On April 25, legendary singer/rock and roll icon Billy Idol will unleash a new studio album titled Dream Into It.
The record - Idol's ninth full-length to date and first in more than 10 years - was produced by Tommy English and features guest appearances from JOAN JETT and Alison Mosshart (of the Kills), in addition to being the latest set of music from Idol and longtime collaborator/guitarist Steve Stevens.
Here's a music video for its lead single, "Still Dancing," which was shared on Wednesday:
Said Billy Idol of the song, in a statement:
"'Still Dancing' is really a reflection of my whole journey. From the punk rock period through to now. And I'm still looking towards the future, still living the life I set out to live.
"At the start of the song I'm recalling the early times in London, when I was living in squats or at friends' apartments, all my belongings in a plastic bag. Everybody at home or work told you what you were doing was never going to happen. But punk rock gave me an opening. I was surrounded by people who loved the music as deeply as I did and you were going to throw caution to the wind, believe in what you were doing and grab on for dear life.
"As the song says, there have been many moments along the way where I've been self-destructive. But what's seen me through is that unflinching belief in the music that started all those years ago. That's been the greatest gift of all."
