Happy birthday to Adam Ant. Here's hoping you can cope with it, good sir.

Meanwhile, here's a crazy Adam Ant comic in some foreign language. Great art on it, though. I would totally buy this comic.

Man, packed up in a box in TN I have a TON of Star Hits and Smash Hits magazines from the 80s... Thompson Twins, Adam Ant, DURAN DURAN, Limahl, Flock of Seagulls, and others within those pages. I've been dying to get home and go through them, giggling at my teenager years. I've been wondering how much they'd sell for on ebay, though I'm not really sure I could part with them.

God, they'd probably be worth a mint. I don't have my giant box of Duran Duran and Adam Ant posters (many from Star Hits and Smash Hits, but also from Bop, Tiger Beat, etc.) anymore, more's the pity. Lost it in one of my many moves. I think I have a couple of ancient Duran Duran posters left in storage, but I'm not sure anymore.

Oh man...the past lives of Adam Ant! His awesomeness traverses time and space! We've seen the evidence in TWO LANGUAGES!!

Hell yeah! So rad!

Birthday? He looks so young....

*sigh* God, how I envy that.

[doronjosama.livejournal.com]

He's about 52 now, which isn't that young really. He has held up okay, though he's completely bald now. ^_^;

[cudjo-dog.livejournal.com]

All the more reason to be envious. Looking at him, I'd say he was only in his mid 30s.

I'm tellin' you, Sofia Coppola is obviously a big Adam Ant fan. She has to be!

*dies laughing* part of that joke I'm missing...but what I understand is hilarious.

Woooo.

Here are some pages in English: http://www.geocities.com/antlib12/tops1.html

I would totally buy this, too.

[doronjosama.livejournal.com]

Yay! English! Wow, it's kinda cheesy. But I want it anyway. ^_^

[newwavezombie.livejournal.com]

That's so awesome. SO. awesome!

[doronjosama.livejournal.com]

Isn't is great? The art is rad! They really made him look fantastic.

So I unplugged the jukebox, and did us all a favour! Aa-oo-our!!

AH! You made me download Antmusic off iTunes!

Okay, true confessions time! Back during the 80s, didja wanna DATE Adam Ant or did you want to BE Adam Ant? :D

[doronjosama.livejournal.com]

BOTH! I wanted to both date him and be him. Which is kinda creepy, I guess. I really thought those "Ant-Girls" in the "Goody Two Shoes" video were awesome and I was sure he must have dated one of them. ^_^

[dee-monster.livejournal.com]

Creepy-- no way, me too! But either way the leather pants were essential, right? :D
