White wedding - Billy Idol

'White wedding' was originally released as the second single from Billy Idol's self-titled studio album in 1982. Although not Idol's highest-charting hit, it is often considered one of his most recognizable songs. In the US, it reached number 36 on the Billboard Hot 100 after it was re-issued in 1983. 

This clear vinyl edition was released in 1985, when the Vital Idol remix album had to be promoted. This is also why a 'Mega-Idol mix' appears on the B-side. It was a successful re-release: it peaked at number 6 in the UK singles chart.
