I bought the album on vinyl in 1980, I was 15 & I played it so many times it drove my parents mad. I remember the gate fold cover & looking at the photos of Adam & desperately wanting to be as cool as he was. It is hard for kids now to understand the sheer impact this song had & how popular Adam & the Ants were. Like Star Wars in 77, you just don't see excitement about music & films like that anymore. It makes me sad for this generation, to never have experienced it.

I lived in a flat across from a music venue in Edinburgh, Scotland. Monday nights they had new upcoming live acts. You could tell how popular an act was by the size of the queue on a Monday night. The bus stop to my flat was two streets away. The night Adam & The Ants played (I'd never heard of them) the streets were literally packed! A normal 5-minute walk took 30mins to squeeze through the crowd, just awesome!

I remember when they came out on MTV - I was blown away by the music. The use of two drums, especially the deeper sounding drums like Native American drumming and the use of sticks. Bow Wow had something similar but not as melodic in my opinion. The people in the video reminds me of the people's reaction at this at first - like a "whaa?" type of music in a time when the "synth" new wave bands were popping out everywhere. A combination of Native American rhythms, pirate outfits, guitar chords that ring out for an extended time, a solo that's short and to the point and sounding like a 60's venture vibe - What can we say - a true original band that stands the test of time!

I would not regret that decision either. QGH was old by then and this was exciting and new. I still listen to both, as well as older and much newer exciting music. Artists always have a hook that draws us in and tickles the excitement centres of our brain. I have to admit that the older ones from 60's 70's and 80's give me more of a tingle than modern music but even recent stuff still has the ability to catch my interest. I just regret the fact that my attention has been caught by an algorithm or AI, or autotune. Obviously I'm a dumb human who reacts to a catchy meme, but the old catchy memes generated by talented humans still have the edge over modern interpretations of the old sound. Some of them aren't bad, and will probably infect my brain for the rest of my life, but, meh! they aren't the bangin' tunes of my adolescent years.

This rocks harder than most metal bands were doing at the time. And it's pure pop. Genius. You never get tired of this one ..even at 53 years young .

This was the very early era of music videos when directors didn't have a clue what they were supposed to be doing, nobody knew what a music video was "supposed" to look like, and budgets were low. The result is some of the most creative, artistic and fun videos of any era. 10 years later and they'd be spending a million dollars renting navy battleships to film Cher straddling on a gun.

I was captivated by the Burundi drum, by the image, and the video. I'd have been coming up on my 7th Birthday when i saw this. Shortly after my Birthday i got the album, and played it relentlessly. I've still got it tucked away safely. The Ants were my first band, and i'll love them if i live to be 100.

I'm so old , i forgot how great this band was ..

How many brilliant songs did Adam and the Ants bring out??

I remember getting this as a Christmas present in 1980, along with Rabbit by Chas and Dave and the Not The Nine-O'Clock News LP which I still have.

Best guitar solo ever. Short. Sweet. To the point. Super early in the song. In and out like a member of the SAS. Job done

Remember the first time I saw this and was like "now this is what I have been waiting for to hear!"

I was fortunate to see him twice at the beginning of his career in NYC. One show was outdoors and he and the band continued to play while it poured rain on the crowd. We were soaked but what a show!

Chesterette It bears mentioning that there were two major incarnations of this band, of which this is the second. The first line-up was more punk-oriented initially but there are only a few recordings and the line-up was fluid. Early tracks like Lou, Beat My Guest, Hapstead, Fat Fun and Lady have clear punk roots (though the messages depart from the standard decay/despair/rejection motifs of punk of the day) and the original recordings from Jubilee are also closer to punk, particularly Plastic Surgery (Deutscher Girl been sanitized on all subsequent releases), and not yet the eclectic fusion of visual and musical ideas that the band would adopt after getting dropped by their label prior to recording Dirk Wears White Sox. The Jubilee soundtrack, however, ended the band's support from the punk crowd who felt it was a betrayal of the punk ethos by Chelsea set dilettantes. Until then the band had some support from the punk scene, thanks in part to their collaboration and friendships with people like Jordan (and the crowd from Seditionaries), Siouxie Sioux, Sid Vicious, and Marco PIrroni (who would later join the band) and others. Malcolm McLaren didn't create Adam and the Ants, rather they hired him to manage the band later in October '79. He broke the band up in January '80 to create Bow Wow Wow and worked with Stuart and Marco to create the final incarnation of Adam and the Ants responsible for this song, and most of the songs people know as being from Adam and the Ants.

This song in particular is so completely original and unique and...well, fun.

First ever LP'S, kings of the wild frontier and prince charming. My mum and dad bought them for me when I was about 9 or 10, still got them, priceless

This would have been Johnny Depp if he did new wave in the '80s. I always thought Adam Ant and Billy Idol had the most handsome faces of singers back then. Wish it was still the 80's

I grew up loving this guy as my elder siblings indoctrinated me at a young age but what I realise now is just how original and pioneering this guy was British musicians were truly fearless innovators back in the day and successful with it that's probably why I will always love this era's influence and timelessness

You never get tired of this one ..even at 53 years young . It's been 35 years and I still love this man and his music.

Hello how are you doing,my name is Eric Moore how is the weather over there today

Have not watched this music video clip in fourty years!!

A teen heroe i'll never forget. I felt free each time I saw him . Love him and love those New wave, punkish years!

Total breath of fresh air when they came along. No one like them at the time. I loved them. Shame the blew their gig at the Live Aid concert. It was the beginning of the end for them.

Adam Ant is nothing short of amazing :)

Maynard Keenan brought me here. The 80's is by far levels and multitudes above the greatest creative experimental time in history.

Adam Ant was , and still is, a one off❤

One of my all time favorite songs

It still sounds so fresh ❤ a fan nearly 10 years later and I’m 22 found him originally at 12

Brilliant. I still play the drum intro with chop sticks at the restaurant, and everyone knows that beat. Timeless classic, still quality.

😂👏🏻. Love this comment. Brilliant. Will do the same next time I’m dining…

The drums are great they stand out in this song

They'll listing to this 1000 yrs from now!

Let's see, I saw Adam approximately 35 years ago in concert. To this day, I still have the pics I took of him and INXS which opened for him. I miss those days.

This is my favorite singer of all time I was a young girl listening to friend or foe on the beach out of a getto blaster with some friends. And this singer was so original and I loved his videos I saw him in person a couple of time met him at one of his concerts the best memories I have with his music

One of THEE COOLEST ALTERNATIVE SONGS of ALL TIME

Adam can move and dance. Love him and his music.

Thank you 70's and early 80's...thank you SO much. Glad I got to be there.

I must admit this song is really catchy. I'm only just coming back to Adam's music. I remember enjoying the likes of Stand and Deliver as a kid in the '80s.

Always an innovator. Always ahead of his time.

He has so much swag! This band was perfection!

I went to work on a government contract in Scotland(1981). The first bar I went into I got pulled downstairs into the club. This is what hit me😜. I was immediately shown how to do the "Ant" dance😎.

this song started my love for adam and the ants which still exists today i'm 60 something i never tire of hearing any adamant song. love to all ants.

WHAT A FUCKING TUNE!!!!!!!!

What a great song! An all-time classic.

For graduation, my Grandma bought all of this music for me ...4 cassettes at the time. Thank you , Gram

I remember seeing this video for the first time.. He was tapping on the floor with some drumsticks.. Cutest thing I'd ever seen in my life. Wow ❤

Certainly to me in the 80's Adam Ant was great...my friends made fun of me but I could not care less...it made me dance and smile :-) Still does
