dbo:abstract
  • Adam Ant, vlastním jménem Stuart Leslie Goddard (* 3. listopadu 1954 Marylebone, Londýn) je britský zpěvák a kytarista. Přestože studoval grafické umění na Hornsey School of Art, začal se věnovat hudbě, nejdříve punkové, později stylu new wave a new romantic. Postupně účinkoval ve skupinách Bazzoka Joe jako baskytarista s přezdívkou „Eddie Riff“ a jako frontman nikdy nevystoupivší vlastní kapely The B-sides. A konečně to byla kapela (1977), kterou mu rozvrátil Malcolm McLaren s tím, že je Adam pro ně moc starý, takže kapela dále vystupovala bez něho pod jménem „Bow Wow Wow“. Novou kapelu založil spolu s Markem Pirronim. Z té doby pochází nejznámější album Kings of the Wild Frontier (1980) a antmanie ve Velké Británii 80. let. Po další desce Prince Charming (1981) se skupina rozpadla, protože se Ant vydal na sólovou dráhu. Přestěhoval se do Los Angeles a dále hudebně spolupracoval jen s Markem Pirronim. Studoval herectví a vystupoval ve filmech. K původnímu filmu Jubilee z roku 1977 si postupně přidal účinkování v dalších, jako například: World Gone Wild, Drop Dead Rock (1996), La Femme Nikita (1997) a Sweetwater (1999). Postupně vydal sólově tato alba: Friend Or Foe (1982), Strip (1983), Vive Le Rock (1985), Manners & Physique (1989), Wonderful (1995) a Adam Ant Is The Blueblack Hussar In Marrying The Gunner’s Daughter (2013).

  • Stuart Leslie Goddard, better known as Adam Ant (born 3 November 1954), is an English singer, musician, and actor. He gained popularity as the lead singer of new wave group Adam and the Ants and later as a solo artist, scoring 10 UK top ten hits from 1980 to 1983, including three UK No. 1 singles. He has also worked as an actor, appearing in many films and television episodes. Born in Marylebone, London, Ant began his musical career playing bass in the band Bazooka Joe. From 1977 to 1982 he performed with Adam and the Ants, and their debut album Dirk Wears White Sox (1979) reached number one on the UK Independent Albums Chart. Prior to recording his second album as Adam and the Ants, he asked producer Malcolm McLaren to manage his band, who instead took his backing band to form Bow Wow Wow. Ant regrouped with new members, including Marco Pirroni, to release his second album Kings of the Wild Frontier (1980). It reached number one in the UK Album Chart, spawned three hit singles, became the UK number-one selling album in 1981 (and the 48th best-seller in 1980), and won Best British Album at the 1982 Brit Awards. He released his third and final album with the group, Prince Charming (1981), which spawned two UK number-one singles "Stand and Deliver" and "Prince Charming". In 1982, he disbanded his group for a solo career retaining only Marco Pirroni as a bandmember and co-songwriter for later solo albums. His first solo album was Friend or Foe (1982), from which the debut single "Goody Two Shoes" reached number one in the UK and Australia in 1982, and became his first top-20 hit in the United States. The album reached number five on the UK Albums Chart and number 16 on the US Billboard Album Chart, becoming his most successful solo album. His next two solo albums Strip (1983) and Vive Le Rock (1985) were less commercially successful in the UK and the US, and were a noted stylistic departure from his earlier rock albums, being more grounded in pop and dance. Ant also began to focus on an acting career, performing on stage and in film and television roles throughout the 1980s and 1990s. He released his fourth solo album Manners & Physique (1990) which was produced by André Cymone and featured a Minneapolis sound. Despite the US Top-20 success of the single "Room at the Top" from that album, Ant was dropped from MCA Records, and the fully recorded Persuasion (1991) was shelved and never officially released. He signed with Capitol Records to release Wonderful (1995), which featured more acoustic songs than his previous albums. The single "Wonderful" became Ant's third US Top-40 hit single. Since 2010, Ant has continued his music career, performing live regularly in his hometown of London and beyond, recording and releasing a new album Adam Ant Is the Blueblack Hussar in Marrying the Gunner's Daughter (2013, UK number 25), and completing eight full-length UK national tours, five US national tours, and two Australian tours. A further album, Bravest of the Brave, was recorded in 2014 and is still awaiting release. (en)

  • Adam Ant é o nome artístico de Stuart Leslie Goddard (Londres, 3 de novembro de 1954), líder e vocalista da banda Adam and the Ants. Embora tenha começado a tocar música punk, ele foi aos poucos mudando seu estilo em direção à imagem de um astro pop. Assim como David Bowie, Madonna e outros célebres camaleões da música, Adam era notório por reinventar sua imagem a cada disco novo. Indubitavelmente o ponto alto da carreira de Ant foi no começo dos anos 80 com sua banda. Ajudou muito o surgimento da MTV, que deu a ele o veículo ideal para transmitir sua mensagem às massas—o videoclipe. Até 1985 Adam ainda tinha apelo suficiente na mídia, inclusive participando do concerto beneficente Live Aid, onde, ao invés de tocar seus maiores sucessos ele escolheu as músicas do seu recém-lançado álbum solo. Não adiantou muito, e foi o começo do declínio de sua carreira. Foi então que Adam passou a atuar em filmes e séries de TV. No final dos anos 90, aproveitando a onda de nostalgia em relação aos anos 80, Adam retomou sua carreira, obtendo sucesso relativo (principalmente entre seus antigos fãs). No começo de 2002 Adam se envolveu em uma briga em um pub na Inglaterra, que lhe rendeu um processo. Foi então revelado que ele era maníaco depressivo. Desde este incidente ele voltou a ser notícia, com rumores sobre seu estado de saúde e prováveis projetos musicais. (pt)
