BILLY SQUIER
YOU CAN'T DENY THAT THIS GUY IS ONE OF THE GREATEST SINGERS OF ALL TIME.
HE HAS A VOICE LIKE NO OTHER.
I'M 37 AND HAVE BEEN A FAN OF HIS SINCE BACK IN THE EARLY 80'S WHEN I WAS A YOUNG GIRL. I MARRIED A MAN WHO WAS JUST AS BIG A FAN OF HIS, THAN ME. NOW OUR TWO SONS LISTEN TO HIM AND REALLY LIKE HIS MUSIC AS WELL. ROCK ON BILLY

Billy Squire Career
No argument here Billy Squire has a great rock voice and had a nice early 80's career.

The Stroke Rox!
B-) I had a stroke this year and I love to play this as my theme song to my brain injury1

Missing his first album when he went on his own in 1980.
Another album most fans don't know exists is called "The Tale of The Tape" It did not get wide distribution because it was mainly sold in BARS before the Stroke Album. But it is just as good if not better.

He still kicks ass.

Yeah Billy doesn't get the respect he deserves from the media types but talk to any musician who knows his work and he gets lots of respect. I think Tell the Truth album (1993?) was his best album ever.

Before his Time
Billy is one of the best artist who was under appreciated for this style and class. He is an ICON to us that know his music and he can be put in the category of being CLASSIC. Billy rocks on and His music live on. Miss you Billy.

Underrated
I feel Billy Squier is one of the most underrated talented muscians of my generation.
#9 - Maria - 11/19/2007 - 19:40
I agree that billy squier is underrated and I do wish media gives billy the respect he deserves, although, he may not be making another album but certanily try to tribute to him that he has not lost his fans

amazing!
just got home from seeing billy perform with ringo starr here tonight in my hometown of Windsor, Ontario. Canada. I wasn't quite sure who Billy was, but he is absolutely amazing, probably my favourite tonight at the concert. I love this guy! Keep doing what you're doing Billy! Ringo's lucky he's got you on this tour!

#12 - JAMH - 03/14/2009 - 05:13
Stroke
What is Stroke about? Big music business stroking him or a musicians ego or pocket. Something like that!! lol
Its not meant to be perverted sorry guys.
I do so wish YOU BILLY SQUIER would come around & play in NY. I love you then & I love you now,
No one has your voice or your style.
Your great.
