If you examine Idol's success on the Billboard Hot 100 chart (so named and based on radio play at the time) during the 80's, you might be in for a surprise. "Eyes Without A Face" charted higher than most of his other songs. Billy Idol only had one single that did better: it was his only 1 hit in the U.S., and it was actually a re-recording of an earlier release. What was the song?
Bonus Question: Billy Idol wasn't born with that name, and the story goes that he got the idea from a report card comment from a teacher that read "William is Idol." What's Billy Idol's real name?
