Nov 18, 2008 - you're rich enough to have a record collection. i bring my bazooka out for inspection!

Nov 18, 2008 - Lets see... I have "Who's Next" on LP, Quad LP, 8 track, cassette and CD. Lets say at an average of $7 usd, that comes to $35 for one album. Screw the record industry, record all you can from the radio!! Bow Wow Wow have obviously known this for 25+ years!

Nov 18, 2008 - Should be an anthem for the torrent generation lol.
murcoil Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - you're kidding, right? Malcolm McLaren stole all the original Ants to form this band, and then Adam Ant had to try to recreate this sound on his own with all new people. As for the pirate look, well, that should be obvious.

Nov 18, 2008 - Anybody have the last 30 seconds of this video? It seems to have been lost forever - quite a shame.

Nov 18, 2008 - This was the big issue in the music industry back then, long before downloading.

Nov 18, 2008 - they just never happened,adams ants blew them away.

Nov 18, 2008 - But didn't he create the Adam and the Ants band to begin with? There must have been a reason the "Ants" went along with Malcolm's "seizure" of the three (fantastic!) musicians and teamed Annabella up with them.. do you know? I am very curious about this. A long-time fan but never knew just why the "Ants" agreeably left Adam and formed Bow Wow Wow under Malcolm's tutelage.
ottowes Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - According to Wikipedia, Malcolm had the idea to revamp the band, preferring to take Matthew, Leigh and Dave, leaving Adam behind. His friend heard Annabella singing Stevie Wonder music whilst she worked-and signed her fast! Perhaps Adam's musicianship was not of the same ilk as the rest of the band-or just purely a business move-female lead singers were new and different, hence a new sound. They were really so great! The pirate look came from Malcolm and Viv Westwood's boutique, SEX.

Nov 18, 2008 - I heard Adam Ant started the pirate thing when he has was forced to wear an eyepatch. He had contracted pink eye from exposure to gobbing, so he took it even further...

Nov 18, 2008 - Are you fucking kidding me? this has got to be the worst song on the planet, and i know you'll say why watch it then, its to see if any one else liked this piece of shit that someone has attempted to call music. Peace out!!!

Nov 18, 2008 - BWW into Rock Hall of Fame. Besides the awesome sound, controversy abounded; stealing music (just taping music to casettes hehe)Most don't know they single handedly turned the US music industry upside down 'cos their stuff was on early cable music when basicaly it went only to kids in the sticks. teenage boys across rural america start buying BWW records, sometimes just for the cover, and LA/NY mogals can't figure out why BWW is #1 seller in Fargo!! 2 years later MTV went corporate
JakobZetterstrom Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - Cool... and this song formed Adam & the Ants as we (well some of us) know them... after Adam and Marco P had gained access to the studio and "borrowed" the demo tapes of it to find out what Malcolm and the ex-Ants were doing... and decided that what they were doing was absolutely bloody brilliant.
svenroser Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - So cool! I remember I didn´t like this at the time,but I´m ashamed for doing so now!Very controversial indeed!You might wonder why a record company decided to release this in the 1st place.Can you imagine someone singing something like cd-r 650,cd-r 800,mp 3,mp 4 bluetooth,these days?The record companies would rip you to shreds!
therealsoulproduct Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - Such a great band with such an amazing sound. They really didn't sound like anyone else (besides Adam) before OR since. For real, how many bands today sound like BWW? Exactly.
abbafan50986 Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - Great song, but the video seems like less of a music video, and more of a cassette commercial.
