POV: you’re a rat and your owner recently left you alone for a week

Finally a song about being alone that isn't also about being lonely!!!

I love how it shows that maybe being alone could be a nice thing for you

Cool AF! I was dancing with myself when Billy gave us this song. Today, at 61, I am still dancing with myself. Wouldn't have it any other way.

Only my true 2000's legends know this song from flushed away.

If this doesn’t play at my funeral then I’m not coming.

The Elvis of Punk!!! I grew up through the 80’s. So many fond childhood memories from his music. Most underrated rock star and guitar hero ever.

2024 let’s go ! This Masterpiece will never get old 🕺🏼🕺🏼

*prom day comes* friend: who are you going to go with? me:

Safe to say “Flushed away” introduced me to this song.

Any Billy Idol fans in 2024?

I was just a kid when he was at the height of his fame. My parents didn't want us to be 'rebellious' and didn't wants us to listen to him. lol And now I listen to his music and I always smile. The 80's were time like no other, definitely one of the greatest decades in music. He is included.

Guardians of the galaxy: I’m the best movie that features 70’s and 80’s music Flushed away: Hold my music

I got to see him perform this live last Saturday, September 4. I have loved this song since I was 16. I can now rest in peace.

Ojalá esta generación se siga nutriendo de la energía de los 80's como este temazo 🤘 no dejemos que el rock muera

Because Billy is always goofing around, people don't really take him seriously. But the man is an excellent musician, everything is exactly to the point and rehearsed down to the smallest detail

My husband goes crazy when he hears these song's,says nobody rocked the world like the 80's. He's 50 and looks like a teen dancing to this song

There are certain 80's songs that give me an overwhelmingly painful and bittersweet sense of nostalgia. This is definitely one of them.

I heard this song in flushed away

It SUCKS TO BE YOU, if you missed the 80's!🥳🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

The 70's, 80's and 90's had some of the best music ever created.

Billy Idol: the Elvis Presley of punk.

God if we could only go back..... This is when life was LIFE❤

'With the music selection and the mirror flection........' priceless !!

I love how happy he is dancing with himself

I remember this song in this movie called "Flushed Away". Ever since that movie came out, I wouldn't stop listening to this song. It fits my personality, very catchy, and very nostalgic! Thank you, Billy Idol, for making this masterpiece! :)

I used to dance with my oldest niece to this song. She'll be 11 this September and almost as tall as I am. I remember the summer nights of her bouncing on my hip as we rocked out this song. I hope she never stops dancing with her auntie. 💜

Only true 80’s fans will remember this song being played in the movie ‘Can’t Buy Me Love’ w/Patrick Dempsey and Amanda Peterson ❤❤❤

On the floors of Tokyo A-down in London town's a go go A-with the record selection, And the mirror's reflection, I'm a dancin' with myself A-when there's no one else in sight, A-in crowded lonely night Well, I wait so long for my love vibration And I'm dancing with myself Oh oh, Dancing with a-myself, Oh, oh, dancing with myself Well, there's nothing to lose And there's nothing to prove, well, Dancing a-with myself If I looked all over the world And there's every type of girl But your empty eyes seem to pass me by And leave me dancin' with myself. So let's sink another drink Cause it'll give me time to think If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance And I'll be dancin' with myself Oh oh, Dancing with a-myself, Oh, oh, dancing with myself Well, there's nothing to lose And there's nothing to prove, well, Dancing a-with myself Well if I looked all over the world And there's every type of girl But your empty eyes seem to pass me by And leave me dancin' with myself. So let's sink another drink Cause it'll give me time to think If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance And I'll be dancin' with myself Oh oh, Dancing a-with myself, Oh, oh, dancing with myself If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance Oh, oh, oh, oh oh Oh, oh, oh dancin' with myself. Oh, oh, dancin' with myself, oh, oh, Sweat, sweat, etc.

i'm still dancing with myself

0:13 Roddy St. James: Hey, what are you all standing around for? We got a big day planned!! Let’s go, people!! Chop, chop!!!!

I'm 13 years old and I just love this song

Billy’s voice is a diamond.... despite being a punk rocker since the Generation X, his vocals are the best among other pop or rock singers... As for his songs, he has written some great diamonds that are left in music history

Valentines day guys, you know what we're gonna do.

This song deserves a billion views !!

What a maverick of an artist... totally underrated...but the best always are

Finally, a song that captures every relationship I have!

Heyyy, I'm going to dance to this song on Valentine's Day! :)

This song will always be in my heart as a 80s song please don't let this song die

I had such a crush on this guy

Absolute banger and a classic. Makes me dance every time. God bless the 80's.

I’m 64 and still dancing with myself.I was told Billy was born in 1955,the same as me,and his birthday is coming up on November 30th.So Happy 64th Birthday Billy Idol,and thanks for the great music!

80's is the best decade of music forever. 80's is the best decade of music forever. Flushed Away was a great movie.

2024 still listening

I LOVE YOU BILLY!😍

1983 - this song is awesome! 2019 - this song is awesome!

Is it possible to listen to this song fully without moving?

This is a song from Flushed Away

My dad didn't know who this guy was when he met him. My dad told me he smoked some weed with Billy Idol in a bathroom, when he was younger. My dad didn't know him until people rushed into the bathroom to meet Billy, my dad ditched because he didn't like all the people, but still my dad smoked a blunt with Billy Idol. My dad ditched mainly because he had didn’t like to be around groups of people.

“See Billy Idol gets it, why doesn’t anyone else?” - Adam Sandler

My father was a professional dancer and I spent a lot of time dancing in public with him! Problem I was shy so at home alone I’d blast and dance with myself!, Billy always makes me HAPPY!!!!🎉🎉❤❤❤❤

I'm glad I chose to rewatch Flushed Away. This banger would've been lost to me otherwise

Pay your respects to the director of the video! Only one of the most influential horror directors of all time, Tobe Hooper. Yes, that one-who directed a little 70’s independent film called ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre’

Flushed Away was a great movie.

"Procuramos as antigas canções, para achar as memórias que elas carregam"

To go back in time when good lyrics and song writing collide with an exceptional voice 🙏

I came here because it's almost 2020 and I'm still dancing with myself lol

Whew , almost thought billy was gonna catch a murder charge after knocking all those poor people off the top of that post-apocalyptic building. This video is a reminder and a lesson from billy that every new day of living is a gift and to always wear safety gear while climbing tall objects. Thanks Bill. Thill.

I remember seeing this played along with other Classic 80’s music videos like “Rock It” by Herbie Hancock and “Take On Me” by A-ha, etc. on the weekends and all Summer long at an upscale arcade called GameWorks back in 2001. Changed my life.

Past: Flushed away Now: Sex education

"When the cat's away, the mice will play! The holiday starts now everyone!"

I was born 1997 in Costa Rica , somehow I had this song on repeat when I was 9 years old

Decada de 80, ouvia muito Billy Idol e dançava muito nas discotecas, essa musica era deliciosa para dançar.

Hated the guy when I was a kid... but now, gosh... they can't make coolness like this these days.

Esse é o comentário brasileiro que você procura :) 🇧🇷🥳

TIMELESS‼️🤍‼️

Very good!! I love song. Thank you for sharing.

1995 - Amazing song! 2009 - Awesome song! 2019 - Incredible song! 3019 - Still a piece of art

3 seconds of song and you are already moving. Impossible to stand still. I'd love to be like Phil in Groundhog Day and relive '80ies and '90ies forever

Im a hipbop cat and dis shit STILL BANG SINCE 1983! DAT 40 years ago!!! 2024 june 3rd! Im abt to play WHITE WEDDING NEXT!!

what great lyrics. I remember seeing this video in the 1980's on MTV. still as cool and still exciting to hear. ive always wondered how solo artists write thier songs.

Man am I the only one who is on some 80s and 90s marathon..

Rock on Billy ❤ 2023 and your music is legendary!!

I love Billy idol! He was always my favourite tough guy of the 80s! And what a tune this is! A floor filler back in the day! 👊🤘

When you accidentally start a fight with yourself because

I used to play this at "Spanky's!", the Bar & Grill I worked at. We served nothing but Pulled Pork, and Jerk Chicken. Hands above the table sir!!

His music has such an amazing vibe... first time listening to billy ever

I was 19 when this Amazing album came out. I was so beyond happy then. Now I am old🥲 I Need To Go Back To The 80s Immediately!!!

I'm jealous of my parents for being born in this era.

man, The 80's and Billy kicked soooooo much ASS!

Grande Billy. Se pure Radio 24 suona le sue canzoni, vuol dire qualcosa. Vai Billy!

amazed this was in IF. This song is about the joys of knocking one out Well, I looked all over the world And there's every type of girl But your empty eyes seem to pass me by Leave me dancing with myself

When MTV didn't suck!♥️♥️♥️

This is one of those songs that, when it comes on the radio, I automatically crank the volume up to 'ears bleed' level.

Wow this song came out 42 years ago ! I was 12 years old then but I remember when the song came out. Was really a song you could dance to!.

I remember meeting Billy Idol at the El Mocombo, Toronto in the early eighties. He had left Generation X and was now on his own. Someone I knew in the audience was good friends with them. So took me back stage before his performance. Some of my friends had tried to convince me that he had sold out by leaving his former band. I didn't say too much to him. But he went out of his way to be very friendly. He walked us down the stairs later saying he had to get ready to go on. H was very sweet. No attitude. I was impressed.

If you're listening to this in 2021, you're a mega legend!

Billy Idol helped define 80"s music,attitude and looks

This song makes me so happy. I remember in 2010 when I decided to do a masters, I would play this song and have a glass of whiskey before going to boring classes 😂
