"Catch My Fall" is a song by the English rock musician Billy Idol, released in 1984 as the fourth and final single from his second album Rebel Yell. It was written by Idol and produced by Keith Forsey, with sax provided by Mars Williams.[3]

Critical reception

[edit]

Billboard said that "Sharp dance tracks provide the pulse" and that Idol uses a "low-key melodic vocal" comparable to his vocal performance in "Eyes Without a Face."[4]

In a review of the 1988 UK single re-release, Kevin Rowland of Record Mirror described "Catch My Fall" as a "tough song with a good build" and also praised the "good production and playing".[5]
