Dancing with Myself" is a song written by singer Billy Idol and bassist Tony James, first recorded by their band Generation X in 1979. The song was re-recorded and commercially released by the band newly re-branded as Gen X as a 7" single and a 12" in October 1980, but was a sales failure, reaching only in the UK Singles Chart. It was then included on the band's subsequent album Kiss Me Deadly (1981).

Produced by Keith Forsey. Dancing With Myself Lyrics. On the floors of Tokyo-o Or down in London town to go, go A-with the record selection and the mirror's reflection I'm a-dancing with myself Oh, when there's no-one else in sight A-in the crowded lonely night Well, I wait so long for my love vibration And I'm dancing with myself When Idol left Gen X and began a solo career in 1981, he remixed and re-released the song in the United States as a single that soon became Idol’s first hit single. In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Idol says that the inspiration for Dancing With Myself came to him during a 1978 trip to a Japanese discotheque.

On Guitar Center Sessions, Idol explained: "With 'Dancing With Myself' I was trying to put back in punk energy, but streamline the music at the same time and make it great to dance to and slightly more sexual - some of the things that punk precluded because it was a sort of gang kind of music. I wanted to put a sexual feeling into it, and that's when I started doing with songs like 'Dancing With Myself. More songs from Billy Idol. More songs with videos directed by famous people.

Dancing With Myself" as written by Tony James and Billy Idol. On the floors of Tokyo A-down in London town's a go go A-with the record selection, And the mirror's reflection, I'm a dancin' with myself. If I looked all over the world And there's every type of girl But your empty eyes seem to pass me by And leave me dancin' with myself. So let's sink another drink Cause it'll give me time to think If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance And I'll be dancin' with myself. Oh oh, Dancing with a-myself, Oh, oh, dancing with myself Well, there's nothing to lose And there's nothing to prove, well, Dancing a-with myself.
