Always baffles me that some people can't get enjoyment from music without vocals

I watched your reaction to their song Our House and you actually decided to do a reaction to this song! Now you get to see all of the crazy SKA dance moves we all did from back in the day!

[@normandavidtidiman9918]

This is a cover of the Prince Buster (real name Cecil Campbell) song from the 1960s. He was a proponent of Ska music which was revived in the 70s in the UK by the likes of The Specials & Madness. Madness also took their name from another Prince Buster song which they in turn also covered.

[@kristianturner6391]

prince buster loved it and said it was better than his original version

[@keithslater7813]

I cried when I heard this cover

[@polyestawyldesage504]

Oh she has got to do The Specials. Also studying the original skinhead movement before Nazis appropriated it will teach her a lot about Jamaican Immigrants in England and the white dancehall kids who would curbstomp Nazis for them.

[@polyestawyldesage504]

@Zippy Knowitall I am American, and I was more of a deathpunk than a SHARP but I would roll with SHARPS when business needed taken care of in the 80s and 90s

[@ElmerFishpaw]

They were/are an amazing live unit and the song "Embarrasment" has a dark origin and a serious but really great song

[@annother3350]

Great song

[@ianjohnson1920]

Embarrassment is one of their absolute best tracks.

[@samolevski1119]

The spoken intro featured the words 'listen buster (mate, friend, pal, buddy)', and is of course a reference to Prince Buster who was the king of ska and had the original hit

[@damonhines8187]

So good, ridiculously un-self-important, tight as a drum store's attic. Love 'em from Day 1.

[@AntaresSelket]

I have Madness on a playlist with other Ska, New Wave, and Punk Rock music from the 80s...absolutely love it! So glad you're covering this.

[@indiecarmayne]

It's not One Step Behind, It's One Step BEYOND. But glad you liked it. ;-)

[@Andy-Capp]

When this is played at weddings and functions people just get up and do the dance.

[@theConquerersMama]

Yes!

[@calebclunie4001]

Madness - "Night Boat To Cairo", was pretty big, but I love "The Prince", "Wings Of A Dove", or "Tomorrow's Just Another Day".

[@lea6555]

Nightboat to Cairo has to be the funniest video ever made 👍

[@caneyebus]

@@lea6555 I came here to say the same damn thing!

[@neilbrie8972]

I love this song! Just want to dance !

[@samolevski1119]

Guy 'dancing' in front of red phone boxes was a mate of theirs who couldn't dance but was brought into it, to add some humour and normality amidst the lunacy

[@kenwoolley3003]

Great band Madness were just one of those bands that most people loved

[@paulmorris8762]

these guys and the (English ) Beat along with Specials moved your feet and soul in the 80s

[@paulmorris8762]

almost forgot Ian Dury and the Blockheads too LOL

[@viewfromthehighchair9391]

They sang ONE line and you never heard it. LOL "ONE STEP BEYOND" You crack me up.

[@alansmith1989]

Just shows how much attention she was paying = `Not Much!`

[@warrennicholsony.fernando4513]

The first time I heard this song and saw the video, I was on the floor laughing. 30 years later, I still fall to the floor laughing.

[@RobRager]

Some of the most profound lyrics, of all time!!

[@petervandervlies6427]

This brings you in a good mood. 👍😁 Nice to see you again 💪👊❤

[@ronpaizley9349]

Nice too see you back this manic Monday/ 2 tone in huh also check the specials / the English beat / the selector (who you will love) even the original "the skatilites" a whole world of Ska music from its original Jamaica roots thr the streets of England !!!

[@jesuspena8415]

You have got to see, their live performance of madness 2011 festival in Redding. When they come on to the stage to like 50,000 teenagers and they go wild. Incredible energy & performance. One step beyond

[@deedee-qf2ne]

So happy you're back!!!!!!

[@theConquerersMama]

Ohhhh the memories. So much fun. Ska in the 80s was so fun. It's always fun . I was just a certain age then so I am partial.

[@arautus]

It's great to see you back, India! Your responses are some of the best and most insightful of all reactors.

[@bobmarlowe3390]

I saw Madness in concert in Daytona in '83. It was a free concert and I was about 3 feet from the stage.

[@williamweiss6128]

Oh yeah!!! Love me some Madness, The Jam, Gang Of Four, Squeeze, that British sound.

[@garyschill7923]

[@RIXRADvidz]

so glad you're well. it's been a tough time lately huh? Madness is High Steppin' Dance Music!! you don't dance slow to Madness, the Godfathers of SKA

[@PAPAROBBIE]

The Godfathers of Ska?? No sir!! The Godfathers of Ska are all natives of Jamaica....and Madness grew up listening to THEM.

Simply awesome. As Ska as it gets. SUGGS, a master

[@Lynnimod]

Can you imagine what it was like as a 17 year old in 1979 hearing this for the first time?? I remember well.

[@duebraccia]

Yes of course, I can do it perfectly! I was 12 years old and this song entered me like a locomotive! But the whole album is fantastic.

[@missvida6251]

Girl you are so awesome!!!!!

[@duebraccia]

Yes I think so too. Really cute.

[@user-hj6uf6nr9b]

Great to have you back India, it's been a while.

[@karmannghiaman1041]

Two tone had great brass, Bad Manners, the late great Rico with the Specials but you need to do UB40 One in Ten. Great music and proper political lyrics.

Okay, okay . Iam feeling this instrumental.

[@GinMae]

Thanks, India - this song is so much fun! "Our House" is a bit more mainstream.. but this band had so much energy and talent.. I'm glad you took a look -lol

[@jamescanzoneri1698]

By the time they had recorded Our House, they were 4 albums in and were progressing musically with each album. One Step was their starting point. “Absolutely” (second album) is no joke as a follow-up!

[@GinMae]

@@jamescanzoneri1698 Thanks, James! I was a "casual listener" back in the day...

If you like Madness, you should also check out The Specials - "Gangsters" is almost constantly stuck in my head; "Ghost Town", "A Message to You, Rudy", and "Too Much Too Young" are great too.

For those people, like me, who like to nerd out a bit: Ska shares a common origin with Reggae and Rocksteady (they even mention Rocksteady in this clip) in Jamaica, dating back to at least the 50s, but possibly the 40s, very likely, actually. What most people around the world identify as Ska is actually the second generation of Ska that spread from the UK; which Madness is a part of. The first wave came from Jamaica, but in the post-war period, Jamaica being a part of the British Commonwealth, was given preferential treatment for its immigrants to the UK to help rebuild the country after the war. That's how Ska made its way to the UK. And, because Jamaican immigrants settled in very working-class neighborhoods, many white Britons adopted the genre. Ska was, in essence, a very working-class youth genre in the UK in the first decade or so. In the 70s, when Punk music broke out in the UK, many of its aspects, like the high energy and electronic instruments (and some post-punk) fused with the earlier Ska to create what you see here: second-wave ska. Ironically, this also coincided with much of the Thatcher period. I say ironic, because Thatcher was very conservative in the Cold War drive while most UK Ska bands were very racially integrated; as were the audiences and tended to have a very strong working class and militant anti-racist stand. Third generation Ska isn't really that interesting (with perhaps my personal liking of the band Save Ferris). In general it was a 90s American suburbanite pop infused thing that was empty of any significant social lyrics. Most of you may not know this, but this song by Madness is actually a cover of Prince Buster's original version. In fact, their name "Madness" also comes from a Prince Buster song; along with their song of the same name. Prince Buster's considered the godfather of Ska. I leave the link below of the original version of "One Step Beyond." kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6bOi6Cfe7Ctpck

In the 80's whilst we were all trying to look cool for the girls at school disco's. When this can on, that was it, forget the girls we were dancing like that pretending to be one of the 'nutty boys' aka Madness.

[@alansmith1989]

They clearly shout "One step Beyond" but this `reviewer` keeps calling it "One Step Behind" Says it all really!
