Eyes without a face


"Eyes Without a Face" by Billy Idol is originally in the key of E minor. Released in 1983 as a single from his second studio album, "Rebel Yell," the song was both a commercial success and a departure from his usual punk rock style. Written by Billy Idol and Steve Stevens, the song highlights Idol's evolving artistry. Trivia includes its title, inspired by a French horror film from 1960. The melody is haunting and melodic, with synthesizer backdrops and soft harmonies that contrast with Idol's typically harder-edged vocals, making it a standout ballad in his discography.
