Retrovision: Billy Idol - Eyes Without a Face

"Eyes Without a Face" was released 40 years ago and became Billy Idol's first single to reach the Billboard Hot 100. The song was inspired by the title of the French horror film Les Yeux sans visage (1960). It featured backing vocals from Perri Lister, who was also Idol's partner at the time. Prior to this, Lister had provided backing vocals for Visage and Kid Creole and the Coconuts. Additionally, she appeared topless in Duran Duran's video for the song "The Chauffeur."
