A Retro Moment
Billy Idol
yeah…sad and lonely and blue.
yeah…getting over you.

~favorite idol~sweet sixteen~

(note from MC – 1/25/17)
replaced the original MP3 file
with the above “youtube” music file .
in 2001 “youtube” was not around
“youtube” was launched on February 14, 2005
when three former PayPal employees started it for
users to upload, share and view videos.
A remarkable resource.

Billy Idol in Rolling Stone 440, 1985

laugh if you want to but in 1985
this was some hot shite…
almost naked guy in a leather thong
tats, spikes, crosses, sneer, badass

i bought tickets. 4 tickets. rebel yell.

i have faith in billy that he won’t have to look at cue cards
because he can’t remember the words to his songs
the way Rod Stewart did the last time i saw him…
(and that was 10 years ago) :0~no

(yes i was only 8 years old when i started liking bad punk guys…:)

SEX
(yes i know i’m nice:)
(grrrrrrrrrr)

triple
dedicated to the confused

just one thought to drive me into anxious love
tripping on my words and fallen doves
she wonders if angels really bleed
while I sit and wait and watch through dastardly deeds
caught my lust on the fringes of this paper
nothing I say or do is enough to shake her
travelling down this crystalline river
all I once had amounted to the confusion I give her
closed my eyes to shut out the madness that wakes me
living through anxiety on a cloud that takes me
they abandoned me for regrets and conversation
not knowing that what hides in my pockets is jubilation
that almost made me smile.
