Adam and the Ants - Stand and Deliver
(www.youtube.com)
Excellent choice.
I love it.
Story is that Malcolm McLaren suggested Adam and the Ants to find inspiration in the Burundi Beat he knew from this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8ba0gwBmUU
Then he stole the band to form another kind of pirate band featuring the same rhythms: Bow Wow Wow

Jam out to 80's music! Post some music and let's talk about it.
Rules
- All aspects of the LW TOS apply.
- Be constructive and don't gatekeep. People have different tastes in music; deal with it.
- If the source is YouTube, use the actual YouTube URL and not some random Invidious/Piped link. This prevents dead links as those go on/offline or break due to Google changes while also letting people's browser plugins, Lemmy clients, etc automatically re-write those to their preferred instances. Feel free to put alternate links in the post body, though.
- Submissions must be from the 80s (1980 - 1989) based on either recorded or release date. e.g. if it was recorded in 1989 but released in 1990, we're not going to split hairs over that; post away. Covers made in the 80s of older music is absolutely allowed and encouraged.
Posting Guidelines / Suggestions
- The preferred title format is
Artist - Song Name [YEAR] - If a song has a particular meaning or evokes a pleasant memory for you, feel free to share your story with it.
If you have other suggestions that would help grow the community and/or foster discussion, please feel free to share.
