New Billy Idol - Still Dancing

I like it. Standard Idol, but it's a pretty catchy tune that sounds like something from the MTV era. I hear a little Rebel Yell. Not sure if it's part 2 of Dancing With Myself (I can hear that too).

I always check out new releases on Friday morning. This will be part of an upcoming EP from Billy. He isn't my "goto," but he's pretty damn solid to this day and SHOULD put him in my regular rotation.

Cool song.

Has anyone ever seen Idol and Martin Kove in the same room?

The track(s) Butch Walker produced a few years ago were better than this initial single... my 2-cents!

"Bitter Taste" (2021) > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFj0qmBMBa4

For those that don't know... this song is him recalling the Hollywood motor-cycle accident the very day after he finished recording "Charmed Life" in Feb. 1990.

That accident, was him running a stop sign (with no helmet on) and it could have killed him, and he was very close to losing his leg.

There is something about that entire EP that I dig, though it isn't typical Idol. Rita Hayworth, Bitter Taste, U Don't Have To Kiss Me Like That... it's a different vibe.

Good song and he still sounds great. I'll be buying the album.

It is a full length album not an EP.

I love they used the late 80's MTV Fonts on bottom left!
Nice detail
