Awesome!
I grew up in the 80's listening to Billy on my mom's record player and now am still listening to him on my MP3. I got this because it has most of his best songs- although I am not crazy about Shock to the System. I also don't understand why some of his other soulful works are not included on any "greatest hits" albums. I would have liked for "Prodigal Blues" and "The Loveless"(Charmed Life) and "Worlds Forgotten Boy" (Whiplash Smile) to have been included here. Even so, it remains a must have for any Idol fan. Other great Billy albums are Charmed Life and Whiplash Smile as well as his latest, Devils Playground. Idolize Yourself (another hits compilation) will be released later this month with 2 new songs. Billy Idol remains "the man" of punk and rock. He is still rocking in his 50's and gorgeous as ever. I would highly recommend this CD. One word of caution: the live version of Rebel Yell does contain some audible expletives, not to be played in front of children. I'm glad my 5 year old wasn't in the room when I first heard it.

Blast from the past
Good songs like you remember them if you are an Idol fan. "Rebel Yell"
always a favorite! The only down side I've never been a favorite of live
recordings on CD's tapes etc. They always sound bad. I'm paying to hear
good quality music. The live recording is what you expect. Can't carry a
tune in a bucket haha other than that the rest of the songs are good. -1
for the live recording.

Don't forget about Billy Idol!
I can honestly say I forgot how much I enjoyed Billy Idol's music. Maybe I'm just old but the originals on the CD make me get up and dance. Not too keen on the covers at the end of the CD but you gotta love his voice and the beat.

Billy is Truly an Idol
Despite posing like a bad boy (whether he is or was really one, we don't know for sure), Billy Idol is a good singer and always had good intentions. His collection of tunes is one of the landmarks of the 80s, when music used to be more interesting in general than it is nowadays (with some exceptions, of course).

This 2001 compilation of "Greatest Hits" reunites not necessarily his best, but at least his best known songs. Classics such as "Mony Mony", "Rebel Yell" and "Cradle of Rock", as well as the ballads "Flash for Fantasy", "Eyes Without a Face" and "Sweet Sixteen" are here with 10 other tracks, including a nice Simple Minds cover of "Don't You (Forget About Me)", another classic of that decade.

All tracks are 24-bit digitally remastered for the very delight of every Pop Rock fan of the 80s.

NO DELIVERY
Very dissapointed as I have not received my shipment. Nor am I able to track it on this website as it does not tell me with which company the CD was shipped.

So the fact that I have not recieved this shipment means I can's comment on teh product
