14 comments so far (post your own) Adam Ant & the Ants will be inducted into the RRHOF one day because they(e y)created an incredibly unique sound like the RRHOF The Doors which has never been duplicated. Posted by KING on Thursday, 01/30/2014 @ 11:33am |
KING, you are smoking the CHRONIC if you think Adam Ant & the Ants (or without the Ants) will ever be inducted into the Hall. Posted by Paul in KY on Thursday, 01/30/2014 @ 15:56pm |
Very overdue that Adam Ant be inducted into the R&R Hall of Fame. Pioneer in music video phenomenon, and had unique stage and costume style later ripped off by Michael Jackson. Marc Pirone should stand with Adam. "Strip" and other songs - very clever with "round" singing and choruses. Who else was doing that in the 80'? Posted by Emily Cook on Sunday, 02/2/2014 @ 20:15pm |
Right Emily & Karen. Adam Ant deserves induction RRHOF.Has sold over 40 million units & crafted.20+ hits. Like Jim Morrison & The Doors,Adam Ant & the Ants created a unique sound.That's innovation. Posted by KING on Monday, 02/17/2014 @ 22:21pm |
KING. Read carefully. Not. Going. To. Happen. Posted by Dezmond on Tuesday, 02/18/2014 @ 01:25am |
More influential would be music that anyone gives a crap about. Posted by Paul in KY on Tuesday, 02/18/2014 @ 09:51am |
Influencing "clothing style" means absolutely nothing towards Rock Hall worthiness. Adam Ant has pretty much no name recognition in the U.S. He may have been bigger in the UK, but ask Cliff Richard and Status Quo how well being huge in the UK but not the US has gone for them in terms of getting in the Hall.

Adam Ant is a unique artist. I watched some of his songs on You Tube. They were very good but not as great as I remembered. Only 7 then in his heyday. Posted by KING on Friday, 02/21/2014 @ 18:19pm |
I dont feel rock musicians who personally detest the u.s.a. and spits on american citizens just because they are americans should be put in any hall of fame. The mans whole personal hatred towards the u.s. is completely unfounded. We have not done any hating in return of our own towards great britain but it is high time that we have.

Adam Ant was influential as far as punk rock music Posted by Bonnie Price on Thursday, 02/21/2019 @ 14:37pm |
I feel that Adam Ant with the Ants should be inducted into the RRHOfFame. He had a style and uniqueness that others never achieved. The metal acts get in. The rappers get in. He should be given this honor as well.E Posted by Vicki Gretzky on Saturday, 11/5/2022 @ 23:47pm |
Anyone who lived in the 1980s as a teenager knows Adam Ant and Adam and The Ants. PERIOD!! He danced his way through an early economic recession in the early 80s. He has a DANDY style about himself as he uses a mirror to rob you but not a bullet or a knife. He was the first MTV GUEST DJ. Heck, his full knighted armor is what I remember when I first watched MTV IN 1981! His videos was the spark MTV needed and certainly what Rock and Roll needed. He destroyed The UK and he sold everywhere in the USA. He developed Ant Music! He ruled Sothern California. He was famous 106.7 KROQ. Good friends with DJ Richard Blade. Ever since Dirk Wears White Sox he has been rocking ever since! I have seen Katy Perry mimic some of his dress styles in her videos. I've seen NO DOUBT and Gwen Stefani cover the Song Stand and Deliver. Michael Jackson flew Adam to Los Angeles to get some clothing ideas. Adam was a rebel. A PIRATE. A stunt man jumping through glass. He was your Prince Charming. And he had a bunch of great songs, face painted of course while bringing THE FAMILY out of you as you sang KINGS OF THE WILD FRONTIER and DOG EAT DOG. An art student, and a work-a-alholic, he sold tens of millions of records. Yes,, Adam, you deserve to be in n the Rock and Roll Hall of fame. Posted by Neil Smith on Sunday, 11/27/2022 @ 06:22am |
