  • I love Adam ant and Robbie did a great version of a fab song. For the saddo who wished Robbie throat cancer. Well it's says it all really shame on you you're a gobshite seriously !!

  • Hę?! ADAM ANT FOREVER, a nie jakieś przeróbki, które są do niczego... :/

  • Jealousy is a terrible thing, and these sad bastard moronic comments show it.

  • I hope Robbie williams gets throat cancer and can never sing again.

  • @Pusta2000 You absolute fucking moron!!

  • Ok I like Robbie now that he's married and nice, but hell this is awful! I really hope Adam hasn't heard this version of it :S

  • As a huge Adam Ant fan it depresses me what judgemental tossers other Adam Ant fans have become, Listen to the song it says if you don't like what I am doing then Feck you. Adam Ant himself does some pretty dodgy covers these days which I guess is a tribute to the original artist which is all that this is, Just goes to show what boring middle age c*nts we have become, Not a huge Robbie Williams fan but well done to him for having a set and doing something different.

  • Not bad, but The Ants version pisses over it..........hate this bloke!

  • GREAT VERSION!, nice to be able to get to hear the lyrics for once, which are pretty good.

  • this sucks...bad!

  • what a turd, he thinks everthing he touches turns to gold,

    he really pulled this great song down to his level, and reduced it to a behind the goal chant, glad i never saw this first time round,

  • @fabios66 boo to you! oh how u wished u had millions in the bank - now who's the 'turd' (now THAT'S mature!)

  • @fabios66 he will always be a turd, as well you know !

  • short fat redcoat shleps his way through a classic...enjoy your retirement nob end.

  • @jaytv777 jealousy is hard to admit to isn't it? loser.

  • @fairydustclaire so's juvenile infatuation..Robbie doesn't love you...Robbie loves Robbie..sorry...it's people like him that are lowering the bar for humanity.

  • @jaytv777 hahahahahaha very funny.

    

  • Wanker

  • I'm pretty shocked at how bad this is .. Robbie is a talented young man BUT what or whom ever posessed him to do this cover needs a smacked bum ..

  • Dear Jackin, This is terrible. I do not think bridgwater really wished death upon Robbie. But the music and the singing have no redeeming qualities especially when contrasted with the original. I normally do post comment but this was so bad and such an insult to Stuart Leslie Goddard and fellow bandmates I felt compelled.

  • OMG awful, would be better if Wagner had sung it!!

  • That's....just atrocious. While I do on some level like Robbie Williams, he just slaughtered one of my favorite songs. There's just some music you DON'T meddle with.

  • Wrong wrong wrong on SO many levels :0/

  • Discusting...I knew I shouldn't have clicked on it....it doesnt deserve to be on related videos to adam ant :P

  • This is awful.

    Only Adam can do this song.

  • i personally like both versions. the original and the cover, both have there own spin. Robbie isn't trying to sound like ant- he has a rougher grittier sound while ant was more pop like and dancy. both i think are really good for each style of music

  • guys, he was trying to make a staement,its just before no regrets,"that music's lost its taste so try another flavor" he was rideing on the reputation of angels when everything else had flopped, this was like saying forget the stuff i did in "take that" im different now just give me a chance, ya see old before i die ect i forget the other 2 but he relised them before angel's and they flopped, l8r on there second relise after angels they went number 1, the take that fans needed to side with him

  • He didn't choose the simplest song to cover. This one is way beyond him.

  • kill yourself now Robbie

  • this sucks compared to ant

  • This is so awful

  • I would do us all a favor and disconect his Microphone so that we don't have to listen to this awful cover.

  • What a horrible horrible horrible horrible horrible cover of such a great song.

  • Terrible. Lol. If you saw this in a pub karaoke style you would giggle with your mates at him.

  • shite

  • I think Robbie is only famous because he KNOWS how to entertain, he isn't a very good singer though lol.

  • That was horrific why would anyone let something that awful happen I don't like Robbie at the best of times but no one covers the ants it's not possible to do it justice

  • Robbie..shut up and do us all a favor.

  • I wish I hadn't clicked on this- its a travesty!

  • oh dear! im embaressed for robbie whoever told him he should cover this song needs to be shot as much as robbie!!!!

  • For gods sake he's acting like it was origionaly him that sang it.  BUT IT WAS ADAM ANT FIRST!!!!!! Grrrrr

  • Even though I love my music from any time but recently this was the first version of this song I heard. Mum loved Adam Ant and Robbie Williams so this was like a dream when she found it on tape for the car. I loved Robbie back then - still do, kind of ashamed of myself - but have since realised that you can't touch the original. Even though this isn't TOO bad... I guess...

  • Unplug the jukebox and do us all a favour and stop trying to cover classic songs and mudering them. Atrocious cover.

  • my god a great song has just officially just been murdered !!!

  • unplug robbie williams and do us all a favor. lol! jk. this wasn't as bad as i expected it to be. well, aside from the fact he sterilized it to fit within the late 90s pop/rock scene. which kinda nullifies the whole point of the song. the song originally was a statement against mainstream music. so to cater it to a mainstream audience seems to defeat it in a way. that and you can't exactly do a song called "antmusic" if you aren't adam ant. it'd be like someone else covering the monkee's theme.

  • i just went out of my way to puke in my ass

  • Chap gave it a good try!!

  • If only this performance was on the Gong Show --- Robbie would get gonged back to the 90's where he belongs.

  • @WildBill6942 biggest star in uk ..no futher questions ,i rest my case

  • Not so bad...Ive heard worst covers...Scissor Sisters.."Do The Strand"?......Oh dear!Forget all that.....I just heard the last minute...Fukin horrible!

  • To be honest, although Robbie Williams REALLY does not sing this well at all, it grabs the attention of the younger generation who listen to him, and draws their attention to the awesomeness of Adam Ant's version.

    Really, Robbie Williams covering this song is the biggest form of appreciation, respect and admiration he could give to Adam Ant. He is making his inspiration known, like someone at karaoke would do.

    Don't wish death upon him! :(

  • @NephilimDF WELL SAID...CLAP ,CLAP

  • i as a person ,do not think iam messed up in the head or the soul but i agree , i wish someone would hurry up and shoot the cunt

  • @hkphillw lol, harsh

  • I kinda like this.

  • shocking. wish someone would hurry up and shoot him.

  • @bridgwater82 Seriously? I have no problem with negative comments but how could you wish death on anyone? Let alone a person you have never met? You are messed up in your head and your soul.

  • @Jackinthebox115

    Nah, any real fan of Adam would have the same feelings. I guess we're all messed up.

  • @Jackinthebox115 I couldent agree with u more wishing a death threat on is obviously wrong, but just this once ? please, pretty please with jam on it, go on u know u wanna

  • @Jackinthebox115

    Oh, get a grip. It's just a throw away comment.

  • @bridgwater82 nope have to agree..... the things you see when you haven't got a gun!!

  • WOW who would of thought......Robie Williams killing a classic

  • Chris Sharrock is on drums there. He's one of my favourite drummers that now plays with Oasis/Liams band. He also played with the La's (there she goes)

    The rest of this is dire. You can't hear anything and Robbie is just screaming.

  • why...

    WHY !?!

  • Unplug the jukebox and do us all a favor, that music lost its taste so try another flavor...

    I guess this cover version serves as a good example what the original song was about. Could it be that the original idea was to create a song that's not part of the pablum? Like, say, this cover?

  • I love Robbie and i love Adam Ant but NOOOOOOOOOO, so wrong..the track is not guitars its about the two drum kits pounding

  • WTF is this crap? If you are going to cover an Ant tune, at least do that shit proper!

  • No.  Just....no.

  • fucking amazing rob you nailed it absolutely outstanding.

  • go go rob , loving it lol

    . i know its a piss take lmao

  • what an absolute load of crap - not a patch on Adam Ant - Robbie is a 1st class prick ! ! !

  • i'm not going to say that was better than adam , but fuck i love robbie and to hear him sing probably the most influential track of my life i was overwhelmed , 1000 stars lol

  • man, this is like mixing beer with a wine cooler. yuck!

  • The problem with this is no one can duplicate Adam's style and flavor. He is an original. Everything he does is with a sexiness and a sence of humor. Also,NO ONE looks like him.Hard to top that. I admire that Robbie Williams tried to tribute Adam,but he butchered the song.Adam,I miss you.

  • NO Robbie, no no no!! What was he thinking?? Love Robbie's style and love Adam's but - ne'er the twain should meet. This is horrific.

  • typical boring 90s crap....monotone...no flash...no performance, just standing around...and on top of that..he ruined the song

  • kill him. Shocking version. What a cock.

  • OH PLEASE !!! REALLY totally trashed it !!!

  • ruined it

  • oh my...what next? priest doing enya...mind you...

  • o noooo.....bloody terrible......

  • this makes me want to cry.

    as david tennant said on never mind the buzzcocks, "robbie williams needs take that like a dalek needs a bungalow."

    why is he singing in a monotone? where's all the harmonies gone?!

  • Hey, this stuff is 12 years old... what I find interesting is the parallel between Robbie and Adam - both climbed the hights of pop music and both have had - ahem.... "challenges".... For what its worth, I like the fact that Robbie is paying tribute to his pop music predecessor...

  • You English...you call this shite, correct?  I liked Adam Ant in the Eighties...this pansy fuk ...ahhh!

  • how dare u? wot a cunt u leave this alone u twat!!!!

  • utter crap........

  • Wow that is Awsome!

  • No.

  • Where are the drums!??? You took the soul of this piece away so it drops like a jelly... (not to mention this too ordinary boy) - this is just a different thing with an old melody.

  • omg! this is shet!! this guy doesn´t understand the meaning of this song at all.... oh Adam I miss you!!!! please could someone explain to this little guy name Robbie what antmusic really means!!!??? (excuse my bad english)

  • I think it's a great "homage" !! Go Robbie. And I'm a die-hard fan of the Antz.. but even if it feels a bit like Karaoke it's still cool to see a super mainstream guy sharing some of his tastes.

  • soooo wrong!!!!!! Adam,.... come back and rescue us please! No one but the Ant God himself should atempt this song!

  • go robbie you aint fucked it up . stuart goddard should be proud that you wanted to sing his song

  • Nice guitar at 1.52 though :)

  • Only remedy to this tosh (Sorry Robbie, like you as a feel good singer, but you wrecked this), is go listen to Adam, ahhhhhhhhh !!! that's better!!!!!

    :)

  • AHHH ITS MOLESTING MY EARS

    I have to repect him for trying though...well...maybe...

  • of course its not his best, hes off his tits! when you lot have sold millions of albums, maybe then people will care what you have to say but until then id keep these things to yourselves.........i actually thought id logged onto YouTube for Retards when i saw your responces.........silly me!..................what am i like............Tut Tut!

  • Sorry, robbie. I don't think you pulled it off.

  • Blasphemy

  • Shoot, I cant believe someone other than Adam Ant can sing this song so badly.

  • CRAP

  • what a fail,

    why bother even to attempt it? no-one can sing this aswell as the god adam ant!

  • Lost the whole spirit of the original

  • suck my dick you fucking asshole. How dare you try and cover a great song, what just because your a nigel too you think you can do this. You should be shot in the face robbie and then i'd piss in the bullet hole that exploded your face

  • what a disaster version of this classic...

    robbie's trying to do adam ant with an ac/dc voice... does NOT work

  • this is truly dire

  • It feels like he's trying too hard. Also, it feels a bit too streamlined, Antmusic owes its charm and power to the powerful drums and the heavy (albeit a bit "off" sounding) guitar riffs. You can't turn that into a standard pop song without simply and plainly making it bland.

    Here you see what happens when a pop singer (a good one, RW ain't a bad singer) streamlines a song that lives off being anything but streamlined. It sounds bland.

  • <3 Adam Ant and <3 Robbie Williams

    and by the process of relevance....

    this sucked ass!!

  • What the fuck is this shit? This is a complete disgrace to Adam. Am I right or what?

    This is the worst cover, possibly ever.

  • @nikolaipoopoo Totally agree - I like Robbie BUT he shouldn't have done this song :-(

  • Oh please...book em Danno, they guilty of song murder....!!!!

  • I loved it

  • this sounds like a cat drowning in custard

  • I will NOT ask how andy4bcfc knows what a cat sounds like being drowned in custard. However, I contend it would have to be semolina pudding at least to be this bad.

  • That absolutely sucked.

  • why would anyone do this to a perfectly amazing anttrack?

    it's just shockingly awful.

    THIS MUSIC'S LOST ITS TASTE, TRY A MUCH BETTER FLAVOUR. ANTMUSIC!

  • Antmusic without the drum rimshots isnt Antmusic, this is dire.

  • oh dear, much prefer adam ant

  • now i've seen everything....

    :o

  • this is shocking...bullet please...

  • This version is appauling, It's almost as bad as No Doubt's Stand and Deliver!!! His like a beer bellied football hooligan!

  • is it robbie williams version thats on fifa street 2 or is it orignal.???

  • Ant Music is supposed to be a call to arms... a call to a 'new romantic' revolution that died as soon as hard core punk hit the scene.

    This version (of what I personally consider to be the most underrated pop song of all time) is just embarrassing. It's everything a cover shouldn't be: uninspired and copycat. Some things should be considered sacred.

  • like all things Robbie.........SUCKS!!!!!

  • I know he's just having fun and all . . .but this is just a cross between Axl Rose and some shitty football anthem. I knew he was a turdhead.

  • what the hell

    Robbie is so wierd

    he cant even think of his one songs to play so he steals adams

  • well this is pretty dire.i seen adam twice live and robby 3 times and think to myself robbie would have dun a much better job of this if he had just copied the original properly like with his swing stuff.oh deary deary me

  • what a wanker RW is, this is pure murder

  • ...the more i listen the worse it gets.....

  • Crap. Leave other peoples songs alone e.g. This one, Rollin Limp Bizkit, Queen We are the Champs. Stick to what your good at.

  • Drinking and drug taking

  • To be honest this song is kinda lame, even the original

  • But then, so are you. Anyone one with taste for music that  stands the test of time will appreciate this song. Unfortunately, that aint you. Nuff Said.

  • shit

  • robbie should stick to his own stuff

  • Who the hell is Robbie Williams and why is he ruining Adam's song???

  • Douche bag. Dont like that flavour

  • Crap.

  • Pretty fucking shit.

    No, Not pretty actually.

    It shite, utter fucking shite.

  • i just stumbled across this shit cover looking for the chavs version. atleast the chavs done the song justice. robbie is a talentless cunt and he can fuck of and die

  • lol looks like a UK backstreet boy.

    how dare he molest ant's song like this!

  • A largely talentless cunt. Devoid of original ideas, he makes a fortune by being very averagely talented but having the conscience of a T.Blair.

    If you would like his dick up you, then just accept that you seek elevation of your genetic poverty.

    I could have let it go if he hadn't drifted into covering the sacrosanct...the cunt...

  • This is one of my favourite songs...

    and this is not the right feeling for singing it.

    Don't relax Robbie, keep it real!!!

  • ok psj it was guy CHAMBERS not guy ritchie get ur facts straight tosser

    solo career flopped? knebworth 3 nights 125,000 people millionss of records sold i think ur just jealous and need a hobby besides wanking.

  • Why is everyone being so horrid to him, hate this cover, but no disrespects to him.

  • NOOOOOO

  • what a wanker.

  • well done robbie thts unuver classic you wrecked this an lola by the kinks wot are you playin at?

  • you are bang on lukeydoeslikey...blobby has been getting away with murder for years....he has got no talant..just a pie eating wanker

  • fantastic video!

  • robbie you fuckin twat

  • what the fuck is this wash up donkey playing at..just leave top music alone robbie twat williams...

  • lol :)

  • Adam of adam and the ants was a bigger deal than robbie

  • Ok, I agree that Adam Ant's version is without a doubt much better, but how awesome is it that a fairly big deal singer is doing a cover of this song??

    Gotta give him props for that.

  • Give him props ? Why ? For ruining an 80's classic ? Robbies useless, with a song writer like Guy Ritchie he releases 'okay' songs, without him hes proved hes just nothing. He only wants to get back to Take That because his solo careers totally flopped

  • im sorry but youre just jelouse because robbie is a much much better singer :)

  • Are you kidding? Robbie Williams doesn't have a "bad" voice, per se, but it's unrecognizable. It's not unique. It's...boring. When you hear Adam Ant's voice, you KNOW it's him.

    I applaud Robbie's attempt at this cover. But OH MY GOD is it awful.

    Terrible. F.

  • Robbie's a better singer than Adam? Some Peroxide and a few Q-Tips might help your hearing. Wow!

  • @theghostnostics Bollocks is he!

  • @theghostnostics Yea but it's the way Robbie sings it... Adam sang it in a much better way

  • horrible cover

  • I didn't even know that Robbie Williams did a cover of this song ! Wether it's good or not, I can't say but at least someone in the "music industry" reminded of Adam & his ants and it's a nice tribute !

  • the correct sentiment

  • The reason it's called Ant music it's beacsue the singer is called Adam ANT and the group Adam & the ANTS!

    Sorry, but this is a *big* No No!

  • really? :(

  • FUCK...THIS IS SHIT....ONLY ADAM CAN SING THIS SONG GReAT....

  • yep

  • the original is so much better, but i appreciate Robbie for covering a song of my beloved adam ant. thanks robbie!!!

  • The reason Robbie Williams never made it in the U.S.A. he sucks shit!!! Robbie ruins another good song!!!!!!!!

  • Wow! Great cover Robbie!

  • This is pretty cool!

  • He's keeping the Ants music alive and bringing it to another generation. Fair play to Robbie.

  • I agree. No where near as good as the original, but hopefully young en's will like it.

  • respect been a fan of adam for 30 years robbie loves adam ant well done robbie

  • that SUCKKKKED only adam ant sod ever do that song

  • Woo! Nice one Robbie!

    Sounds pretty cool when it's slow.

  • Good cover Robbie

  • WOW i love robbie and i love him singing this great!!
