"I'm walking around like an arm decoration"

Spring of 1995. I remember Junior Prom and a comeback single from Adam Ant, "Wonderful". Ant's last album to date, Wonderful was the perfect mix of Beatlesesque psychedelia and 80s "Ant"ics. The lead single made girls swoon and, for guys, had that perfect mix of heartfelt romanticism streaked by a jaded perspective on life. On a whole, the album is a great collection songs, many co-written by brilliant guitarist Marco Pirroni. Take a listen to the single, "Wonderful", and a brilliant album track, "Vampires".
