"Excalibur" Armor Was Used In Adam Ant Video?


I can't find confirmation but this music video for "Ant Rap" used Arthur's distinctive shiny suit of armor and Uther's armor from this movie. Warning: This song may cause anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts. LOL!

Wow. That was truly terrible. Seeing the armor again was pretty cool, but damn when you're left wishing for the days of "Don't drink, don't smoke what do you do" you know that you are in trouble.

The funny thing is, I think Gwen Stephanie may have gotten the idea for "Ain't No Hollaback Girl" from this. Also, I think the Beastie Boys sound a little like they were influenced by Ant Rap.

You want to know something scary? If not, I'm going to tell you anyway. Way back in the day when Hollaback Girl came out I saw the video on MTV (they still played videos in those days... kind of) I have no idea why MTV was even on, but it was. Anyway I was amazed at the sight of her nicely shaped buttox. Now, I'm not a buttox guy. I'm a globe guy. So, I'm still kind of amazed that I even noticed her. Now, here's the scary part- there are videos all over youtube exposing her as being really a dude... Turns out that a lot of those so called "hot women" were really dudes. Ugh, facepalm.

BTW, I have read some of your other posts and they are freaking brilliant.

When rap was rap!

The only thing in this movie I remember was the sex scene where the princess was getting fucked by a knight with his armor on. It was the weirdest shit I'd ever seen when I was about 6.

So is that what the armor in this video is in reference to when the guy in the armor drops his pants?

reply

Maybe. I just thought it was slap stick comedy.
