Adam Ant

[Yu Yu Hakusho!]

No...not the cartoon silly! The singer who went solo....
If anyone can recall when they first joined up...
1979....Stuart Goddard and a few friends, joined up and created Adam and the Ants. I just love them!
I was going through some of my dad's CD's from the 80's (he's a big 80's music fan, mostly with New Wave and Pop and Punk) and I saw this Adam Ant album. It has some GREAT songs on it.
Amazingly, as I started listening to it and staring at the pictures of Adam Ant (who is amazingly handsome!! ^^;) I knew a bunch of the songs, espically one I remember from when I was a kid.
I've probably listened to the song at least 80 times and I am not joking. I just love it. It's called "Antmusic" and it has a really great sound, great beat, and good lyrics.
If anyone can recall the song, "Viva La Rock" Adam Ant made that one.
"Goody Two Shoes" is also another Ant song.
Actually, Adam Ant went solo in 83' because of lack on onstage attention and he started creating some of his best songs when he went solo.
Just wanted to bring this up since I never see anyone talk about any singers/artists here, espically from the 80's.
Call me crazy, but I love 80's music. I'm not even from that time and I love that music. I've been getting so tired of my Japanese CD's so it's about time I listened to something in English!

Just a quick question: Who's your favorite 80's singer/band?
I like a lot of them, but adding up to my current obsession and crush, my favorite is Adam Ant for the time being!

Also, if you have no idea who he is and have never head any of his songs and want to listen to a bit of them, go to amazon.com and search for Adam Ant on all products and look at his CD's. There are a few song samples to listen to.

Correction: Sorry, the song I called "Viva La Rock" is mispelled. It's rightful name is "Vive Le Rock"

I thought the cartoon was called Atom Ant.

I'm not sure that many people here would know much about Adam Ant, but maybe I'll be surprised heh.

I like Adam Ant... Mostly for a few particular songs, Physical mainly (which was covered by NIN of course), and also Beat My Guest. I was never a huge fan, and I doubt I ever will be.

He used to be played every so often on an alternative station here in Chicago called Q101, but I've not listened to the radio in so long that I doubt he's ever on it anymore heh. Maybe the late night "classic alternative" stuff they play...

It is, but I have a few friends who get mixed up with both of the titles.

Adam ant is major old school and man was he cool. I used to love the guy! 80's music pretty much rules and has yet to be surpassed.

[Yu Yu Hakusho!]

Whaddya mean vegeta rocker?
I mean, 80's rocks and all, but what exactly do you mean?

And yes, he is cute!! ^^;

I'm listening to the "Adam Ant Antics in the Forbidden Zone" album right now. I was just listening to "Desprate but not Serious."

Anyway, I'm so glad to see Adam Ant fans out there and other 80's fans of music!

I'm just so tired of all my Japanese CD's and today's crap....

If any of you have something else to say about 80's go right ahead!!!
