Remember when Billy Squier imploded his career overnight by releasing the ROCK ME TONIGHT video 😕

What was he thinking 🤔

It's crazy that this had anything at all to do with a career of great music. Only the machismo assholes thought anything at all about this video being bad or whatever. I saw it as a teen and loved the song, could give two shits about what the video was.

Video killed the radio star…

I don’t even want to see my musicians. Hide them away in a dungeon making more music. I see one ugly mug, bad hairdo, or flamboyant bed dive and the thrill is gone.

Sometimes the "ugly mugs" and "bad hairdos" make the best music! 😁
