[@MRoyClark]

Songs like this are exactly why some folks get bent out of shape over terms like "One Hit Wonder". Just because Madness only had one huge US hit doesn't mean they weren't absolute pop monsters in their time. You're still just getting started, too. Give us some "House of Fun" next, for more of their early, nutty Ska sound. And check out "My Girl" for more of a solid Pop standard. And then you'll be halfway through their biggest hits. :)

[@MRoyClark]

@@davelewis8270 Yeah. "Our House" made US#7 in 1983 (and did well on the Rock and Dance charts, too), but it's their only significant US hit. "It Must Be Love" only made it to US#33 and never got a ton of airplay. Nothing else by Madness even cracked the US Top40, though. Ultimately, it does make sense. Madness is VERY British. Their sound, their themes, their accents, and everything. I think that's one of their biggest strengths, but it's not hard to see how it would undercut their appeal outside of UK markets. Sadly, the whole 2Tone Ska thing missed mainstream America, entirely. Sure, some New Wave dance clubs in major cities and some hip college stations gave them play, but Top40 radio? Not at all. The Specials, The Selector, The Beat, etc. didn't even crack the US Hot100. "Mirror in the Bathroom" did chart at US#22 on the dance chart, but that's a specialty market and not a particularly high placement. In the mid-to-late 90s, the US had its own (far inferior) Ska-Punk revival, and the newer wave of acts frequently name-dropped the 2-Tone movement, which helped establish Ska and the Postpunk Ska revival more firmly in the US canon of classics. The New Wave/Postpunk revival of the 00s also helped lend those acts more hipness and legitimacy for US listeners who thought Ska was just bro music for California skate-punks in the 90s.

'90s third wave ska is gonna be very different, it's way more infused with rock, but still so much fun. I think an essential introduction to it would be the Mighty Mighty Bosstones' "The Impression That I Get" but I might be biased ;)

I'm guessing the stunt is either the backflip into the pool or taking an electric guitar underwater. Also, it's a cover - the original is by Labi Siffre, the smiling chap who you see taking the sunglasses off near the end. So glad to see you watching more Madness - if there's any more to do, "Night Boat to Cairo" and "Wings of a Dove" take them in yet more wonderful directions! Oh, and '90s ska HAS to include "The Impression That I Get" by The Mighty Mighty Bosstones - gets me moving on days when almost nothing else can.

[@SirHilaryManfat]

If you were a kid of the 80's in the UK, Madness was a big part of it. There wasn't a single kid that didn't love them, or wanted to learn the saxophone because of them. It's so strange that such a lighthearted fun band could have such a big influence on British culture, but they did. I think it's also the reason why they didn't break America, because at the time 80's America was all about looking cool and showing off. Madness had that self depreciating British trait of not taking themselves too seriously, which I think was a bit of an alien concept in Ronald Reagan's America.

[@hypatian9093]

Madness was big in Germany, too.

[@amyhon2000]

As a teen in the US in the 80's I loved Madness, sadly I only knew the few songs that they played on MTV but I always thought it was weird that they weren't bigger. I was definitely a bigger fan of British artists - ABC, Spandau Ballet, Madness, Duran Duran....Loved them all and more!

"There hadn’t been many multiracial bands in Britain, but suddenly there were all these bands in the Midlands and us, and white kids dancing to black music. It was an epochal moment for our culture. On the 2 Tone tour there were people like [Specials trombonist] Rico, who’d been in the Skatalites and who was 60-odd. All these different ages, colours, races … and we were kids, running around like idiots, a blur of legs, arms and adrenaline." SUGGS - madness "When I lived in the U.K., I recorded a lot of ska and rock-steady styles of Jamaican music. But people there weren't accepting it. So I began using a faster reggae beat."

Check out the Ska band Bad Manners’ songs, Just Walking in the Sunshine or Special Brew (which is a love song). It’s a shame but Ska faded away.

This song was written by British artist and song writer Labi Siffre, in 1971 (hyperlink to the original release) kzbin.info/www/bejne/an_aYa2wdp6Wm7M When Madness were making the film clip they invited Mr Siffre to join them; he is the violinist on the right side of the frame.There is a particular brand of disposable nappies that have used multiple iterations of the song for 20ish years. A nice little earner for Mr Siffre. (I don't like the idea of using this song for advertising, however I didn't write the song Mr Siffre did...good luck to him) All the best JV, thank you.

The musicality of Madness is crazy! The arrangements, the clever use of syncopation by off-beats saying more by not saying it, by space in the music, the potency of understatement... Also the key changes, very clever, on tunes like 'Our house' too, where the key changes go all around the houses before going back home. Mad or Genius... Fine line!
