Billy Idol and Avril Lavigne come from two very different generations, but they represent weirdly similar strains of MTV-ready sorta-punk. Perhaps they were always fated to collaborate. Current Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame nominee Billy Idol recently announced Dream Into It, his first new album in more than a decade, and we posted lead single “Still Dancing.” On the LP, Idol has duets with future tourmate Joan Jett and with the Kills’ Allison Mosshart, and he’s just dropped the Avril Lavigne duet “77” on us.
