    Fun fact: the song was all finished, mixed and produced, but when presented to the record label executives they felt it needed a chorus. Madness went back into the studio came up with and recorded the “our house, in the middle of our street” bit, which became the chorus and was spliced into the original song.
    Listen carefully. Slightly different tempo, but imagine a) being able to just come up with it and b) the song without that bit in it!
    It’s brilliant!

"House of Fun" is a really enjoyable song & video of theirs from the early days, around the same time period/band line-up as "One Step Beyond" and "Our House." They also performed live on the excellent absurd-comedy Britcom series "The Young Ones," twice I believe.

    Madness is one of the best bands of all time. So damn talented musicians and so damn underrated. And when it comes to music videos, they were groundbreaking and far ahead of their time (most music videos in the early '80s were still mostly just filming while playing playback, but Madness made it an art form).
    They have so many really great songs (with great music videos)
    "Night Boat to Cairo"
    "Baggy Trousers"
    "Shut Up"
    "It Must Be Love"
    "Driving in My Car"
    "Michael Caine"
    "Bed and Breakfast Man"
    "Embarrassment"
    "Grey Day"
    "One Step Beyond"
    "Grey Day"
    "Tomorrow's (Just Another Day)"
    "My Girl"
    "The Sun and the Rain"
    "(Waiting For) The Ghost Train"
    "The Prince"
    "Cardiac Arrest"
    "Wings of a Dove"
    "Uncle Sam"

    This was my first introduction to Madness as a child, and I didn't know it at the time, but also British humour (yes, humor spelled with a 2nd U). Their videos had a lot of Monty Python-esque elements, but back then I just liked the wacky look of it all. Try "House of Fun" next, it's about a teen trying to buy condoms! lol

There was fewer cars and our street was a dead end anyway. Wings of a Dove and It must be Love are my other favourites.

    Do the songs "My Girl", "Embarrassment" and "It Must Be Love" - which are more musically serious, then "House of Fun" and "Baggy Trousers", " Michael Cane" for more fun... but whether the song is a fun one or not, these guys are brilliant musicians and song-writers. Part of the Ska revival in the UK in the 80's.

    Aww yiss, MOAR MADNESS has been satisfied. Madness is from Camden Town (if you've watched Peaky Blinders that should register.) Camden Town is *very* close to Tilbury, where the HMV Windrush arrived back in 1948, carrying the Calypso musicians Lords Woodbine, Beginner, and Kitchener. Lord Woodbine became the promoter for The Beatles in their early days. The musical influences of the 492 West Indian passengers coming from Kingston, Jamaica shaped the music that arose in the UK from there, Ska becoming influential in the working class communities of that part of the UK.
    Madness is currently comprised of:
    Chris Foreman: guitar (1976-1986, 1992-2005, 2006-present)
    Mike Barson: keyboards, pianos, vibraphone, and backing vocals (1976-1984, 1992-present)
    Lee Thompson: saxophone, percussion, and backing vocals (1976-1977, 1978-1986, 1992-present)
    Graham "Suggs" McPherson: lead vocals (1977, 1978-1986, 1992-present)
    Dan Woodgate: drums, percussion (1978-1986, 1992-present)
    Mark Bedford: bass guitar (1978-1986, 1992-2009, 2012, 2013-present)
    Ska was originally from Jamaica, and became linked with the working class subculture of the skinheads. Skinheads were not anything racist-connected, but in order to play on the popularity of the look and subculture the NP co-opted the music and look. As a result SHARPs arose, (S)kin (H)eads (A)ren't (R)acist (P)****, and the organization Skin Heads Against Racial Prejudice.
    Madness often had issues with the NP-converted racist skinheads coming to their shows, even though they were never associated with that co-opted subset.
