Stand and Deliver (Adam and the Ants song)
"Stand and Deliver" was Adam and the Ants' most successful single. The song entered the UK Singles Chart at number one on 9 May 1981, and remained there for five weeks. It has sold 1.03 million copies in the UK. On the US Dance chart, "Stand and Deliver" peaked at #38, (along with the track, "Beat My Guest"). In 2015 the song was voted by the British public as the nation's 15th favourite 1980s number one in a poll for ITV.
Copies of the single "Stand and Deliver" b/w "Beat My Guest" were included as a free bonus item with some vinyl copies of the US version of the album ''Kings of the Wild Frontier'' on Epic Records. Epic's cassette edition appended the two tracks to each end of either side of the tape. "Stand and Deliver" was then featured on their follow-up LP, ''Prince Charming'', released in November 1981. The lyric "stand and deliver - your money or your life" was a phrase commonly used by highwaymen in 18th century England during robberies.
==Music video==
The costume, general plot arc, etc. of the video all seem based on the 1973 Monty Python sketch ''Dennis Moore''. It features Adam Ant dressed as a "dandy highwayman" who is captured and escapes being hanged from the gallows with help from his accomplices (his band members). The video's opening sequence of Adam Ant putting on his make-up before going out on a robbery became a defining visual image for Adam Ant in the years that followed. The video also has an early appearance by Amanda Donohoe, who at the time was Adam's girlfriend.
