"The Very Best Of Billy Idol: Idolize Yourself" is a new career-spanning CD, Deluxe Edition CD/DVD and digital collection from EMI and includes two stunning brand new songs, "John Wayne" and "New Future Weapon" which prove in no uncertain terms that Billy Idol is back to superb form. The new tracks find the man still at the peak of his powers, working with longtime partner and guitar great Steve Stevens and his other current band members, drummer and songwriting collaborator Brian Tichy and keyboardist Derek Sherinian. Of his new song "John Wayne", Idol says, "When I'm singing it, I'm thinking about the characters John Wayne played. They were usually men with a flaw in their character or something dark in their past they're trying to rise above before the end of the movie. So it's not about the kick-in-the-door John Wayne or the barroom fight John Wayne -- it's more the man who overcomes."
