Billy Idol is absolutely fantastic, so I can't imagine The Donnas being able to replicate that in any way that would sound good. Who knows though, I haven't heard it.

So... Is there a solo version and a separate Generation X version?
I'm not that familiar with his early career. :/

What do you mean by ACTUALLY? On the record it's credited to Billy Idol/Tony James.

There's a Generation X version, released in 1981. Then, Billy left the group and released a solo EP that same year with a remix of the song. So, yeah, there's 2 versions -- the original version by Generation X and a remixed version by Billy.
