Radio with Pictures - Billy Idol

Hate Reagan ... hate politics, but don't hate ordinary people just because of their nationality, their colour, their race or their creed. It's a waste of time. Punk rock was about getting rid of all that, it wanted to stop all that rock star nonsense, nonsense which our world don't need any more.

– Billy Idol, on negative attitudes to the United States

It's great watching young kids excited about rock'n'roll again. That's why I think that album's worth paying the money for - because I think it's got the spirit of rock'n'roll.

I'm not into show business; I'm into rock'n'roll.
