With a rebel yell..she cries "I wanna see Billy Idol."

So, Isaac has been waaaaaay into the song "Dancing With Myself" by our dear friend Billy Idol. This obsession began with the opening scene of the movie "Flushed Away" and ever since, Isaac has been the song's number one fan (and I can't blame him).

Needless to say, we listen to the song and/or watch the video 20 times a day, and tonight was no exception. While watching the video for the second time, we had the following conversation:

Isaac: Where does Billy Idol live?
Me: London, I think.
Isaac: I wanna go visit him. AND I wanna see Billy Idol.
Me: Well, he lives pretty far away.
Isaac: But I wanna go meet Billy Idol and hear the song. Can we go there in 4 days, please??? I really wanna go to Billy Idol's house. I really wanna go see him and talk to him about questions.
Me (with brain on the floor): OK. We'll see. OK?

Seriously, he never ceases to amaze me. He clearly knows what he wants, and that is an elderly man with bleach-blond hair who is willing to answer questions and sing some songs. Not too much to ask, I don't think.

Currently blasting: Billy Idol-"Dancing With Myself"

  1. I'll never forget him dancing along with that mouse each time we'd watch that movie. Almost perfect step, too -- even the bit where he grabs his leg like a guitar.

    What a great little man.

    Glad you started this blog.
