“Respond to this challenge by either using the prompt word dark, or going with the above picture, or by means of the song ‘Evil Ways’, or by going with another song”.
My first thought was a song from the eighties, “White Wedding” sung by Billy Idol. We listened to many Idol songs, mainly because my middle son played guitars and copied Idol’s style. Having three teenagers, I listened to a lot of music!
“The music video, featuring Idol attending a goth wedding, is one of his best-known. The bride is played by Perri Lister, Idol’s real-life girlfriend at the time. She is also one of the three dancers clad in black leather, who slap their buttocks in time with the clap track in the song as they shimmy downwards near the end. “That’s the kind of thing they love in England”, says Idol.”
“In one scene, Idol forces a wedding ring made of barbed wire onto Lister’s finger and cuts her knuckle. Lister insisted that her knuckle actually be cut in order for the scene to appear more realistic.[11] MTV initially removed this scene from the video.” Wikipedia
I’ve never seen the video, but it sounds pretty weird.

Thursday Inspiration #325 Evil Ways
The Bag Lady 
Nice choice, Cheryl as it was good to hear this song again. The song was partially inspired by Idol’s real-life younger sister, Jane, who was getting married and pregnant at the time. Perri Lister is an English dancer, singer, and actress who was Billy Idol’s long-term girlfriend and creative partner for nine years during the 1980s.
