Makes me proud to think we were fellow Europeans for a while.

[@greggmatson2249]

Fabulous! Never heard of this group before. But I'm a believer.

[@davelangley2965]

What? never heard of madness! If you have never heard of madness you must be young! Glad you like them, nice to hear from younger ones who appreciate the music of my generation.

[@greggmatson2249]

@@davelangley2965 Immature, certainly, but not young. Fact is, I'll be 75 in May. But better late than never, right?

As a half Egyptian I never knew this Pharaoh's treasure of a track existed... ❤ it!!!

Excellentissime, le bon son du début des années 80, en boîte de nuit c’était la folie !

[@AnAdorableWombat]

This is the most British thing I've ever seen in my life! And I absolutely love it!!! Edit: I just realized I commented this on one of their other videos! 😂😂

[@colinluckens9591]

(your last edit) nuffink wrong with that!!🙂😉

The most British thing is Challenger tanks. They have tea making facilities

[@billybatts8283]

Madness are the only band I've taken great joy in seeing live more than once. Their gigs are sensational fun and always awesome crowds. Scarborough is a great venue to see then at.

[@emmerdale2710]

The art of making videos, madness were the best and still are.. Always a comedy moment before each one

The British retake the Suez to free the Ever Given (circa 2021, colourised)

[@spaceracer6861]

Something filmed during 2021 and needing to be colorised can only be the work of the French.

[@nexussever]

I love this band- satisfies my craving to hear new music in the Oingo-Boingo-Talking-Heads tradition.

[@himesilva]

Never knew it was possible to have such a satisfying drop in a song that's not EDM in the slightest

As an italian after i listened to this song i feel proud of being british

I'm a shelf-stocker on night shift. This (and other Madness) is my top choice for getting a blast of energy.
