Song of the Day: 'Antmusic' by Adam and the Ants


Adam Ant had a handful of memorable songs back in the '80s, but none more so than "Antmusic," the third single off the Ants' album "Kings of the Wild Frontier." Reuters reports that the British singer/songwriter left the music scene in 1995 to raise his daughter -- and in and out of psychiatric care with bipolar disorder -- before slowly re-emerging with concerts leading to the release this year of his first album in 18 years. (My friend Mark saw Ant perform in Detroit recently and said he was in fine form.)

It pisses me off every time they play Goody two-shoes mostly because I loved Ant Music so much more and they never play it.

I still play his solo from 97 (?) all the time.
