[marimaikku1]

i just been diagnosed with brain cancer today and im fukin pissed off they give 8 months and i live in finland so i banged on the ants jolly roger and ant rap it aint no cure but it makes me feel better.

[curvalecce]

Still rocks after all these years!



[cabinetmaker2006]

Marco Merrick, Terry Lee, Gary Tibbs and yours truly! Love it

[TottinghamHotpants]

He forgot the Mucky Midlands.

[xxblackmagnoliaxx13]

Adam ant... hot!!

[lesterroberts1]

Take it E -Motion got their Naughty North Sexy South from Adam Ant.

[zaynzaynzayn]

fun as hell still

[QueenoftheMods11]

love adam and the ants soooo much

[ofirharlev]

am i the only one who thinks this is an abomination?!?!? O_O

[ColourOfSpring]

I love Adam and his Ants but this song is just awful, frankly.

[apeckster90]

It's still fun after all this time...

[ChazStrummer]

Ant Rap-ture?

[PepsiBoy3000]

Isn't this song basically the Ants saying that all of them sing, but Adam gets all the credit? Not exactly a hidden message. We're all singing. I have the mouth....

[leahmariexx]

i loved this when i was 14, i was a twat when i was 14...

[nickrayrutter]

Terrible.

[joidivision]

This was the very first Adam Ant video I saw waaaay back when I got MTV in 1982. I still LOVE IT!

[Sashphoenix]

@diseym I'm afraid he most certainly was a cunt, based on the time I met him in the mid 80s. He wore sunglasses at night, that enough for ya? Lol!

[diseym]

@Sashphoenix

sounds like he's a tool i remember reading an interview that adam ant done and he said that he did not like gary tibbs when the ants split was glad to see the back of him.

[AnimesXD1000]

lol?

[JayKay62969]

Uhhhh.... I have this album. God, that just made me feel old!!

[Marikay4]

This is just brilliant. I just love the humor. Like everyone has been saying, it's still awesome 20 something years down the road.

[PharmacyBassist]

@Marikay4 - Uhem, it is 30 years in 2012!  His stuff (with and without the Ants) has really held up great.

[Marikay4]

@PharmacyBassist well given that it is still 2010, "20 something years" seems to still be an acturate discription....

But yes i agree, it is still great now.

[stratcat200]

brill drum track , way ahead of there time

[glock858]

still listening till this day to adam ....28 years later shit never gets old....

[leezothekidd]

haha im 24 and grew up listening to adam and the ants and my old man used to listen to them.....its stuck ever since....prob being my mother listened to belinda carlisle and so has that :P

[whyteay]

from Lahndahn, as that was so far as I know where they were from.

[jackiechampion]

After they say their names they say "In the naughty North and in the sexy South" but if you look closely the guy in the front on the left (Marco) is saying "NORF" and "SOUF". It's great! I don't know what regional/social class dialect that is, but I meet a lot of Brits who talk like that.

[damedavid]

I LOVED Adam way beyond when it was cool. I'm loyal like that. And this is one of my favourite videos of his.

[plunkza]

Christ he was a good-looking man.

[profquatermass]

Why oh why can't we buy these tracks on DVD?

[profquatermass]

Gotta Love Lulu!

[xTkAx]

1:28

[xTkAx]

This video is awsome, i always loved it on the album.. i was about 7-8, hardly ever saw the videos, but played the tape so many times.. adam and the ants are awesome!!!!

[parfum808]

the man was - and is - a god. we still love you adam xx

[ardalsgirl]

*sigh* My knight in shining amor. :)

[LordRuehl]

I used to think that when they said "I'm standin' here with my four men" that they were saying "I'm standin' here with a mouth full of mayonnaise." I thought to myself, 'that can't be right' so I finally looked up the lyrics. hehe

[ilovejudyandmargaret]

Um yes!

[godofslumber]

Sheer brilliance-

[LackOfColourr]

bloody love Adam Ant :)

[malicea4thought]

I once read they used over 200 different sounds for each concert. Not just instruments, but percussion instruments, etc.

Yes, Adam is incredibly talented. His approach to music is incredibly unconventional. Only he could pull this stuff off. I have never seen anybody do a good cover of Adam, but I've seen a lot of people try.

[thirdpirate]

Shame as not generally not many have a good word for this song.

I love it. It must be the first rap song I ever heard (on the Prince Charming LP) in 81. I was 6 at the time.

I don't think it's anywhere near as bad as people make out. It's got a hell of a good breakbeat behind it for a start! And didn't they have 2 drummers? That must be why then the drums are so loud!

This is a good vid too. Adam Ant had massive talent - one of the most creative artists of the 80's by a country mile.

[Bizarronumber4]

I remember this song and video clip from 1982. Those were the days!

[MrTvfreak2008]

this is a nightmare to do on a karaoke.

[malicea4thought]

Really, how do you find 4 other guys who not only know the song but who can sing at the right time.

[davizm]

I bet~

[downhillspill]

is it lulu in this vid?

[xxxgraemexxx67]

yep thats Lulu

[bartlettandbosc]

yes. and Diana Dores on Prince Charming. I guess Adam was on a roll at this point. Lulu's still a fox. Even at 76.

[lsmpbc]

yup and farah fawcett at the beginning

[MissViv]

um no

[bagbahbag]

I love Adam and the Ants, but this video makes no fucking sense.

[adzy216]

"Put some wax on the tracks and slide on outa here". Excellent!

[marehtseira]

Yeah, I like a lot of other Ants songs better, but it is funny and interesting in retrospect that they had/have a rap style song.

BTW, other than Adam, Terry Lee looks like he is the best dancer.

[nickbaldeagle01]

Is that former Miss World Mary Stavin? Didn't George Best once date her?

[matelot95]

@nickbaldeagle01 it is indeed and yes he did

[nickbaldeagle01]

@matelot95 She was in 2 James Bond films too.

[paul20motorbikes]

F**k they were good. Hated this track when released but listening to it now....well....fantastic. The Ants ruled....and still do for me....

[FaceInTheRain]

I always loved the drums on this track too. The Ants never got enough credit for being good musicians.

[d1sintegration]

i love adam and the ants but 'ant rap' was somewhat misguided (:

[missoctober77]

I love how almost all of their videos have a history theme, and humour.

[CherryPieVampSparkle]

I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!! ADAM ANT ROCKS!

[UltimateVenom]

i actually hate adam and the ants' videos.

but i love their image [in pictures] and their music.

weird.

i like to think of them as post-punk with a crazy twist :)

[sidngra]

this is very nostalgic

[caseyforever]

i like the big drum jam in the back. not bad. well yeah the rap is silly but it's good spirited hahahah.

[moonboots69]

Lu Lu gets better with age.

she appears to grow younger.. even today she's a phoar !!!

[AnythingBut1966]

As a courier,she asked me for directions in the kings road about 15 years ago,could actually tell you where she lives in W11 too,lol

[moonboots69]

is it just me.. or does she just never seem to age ??

yes pls, PM me her address ;-)

[AnythingBut1966]

Personally,the time holly willoughby answered her door in a satin dresingown was better :).

[nickbaldeagle01]

@AnythingBut1966 I used to deliver Umbro sports gear to Peter Schmeichel and Paul Scholes.

[poohbean]

I love Adam but god I hated these cheesy videos and this song. Check out the live version of this on youtube from the prince charming tour - addictive and much better.

Never thought I'd like this song but listen to the live version often. (No offense to the poster!)

[MacArthurPiper]

AnythingBut1966

You're so right!!

So much better then the other one I found on You Tube.

This one is in sync!!!

Thanks for posting : )

[amyjess2006]

lol how weird was that video?! gotta love the 80's though, and of course Adam and his Ants :D zzz

[ROBOgirlie]

3:16 is SO beautiful!!!!!!!!! I paused it, cropped all the other stuff off the page, and printed it so I can hang it in my locker at school! I love it. I've done that with John Taylor's pic earlier this year, but this one just takes the cake.

[Lv365]

THANK YOU, AnythingBut1966, for posting this in sync.

Loving it................

[theresasjostedt]

I love this song! It' so cool!

[Sashphoenix]

I met Gary Tibbs in 1984. I therefore claim the authority to change the lyrics of this song to the following:

*Marco, Merrick, Terry Lee, Gary Tibbs is a big cunty*.

[diseym]

@Sashphoenix

is he (gary tibbs) realy a cunt lol probably up himself Terry lee's supposed to be a nice guy

[r7coo]

The drums on this track are absolutely incredible, I love this track, 83 wasn't it ..?

[FaceInTheRain]

1981

[hollystar5894]

i love adam ant

[flipponzin24]

Awesome song! Adam Ant, either band or solo, rocks...

[Hippy35]

In the naughty northe and in the sexy south....

Your a star mate. Cheers for the heads up ;^)

[eddieg671]

!!!!Marco,Merrick,Terry Lee,Garry Tibbs and yours truly!!!!

[Neoyugi]

fark is this the first rap song?

[sinnednosbig]

No but it was Adam & the Ants Swansong
