“White Wedding” is a 1982 hit song by Billy Idol, a rock anthem that explores themes of longing, desire, and obsession. The song, originally released on his 1982 self-titled album, is a baffling concept with a mix of latex suits, Christian iconography, gravedigging, and marriage. The lyrics are open to interpretation, but they convey a sense of longing, desire, and obsession. The song was written by Idol himself, drawing inspiration from his personal experiences during a tumultuous relationship.
The dual meaning of “White Wedding” is that it seems to be about a traditional wedding ceremony, but the lyrics convey a sense of longing, desire, and obsession. The song was released in late 1982 and sank without a trace, but it was revived in 1983 and eventually cracked the UK Top 10. The song was written in just 20 minutes after Idol began thinking about his sister in the recording studio.
The song is energetic and guitar-driven, with the opening riff setting the tone for the rest of the track. The song is not entirely about Idol’s real sister, but rather about his girlfriend who wants to marry someone else. The song also explores psychotechnology or occult practice, with the lyrics referring to attraction and joining together something deep inside a man’s heart.
