“White Wedding” is a song by Billy Idol that appeared on his album Billy Idol (1982). Although “the Big 80’s:Episode I” of VH1’s Pop-up Video trivia show claims Idol wrote the song to voice his displeasure with his sister’s fiance (who impregnated her before marrying her), this has turned out not to be the case. On an episode of VH1 Storytellers, Idol claims that there was never any family resentment towards his sister, and that the song simply heightened fantasy and nothing more.
It is often considered his most successful song, although other Idol songs charted higher. It reached #36 on the Billboard Hot 100 on its original release, and reached #6 in the
UK upon its release there in 1985.
