Adam Ant

Before I discovered Prince there was Adam Ant. To this day Adam Ant is my second favorite artist. Go to YouTube and serch for Adam and the ants live in Tokyo part xv. Physical
You might be surprised at how Adam and Prince are alike as showman. Plus you have to love the two drum players. Adam Ant was ahead of his time. Let me know what you think.

I love James. And no one can touch Prince. But other than Prince I think Adam Ant and Jack White are my other favorite artists. Just give Adam a listen. That's all I'm saying.

Did you even watch the video? Trust me I'm the biggest Prince fan. When people ask me what kind of music I listen to. I say Prince. I love the face they make. They just don't understand.

No one can make music like Prince. He is a modern day Mozart. That is not where this post was going.

Well all I can say is you missed a legend before his time.

Hello... I'm Come funkateer 'Danceelectric'

I can't think of anything bad to say about Adam Ant...I love the songs I know...

Adam Ant asked what was possibly the most important question of all time:
Don't drink, don't smoke, what do you do?

I just love Marco Peroni's guitar.. and their use of kind of Indian tribe drums.

"Stand And Deliver" is one of the greatest 80's singles, imo.

Well I posted this in the prince thread because I came here everyday and read everyones posts. Today I saw an Adam ant video that reminded me of prince. Thought I would share the video and see what you guys thought. That's it.

the 80's were decadent, the boys in an uberswirl of flowers, lingerie, makeup & masks..the epitome of masculinity & debauched fantasies

and also men wearing ladies underwear! dont forget that, especially those silky French knickers.

I notice the simliarities with him and Prince back in the 80s. Him and Marco wrote some fine music. Ant Rap is a badass tune
And the fact he use to go out with Vanity and wrote a tune for her, u can see the camparsions clearly. His new girlfriend(well the one i saw with him in 2008) looked quite similar to Vanity.
The man was hot back the day.

I hate to burst your bubble, but have you seen what he looks like now, nothing like Prince. His songs are ok I guess, but he does not have the showmanship of people like Prince, JB, Madonna or MJ.

Saw vid from OP, quite a good show (shitty song). The similarities to P in dancing and look are coz both modelled their early selves on Bowie+Jagger + the post-pubk/new wave thing. Also, AA was probably studying P.
I just discovered he had a late album produced by Andre C - check out Room at the Top, reminds me of Fruit at the Bottom!!!

This post please

he was sectioned few years back I recall.....threw a nut in a pub or something.
