The 80s was the best decade ever in my humble opinion...we had great music films and TV shows ...people used to look each other in the eye when talking instead of staring at a screen in their hand ...if you wanted to see your friends you walked to their house 9 times out of 10 they'd be out playing and you'd have to go and find them and people were just all round nicer but then the world was a lot nicer back then to ...ah simpler times ..love this song

Then imagine how it felt to turn on the telly and see some super fucking cool, utterly beautiful man, dressed like a cross between a Regency dandy and a decadent pirate, tell you 'ridicule is nothing to be scared of'.

"Prince Charming" was a number one single in the UK Singles Chart for four weeks in September 1981 for Adam and the Ants, featured on the album of the same name. Written by Marco Pirroni and the Ants, it was their second number one single. Fellow band member and co-producer Merrick (Chris Hughes), normally on drums, played a stirring riff on an open-tuned acoustic guitar throughout the song; lead guitarist Pirroni mimed to this part on both an orchestral harp and a miniature version of the instrument in the promotional video, which was based on the pantomime Cinderella. The music video was also notable for its extravagant production. It featured a swashbuckling Adam Ant, in flamboyant Regency clothes, performing a much imitated arm-crossing dance. Diana Dors, in one of her last on-screen performances, appeared in the video as a Fairy Godmother.

His video budget was big big! Swinging from chandeliers, Diana Dors, smoke clouds, panthers, exotic cars, costumes, everything! He is so handsome and oozed charisma.

[@MrSmithGuy]

That video cost £50,000

[@thomasnuedling9167]

I've never seen this video before! What a treat! What a fine specimen of a man. I saw him in concert in NYC. I would play the greatest hits CD at Tower in Paramus, NJ. I love this song ❤️❤️❤️!

[@enigma19833]

LOL @ his face when he's swinging the chandelier at around 1:50 - he looks terrified!

[@danny67899749]

He looks like he souts PANTIES! Lol

[@larsson71h53]

Maybe it was the drop he had to do from it that terrified him?

[@kennyhagan5781]

Adam and the Ants, I had forgotten how much fun their music was. Thanks.

[@GroundhogRoy]

Vevo, you're supposed to be a professional music service - and this is the sound quality you bring us?!

[@jenniferwest2085]

He is still as talented and as handsome now as he was then. I saw him at the Caverns. A bucket list show for me and he is so freaking hot, just a beautiful man with an amazing talent. I have been a fan since I first heard Goody Two Shoes at 6 and now I am 46 and he still is a handsome talented Prince Charming ❤

[@jonesytoo]

Adam Ant was and still is a fabulous entertainer. I've seen many of his live shows and he never fails to get a venue rocking. And this is from a lady a similar age to him. Still my ambition to meet him, just for a hug and a big Thank You.

[@EvamariaWolgarten]

Hes sooo beautiful. One of my favourite radiosongs in the early eightees.

[@user-le8oz8rc1o]

Diana dors was absolutely stunning. What a beauty 💜💜💜💜

[@Mari-gs2hb]

Yes. A gorgeous and incredibly talented woman. She was definitely one of a kind.

[@paulnellie2124]

[@Andrewsetsit4u]

Why can’t I stop watching. I can’t get enough of this adding this to my hilarious favorites

[@Lee-sv8su]

The one and only Diana Dors! Perfect for this video!! Charisma in buckets that lady and much missed to this day!!

[@MarkSchmidt-w6s]

I loved this as a young teen. At the time I had no concept of the dandy nature of it I just sincerely thought it was fun and liked the music.

[@thisisjojo433]

Mum had this song on a CD back in the early 2000's. Randomly typed in Prince charming there's nothing to be scared of and well... The music video is almost exactly as you would imagine it 😂😂

[@SkyeID]

That wasn't just a video. That was an experience! I feel like I went through a 3 minute journey into the mind of a creative artist.

[@ConnorCody-qe4ef]

Takese me back to the 80s we loved this guy he was the fabric of our time.brings a tear how our youth gone in a flash.. enjoy your early years kids because you will wake up old sooner than you think.😢

[@chrismedford2819]

Awesome! Played the album constantly when I got it for Christmas back then which even had the lyrics. During drama lesson the whole class did the iconic dance!

[@peterwilliamskelhorn6675]

@chrismedford2819 my mum used to dance to this song
