If he would've lost the sneer and changed his name, it might've worked...

LOL, I thought is pretty cool.

I hope he's not going the Rod Stewart route, though.

I think he followed that one up with Yelling At The XMas Tree, off Devil's Playground, which I heard Avatar ghost wrote w/ Idol.

Billy wrote the chorus and Dean the verse: "Santa's balls are jingling....Mommy's hips are wiggling."

Hey,no joking. He may go the way of David Lee Roth and his new album Strummin' With The Devil. Polkas can't be far off.

NiG's below. Anyway, enjoy!

I've heard worse but damn this is to funny.
I always thought he had an Elvis tone to him.
Hubby loves Billy Idol, he will get a kick
out of this one, thanks Dave.

I don't own a single Christmas album. Not interested.

The only Christmas tunes I like are:

So This is Christmas (Lennon and Ono)
Christmas is a Time to Say I Love You (Billy Squire)
Springsteen's SCICTT
Please Come Home for Christmas (Eagles)

UGH, I never could stand Lennon and Loco's Christmas song. *shudder*.

Dude...are YOU missing out! You would LOVE Bob River's Twisted Christmas cds. Jimmy Buffett's Christmas Island is a great album as well.

Also, both the first 'Merry Axemas' and Trans-Siberian Orchesta's
'Christmas Eve and Other Stories' are good listens.

That's funny. To me, he looks like he's poking fun at himself. Seems like keeps trying to break in a huge guffaw! :D

OMFG. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Now I know...Today I will die laughing! I began early in the morning and I just don't have a chance to stop with all this stuff!
After reading the board,watching Jim Carrey's What Is Love...and now THIS! :lol:

Unbelievable.
This reminds me of my late Grandma...Something like 15 years ago,I tried to "educate" her and show her some American "action".I had a VHS with Billy Idol and I remember her sitting in front of the TV,eyes opened wide,jaw dropped,watching Billy spitting on his fingers and spreading the spit all over his face. :lol: :lol:
Omg,I can't even type a nymore...LOL...sorry. :lol: :lol:

I'm sorry,Granma.
You should've lived to see Billy now. :lol: :lol:

At least go get yourself the first TSO (Trans-Siberian Orchestra) album, "Christmas Eve and Other Stories"...or I will have to kick your ass. :wink:

Seriously, it's great stuff. If you're familiar with Savatage, it's basically the same band but with added singers and orchestral instruments, so a lot of the stuff has a hard rock edge, with guitar solos and the whole works. Their guitarist, Al Pitrelli, has a similar style to Neal, i.e. very melodic but still gritty.

I love all Christmas music! I never thought I'd see Billy singing any, though. He is one cocky som bitch!

But, I guess if you looked this good at his age you could be cocky.
