marco has to be one of the most underrated guitarists ever clean twang or mucky distortion, always playing something interesting

There's so many great ant songs , but this is one of the best

Yep. This has always been my favorite Adam Ant song. And there are a lot of great ones.

These guys were one of the few rare performers where their live versions actually shit on their recorded output.Not too many artists who can achieve that

Very true! (:

I'm 17 and I've loved them for years now. Adam Ant revolutionized New Wave and New Romantic, he's a genius, and his style is legendary.

Adam Ant is one of those performers that can sing like it is coming from the original studio track. From an 'Antist'

The Old Grey Whistle Test... I remember staying up late as a kid to catch this bitd. Pirroni... an old hand... FaB!!

He was, and still is, my first Prince Charming. This was such a creepy, fun song. A sci-fi soundtrack for the mind.

Started listening to this groove and both live and studio versions sound great! Love how he plays with his hair on the album cover! Makes me imagine the photographer tried to keep Adam still from being so antsy! ;)

The new Ant-Man and Wasp say hello.

Amazing to see someone 14 years old enjoying Adam Ant. I'm 39 now and when I was 13 I thought he was the best. I was all alone in that.

Spectacular all around! Unparalleled vocals, guitar, bass and drum lines. Thank you Adam.

My personal ant-them for my freshman year in college, 1981. Still love it!

He deserved the later commercial success but the early punk / post punk is truly great. This included.

+marc h Yeah dude, I'm here because I just found out that NIN's "Physical" was a Adam and the Ants cover.

Can't take my eyes off of him ! This and "never trust a man " are my favorites💙💜he's so stunningly handsome XO

Personal opinion: This is the best music video on KZread. A band who are just so tight, talented and in their prime. A joy to watch every time.

amazing!!!! i cant believe how good they are live..adams voice sounds even better than the studio stuff,its taken till im 33 years old to realise this. first album i ever bought at the age of 6 was kings. under rated band,but for me one of the best!!

Yeaaaaaah... I love Adam and his Ants... I love this since my childhood... I love Adam's mad look... really great... I love this song the most... ;)

"You gave her wings..??" "AND Blasters..."

Fantastic! So special the two- drum sound...and he is still keeping alive with great appearances

I'm hitting 40 and i would love to see the younger generations enjoying this great music that we listened to, er, about 25 years ago..........where has the time gone?

I'm 32 and I "grew up" with this music because my mam and dad loved the 80s. My daughter now gets to grow up with it. Let's see!

A new collection of creations from Adam would be something to anticipate! Hey, is it me, or is the UK simply awesome? Adam and the Ants, The Damned, WIRE, new stuff from people like the Horrors... Jeesh! Energy meets style and majesty. US can't compare.

100% perfection. Amazing

One of the best alt artists of all time. Hands (and all six legs) down!

Marco fantastic guitar playing also. What a recognizable guitar riff

Awesome, as tight as a drum and imho it's stood the test of time✌️👍😊

i just died in the 1st 17 seconds , adam come back your THE MAN

Marco- what a guitarist.

Kings of the Wild Frontier still one of the best Albums ever- i bought it aged 13 years in 1981-one of the best decisions i ever made

Excellent! I am an Argentine fan of Adam and the Ants since 1980, when I was 15 y.o. Great ADAM!!!!

Criminally under rated, seriously ❤

One of his coolest songs with killer guitar.

This is by far the best Adam and the Ants clip on youtube. They are definately in their prime here.

The best song ever... I love Adam And The Ants... and this is their best song... love it and Im listening to it really often from my original CD, which is the most precious to me from all of my music collection... I wish I could hear it live!!!

Another great song by the ants. ooohhh how I wish I was there at that eksact time...

Ant invasion top tune outstanding guitar

Antman and the wasp brought me here, but so did good classic rock music. But mainly the recent comic movie.

Two drums + three guitars. That's the ants invasion. Fantastic Marco Pirroni.

"You might not like us now, but you will" Indeed!

i saw this when it was first aired on the old grey whistle test great memories

One of the best live perfomances on posted on YT! love Marcos G'tar

Can't lie, i'm only 18 and I always listen to adam/ Joan Jett/ Bowie. Nothing of this generation really compares, in pop culture anyway.

He had so much energy the right look fantastic costume he didn't just stand there motionless like some so called rock stars of today

Oh that is effing heaven! Adam and Marco get out and do it again!!!

Awesome! Love this song and the whole Kings album. In fact, I like everything I've heard by them or Adam solo so far. I'm glad I found out about them because they're very original. Wish I'd lived in the '80s and actually got to live at the time of such great music and performers. Still great to have the music and such cool vids to watch! Love Adam & the Ants!

Every track indeed was totally original. No Oasis or Blur, Stones or Beatles comparisons to be made here. Nothing like it before or since. Genius.

saw adam in 95 in ne england he was fantastic

these were an excellent band and still sound great,

damn good music--still--after all these years!

This was taken from the Old Grey Whistle Test, a music show in the UK back in the 80's. It always puzzled me that the Ants never released this as a single!

I don't think there was any better song to include in the new Ant Man & Wasp trailer.

I love this more than 30 years now...wow :)

Brilliant saw them 1980

It's like SLAYER meets KILLING JOKE. Fantastic.

as awesome now as it was back in the day!!!

His music never diez!

This and Dog Eat Dog were two of the best that Adam and the Ants ever produced, imo. I'd rate "Kings of the Wild Frontier" as a close third.

So Clever, Been a fan since 1981, This proves they could do it live. Chris Hughes and Terry Lee are faultless, Amazing. Look up a docu called The Madness Of Prince Charming. Brilliant.

Bloody hell I remember watching this!! Yeah I think they did play Killer On The Home on the same show. Sheer briliance!!

Cut my teeth And my little black heart to this loved then and now . ❤

True Perfection, I was only about 10 or 11 when this was shown on tv but i was hooked and i'm still loving it all this time on..best times ever!!!

wow, bought back many memories, excellent version

I was a teenager in the '80's and I agree with you,I love anything by him-ants or solo. and kings has and will always be my fave album.(then prince charming!) only wish I would have had the pleasure to see him live! sigh!

the words, Pub, Kentish Town and Gun, spring to mind.

My favourite Ants track thisone!!!!

Marvel i Love you

Nice to see and hear a group that can actually play and sing live!

that guitar is unbelievably good , i beg u adam come back, you are beyond good your out of any league known to music,

Love this version !!

This is my fav Ant performance it's got it all. Great sound Great look Great image and Adam at his edgy finest ever. Fantastic.

incredible song.... Many Thanks from Florida!!!

Adam had problems. Guy was too intelligent in his spectrum of problems. Just got to say this was his greatest look.

is Adam Ant ....punk, new wave or alternative.....either way that rocked!!

I hadn't seen this one yet! *THANK YOU* for sharing this!

Love those looks he does at the camera, he has beautiful eyes so gorgeous

Positively brilliant!

remembering old and good times, thx!!

LOVE THIS!

This is bloody brilliant. Sounds like a cross between KILLING JOKE and SLAYER.

Awesome - What a legend - Bakerlite

And that children is called live music.

Adam ant is the best ever! So glad his song is in the new Ant Man and the Wasp trailer. I was wondering why none of his songs were in the first movie?

Nicholas Ball They guess they never considered it. The person who thought of adding this song to the trailer may not have been working on the first film as well.

The 80's are coming back in the States...lots of Adam fans in the US that are going to re-surface..this song is awesome...

Sabbath came first. Ants still rocked on this tune. My all time fave from them. The darkest heaviest tune they had imo.

An amazing live performance. X

2nd piece of "vinyl" I ever bought - "Kings of the Wild Frontier" - and still have it....brilliant band !

Exactly: UK. Most people in the US either never heard of them or only know "Goody Two Shoes."

I hear this music in the Outcast! #BR

Jesus... that was decades ago people that will never happen again i love adam and i love the ants every thing they ever released..i was young then and now i'm older things will never be the same again...fuck i miss it and i always will, i'm god so watch what you say...

OMFG this is FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!! I am 15 atm and i am in love with Adam and the Ants!!!! I always thought i was born in the wrong decade! If only i was born 20 years earlier i would have grown up when these guys where in biz and i might have been able to go seen one of their concerts! Its a big shame that they split but i see Adam seems to be doing fine on his own atm haha!

That's a massive plectrum Marco's using! :-o

Hell yeah!! I remember watching this with my parents going what the heck is this?? Killer In the Home followed and it was brilliant. Great post thanks for the memories!!
