Den största missuppfattningen folk har om mig är att jag är dum.

The biggest misconception people have about me is that I'm stupid.

In 1995, I ran into a brick wall, ... I had no band anymore, and the music business was getting quite soulless. It seemed like the big record companies were mostly interested in eating each other and promoting music as product. They didn't really believe in rock and roll anymore. How was someone like me going to fit into that? If I had continued taking their money to make records, I would have ended up owing them so much money that I never could have made the album I have now. They wanted my soul in hock, and I refused to fall into their trap. I just stopped putting out records when I knew they would turn out shitty, and I waited until I found a company [Sanctuary] that really wanted a Billy Idol record. It's not just a (expletive) job! You can't go out there with people you hate and music that sucks. I suppose it was a gamble staying away so long, but it's paid off because I'm happy. I'm happy to be Billy Idol with a quality Billy Idol record. How's that for a marketing tactic?

It's a nice day to start again
It's a nice day for a white wedding
It's a nice day to start again.

Well there's nothing to lose
And there's nothing to prove
I'll be dancing with myself.

Face to face
And back to back
You see and feel
My sex attack
Sing it
Flesh, flesh for fantasy
We want
Flesh, flesh for fantasy.

But your empty eyes
Seem to pass me by
Leave me dancing with myself.

If I had the chance

I'd ask the world to dance.

I rocked the cradle of love.

I'll do anything
For my sweet sixteen,
And I'll do anything
For little run away child.

Got no human grace your eyes without a face.
Such a human waste your eyes without a face
And now it's getting worse.

We were all following in their path. I believe I'm still following in their path today.

I don't play 100% punk rock music,

I still put that into Devil's Playground. I believe there's a punk rock attitude to it. I don't think if you put it on you'd necessarily go, 'That's punk rock,' but I've never lost the punk rock attitude.

I think people can see that if anything I kept the alternative thing in MTV, ... If they hadn't had me it would have been just Madonna and big-hair bands. It was a great combination of punk and rock, and I've gone on to do that today.
