Earlier this week, Foreigner announced that frontman Kelly Hanson would not be joining their band on their October tour of Canada, and now a new chapter has been added to what’s rapidly becoming something of a rock’n’roll soap opera.

Hansen has announced that he won’t be joining the band as they play Mexico and South America next month, where vocal chores will be undertaken by rhythm guitarist Luis Maldonado with guest appearances by original singer Lou Gramm.

“Some issues have forced me to limit appearances outside of the USA this year, and this means, unfortunately, I will miss Foreigner’s South American run,” says Gramm. “However, our incredible bandmate Luis Maldonado has been recording some of our hits in Spanish and he will be handling most of the vocals along with Lou Gramm who will be guesting with Foreigner for those shows. I know they will smash it!”

To confuse matters further, Foreigner will be fronted by Broadway singer and actor Geordie Brown on the Canadian dates. Brown is an actor and singer from Nova Scotia who took the lead role in the Juke Box Hero, The Musical when it premiered at the Ed Mirvish Theatre in Toronto, Ontario, in 2019.

Brown also performed with Foreigner in 2020, when he was invited onstage by Hansen at the climax of an Ice Cold Ice tour show in Halifax, NS, and took the lead for a performance of the classic single Hot Blooded.

Hansen joined Foreigner for the recently completed North American leg of their Historic Farewell Tour, meaning that by October, the band will have been fronted by four different singers this year: Hansen, Maldonado, Gramm and Brown. Full dates below.

Complete List Of Highly Suspect Songs From A to Z

Complete List Of Highly Suspect Songs From A to Z

Highly Suspect originated in the Cape Cod region of Massachusetts, where the trio of Johnny Stevens and twin brothers Rich and Ryan Meyer began performing in local bars in 2009. They were still teenagers when they started, playing covers of acts like Sublime, Jimi Hendrix, and Pink Floyd at venues such as the British Beer Company and Sundancers. Each member attended Dennis-Yarmouth Regional High School, where their musical chemistry was first solidified. But what started as a weekend bar cover band quickly evolved into something with more urgency and ambition. The band made a pivotal move to Brooklyn, New York, in the early 2010s, where they recorded The Worst Humans EP with producer Joel Hamilton, marking their first serious foray into original music production.

Between 2009 and 2013, Highly Suspect released a series of independently produced EPs, including First Offense, The Gang Lion EP, The Worst Humans, and Black Ocean. These early recordings showcased their evolving songwriting voice, with tracks like “Lydia” and “Guess What” beginning to gain traction among underground rock audiences. The band also released a self-titled compilation album in 2011 that compiled several of these early tracks. During this time, they toured with major rock acts including Deftones, Chevelle, Halestorm, and Scott Weiland, building a reputation for their explosive live shows. The momentum culminated in their debut full-length studio album, Mister Asylum, released on July 17, 2015, on 300 Entertainment.

Mister Asylum earned the band two Grammy nominations: Best Rock Album and Best Rock Song for “Lydia.” The album introduced the band’s signature blend of raw emotion, grunge-edged guitars, and unapologetic vulnerability. The success of the debut set the stage for a major breakthrough with their second album, The Boy Who Died Wolf, released on November 18, 2016. This record included the track “My Name Is Human,” which soared to the number one position on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs chart and stayed there for eight weeks. The song also earned a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Song. Another track, “Little One,” became a fan favorite and climbed to number two on the same chart.

Their third studio effort, MCID, arrived in 2019 and revealed a band unafraid to experiment beyond the boundaries of modern rock. With collaborations ranging from Young Thug to Tee Grizzley, the album spanned alternative, hip-hop, and pop influences while maintaining the emotional core that had defined their earlier work. The track “16” became another number-one single on the Billboard Rock Chart and stayed at the top for three weeks. The album title, an acronym for “My Crew Is Dope,” emphasized the tight-knit creative community that surrounds Highly Suspect.

In 2022, Highly Suspect followed with their fourth studio album, The Midnight Demon Club, an emotionally charged record that balanced heavy themes with moments of shimmering introspection. Singles like “Natural Born Killer” and “Pink Lullabye” captured both the raw aggression and melodic precision that had become hallmarks of their sound. By the time they released their fifth studio album, As Above, So Below, on July 19, 2024, the band had firmly cemented their place in contemporary rock, consistently evolving while maintaining a strong connection to their roots.

Their musical style defies strict categorization, fusing elements of hard rock, alternative, grunge, blues, and garage rock. This genre-fluid approach has helped them cultivate a broad fanbase while also earning respect within critical circles. Their ability to write deeply personal lyrics—often drawing from themes of trauma, addiction, heartbreak, and self-doubt—has made their songs resonate on an intensely human level. Tracks like “Lydia,” “Little One,” and “16” don’t just aim for radio play—they dig into the listener’s psyche.

Watch Ed Sheeran cover Chappell Roan’s Pink Pony Club on the New York subway while disguised as an emo busker

Commuters on New York’s subway system were treated to a special performance, yesterday, March 26, by an in-disguise Ed Sheeran, dressed as an emo busker, performing Chappell Roan’s hit single Pink Pony Club.

The performance was arranged by US talk show host Jimmy Fallon – cosplaying here as 2008 Pete Wentz, possibly – who has some form in this area, having persuaded a heavily-disguised Green Day to perform Bad Company‘s Feel Like Making Love on the subway last January.

Sheeran also performed Azizam, his new single from his forthcoming album Play, during his performance. Azizam is Farsi for ‘My Dear’.

The singer/songwriter has been popping up in various US cities over the past few weeks, surprising fans with impromptu performances in New Orleans, Boston and Nashville.

Watch his NYC performance, filmed by and copyright of @mxddness (X) / IG @szydney, below:

According to his friend Dani Filth, Sheeran recently tried and failed to turn a Toys R Us in Ipswich into a live music venue, after the proposal was rejected by the city council.

“I don’t understand Ipswich Borough Council at all, because my acquaintance / friend, Edward Sheeran, he told me he wanted to buy this Toys R Us,” Filth told Kerrang!

“It’s been vacant for years and years and years, and he put in an offer for it – he wanted to turn it into a music venue. Ideal. Massive car park, like, perfect. Couldn’t be more perfect. On the biggest roundabout in Suffolk, right? The noisiest. It’s as you come into Ipswich, which is just perfect.”

However, the council said the proposed venue would result in too much noise.

“And I mean, Ed Sheeran to Ipswich Borough Council is like chalk to cheese, you know?” the singer said. “They have such a relationship. You know, he’s on murals all around the town. He sponsors Ipswich Town’s football kit and stuff. And yet they still didn’t even give him a break on this. And he was buying the place! ‘I know we’re going to redevelop this place. It’s going to bring so many more people to the town.’ But no.”

Lou Gramm to Help Out as Kelly Hansen Misses More Foreigner Shows

Foreigner singer Kelly Hansen has revealed that he will not tour with the band when they perform in Latin America this spring, but a special guest will be stepping in.

“Some issues have forced me to limit appearances outside of the USA this year, and this means, unfortunately, I will miss Foreigner’s South American run,” he said in a statement (via blabbermout.net). “However, our incredible bandmate Luis Maldonado has been recording some of our hits in Spanish and he will be handling most of the vocals along with [original Foreigner singer] Lou Gramm who will be guesting with Foreigner for those shows. I know they will smash it!”

The tour is scheduled to begin on April 28 in Mexico City. It remains unclear what “issues” Hansen is currently handling in relation to his international appearances.

It was previously announced that Hansen would also not appear with the band when they perform in Canada this coming October and November. When asked about the matter, Foreigner’s publicist responded with the following: “Circumstances prohibit Kelly from spending too much time outside of the U.S., so he will be sitting this one out. Geordie [Brown] will be appearing at all shows in this tour.”

When Was the Last Time Lou Gramm Sang With Foreigner?

The last time Gramm sang with Foreigner was on March 15 when he appeared at their show in Clearwater, Florida. There he participated in two songs during the encore, “I Want to Know What Love Is” and “Hot Blooded.”

10 Best Songs That Start With The Word “All”

Feature Photo: Christian Bertrand / Shutterstock.com

From brooding confessions to triumphant anthems, this list of the 10 best songs with the word “All” in the title explores the vast emotional terrain of rock music—where each track doesn’t just share a word, but also a sense of intensity, purpose, or defiance. Radiohead’s “All I Need” opens the list with a murky, slow-burning plea for emotional connection that spirals into obsession. Free’s “All Right Now” remains one of the most celebrated riffs in classic rock history, written in the aftermath of a lifeless gig and destined for radio immortality.

Mike + The Mechanics lightened the tone with “All I Need Is a Miracle,” a sleek pop-rock hit that brought the band chart success and a Grammy nomination. Steeleye Span’s “All Around My Hat” brought British folk into the mainstream with a traditional melody transformed into a rock radio favorite. Grand Funk Railroad’s “All the Girls in the World Beware” pulsed with confident swagger and helped define the band’s mid-70s commercial run. The Everly Brothers’ “All I Have to Do Is Dream” fused longing and harmony into a timeless pop ballad that resonated across genres.

The Beatles delivered melodic urgency with “All My Loving,” a track that became one of their early transatlantic breakthroughs, bolstered by a legendary Ed Sullivan Show performance. Mott the Hoople’s “All the Young Dudes” turned a near-breakup into glam rock mythology, with David Bowie stepping in to produce the song that would become their defining statement. And closing the list is Elton John’s “All the Young Girls Love Alice,” a fearless, layered character study set to glam-infused rock, addressing themes of sexuality and social marginalization with lyrical precision and musical intensity.

Together, these ten songs reveal how one small word—“all”—can carry the weight of celebration, sorrow, romance, rebellion, and self-discovery across decades of rock history.

# 9 – All I Want To Do – Sheryl Crow

“All I Wanna Do” was recorded by Sheryl Crow for her debut album Tuesday Night Music Club, which was released on August 3, 1993. The song was produced by Bill Bottrell and recorded at Toad Hall Studio in Pasadena, California. Its writing credits include Crow, Bottrell, David Baerwald, Kevin Gilbert, and David Ricketts, who collaborated as part of the ad hoc group also known as the Tuesday Night Music Club. The lyrics were inspired by the poem “Fun” by Wyn Cooper, whose words were adapted to fit the song’s breezy, talk-sung structure. Musicians featured on the track included Crow on vocals, Gilbert on bass and programming, Bottrell on guitar and drum programming, and Baerwald on additional guitar and vocals.

Released as a single in April 1994, “All I Wanna Do” became Crow’s breakthrough hit, reaching number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and topping the charts in Australia and Canada. It later won the Grammy Award for Record of the Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 1995 ceremony. The track’s laid-back groove, combined with its observational lyrics about barroom conversations in Los Angeles, offered a sharp contrast to the grunge-dominated rock scene of the early 1990s. Crow’s delivery—nonchalant yet precise—turned the song into an anthem of detached cool, with lyrics like “This ain’t no disco / And it ain’t no country club either / This is L.A.” helping define its cultural footprint. The song’s accompanying music video, directed by David Hogan, further amplified Crow’s profile through heavy rotation on MTV and VH1.

# 8 – All Right Now – Free

“All Right Now” captured the moment when Free shifted from a hard-touring British rock band into mainstream visibility. The track was recorded in January 1970 at Trident and Island Studios in London, with production handled by the band themselves—Paul Rodgers on vocals, Paul Kossoff on guitar, Andy Fraser on bass and piano, and Simon Kirke on drums. The inspiration behind the song came after a particularly dismal gig at Durham University, where the band realized they needed a high-energy anthem to lift their live sets. Fraser and Rodgers responded by writing “All Right Now” in just minutes, building it around a driving guitar riff and an unforgettable chorus.

Released on May 15, 1970 as the lead single from the album Fire and Water, “All Right Now” was an immediate success. It climbed to number two on the UK Singles Chart and number four on the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S., ultimately becoming Free’s signature song. Its classic opening riff and energetic pacing helped the band cross into international recognition. The song became one of the most played rock tracks of its era, and in 1990, it was honored by ASCAP for achieving over one million radio plays in the United States alone.

Live performances of “All Right Now” helped secure Free’s legacy as a dynamic live act. The song became a centerpiece of their 1970 Isle of Wight Festival appearance, played to an audience estimated at over 600,000. It would continue to be a staple in Paul Rodgers’ later live work, including during his tenure with Bad Company and as a solo artist. Kossoff’s guitar work, especially, gained recognition for its tight rhythm and melodic soloing—elements that have made the track a case study in rock guitar simplicity and impact.

Beyond Free, “All Right Now” found new life in numerous covers and adaptations. Rod Stewart and Mike Oldfield each recorded versions, and the Stanford University marching band adopted it as their unofficial fight song. Its placement in films, commercials, and sporting events has only deepened its cultural reach. Despite the band’s relatively brief initial run, the song endures as one of rock’s most recognizable and widely licensed tracks.

# 7 – All I Need Is A Miracle – Mike & The Mechanics

“All I Need Is a Miracle” was recorded by Mike + The Mechanics in 1985 and released as a single in March 1986 in the United States and on April 28, 1986, in the United Kingdom. It appeared on their self-titled debut album Mike + The Mechanics. Written by Mike Rutherford and producer Christopher Neil, the track featured vocals from Paul Young of Sad Café and was produced by Neil. Other musicians included Paul Carrack on backing vocals and bass in the music video, Adrian Lee on keyboards, and Peter Van Hooke on drums. The recording leaned toward a polished blend of pop rock and soft rock, clocking in at 4 minutes and 12 seconds.

The single marked a commercial breakthrough for the band, reaching No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and climbing into the Top 10 in Canada and Australia. The upbeat tone of the song was a deliberate shift from the band’s typically more introspective material. Rutherford remarked that it stood apart for its positivity, which was a rarity in his writing at the time. The song earned a nomination for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group at the 1987 Grammy Awards. Its accompanying music video, which linked narratively with the band’s earlier single “Silent Running,” offered a humorous and cinematic take on the song’s title, further boosting its visibility on MTV and other music channels. The track was later re-recorded for their Hits compilation album in 1996.

# 3 – All My Loving – The Beatles

The Beatles recorded “All My Loving” on July 30, 1963, during a full-day session at EMI Studios in London, with George Martin producing. It was tracked in 11 takes, with the group focused on capturing a clean vocal take from Paul McCartney, who wrote the lyrics before composing the melody—a reversal of his usual process. Paul handled the lead vocal and played bass, while John Lennon performed a propulsive triplet rhythm guitar part, George Harrison contributed backing vocals and played a country-influenced lead guitar solo, and Ringo Starr played drums. The completed track was selected for the band’s second UK album, With the Beatles, released on November 22, 1963.

“All My Loving” was never released as a single in the United Kingdom, but its popularity helped establish The Beatles’ early momentum. In Canada, it was issued as a single and became a hit, prompting its release in the United States on Meet the Beatles! in early 1964. The song also gained massive exposure when The Beatles opened their first performance on The Ed Sullivan Show with it on February 9, 1964. That performance introduced the song—and the band—to over 70 million American viewers. Lyrically, McCartney’s message of devotion to a long-distance partner struck a chord with fans, reflecting a sincere optimism that contrasted with the band’s later, more introspective work.

The arrangement itself was deceptively simple, but technically sharp. Lennon’s driving rhythm guitar evokes early American rock and roll influences, while Harrison’s solo pays tribute to Chet Atkins with its rockabilly flair. McCartney’s vocal delivery is smooth yet urgent, reinforcing the theme of fidelity and longing. Though not officially released as a UK single, the song was considered by some to be single-worthy and remains a concert staple and fan favorite.

“All My Loving” serves as an early indication of McCartney’s melodic instincts and the band’s evolving maturity as songwriters. While it doesn’t share the psychological complexity of later Beatles songs, it helped solidify their formula for success: emotionally accessible lyrics, vocal harmony, and pop production that elevated their reputation beyond the confines of Beatlemania.

# 2 – All The Young Dudes – Mott The Hoople

Mott the Hoople were on the verge of disbanding in 1972 when David Bowie offered them a lifeline in the form of a song that would become one of glam rock’s defining anthems. “All the Young Dudes” was recorded on May 14, 1972, at Olympic Studios in London, with Bowie producing the session. The track featured Ian Hunter on lead vocals, Mick Ralphs on lead guitar, Pete Overend Watts on bass, Dale Griffin on drums, and Verden Allen on organ. Additional contributions included handclaps from Nicky Graham and the band’s bodyguard, Stuey George.

Released as a single on July 28, 1972, “All the Young Dudes” reached No. 3 on the UK Singles Chart and broke into the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 at No. 37. Its success marked a turning point in Mott the Hoople’s career, transforming them from cult favorites into glam rock standard-bearers. The lyrics referenced a generation steeped in pop culture and disillusionment, namechecking “the television man,” “the Beatles and the Rolling Stones,” and other touchstones of youth identity. Bowie later clarified that the song was not meant to be celebratory—it was intended as a warning of societal collapse, delivered through the lens of alienated youth.

The single’s success led to the release of the full-length All the Young Dudes album, also produced by Bowie and released later that year. The album further solidified the band’s commercial appeal, while the title track remained the centerpiece. Though Mott the Hoople had released four albums prior to this point, “All the Young Dudes” gave them their first lasting hit and a new sense of purpose. The song would go on to define their legacy, even as their subsequent albums explored a variety of directions within rock.

The song’s production captured a deliberate looseness that mirrored the lyrics’ sense of generational unrest. Bowie’s involvement extended beyond production; his backing vocals and arrangement touches helped shape the final mix into something more layered than the band’s earlier material. This collaboration showcased the power of artistic reinvention, and for Mott the Hoople, it represented a rebirth.

“All the Young Dudes” has remained a permanent fixture in the band’s history and a key example of how a single song can completely rewrite a group’s trajectory. Unlike the emotionally urgent romantic narratives found in other songs on this list such as “All I Need Is a Miracle” or the blues-driven swagger of “All Right Now,” this track served a broader cultural purpose. It became a banner for a disenchanted youth culture, giving voice to those outside the mainstream and providing a sonic symbol of resistance and identity.

The lasting influence of “All the Young Dudes” is not just in its chart position or airplay longevity—it’s in its cultural permanence. The song continues to be performed live and is consistently associated with both the band and the glam rock movement that followed it. It remains one of the most important songs Mott the Hoople ever recorded, and one of the few tracks from the early ’70s rock era that captured both its sound and its social undercurrents in equal measure.

# 1 – All The Young Girls Love Alice – Elton John

Recorded during May 1973 at Château d’Hérouville in Hérouville, France, “All the Young Girls Love Alice” appeared on Elton John’s Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, a sprawling double album that showcased the collaborative peak between John and lyricist Bernie Taupin. Gus Dudgeon produced the record, with John on piano and vocals, Davey Johnstone on guitar, Dee Murray on bass, Nigel Olsson on drums, and Del Newman providing orchestral arrangements. Though never released as a single, the song became one of the album’s most talked-about deep cuts due to its provocative lyrics and bold subject matter.

Musically, the track fused glam rock with gritty electric blues, anchored by Johnstone’s sharp guitar lines and John’s driving piano riff. But it’s Taupin’s narrative that gives the song its lasting impact. Telling the story of a 16-year-old girl navigating rejection, sexuality, and eventual tragedy, the lyrics deal candidly with themes of lesbian desire and urban isolation, placing it decades ahead of its time in terms of LGBTQ representation in mainstream rock. The chorus—“All the young girls love Alice”—takes on a haunting tone by the final verse, which reveals that Alice was found dead in the subway. The contrast between the vibrant instrumentation and the dark narrative turns the song into a blistering social critique wrapped in glam aesthetics.

The track’s inclusion on Goodbye Yellow Brick Road—an album that reached No. 1 on the Billboard Top LPs & Tape chart and sold over 20 million copies worldwide—helped solidify Elton John’s reputation for pushing the envelope both musically and lyrically. While the album boasted several hits like “Bennie and the Jets” and “Candle in the Wind,” “All the Young Girls Love Alice” carved out a legacy of its own as one of John’s boldest and most thematically complex songs. Its fearless approach to taboo subjects offered a darker counterpoint to the theatrical grandeur found elsewhere on the record.

“Freddie’s ideas were off the wall and cheeky and different, and we tended to encourage them, but sometimes they were not brilliant.” Queen’s Brian May reveals one of Freddie Mercury’s grand ideas that got vetoed by the rest of the band

Queen guitarist Brian May shares his memories of his late friend and bandmate Freddie Mercury in a new interview, and reveals that not every idea that the flamboyant frontman had was golden.

“Deep down Freddie was one of the shyest people I’ve ever met,” May tells Queen biographer Mark Blake in the current issue of MOJO magazine, “but he was so full of bluster, you’d forget. Freddie would always be excited, and his excitement would take over. He’d be so full of excitement he could hard speak. “Freddie’s ideas were off the wall and cheeky and different — and we tended to encourage them. Sometimes the idea he brought in was brilliant, and sometimes not brilliant.”

As an example of one of those less-than-brilliant ideas, May recalls an alternate reality where Queen’s 1989 album The Miracle could simply have been called Good, had Mercury got his way.

“He came in one day and announced, ‘I’ve got this amazing idea. You know Michael Jackson has just put out this album called Bad? Well, listen… What do you think about us calling our next album Good?’

“We all looked at each other and said, ‘Well, maybe we should think about it, Freddie’,” the guitarist recalls. “It wasn’t one of his world-shattering ideas, but looking back, maybe we were wrong…”

In the interview, May also confesses that, during Queen’s career, he would be nervous about presenting his song ideas to his bandmates, who were all also songwriters in their own right.

“Every time I brought a new song to the boys I’d be as nervous as hell, thinking, They’re gonna say it’s rubbish, they’re gonna hate it…” he recalls. “I’d always be embarrassed and apologising. That never ever went away.”

Such nerves notwithstanding, May also reiterated that the idea of new Queen music isn’t beyond the realms of possibility.

“I think it could happen,” he tells Blake. “Both Roger [Taylor] and I are constantly writing and coming up with ideas and doing things in our studios.

“I could have the beginnings of a Queen song right there in front of me now. It’s just whether the idea reaches maturity or not. It’s whether that seed can grow.”

Gene Simmons Defends Charging Fans $12K to Be His Roadie

Did you really think Gene Simmons would back down after being publicly roasted for offering fans a $12,495 “roadie for a day” experience on his upcoming solo tour?

Well, think again. The Kiss star doubled down on the idea in a new interview, saying he was inspired by remembering his own questions while attending shows as a child.

“I was always curious, ‘What’s it like when they’re in a hotel? What’s it like when the stage is set up? What’s it like being onstage when they’re performing and seeing the audience from the stage?'” Simmons explained to the New York Post.

“I decided, ‘you know what, nobody’s ever done it. Why not open the idea to be my personal roadie for the day?'” The five-figure fee does include all of the things Simmons mentioned above – breakfast at the hotel, helping assemble the stage, accompanying Simmons on his various promotional meetings for the day, get introduced to the crowd during the concert and take home an autographed bass.

Important note: This deal does not include an actual ticket to the show, “as they are sold through the individual venues.”

“This is not for everybody and it ain’t cheap,” Simmons said of the offer in a separate interview with Buffalo’s WIVB, placing some of the blame for the high cost on the need for insurance. “It’s also a different world than what I grew up in. Nowadays, if you get a papercut… everybody gets sued.”

Although over a dozen of the shows on Simmons’ 2025 solo tour were recently postponed, up to 10 fans still have the chance to fulfill their dreams as the God of Thunder’s roadie at the shows listed below.

“For those who think they know Joel’s story, as well as those who are not as familiar, I believe this two-part film is both a revelation and a surprise,” Lacy said in a statement. “I was drawn to his story as someone who knew little at the outset, and was astounded at how autobiographical his songs are and how complex his story is. We are gratified that Bill trusted us with his story, which we have told as honestly as possible, diving into territory which has not been explored before.”

Joel, meanwhile, recently postponed his upcoming tour dates four months so he could handle an unspecified medical condition. He’s got one show booked for November and several for spring and summer 2026, with support from Stevie Nicks or Sting on select dates.

Complete List Of Billy Idol Songs From A to Z

Feature Photo: ChrisJamesRyanPhotography-Shutterstock.com

Billy Idol’s journey began in Stanmore, Middlesex, England, and later he spent formative years in Bromley, Kent. Idol, whose birth name is William Michael Albert Broad, first cut his musical teeth in the punk-rock explosion of the late 1970s as a member of the band Generation X. After several successful singles like “King Rocker” and “Dancing with Myself,” the band ultimately disbanded in 1981, setting the stage for Idol’s ambitious solo career.

Idol relocated to New York City, seeking a broader stage for his charismatic image and energetic performance style. His early solo efforts were marked by a significant collaboration with guitarist Steve Stevens, whose distinctive riffs and virtuosity complemented Idol’s snarling, rebellious vocal delivery. Idol’s self-titled debut album, Billy Idol (1982), set the tone for his career with breakout hits like “White Wedding” and “Hot in the City,” both of which established him as an MTV mainstay, thanks to their memorable music videos.

The commercial apex of Idol’s career arrived with his second studio album, Rebel Yell (1983). Powered by the electrifying title track, along with other iconic songs like “Eyes Without a Face,” “Flesh for Fantasy,” and “Catch My Fall,” Rebel Yell elevated Idol to international stardom. The album achieved double platinum status in the United States and cemented Idol’s image as an iconic rock rebel—complete with trademark platinum hair, punk-inspired attire, and unmistakable sneer.

Billy Idol’s continued momentum carried into the late 1980s with his 1986 release, Whiplash Smile, generating popular singles such as “To Be a Lover” and “Sweet Sixteen.” Idol’s compilation Vital Idol (1987) further solidified his chart dominance, particularly through its dance remix of “Mony Mony,” which soared to number one on the Billboard Hot 100. The subsequent album, Charmed Life (1990), produced yet another enduring hit with “Cradle of Love,” which peaked at number two and received extensive airplay, driven largely by its edgy and provocative music video.

Throughout his prolific career, Idol has released eight studio albums, multiple compilations, and several EPs. He has achieved three Grammy nominations, notably earning recognition in the Best Male Rock Vocal Performance category for “Rebel Yell,” “To Be a Lover,” and “Cradle of Love.” Though he has yet to win a Grammy, Idol’s iconic status and influence on rock music are undisputed. His music has repeatedly charted in the top ten worldwide, making him one of rock’s most recognizable and enduring figures.

Billy Idol is beloved in the music industry primarily for his dynamic stage presence, unapologetic attitude, and his ability to fuse punk sensibilities with pop accessibility. His blend of rebellion, sexuality, and catchy melodies allowed him to transcend genre limitations, capturing a diverse audience from punk purists to mainstream rock fans. Idol’s dedication to visual artistry—particularly his early embrace of music video culture—has secured him a lasting legacy as an influential figure during the rise of MTV and beyond.

Outside of music, Idol has pursued various creative endeavors, including acting roles and appearances in film and television. Notably, his cameo appearance in the film The Wedding Singer (1998) introduced him to new generations of fans. Idol has also authored an autobiography, Dancing with Myself, detailing his turbulent life, career struggles, and numerous triumphs, further showcasing his talents beyond music. With decades in the spotlight and an undiminished passion for performing, Billy Idol continues to exemplify the spirit of rock and roll rebellion, resonating across generations.

Complete List Of Fleetwood Mac Songs From A to Z

Complete List Of Fleetwood Mac Songs From A to Z

Feature Photo: Randy Miramontez / Shutterstock.com

Fleetwood Mac’s legendary journey began in London in 1967, when guitarist Peter Green, drummer Mick Fleetwood, and bassist John McVie united their musical visions to create a blues-rock band deeply rooted in traditional American blues. Initially named “Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac,” the group rapidly gained recognition through dynamic live performances and authentic blues sensibilities. Their early singles, notably “Black Magic Woman,” later popularized by Santana, and “Albatross,” which soared to number one in the UK charts, established them firmly in the British blues scene.

Throughout the late 1960s and early 1970s, Fleetwood Mac endured multiple lineup shifts, notably with the departure of Green and the brief presence of guitarist Bob Welch. The band’s sound evolved significantly during this period, drifting from its blues origins toward a more melodic rock style. In 1975, the addition of American musicians Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks propelled Fleetwood Mac into an unprecedented era of commercial success and creative vitality. This refreshed lineup released their self-titled album, Fleetwood Mac (1975), introducing hit singles like “Rhiannon,” “Over My Head,” and “Say You Love Me,” marking their commercial breakthrough in the United States.

The follow-up, 1977’s Rumours, became the definitive album of Fleetwood Mac’s career. Driven by intricate interpersonal relationships and emotional tensions among band members, Rumours yielded massive hits including “Go Your Own Way,” “Dreams,” “Don’t Stop,” and “The Chain.” The album dominated charts worldwide, spending 31 weeks atop the Billboard 200 in the U.S., eventually earning a Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 1978. To date, Rumours has sold over 40 million copies globally, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time.

Fleetwood Mac’s ambitious streak continued with the experimental double album Tusk (1979), notable for its bold departure from the accessible style of Rumours. Although it received mixed reviews initially, Tusk later gained critical appreciation for its artistic courage, further solidifying the band’s legacy as innovators. Subsequent albums like Mirage (1982), featuring hits such as “Hold Me” and “Gypsy,” and Tango in the Night (1987), driven by chart-toppers “Little Lies” and “Everywhere,” reinforced Fleetwood Mac’s reputation as consistent hitmakers capable of adapting to shifting musical landscapes.

In recognition of their significant cultural impact, Fleetwood Mac has garnered multiple prestigious accolades. In 1998, the core lineup—Fleetwood, McVie, Buckingham, Nicks, and Christine McVie—was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Their enduring influence also earned them a Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. Beyond awards, Fleetwood Mac’s distinctive combination of heartfelt songwriting, intricate harmonies, and relatable themes has cemented their widespread adoration among generations of listeners.

Outside of their considerable musical achievements, Fleetwood Mac’s members have often championed charitable causes and social activism. Stevie Nicks, particularly vocal about women’s rights, has supported organizations combating domestic violence and advocating for veterans. Mick Fleetwood and John McVie have engaged in various environmental and wildlife conservation initiatives, reflecting their personal passions beyond the stage.

With a discography encompassing 18 studio albums, numerous live recordings, and countless compilations, Fleetwood Mac remains an enduring symbol of creative resilience and musical innovation. Their remarkable ability to navigate internal turmoil and reinvent themselves artistically has deeply endeared them to fans worldwide. Whether through their timeless anthems, their deeply human storytelling, or their unwavering authenticity, Fleetwood Mac has secured an unrivaled legacy in popular music.
