I agree in regards to recognition, been listening to his eighties hey day albums and they just blasts of exuberance , hooks and pop innovation Dirty Beast off that last album showed as well Ant can do subtle and wistful too
My mum and uncle used to love him when they were growing up. I had always liked the songs I heard, but I recently have took the deep dive…. And I’m honestly blown away. The fact that his sings aren’t still on radio rotation upsets me. I’ve got all my mums old records though, so I can’t wait to dig out the original 7’s😀
Adam Ant / Adam and the Ants wasn't an 80s product. The man is timeless. He just happened to be in the 80s when he brought about his out-of-this-world brilliancy! But he could have done it any time, regardless of his year of birth. The man is a timeless genius.
I'm from Brazil, and I discovered Adam and The Ants around 2008 or 2009, when I heard Ant Music. I never thought it was a song made in the early 80s. I got hooked on that song and when I discovered the other songs by Adam Ant I was amazed wondering how I had never heard of this artist before. MTV in Brasil never showed anything about him and never showed any video of him. This man is a genius in my opinion and his work is indescribable. Very underestimated by the mainstream media, but I am happy to see that he is still recognized by people today.
I!Agree With All Of You About ADAM ANT 🐜 LookSo SEXY And His Band Members Are SO Cool 😎💯%!THOSE Singing Vocals Are SO SEXY Too 😍 😉 ❤ 😘 👌 💕 😍 😉 ❤ 😘 👌 💕!
Adam was my first teen idol. Rediscovering him by the way he speaks out about his bipolar condition is special to me. After all these years, my likewise attraction to the flamboyant appears to connect me to him in more than just the external level. Very grateful for it.
Adam is such a beautiful creature and intelligent, romantic visionary. I love him. This is one of the absolute best interviews I've seen with him. Adam you are the best!!!
ADAM IS SUCH A HUMBLE/COOL GUY-LOVED SEEING HIM & HIS BAND ON TV AS A KID THE MUSIC & ENERGY WERE AMAZING-GLAD HE'S STILL DOING IT & COMES ACROSS HAPPY-GOOD INTERVIEW THAT NICE 1 X X
The first album I bought with my own money was Prince Charming when I was 10. I got that and a Kings of the Wild Fronteir t-shirt from the record shop for a tenner. Then wandered around with a white stripe on my face for a few months while my parents worried about me getting beaten up for wearing makeup. Thanks for this. It was a wonderful interview (again) and I'm quite taken back to a time I'd near;y forgotten.
Adam is a hugely unique & underated musical artist, he seems like a chap who battles his demons. He has given me many happy memories, I wish him all the luck on lives often difficult journey. ❤️
Ive always been a huge fan of Adam Ant. He's a romantic at heart,a beautiful man and artist. As an American I've never been familiar with John Doran. He is a brilliant interviewer.
John Doran is an incredible personality. Good questions, understands he’s not the focus of the interview and understands his role, and is always witty and charming
What an incredible talent, putting such energy into all of his performances, an absolute original, who always exudes smoldering sexuality. They just don't make them like that anymore.
they told us to do a practice timed write today in English and the promt was "if you could go back to any time in history, where would you go and what would you see?" guess what i wrote about. lol
First record I ever got in England when I was 11 was Prince Charming. I would listen to it over and over again and was fascinated by the music in it... still am :-)
What a refreshingly humble but awesome interview! A fan of Adam since I was a 9 year old wanna be punk to now a balder, fatter & older 49 year old 😂 AM4SP ✊
I had that poster in my room back in 81/82 Adam and the Ants were hot property back then in Australia 🇦🇺. God I was only 11 0r 12 . Good to see he’s still going ok.
Fabulous interview with one of my heroes, you are obviously good at making Adam feel relaxed and happy to chat. He is a style icon, a true artist. I have fond memories of the first Ants gig I saw in Leeds 1981 :)
Seen adam live 6 times since 2013 going to see him again march 2nd 2022 leicester de mont fort hall got 75 items in my collection had a few poster I did not keep one day I will get them had stand deliver poster at the time still got 75 time singles box set books cds dvd videos teeshirts and I've got 250 items in my sex pistols collection as well as 300 other singles genres and 300 albums I said in 1985 that I loved afam ant in a French lesson everyone laughed and the teacher now the joke is on adam ant still going strong clever guy respect
it's just a suit, did we forget the point of the interview was to indulge our self's with asked questions to educate us to information from the past, experiences and new information? not a fucking critique on fashion.
Only crossed paths once with him, small cheap restaurant near the British Museum, about '78, did a good pizza with chips, he said no to the chips. Had a dumb waiter. Only two people in there.
Look-Look-Lookin’ magazine? That was thee mag as a lad growing up in UK. That and Razzle - It’s kinky it’s naughty and it’s only one pound forty. Great days.
