[trouzerpants]

[moznico]

[opossumITA]

LONG LIVE COMRADE ADAM ANT! ^_______^

[Erzsebettttt]

Marie Antoinette made this track fckin famous and awesome

[widdlepuddyfat]

@Erzsebettttt Excuse me? This song was way awesome before this movie. Yeesh.

[Diogenes1360]

Definition of Charisma - Adam Ant.

[garyw930]

May I recommend the book 'A Concise Guide To Eighties' Music' by Karl Vorderman. The author is a big fan of this track.

[angelsforheaven]

for some reason, that guy reminds me of johnny deep......

[AmyColquhoun]

@angelsforheaven Johnny Depp reminds me of Adam ant :)

[nuttyboy11]

Red skin suffering..... No me, Adam..... I live in Scotland..........Where 2 drummers are the norm....

[MoldolT]

I remeber me and my friend cantered up and down the hall way to the beginning of this song :P

[ihasch]

Malcolm McLaren introduced Ant and Bow Wow Wow to the so-called Burundi Beat from recordings of Burundi drumming he brought back from France. It sounds like other percussive paterns you hear in jazz recordings, but at the time it was controversial. Really no different than reggae/ska influences and funk and so forth.

[DG4REAL1971]

First record i ever bought age ten, still sounds great. Got it from woolies for about 90p

[hooters800]

This song makes adultery seem so right

[paullavan2011]

As brilliant as ever.

[MCGypsyBomber]

Absolutely brilliant love all of his songs thumbs up if you agree that this song is absolutely briliant

[forestgumpaed]

he had it all went a bit zany now hes sane....i love music.

[sgtraytango]

@forestgumpaed well, he never went insane nor is he sane again, he went into an episode, found out he had bipolar and there we are, he's had it for life

doesnt stop him having great songs though and i always loved the dual drums on this one

[thunderstruck1]

drums are fucking awsome.

[turquelle]

@thunderstruck1 I know! The drum beat is such an important element of Adam ant songs

[nuttyboy11]

Shade too white...... Never got it when i was 9..... Still a top tune!!! NB11

[PotterUK1]

Got to love the double drums

[isyyyyyyyy]

[danifonseca15]

I really love this band.

[struanrobertson1606]

[DancingSpiderman]

Wee Man make guud musics.

[FilmFig]

Franz must have had gotten their cool brit rcoker style from them. This was the best time for rock and the post punk revival was just as sweet and now all this electro shit has come back FUCK,

[FilmFig]

Bring new wave back...

[gertmadsen666]

This must be there best song. This is so cool -then and now!

[ilovebumfun]

[upstatelugh]

"I feel beneath the white there is a red skin suffering from centuries of taming."

^ mar sin fíor an-mo chara.

[GOOBERZ11]

I remember punk rock stickers & tees reading: Black Flag Kills Ants On Contact!

[xiviri]

[GOOBERZ11]

@xiviri No...Franz Ferdinand sounds like THEM. ;)

[xiviri]

@GOOBERZ11 yeah, that's what I wanted to say

[lovesjustlust]

@erikgiles1 Agreed

[TimthedogLinehan]

two drummers following eachother so closely must be hard to do

[paulnewman62]

@TimthedogLinehan .. i think you'll find it was actually 3 sets of drums

[TimthedogLinehan]

@paulnewman62 I had no idea-it must have been hell touring

[paulnewman62]

@TimthedogLinehan ..try to check out a video for this track..it features band members Terry Lee Miall & Chris (merrick) Hughes on drums with Jon Moss (before he joined culture club) so there were 3 drummers on some tracks on there first album..

[Problembeing]

@paulnewman62 'Dirk Wears White Sox' was their first album, but yup, Jon Moss was on that and 'Prince Charming', as well as this.

[paulnewman62]

@TimthedogLinehan ..try to check out a video for this track..it features band members Terry Lee Miall & Chris (merrick) Hughes on drums with Jon Moss (before he joined culture club) so there were 3 drummers on some tracks on their first album..

[apokryphos117g]

@erikgiles1 Definitely!Probably what makes it so sexy-the drums make it primal&double drums,well you know,you told me!

[apokryphos117g]

@erikgiles1 Definitely the best&quite sexy! I am sad 2 say that I had never heard this song before.Thanks,Sofia4 not only being a great director,but aquainting us with a brilliant soundtrack as well.

[saltyypeoch]

I want to make wild love to a stranger while this song plays in the background

[luvatug]

his music though dated had some raw power to it, still sounds fkin kicking sweeet...

[iceuk1]

great tune miss the old days

[SoundcheckShelby]

Its so sexy. i love this song

[jazzytds]

The best of all of the songs...pure, raw, new wave.

[LetItBeRockForever]

Every time I hear a song of adam ant I wanna jump don't know why

[NerinaJ]

omg loved loved loved AA and the ants back in the day

[namesR4tombstones]

I loved this when I was a kid and still think highly of it now.

Looking back, the '80's was a decade of such originality that it makes today's bland, insipid, manufactured Pop-Idol crap pale into insignificance. I may be getting old (born 1970) but I'm thankful that I got the chance to grow up, listening to this stuff.

[Djlullaby22]

wonderful! lol

[Lengsel7]

As I watch this, there is a Lancome Paris ad with a pic of a model right next to Adam's photo......Adam is twice as pretty as the Lancome model.

[CarolinaOcelot]

Found this on Vinyl today for 3 bucks!

Yayyyy!

[Chihiro662]

I think im in love!!! No music is this good!

[wonadewona]

class.. 

[Jonnyeck72]

The first band I remember being fully in to. Hearing this as an nine

year old, it made me aware of music as more than what your parents listened to.

[natallica2442]

the most wonderful beautiful man that ever grace this earth x

[teletropolis]

why is there a red skin suffering? ant music is their banner, hei yah hei yah....

it question the brutality of colonisation based on color.

thank you adam for your beautiful mind.

long live geromino

[dantheman012008]

I have lived my life to this tune " Fucking Ace " !

Best tune in the whole world!

[lunaticXromance]

I'm 16 and I love this song thanx to the movie Marie Antoinette!!

[anglodansk]

Pure Class!

[machanalan]

[MemphisRogue]

[ardalsgirl]

[ilovebumfun]

[apokryphos117g]

@ilovebumfun Wait,"Dog Eat Dog"by AC/DC?

[stickyIhoney]

1997 makes me feel old lol! I was born in 1989, a little late for this :(((

Fucking awesome music, dress and song, LOVE IT. The noughties could do with more of this :D xx

[quornholio]

God, I'm older than all y'alls! Born in 1965, and feeling privileged to have grown up with this awesome music!

[railman01]

@quornholio Same here. I was born in 1967 and remember the whole decade and its music vividly. Including this classic from A&TA

[xDiamondDoll702x]

@railman01 lucky you but damn you're old lol

[railman01]

@xDiamondDoll702x My 17 year old daughter nearly disowned me when i showed her my early 90s rave dance and Northern Soul dance styles recently, lol. 42 in body but still 15 in the mind. (-:

[xDiamondDoll702x]

@railman01 lol i bet she was slightly embarrassed my dad is 44 im only 19 and love 80s music i would listen to this over lil Wayne any day

[railman01]

@xDiamondDoll702x Just listened to prom queen and lollipop by lil wayne, not bad at all. 19, so, you were born in 1990 or 91. Aaahh those were the days. House music one week, Northern Soul the next, i had the time of my life.

[xDiamondDoll702x]

@railman01 i was born in 91 and i like some of his music but not all. i prefer this music tho

[railman01]

@xDiamondDoll702x Mmm great 80s music. Try the Human League's Love Action, Soft Cell's version of Tainted Love and Say hello wave goodbye and Duran Duran's Save a prayer. Great tracks from great bands.

[jb3000000]

@railman01 Could've been me writing that LOL, Same age, same story. Though I also was into early hip-hop, but at the time saw it as a natural extension to synth music (with dance, grafitti and rapping as additions)/instead of dark thoughts and sharp hair-cuts)

[mightybooshrock82]

wow i was born in 1997 i still luvv 80's music tho and adam and the ants are brilliant!!!

[IntoTheSunOfTheCure]

'95 and I love this stuff too!

[liverlisa]

awesome memories! I grew up with Adam and the Ants and Adam Ant was my first concert ...Masey Hall in Toronto 1982...I will never forget it! The best memories and I still love to hear this music xoxo

[lbtrader1]

i grew up with this and love his music great times

[IntoTheSunOfTheCure]

This is a awesome song. Awesome!!

[stmmarcab]

there are two sets of drummers on this song

[dkraft1]

Actually 3 sets of drummers.....and (Then) you count the guitars being used as percussion / rhythm also. This song is as "Tribal" as it gets....I remember being 21 in 1980, and going into the clubs with the white make-up across my nose and under my eyes....

[stmmarcab]

thanks for that info i didnt know there was 3 sets of drummers .......i do agree they were good times

[bxymox]

So is the crying indian trying to tell me how I shouldn't be littering in that late 70's early 80's PSA. BBBBOOOOOHOOOOOO!!!!

[mynciee]

This has some of my all time favorite drum sections, ever!

[incandi]

[cowpops21]

[fleastoke86]
