Madness - Sweetest Girl

[@Habibasse]

I finally saw them on Tuesday ! Best moment of my life !!

[@abelgrif]

IT ...... SUGGS !!!!! ANOTHER GREAT SONG FROM A GREAT BAND !!

[@tailendcharlie]

love this arrangement of this song

[@daypeshmodd]

Was a teen in early 80s & loved tons of bands -still do. Scritti Politti was one of my top fave -still is! Don't think any cover of the Sweetest Girl can beat the original and by far! The original is a 100 times better. Go ask any Scritti fan, many are angry about Madness' cover. But I'm different, and although far from being as good as the original, Madness did a suberb job! I luv their version! Still I suggest u all go check Scritti's original even if it's still lacking a video (wtf??!!)!!

This band is amazingly cute I love this band drummer the cutest! Amazing! Sad I didn't live in England in the 70's and 80's :(

[@rodcarlson9505]

Sadly it was a cover of another band Scritti Politti, but i was a drummer to! We are all good looking lol

[@noticeeverything]

thanks for posting this ilike all versions of this thank and it looks like a party on the stage I feel like dancing

[@kristianbejb]

sweetest girl

[@badhead]

I agree. But Uncle Sam and Yesterdays men are 2 of their best songs. Even if the rest of the album is crap.

[@squonkynut]

Suggs is the sexiest man alive - this clip proves it! :D Oh and Chas on sax?!?!? *FAN GIRL SQUEAL!*

[@mikefahey28]

[@lisaexploradora826]

great video! oh! i love suggs!!

[@madjen7uk]

im singing along!!x

[@MadnotMad79]

greatest band in all the wourld......:)

[@davidsanderson5918]

I love Scritti in their smash bang wallop slap phase (Cupid, Provision)....I also love Madness and was gobsmacked when this came out. I'm sure Green approved of the production at least.

[@rodcarlson9505]

Scritti Politti version is way better sorry

[@texluh]

It was Afrodisiac. Caron Wheeler was the main singer of the three; four years later made it very big on her own wth Soul II Soul. Not sure if it was Louchie Lou & Michie One - maybe Wikipedia will reveal all.

[@daypeshmodd]

Also about Scritti, If you watch old interviews of Green, you'll see he's very opiniated. Add that to the fact that he's a giant -though a very skinny one then- and you think you have a strong guy.Yet he had lots of health problems- anxiety, stage fright- that led to his FIRST heart attack at age 23! Giving shows + touring is the way to fame.Scritti couldn't do that despite excellent album sales. So Madness was more famous, hence their cover of SG scoring higher in the charts than the original.

[@RobbieReineldt]

I sung this to a girl I had a crush on in the 80's.

[@MadnotMad79]

Maddest Group In All The Wourld????

[@MadnotMad79]

SWEETEST BIRD... :)

[@sanctuary5]

He said he was extremely flattered but only pissed that they put his ex-girlfriend in the video!

[@tailendcharlie]

better than scritti's version---- class

[@David-h4z2s]

The drummer was going short on chippy teas So Slim 🦇

[@tacticalbattledroid]

not heard this by madness .;-)

[@mfactor88]

a cover of the Scritti Polliti song and actually better this was a hit much to Greens annoyance

[@NuthatchLover33]

Некоторые РЕШИТЕЛЬНО не умеют петь под фанеру и этого не скрывают ;) Oh my god!!! How old is Suggs here?! 15?! Not more, I think! X'D

[@andrewmoylan2077]

People say I'm Suggs's double

[@angelsilvani7407]

chas on sax?

[@oldsynth]

I love how dijointed this song is. way better than scritti politti

[@loslolloslolollos]

wasnt it from scritti politti ????

[@quazoid]

the end of the road, and rightly so.

[@davidsanderson5918]

Where's Lee?

[@David-h4z2s]

Down the boozer

[@xalmon5]

Suggs has called that one a "Polished turd" (The whole "Mad Not Mad" product actually). Really not their finest days, not the same without barso...

[@josbowie]

i know! weird

[@katoness]

Eh no. It must be love they did well. But to touch chase the devil and so much trouble did not come near the originals.

[@TONYCOV881]

this is when madness were at there weakest. they werent the same barzo left the band.

[@MadnotMad79]

greatest band in all the wourld... :)
