by Billy Idol fans - killer punk band, with Billy leading them with his stellar vocals.

[@jenniferpedersen8920]

Love Billy Idol !! Great reaction!! I can’t believe y’all haven’t reacted to Skid Row yet! Sebastian Bach’s vocals are freakin Amazing !

[@jimmymac4559]

I still listen to him on the regular. It never has gotten old.

[@telefisswearin1973]

Hot in the City's vocal is unbelievable. Listen to that. Pure eighties.

[@Magni87]

My favourite version of this song is the unplugged version with Steve Stevens on the guitar.

[@geno9112]

Same! "Storytellers" That acoustic guitar solo is insane!

[@geno9112]

Actually I was thinking of "Rebel Yell"

[@stormmontpelier8681]

DANG!!! Reading these comments and suggestions, is making me realize just how AMAZING Billy Idol is. Every single one of these suggestions are total fire tracks! 🔥

[@TahoeNevada]

Steve Stevens is an underrated guitarist imo

[@IsolatedAntagonist]

Rebel yell was my fav album, with all the keyboards and guitar work every song was amazing

[@jacqueline4514]

God we had the best music, all across the genres in the 80’s; Rock, Rap, Hip Hop, Disco, Club, House, New Wave, Latin Freestyle, HiNRG, Yacht Rock and even some country; I listened to it ALL ❤

[@angelo_d]

The break down in EYES WITHOUT A FACE is a must listen

[@Hyperbog]

Definitely need to listen to part 1 & 2 together. Eyes Without A Face is fantastic. Dancing With Myself is awesome. Rock the Cradle. There are definitely several songs you could react to / analyze and critique. You guys really aren't even "Reactors" at this point. I'd consider you legit music critics. I tune in not just for the reaction, but the perspectives and breakdowns you guys give.

[@flipjupiter1]

Music critics are useless and pointless and most of them don't even play a musical instrument and have never been in a band before. True story. "Critics" and reviewers are as pointless as real estate agents. No need for them at all.

[@controlZchannel]

Steve Stevens has been my favorite guitarist since the 80s. Always the coolest riffs and he can shred.

[@rayhaynes2021]

I loved the music video of this on MTV. It's dope.

[@RealDiehl99]

Ryan was singing some opera when he sang, "White Wedding"🤣

[@cerisewilson4088]

Steve Stevens is a great guitarist! Saw Billy Idol live back in the 80’s with The Cult as the opening band.

[@jennhurl]

Steve Stevens is a killer guitarist 🎸

[@prodigal71]

Nice!! To see his REAL charisma, check out his cover of Mony, Mony LIVE...he really can control a crowd & it rocks!! I'd also suggest Eyes Without a Face & To Be a Lover (another cover but makes it his OWN). Loved the reaction guys

[@rodneycraft1005]

I saw him live in Loveland Colorado a few weeks ago. He was great, still.

[@janajames6153]

Hey guys! I hope y'all can get to "eyes without a face" if y'all haven't heard it already :) truly one of my favorite Billy Idol songs. One thing I found out is that in the song, a french woman's vocal can be heard in the background of the chorus saying "faceless eyes" by Apple translator, and "eyes without face" by Google translator. Idk I just thought that was cool lol. You guys should check it out!!

[@ther3aper561]

A personal favorite of mine from Billy Idol is Cradle of Love. Fun fact, the music video was directed by famed holly director David Fincher in one of his first projects

[@Hadogei123456789]

Totally agree with y'all! Always been my favourite Billy Idol track.

[@swordmonkey6635]

Steve Stevens (guitarist) got people's attention with this song. Amazing guitarist and very respected back then.

[@kenc2018]

I saw him the past summer and it's still a blast.

[@apimb1396]

It's a certified banger/classic

[@BlackieNuff]

The "Part 1" seems to be simply an alternative way of saying it is a "radio/single edit" or some such, cos White Wedding "Parts I & II" (aka Shotgun Mix) appears on his 1989 remix compilation, Vital Idol, a collection of 8 of his best/biggest hits remixed into longer durations with little sonic extras to make the songs pop more. White Wedding "Shotgun Remix" (as it's called on Vital Idol), basically sounds the same as the "Part I" from the original album, at least for the first half (ergo being "Part 1") ; once it gets into where the guitar solo would normally commence, that's when the extended instrumentals and expanded refrains come in (ergo "Part 2"). This full 8½-minute "Shotgun" mix of both "Parts I & II" is really worth checking out, assuming you dig this song in its "radio friendly" Part-1 format. Part 2 by itself does not exist as a single track (at least not officially).

[@loriwhitt9187]

I love Billy Idil. I don’t know why I don’t think of him more. Playlist of all of his songs

[@warrenelkins1861]

I like that his music always had a fun feel while still feeling cool .

[@brizmap9422]

That one part at the end where it sounds like he’s saying “ hamonnn itza” 🤣🤣🤣

[@mafrank1natural]

Please react to "Cradle of Love".... such an underrated song! for Billy idol actually had an injury and still did the video with a cool backdrop of him singing on the wall through "newer technology" back in 1990.

[@IsabelleRSG]

Always loved that song. It still sounds so cool...

[@anarchoutis]

Billy Idol is one of the coolest men to have ever lived.

[@dbrice71]

This song came out when I was 11, I loved it then and still do.

[@clasmaster1471]

I remember when it came out it definitely always had that punk feel to it for me. He’s a cool dude!

[@bitcrafter]

There's an extended version of this song that gets trippy and it's brilliant. You guys can follow up on your own time so you don't have to react to it, but it's here on YT called Billy Idol - White Wedding (extended mix) HQ - 8:21 length

[@mariaassante620]

Just saw him at the Cosmopolitan in Vegas in Nov 2023. He and his band were fantastic. He can sing really well, did all the hits and the band (Steve S) were excellent. Great show

[@jedolivier2688]

Ryan & George, your reaction podcasts along with POLO REACTS are the most authentic reactions. Keep up the good work fellas.

[@MrAitraining]

Billy always used great musicians and had terrific production on his albums

[@orbytl2799]

billy idol was a true rock star, he embraced the lifestyle, he was a bit of a bad boy back then lol

[@OldMusicFan83]

Billy is iconic of the early days of MTV

[@mathompson53187]

Billy Idol crossed over between the punk and pop world at a time when it was no easy feat (pop looked down on punk and punk absolutely despised pop or at least that was the fashionable posture at the time). Idol had a background (Generation X) and carried a vibe that attracted both worlds without alienating either one which was impressive.

[@vinceruland9236]

Steve Steven's was the heartbeat of the band. That's why Michael Jackson had him do all his early guitar work (except for EVH on Beat It) along with Janet Jackson

[@logancreed5041]

I've always thought Billy sounded alot like Jim Morrison from The Doors. Then I found out he did a cover of The Doors 'L.A. Woman' and I was blown away. Helluva cover of a great Doors song by Mr. Idol 🤘🤘

[@jasonmatthews806]

He was supposed to play Jim Morrison in the movie but got into a motorcycle accident and messed his leg up pretty bad so he couldn't physically play the part. However, they wanted him to still be a part of the movie so they gave him a minor role that wouldn't require much physical activity.

[@brianmiller1077]

@@jasonmatthews806 Val Kilmer looked so much like Morrison you started doing the math on his birth date (Were the Doors in his hometown 9-10 months before hand?)

[@logancreed5041]

@@brianmiller1077 He looked Alot like him. Kool thing about Kilmer, anytime they were on stage, He was Actually singing. He was talking about doing a Doors cover band but I guess it fizzled out. Too bad cuz that would've been pretty fkn kool 😎

[@davidpeters3857]

Excellent reaction ,always informative

[@NikkieTwix]

I love Billy Idol, he’s a legend 🖤

[@linkloudenback8359]

He started in the punk scene in the late 70’s . And then transition to rock in 80’s. This was because punk was taking off and becoming more mainstream. So his style of singing is punk based blended with rock. This is why it works.

[@cmccarthy]

The production on this record in particular is spectacular

[@Haxprocess]

absolutely, I really wish we can go back to this style of production in music one day...

[@dewapd1169]

Billy's new stuff he has been releasing lately is EPIC on all levels!! He and Steve Stevens are song writing machines!!

[@jack-of-all-trades1234]

This song will always remind me of Bam Margera and his CKY videos from back in the day.

[@AL13NM]

EYES WITHOUT A FACE is a Billy Idol MUST HEAR!!!

[@billtroxell2148]

part 2, keeps it going and then it gives you sauce, you didn't know the song needed the sauce, until you get the sauce, then your like " oh Hell yeah, sing it Billy", ha

[@ammaleslie509]

Haven't heard the short version of this in decades. The long version was really popular, and I had one of the rare copies that was pressed on WHITE VINYL. I bet that record would be worth a fortune if I could find it now.
