The Adicts are an English punk band from Ipswich, Suffolk, England. One of the more popular punk rock bands in the 1980s, they were often in the indie charts during that decade.
The Adicts originated as Afterbirth & The Pinz in late 1975. They soon changed their name to The Adicts and became known for their distinctive Clockwork Orange "droog" image, which along with their urgent, uptempo music and light-hearted lyrics, helped set them apart from other punk bands. In the 1980s, they temporarily changed their name to Fun Adicts (for a children's TV appearance) and then ADX (after signing to a major label).
Their music has catchy melodies and lyrics, and often features extra instruments and sound clips, such as carousel music in "How Sad", violin played by Derick Cook in "Joker in the Pack", and gongs and keyboard percussion by Anthony Boyd in "Chinese Takeaway".
The musicians wear all-white clothing with black boots and black bowler hats. The singer, Keith "Monkey" Warren, wears joker makeup, wildly patterned suits (such as checkerboard or polka dot), flared trousers, colorful dress shirts, bowler hat and gloves. The band's visual look is complemented by their stage shows, involving items such as streamers, confetti, playing cards, beach balls, joker hats, toy instruments, bubbles and glitter.

Dust Off and Dance is the sixth regular studio album by Tiffany, released in May 2005. Its style is electronica or dance music, representing a departure from the styles she has used in earlier albums, and of particular interest to dance clubs, where its songs have achieved some success. Tiffany has stated that this album is especially aimed at the gay community, which represents a significant portion of her fan base; she says "I have done the complete gay album."
Tiffany did not have a record contract at the time, so this album was released independently and sold online at the CDBaby site, where it was for a while the top-selling CD. It was also made downloadable in the iTunes music store.
Tiffany has been performing in various places in the US and the UK, including songs from this album as well as her earlier releases and cover songs.
By December, 2005, the song "Be With U Tonite" was being played heavily on some dance-format radio stations.
Several tracks from the album ("Ride It", "Na Na Na" and "Fly") have been featured in several episodes of the television series Ugly Betty.
"Na Na Na (Dulce Niña)" is a single from Kumbia Kings album Fuego.
A remix was released in 2005. It has Pee Wee singing with other Kumbia Kings members Abel Talamantez and Megga. A music video was recorded as well. Although the remix for "Na Na Na (Dulce Niña)" is a single for the album Fuego it is not part of the album.
If you go down to that basement
Where the rhythm creeps
You may see a girl
Bopping to the beat
Swings her hips
And swings her hair
Sparkle in her eye
Somewhere in the darkness
She gets high
She's a rocker
And she likes to rock-n-roll
Tenderly she holds you
In her soft embrace
All she wants
All she says
Is dig that dig that bass
If you go down to that basement
Where the lights are low
You know she'll be there
Stealing the show
Like a fire burning
She's hot she's hot
Don't you hold back, baby
Give it what you got
