  • Comment removed

  • I am learning about Highwaymen at school

  • damn this generation....

  • @TheTF2Spyheh Thanks...

  • @rhyfelwrDuw Dude, all the music these days sing about is crime, whores, and fucking drugs.

  • Damn, the boy can seriously pull off lipgloss!

  • I came here simply because, ADAM AND THE ANTS ARE THE FRIKKIN BEST BAND IN THE WORLD! :) x

  • hi antfans!!!!

    i don't suppose that anyone could put the song mowhawk up on youtube could they?, can't find the song anywhere

    thank you! :)

  • This video always gives me a Blackadder III kinda vibe. Adam definitely should have had a part as a highwayman/Flashheart sort of character.

  • I saw Adam in 1982 at Hordern Pavillion in Sydney and await his return to Australia.

    Can't wait.

    Coudln't care less about Gordon St 2 nite, crap show.

  • my friends step dad manages adam ant

  • KR Rudd Puff & Stuff ! Time to be a dandy foreign man & tell them I'm standing & delivering !

  • the trooper by iron maiden

  • any1 think the beginning riff is a bit like iron trooper

  • WELCOME TO PARADISE CITY!!!!

  • My teacher in primary school showed me this 3 years ago and I have loved the song since then ^_^ I love Adam Ant his voice is very similar to the god David Bowie <3

  • Anyone else here because of Adam Hills: Gordon St. Tonight?

  • i came here myself, i didnt need HH or stupid xbox games!

  • Anyone else find it disgraceful to have 'Pitbull' In an advert before watching Adam and the Ants? I came here not to listen to Shit.

  • he is so clearly an actor not a musician.

  • @bentnob he can do both :P

  • you have to watch/hear it to believe it could be that bad! i came here because of ricky gervais on xfm 

  • He's made a comeback thanks to Horrible Histories... but WOW. This guy is sooo greeeeeat!

  • DICK TURPIN HORRIBLE HISTORIES <3

  • my chemistry teacher brought me here

  • @Topshizzleable how?

  • My dad and auntie used to live next to this girl who used to go out with one of the Ants and they went to rehearse there back when they weren't known. It was so funny.

  • i came here because of Saints Row: The Third.

  • @bobismification burnout paradise

  • good video, great singer, but DUDE looks like a lady! I get the white stripe across his face (who doesn't wear that??), but what is with the pink lipstick?????

  • @STEPcoach Man, that was how a lot of guys rolled back in the early 80's, New Romantics were pretty metrosexual!

  • @STEPcoach its got gloss on it to make hiss lips shiney on camera

  • If I'm ever to be hung, I want the Tuskegee Airmen on the platform... dancing.

    I love the drums. The rhythms and cadences.

    Also, the tonality from the background singers. Someone commented on the "Da diddly. Quoi? Quoi?" and rightly so, but, the "Omm" chants add this whole other level of goodness. So dynamic. Swirling. I could listen to this over and over. So good.

  • soooooo freakin handsome!!!!!

  • gods help me but this is sooo funny . i know johnny depp says he based captin jack on keith richards i still say it was adam ant.

  • thumbs up if you were allready watching this before HH did it :P

  • @TheEddiejones15 hipster level over 9000

  • Da diddly qua qua!

  • Adam Ant used to date Jamie Lee Curtis. Adam and the Ants were a one of a kind band. Still love them.

  • Where have I heard a song like this before/ Oh yeah; Horrible Histories!

  • I originally came here because of Horrible Histories, and since then have fallen in love with Adam Ant. Anyone else?

  • @reallyverybored1 Haha same! I think I have a thing about highwaymen now lol :)

  • @RepublicOH hehe, tell me about it ;)

  • @reallyverybored1 my first ever concert, i believe it was like1982-83. the first year he was without the ants. have loved him since.

  • @reallyverybored1 Yes but a long time ago when I was 15 years old !

  • @reallyverybored1 Yep!!!! I love this song!!!! puts Bieber to shame!!

  • @beaucerongirl anything puts beiber to shame adam simply floors him :P

  • @reallyverybored1 I loved Adam Ant in the early 80s - Had a massive poster of him on my bedroom wall! LOL! He was brilliant and he's back :D

  • If i saw Tom Cruse shagging Justin Beiber in the middle of time square, this would still be the gayst thing ive ever seen

  • @Ammrree That guy's still had more girls in a year than you will in your entire life!

  • the original captain jack..

  • Lord Flashheart

  • Get low get low, move side to side... oh wait, wrong song

  • saints row 3

  • Fuck vevo and other corporate manipulated art.

  • im here because of horrible histories :)

  • Bend over and I'll deliver

  • saw him last week and am going again this week, so good

  • lol saw him on friday and he was epic :L

  • When I heard this on SR3 i nearly flip it's been one of my favorite Adam ant songs for years!

  • He was really hot! xD

  • The Horrible Histories Dick Turpin pastiche is actually better. ;)

  • @bonniherself no its not!

  • @TheCleopatrathea All these "no it isn't" responses to what was essentially a joke comment. Yes, it is No, it isn't! Yes, it is! No, it isn't! Good heavens. People will argue about anything on YouTube!

  • @bonniherself Nope. It isn't. Although, it is more informative nothing can be better than the original. Although, it is a very good spoof.

  • @LimitedANlME Well, the comment was intended to be tongue in cheek. I like history, and I like comedy, and I prefer the comic, history-teaching spoof. :)

  • @bonniherself Fair enough :)

  • I'm seeing someone say No Doubts version is better. How is that even possible for someone to think a remake is better than the original?? Nothing beats The Ant!!

  • The REAL Jack Sparrow

  • No Doubt Cover is Way Better!! No Doubt Fucking Rocks!! Adam Ant is Legit Crazy!!

  • First Burnout: Paradise, NOW Saints Row The Third! These devs are AWESOME for including this song in the soundtrack

  • I remember when Sugar Ray covered this song on their second album "Floored"- and I have no idea why they chose to do it....

  • Money, life, anything inbetween, he can take what he wants from me, when he wants, how he wants. I have no objections, for HIM... I'd give it all.

    Ugh, I sound so pervy and cheap, but to be fair, anyone would be.

  • Is it wierd that Adam Ant reminds me of Captn. Jack Sparrow?

  • saints row the third xD the mix

  • isn't that Amanda Donohoe in The Black and White dress

  • I always love love love to hear this song....

  • @shellsseashells yes just the phrase Stand and Deliver takes me back. The new romantics were anything but bomb sog

  • volition you ledgends what better song to beat a homeless person with a dildo

  • Horrible Histories have so copied this song... still love HH though!

  • Can't wait to see them in Orlando this coming February!

  • Saints row 3 reminded me how great this song is, damn you radio for not playing it anymore.

  • saints row 3 :D

  • @KeenanBradfordBen

    They included this song in SR3 soundtrack? HOW GREAT VOLITION IS!

  • @invidentusoff yes its on the mix radio station

  • SOO sexy

  • did know this song but saints row the third got me to come back here

  • Adam Ant does his own stunts lol

  • We used to dress up and perform this stuff in various clubs who could tolerate our antics.still know the lyrics and dances but the costumes got ripped off. Stand and Deliver!!

  • Horrible Historiess :)

  • @TheLyricsBabe watching that exact song now on tv :)

  • @TheLyricsBabe may have bad histories but this band will always be my all time fav

  • the horrible history one is so funny

  • wowzas

  • Heard this in yr 6 at school.

  • I love this song so much, and I'm a teenager. "Even though you fool your soul, your conscience will be mine!" That is my favorite line.

  • He is beautiful.

  • I love Adam Ant's music!!! :D

  • we got showed this at school x.x

  • unfortunatlyi have to say horrbile history bought me here

  • @fullocrud same here

  • check that walkman the dude is holding. Yeah 80s! In your face, iPod. Carrying that was a workout.

  • Y do SE block things wen they only get uploaded through another one anyway lol. Or is it, they they want that particular video of a certain song copyrighted under Advertisements also lol.

  • Adam and the Ants>All the shit chart stuff nowadays.

  • im really happy!!! my boyfriend is called Adam and literally if u put a white strip across his face than he looks alot like Adam Ant!!!!!!

  • how can someone dislike this?

  • My Dad and My Friend's Dad Used To Have The White Stripe Along Their Face and Used To Dress Like Adam :)

  • I'd da diddly qwa qwa him ;)

  • @chloeLUVSmj I think they BOTH are amazing!! To me HH is best because Mat is in it but to you you prefer this version best. It's just different opinions

  • This is one of his best songs!

  • I'm so glad Adam's English!

  • I want to lick the make-up off his face ;)

  • Adam Ant + Amanda Donohoe in the same video - perfect! :D <3

  • @chloeLUVSmj So you're going to see him live then? Hope he doesn't disappoint! After all these years, i would be interested to know what he has in him to perform live, especially after all the problems he's had over the years. When is the show? You'll have to give a report of the show!

  • This song has been soooo helpful for my research into highwayman clothing :)

  • because i totally didn't play the dick turpin version afterwards :) thank god for them both

  • Я недавно узнал про Adam ant посмотрев фильм Jubilee Derek Jarman и нашел на Youtube, вот этот клип и другие песни. И я в восторге. Adam гениальный артист, - он очаровывает своей артистичной манерой исполнения, визуальной подачей, интересной музыкой. Я слушаю эту, а так же ряд других песен уже неделю, каждый день и мне не надоедает.

    Он гениален.

  • STAND ANDF DELIVER!!! follow me on twitter @amberbayntonette try twitter, not a bullet or a knife :D

  • My childhood crush...

  • @bebebabeanne my crush now x :)

  • You mean you have to be a forty something to see him? I was about 10 when I first bought Stand & Deliver, makes 1 feel ancient, but I think his music is timeless & shouldn't matter what age you are. Sounded amazing then and still does now!

  • @chloeLUVSmj Oooh can I come too?!!! Where is he performing?

  • @chloeLUVSmj No it's not weird! It makes you the dandy highway man of modern music! It is reassuring to hear that 12 year olds take a disliking for todays drivell! Though the lord of antshire is very entertaining, there are many other thoroughly decent acts of the same genre. Top of my list of artists to take a look at would be Thomas Dolby, Lene Lovich (you'll love her!) "Bow Wow Wow" Gary Numan, Ultravox, etc etc

  • oh thks but rlly bit wierd

  • I believe the song was a rant about how people have no sense of fashion or style and ought to look at themselves in the mirror before going out. His role in the video is a highwayman, a criminal, suggesting that he is a rebel (confirmed by his criticism of the host at the dinner party which gets him almost hung), and that fact he mentions he can't find anything worth taking means he has no regard for the value of anything they find "good" to wear.

  • wats with the mirror?

  • Im 15 and i thought people knew this song but appartnly no one does except me, my teacher and my mother.....She told me how everyone in her school went to school with thier hair like Adam :)

  • @0mgItsJess Congrats on being such an unbelievably amazing, special and unique teenager. You knowing this song at 15 must make you some kind of messiah figure. I wish I was you.

    Is that enough validation for you? No one cares how old you are, it's not impressive.

  • This is bloody wierd,it good but i dont understandd it 

  • Adam was so ahead of his time

  • captain jack sparrow just got lucky

  • have to sit through adverts first..not good.

  • @chloeLUVSmj Must have been jolly good fun back then! Qa diddly qa qa!!!!!

  • Does he remind anyone else here of Debbie Harry? Or am I the only one?
