Yep good music. They don't have "Christmas is the time to say I love you BY BILLY on Itunes. Itunes has other people singing it. Nobody else can sing Billy Squir's music. Awesome!
@TruthAxe ROFL.....seriously, you're a idiot. How can a female liking a dude be a fag?? Sooo, you're in the closet AND stupid....poor little Axey. Awe.
i use to go with this guy that was deaf and he would listen to this song.he use to try and get me to touch his private parts but i never would and he use to get mad
Once in my Chevy Id put IN THE DARK in the tape deck under the dash (!!!!) and the chick never stood a chance. Liking Billy Squier then was like being an Aerosmith fan... you were beyond cool, you were arctic! I just got Tale of the Tape in MP3... how times have changed.
Hey 999marydoll, my Focus does the same thing, pretty cool huh? And Billy Squire ROCKS. Was dating my wonderful wife when this song came out. Rock on Billy!!!!!!
saw him in concert. got my hair lit on fire by some lunatic behind me because i wouldnt sit down. who could when he was on stage? one fine, sexy dude he was.
that girl is .My kinda lover. i tell her .Don't say you love me. i know .Eveybody wants you. but you can .Rock me tonite. especially .In the dark. .All night long.
@TheFootballgirly what do you mean? this was on Jack this morning, I listened to it on my way to school and rocked out to it like you've never seen. and i'm 17
@TheFootballgirly Well one thing in kid's favor today is almost all the current artists of today are almost as big fucking pricks as Billy Squier was in his day.
hey @haszard4 amen you are so right I cant even listen to radio anymore what cd's I buy are from 80's bands that are still around and fyi nightranger has a new one somewhere in california it kicks ass classic hardrock style
I heard this driving home from work this afternoon and realized it was doing 62 in a 40...my Focus has this thing where the faster I drive the louder the music...LOVE THAT and made it home is six minutes! Fastest time ever!
@quesi600 Soccer mom with a minivan...lol I was 12 in 1984.. any by the time I was 18, starting my family, I had my Billy Squire on Vinyl, and a Chevy Blazer.. Got my now 20 year old into this early...on. In fact.. she stole my vinyl years ago.. I miss my BILLY!
@quesi600 , I saw him in the Astrodome with The Who (Their farewell tour :( ) in 82 I think. I'm 43 too and I feel sorry for my two sons, in their 20's. Even they know that music isn't what it used to be. They mostly listen to our old stuff. It's a shame that capitalism has destroyed music. Billy Squier was/is underrated in my opinion.
27 people need to have the shit kicked outta them. You don't like Billy Squire, you don't like music ! Go listen to that Lady GOO GOO shit then. bitches............
42 now remember when MTV actually played music! No f'ing cell phones, texting etc. We would all meet at certain points when we where out cruising [gas was.75 a gallon] If you missed the pick up point you were SOL. When we left the house we were FREE no phones or parents checking up. Lots of fun, freedom & F-ing [and booze!] Could'nt wait to grow up, was I stupid? Being grown up & responsible is overrated. It was a good run!
So many of you major fans, are doing one thing wrong- spelling his name wrong! Its SQUIER not SQUIRE! Lol, thats has been a pet peeve of mine ever since I was in the Billy Squier Fan club in the early 80's ...& his package I remember staring at too! video, but the mid 80"s hair bands were ok, but not much talent, but the only thing put there at the time! Def Leppard, now thats talent.90's alternative grunge & 90's music rocked....2000 & up has sucked, moslty audio mixed frigin Chris Brown shit!
@quesi600 funny we had our first 80's day at my school everything was eighties and it was awesome i love 80's 70' and 90's music way better than music now
I love Billy Squire! That's when men wore pants that fit! lol Back then you didn't question what you were getting. lol not to mention Rock was good! Concerts were outstanding! and the fun never ended.....
My husband hates this song! He is truly an 80's child ('74), I was born in '81 and love this song. So everytime it comes up on my MP3, I sing it for him, "my kinda lovereeerrreerrrr!!!!!!" I love this song!!!!!!!!!!!
@quesi600 well the 60s were just as good! but i guess you weren't there. i always thought of the 80s as a modern 60s, same great music, just a different day! :) don henley "boys of summer" sent me. where have you been?
I'm not from the 80s but I do agree that some of the best music of all time came from the '80s(and '70s. Some good stuff in the '60s as well). The music of the '90s had a very scarce population of good songs(from all the 90s songs I've heard). Maybe there was a lot of good stuff from the 90s that I just missed, I don't know. I was only around for the last half of it and even then I remember nothing of it. Sometimes, when listening to 80s music, I wonder what it'd be like if I lived in the 80s
@traeus you were only around for the last half and you don't remember it?? wow, i'd like to know what drugs you were on!! ok, just kidding i know, you were just born. i actually think i was listening to 80s music in the 90s. not sure, but i listened to mostly depeche mode, korgies, oh i know, i was listening to all the electronica stuff. chemical bros., BT, banco di guhia, prodagy, etc.
@traeus oh, ozzy, the MASTER! i like it all, but i like "planet caravan" off black sabboth's 2nd album. i just got the lyrics to that song just last week! and i havent heard "shot in the dark" in a long time, thanks for reminding me! you will like robyn trower, and sweet. oh and rush of course.
@quesi600 I agree so much with this comment.. I am a couple years older, I am 45, but I also wish my kids could have enjoyed the 80's, they were all born in the 80's but do not enjoy the era the way I do..
I agree with most of everything that everyone has posted. I am a musician and work in the 'biz" still after 30 odd years!! Billy was an amazing artist. It was ahuge bummer when he stopped putting out "records".. My son (2-) and all his buddy's always tell me that "our" generation ruined it for them in the sense of having fun. And when you think of what ALL of us got away with back then?? LMAO! We'd still be in jail by todays standards! Crank it up to 11 and ROCK THE HELL OUT!! Peace everyone...
I am the great fan of 60s,70s and 80s .. the songs from those periods are amazing..they are evergreen !!! I still listen to only those songs and this is one of the best !! Thanks.
I love this song! Makes me feel like a little kid again. Lol My husband is younger than me and he is a musician. He was like "Who is Billy Squier?" LMAO
I was born in 1985. However I don't listen to much that was made after 1986, I am very much a 70's and 80's child, even though I didn't really grow up in it. Its not when you were born that defines what kind of kid you were but what you were born into.
Love this! I graduated in 83 and I really feel sorry for these kids today - not really knowing what rock n roll is. I uses to crank Billy Squier at my friends house and one day his mom walks in and says "so you like Billy?" "Funny" she said i used to date him. I said bummer, you could have gotten us some good tickets. Billy was an icon of the 80's music. Thanks for the vid!!
Billy ROCKED back in the 80's. Seen him in 82 when i was 9 he opened for Queen, was my birthday gift from my parents. The show was August 5th birthday was the 6th so was technically 10 was a great show
@quesi600 I know the 80s had ALOT of talent and also the shameful artists that always plague the eras...and yeah i agree with nowadays rock music not being nowhere near good as classics....but there are alot of modern bands that are exceptions...
I know! It's almost as if no one has a heart, or mind these days. Music today lacks emotion...You ever notice, that most stuff now, like rock & such, is all about the negative..No one sings about the good anymore, I stick the classics such as this fly fella here, especially when I need an upper. Life is depressing enough, don't want my music to bring me down too.
Ugh! I love this song! It's been my obsession for the last 6 months. Makes me feel all good & stuff. This guy is amazing. I think he should have gotten a lil more attention than he was given, his music was awesome, and still is. Keeps me moving :)
Billy was born in Wellesley. Massachussetts, near Boston. That Bostonian accent can sometimes sound a little foreign, much like our Texas accents! One of his biggest influences was Eric Clapton
I didn't really know who he was back in '82 but my teacher use to put on rock shows every year and he wanted me to do this and I fought him every step of the way but then the more I listen to the music the more I got into. So Ty Mr.Brown for teachin me to really listen to the music cause now I enjoy so many different types of music,
I liked his music but never saw him on stage before. Like his singing chops, but hate his stage routine. Looks like he went to Mick Jagger school of Lead Singing.
@AuschwitzKidd Every girl wanted him, and every guy(well, me anyways) wanted to be him. I remember this tune playing on the radio driving down the road in my '70 Pontiac Bonneville. Music back then was great. It all meant something to us. The music nowadays, can't touch this.
@karm009 That's so gnarly! I wish, that when I get old, I'll have memories like that...but, sadly, I won't...99.9 % of the bands I listen to are now either too old or too washed out to perform. It's a shame. Auto-tune is the biggest rip off that's ever come to the music industry.
i love you BILLY i remember going to my 1st concert and you where it!!! i was ur youngest fan and you stopped to hand me a pick i got a pick from the bass player also my sis got a drum stick to and we got to meet u;)
@kimdefleppardfan The only problem with that is, you would be in your 40s now. Mortgage, minivan and a Teen of your own. Enjoy being young, even if your music sucks.
Kids have the potential to hear and know this kind of music if their parents introduce it to them. :)

@quesi600 I know the 80s had ALOT of talent and also the shameful artists that always plague the eras...and yeah i agree with nowadays rock music not being nowhere near good as classics....but there are alot of modern bands that are exceptions...

Yeah, aside from the occasional hit from groups like Arcade Fire, most of today's music is terrible.

I know! It's almost as if no one has a heart, or mind these days. Music today lacks emotion...You ever notice, that most stuff now, like rock & such, is all about the negative..No one sings about the good anymore, I stick the classics such as this fly fella here, especially when I need an upper. Life is depressing enough, don't want my music to bring me down too.

Ugh! I love this song! It's been my obsession for the last 6 months. Makes me feel all good & stuff. This guy is amazing. I think he should have gotten a lil more attention than he was given, his music was awesome, and still is. Keeps me moving :)

Billy was born in Wellesley. Massachussetts, near Boston. That Bostonian accent can sometimes sound a little foreign, much like our Texas accents! One of his biggest influences was Eric Clapton

@amysgammy want to hear a accent that's foreign sounding?
Go To the deep south sometime... you'd think you're in england The only accent/drawl that sounds a little foreign to me would be from Virginia

I didn't really know who he was back in '82 but my teacher use to put on rock shows every year and he wanted me to do this and I fought him every step of the way but then the more I listen to the music the more I got into. So Ty Mr.Brown for teachin me to really listen to the music cause now I enjoy so many different types of music,

I liked his music but never saw him on stage before. Like his singing chops, but hate his stage routine. Looks like he went to Mick Jagger school of Lead Singing.
abergethirty 11 months ago
@abergethirty No,I'd be more inclined to say that went to the Robert Plant School of Lead Vocals
And the Paul Rodgers school of Rock Persona

@AuschwitzKidd Every girl wanted him, and every guy(well, me anyways) wanted to be him. I remember this tune playing on the radio driving down the road in my '70 Pontiac Bonneville. Music back then was great. It all meant something to us. The music nowadays, can't touch this.

@karm009 That's so gnarly! I wish, that when I get old, I'll have memories like that...but, sadly, I won't...99.9 % of the bands I listen to are now either too old or too washed out to perform. It's a shame. Auto-tune is the biggest rip off that's ever come to the music industry.
