On being felicitated, Billy said, "It really is crazy to find myself getting an award like this, or being honoured in this way. I mean, 47 years of doing this after I started in Generation X, and 35 years after coming here, I just really could never have imagined anything like this," he continued. "Initially, we did the music back in the mid-'70s during the punk rock time. There wasn't much hope or anything. We decided if there's nothing, there's no future, we're going to do what we love. And that's what I did. I did the music because I loved it. It wasn't for any other reason, really," he added. The Gangster, The Cop, The Devil: South Korean Film Starring Ma Dong-seok aka Don Lee To Get Hollywood Remake.

"Anyway, I didn't really think doing this would last very long. We thought maybe six months, maybe a year, maybe two years. I could never have imagined something like this. It's just incredible," Billy shared. Billy is best known for anthems including White Wedding, Dancing With Myself, and Rebel Yell.
