This still cracks me up, over 40 years after I first bought it.... "They're always called Dubois" .... just such a random lyric, and slotted in there perfectly :D

I knelt on mine in later years, accidentally, and after repeatedly being unable to obtain it on any compilations looked on Ebay. I got a copy, with original saucy back cover, for the starting bid price of 99p. Plus a further 99p for postage. I felt like I'd committed a crime 😂

I fell in love with Lady, the B-side, and still to this day all 44 years later I'll play it from time to time. Such a raw, but kick ass tune.

@spookybaba

@@barryarnold5391 Really!!!? Stood out in what way? I'd say it was one of his weakest B-sides. Compositionally, it sounds like a filler. But, if you like it. That's all that counts.

I remember this being on a free album called 'Fingers Off!' that came as part of the deal with a new pair of Levi's jeans. It wierded me right out as it was so radically different to the Kings of the Wild Frontier/ Prince Charming songs I was so used to as a 9/10 year old!

Don't remind me. I thrash myself regularly for the same crime. Hopefully time will heal us.

@switchbladeromance1466

But it back in Ebay 😁

@spookybaba

You'll get it for next to nothing, with the drawn saucy cover. B-side - Lady. The best of the two. In fact, my all time favourite Antz along with the Dirk album.

They really are always called Dubois! Especially in our old French school books. Funny choice for a first single, given the way the Ants sounded live. But a deserved hit 3 years later

Lady is the Hit, for sure. 😉 Such a contrast in both songs. I rather dislike the A-side. But, I love Lady. Best tune he ever did. Barbe tight on drums, as usual.

@jasonwilliams7752

He played Lady when I saw him live Apparently, it's based on something that happened while he was working on Derek Jarman's Jubilee

lol I've loved Adam Ant since he became famous in the US when I was 5, but hearing this song for the first time in 2018 it doesn't sound that great. What did people think of it in 1978-1982?
