This is...something I'm surprised I like!

Most of my music collection is big band swing- I love Frank, Bing, Ella, Deano.- if I had a baby girl I wanted to call her Billie. But not after this Billy!

However after catching myself humming 'White Wedding' for the umpteenth time I went out and got myself a Billy Idol Greatest Hits. Lovely smooth, warm tone, like the matinee idols of old. Bit like Deano really, don't you think? or perhaps it's just me...

Thanks Angela for the This Is meme, and Earl and Cookie for this week's fun theme!

Gosh, I had the same thought, too, recently crooning along to White Wedding! Love those Swing charmers... Billy is so NOT a charmer! But he can sing alright.

man o man i understand, there is just something about his shameless front that gets you hooked. I'd like to join in the give away if thats ok, i'm in melbournes eastern suburbs. You could call me a fringe dweller, i think thats a fair call. I'm liking the vegie garden good thinking
