    Ten-time Grammy-winning songwriter, producer, and artist FINNEAS joins Nile Rodgers to discuss his new band The Favors, his solo work, and his collaborations with his sister Billie Eilish. FINNEAS reveals the “cloak-and-dagger” behind-the-scenes story of the James Bond theme No Time To Die, the “gift” of Billie’s bury a friend being used as the theme for HBO’s True Detective, and how much he loves humor in music. He also talks about writing with Ashe for The Favors’ album The Dream, the compromises he makes in his music, and how his sister always gets the final say on their songs: “You’re the one that’s going to sing this song 200 times this year.” All full episodes of Deep Hidden Meaning are available to Apple Music subscribers on Apple Podcasts.

    Billy Idol

    Nile Rodgers and Billy Idol have been close friends since the early 1980s, when Billy moved to New York City. In a decade defined by excess, the two managed to survive the city’s wild party scene and each created some of the era’s most iconic tracks. In this fascinating and often hilarious conversation, the disco pioneer and the English punk reflect on their unlikely friendship and explain why Billy’s upcoming documentary is titled Billy Idol Should Be Dead. We hear how Billy fused danceable beats with punk attitude to become an MTV mainstay, and uncover the stories behind global hits like 'White Wedding', 'Rebel Yell', and 'Eyes Without a Face'.
