"That's on account, honey, I'm gonna give you the balance later."

"Listen, you go in and lay one on Boris, you're going to get yourself arrested for assault."

"I ain't gonna lay one on him. I'm gonna kill him."

"I thought you Texans are supposed to be smart?"

"We are! And too trusting."

"And thick-skulled!"

Nah because I was just scrolling, looking for a new movie to watch and I came across this poster...

The photo was kind of small but I was like 'That kind of looks like Adam Ant, but nah it can't be. Surely I would have known if he was in a movie (Let alone a movie about a vampire) seen as I was so Obsessed with him.

So I kept scrolling, but it was bugging me so much that I went back up and search it AND IT IS ADAM ANT.

I screamed and yes, I will be watching this now because it has many good reviews on Letterboxd.

I'm also not going to watch the trailer, I want to go into it blind.

Adam Ant | Adam And The Ants | 1981

The definition of the New Romantic Movement, Glam Pop, and New Wave, Adam And The Ants dominated briefly in the early eighties. He used his music and the stage as a theatre, reinventing himself and creating fabulously over the top images wrapped up in one: pirate, highwayman, sexy romantic, with tribal tones, "heroic imagery, sexmusic and tribalism."

Let's talk about…

"STAND AND DELIVER"

🌟 "Stand and Deliver" is a song by British new wave band Adam and the Ants, released as the lead single from their third studio album, Prince Charming (1981). It was the band's first No. 1 hit in the UK. The phrase "stand and deliver — your money or your life", used in the lyrics, is commonly associated with highwaymen in 18th century England.

‘Adam already had this idea about a highwayman. He'd gone off in the kitchen to make some tea and by the time he'd come back I'd come up with the “galloping” verse. The verse is the same as the chorus, but there is a little descending bit which he came up with. And then there's the verse and different key for the guitar solo. Adam came up with the “Da diddley qa qa” lyric. He'd had that line knocking about for ages.'

-Marco Pirroni.

Adam picks up the conversation: 'Marco and I wrote the music together and I wrote the lyrics and top line. My inspiration for the song came from the idea of the heroic English antihero highwayman holding up a stagecoach, but stealing people's attention instead of their valuables.'

‘I was lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time.’ Adam explains.

‘A revolution took place in the early 80s. Music suddenly had to look as provocative as it sounded.’

-Adam Ant.

‘We wrote "Stand and Deliver" and Prince Charming at the same time,’ says Pirroni. ‘Before I even picked up the guitar, I knew they were going to be No.1. That wasn’t me being arrogant. In my head it was just a fact.’

🌟 Marco Pirroni recalls going round to Adam’s house in Kensington to write "Stand and Deliver".

🌟 "Stand and Deliver" earned Adam and Marco an Ivor Novello award in 1982. It is published by SONY/ATV Music Publishing and Universal Music Publishing.
