She was a naughty young girl. Her daddy saw the video and was more than a bit unhappy with his 15 y/o daughter cavorting about that way.

Little known fact, Bow Wow Wow was created by Malcom McLaren, same guy who put together The Sex Pistols.

Bow Wow Wow included several members of Adam and the Ants.

I know most Freepers know this already, being serious aficionados of New Wave and Punk, but thought I'd point it out to the newbies nevertheless.

That and "I Know What Boys Like" certainly got my motor running back in the day. :-)

Saw them perform at The Strand in Hermosa Beach way back when.. I kinda had the hots for Anabella, but regardless, she was a great performer who also had a creative guitarist, drummer, etc..

Great concert on youtube:

For those who don’t know that “I want Candy” is about a certain male organ, WAKE UP!

They performed live at Ida Noyes Hall at University of Chicago back in ‘83-’84. I went and stayed for about 20 minutes, because it was free. No seating, so I was about 10 feet from the stage. The lead singer’s long mohawk was off-putting. I was familiar with “I Want Candy” because of heavy MTV rotation. Personally, I found their material musically uninteresting.

Great version of a pretty good song. But for a good laugh, read up on The Strangeloves - Giles, Miles & Niles Strange!
