Adam Ant interview | New Wave | Adam and the Ants | Afternoon plus | 1982

What so many people don’t realize is that Adam wrote his own songs with Marco, designed the sets of his live shows, designed his costumes, and that of the Ants as well, did his own make up (except for PC Revue and PC video), designed and storyboarded all his videos, designed his record sleeves and covers. The man is the epitome of a workaholic. Later, we would find out it was to keep the depression at bay. I just have so much respect for him. A true artist, who just happens to be devastatingly beautiful as well. Brilliant, mad genius ❤️

Back when even famous successful stars came across as real people and the interview was watchable....better times

Looking forward to seeing Adam Ant, again, this Friday in Detroit!!

What a gorgeous and intelligent man !!!! 😊

Speaks with such clarity and intelligence 👏

What a stunningly beautiful man and such grace. Reminding me of Cillian Murphy today, similar gentleness.

Amazingly talented, great musician......songwriter....singer.... Can't believe this interview was 42 years ago. I remember the summer of 1983, aged 12, watching the Prince Charming Review over and over, day after day. And it's still great

This guy....this guy, is so awesome. He was huge then. He's come through some dark times. He's a survivor and a success. His fans love him, I think he's awesome. The guy basically created his own genre of music.

Always been very well spoken and intelligent. Such a shame that he and Marco fell out a while back. Still listen to his music fairly often 40 years on

Gorgeous guy and so artistic - loved him xx

He is so gorgeous ❤️ I was only about 2yrs old but my cousins all loved him so much- posters etc! I can see why now I’m older!!

Perfect body, perfect face, great mind! I want to run my fingers thru that hair!!! My gosh, he was perfection! I hate that he struggled with bipolar all his life but I guess he wouldn't have made it without it. I hope he does well for the rest of his career, he's a likeable guy.

I'm currently reading his autobiography, and he had me laughing out loud almost from the first page! The fact that he managed to accomplish so much being bipolar is incredible; this guy didn't have an easy life!👍

Adam has talent and honed his craft. He didn't just come on stage and sing. He put on a production. Has a stage presence and a brilliant mind and business sense. I'm happy to see he's still touring today

Such an intelligent, articulate, charming and beautiful man

Brave of him to talk about his MH issues back in 82, it was nowhere near to being accepted or understood then

Love this man!!! ❤💛💜

Don’t you ever Don’t you ever Stop being dandy Showing me you’re handsome

Yes indeed, I could have watched this interview all night. Stuart aka Adam is so intelligent and so enjoyable to listen to on and off stage. So happy he is touring again and I hope to grab a show if he ever comes near Nashville or Chicago. Love em

Honesty is refreshing in this interview. Thanks for sharing.xx
