    Lived in America during the 80s when this was released. They just didn't get Madness and their humour. They could watch this video and there would be nothing, no smile, no foot tapping nothing. Pleased we didn't have to share them with the Americans tbh. Madness are and always will be England's finest. One of our own.

      I was in America loving Madness (including this song) back in the day. I could tell there was British stuff in the lyrics I couldn’t fully appreciate, but I loved their albums and knew they were something special!

      I saw them perform at The Palace in Hollywood California in 1984. Everybody (including me) loved them. I don't know what part of the US you were in but they were popular in Los Angeles.

    • @Treadere
      @Treadere 7 месяцев назад +4

      So you lived in America, but didn't want them to be popular there? Even though they might have toured the US with more popularity? Didn't that hurt you back then? I feel like you were trying to show up Americans for being parochial, but showed your own parochialism is far worse. Pettier. Smaller.

      tbh i'm a bit tired of reading that "underrated" thing under every video on yt. :) they got a lot of well-deserved fame, more than any other 2-tone act and ska bands before them who paved the way. they were in tv shows, they had huge chart success, everyone knows them even today. think they can't complain.
      i fully suscribe to the first two sentences. they're not only brilliant musicians, it has always been and still is so much fun to see them. will never stop listening to their records.

      Parasmunt they were hugely influenced by Jamaican dance hall stuff , like all ska type stuff ,madness were more accessible to the masses than most ska bands hence their success, though funnily enough rumour has it that 'bed and breakfast man'was about ian from skrewdriver a right wing skins band

      Parasmunt I thought it was about a family who's daughter dated a black man "your not to see us no more"

      @@traditionalskinhead1544 the song about the daughter date with a black man is "Embarrasment"... she was de Kix' sister if I'm not wrong.

    I used to listen to this song on Top of the Pops as a young toddler. Every time it came up, I used to dance to it. And only remembered the "Whoa - Whoa." After growing up, I occasionally, I used to search for it offhandedly, never found it. I just did. :) and I still love it.

    Such a great tune. I wish they had even more agency to do more music. They show more class than those of the 'upper class,' which should make everyone think...a lesson for humanity.

    Lyrics
    Take time for your pleasure
    And laugh with love
    Take the hand of another
    And sing for the wings of a dove
    Wo-oh, wo-oh
    For the wings of a dove
    Wo-oh, wo-oh
    For the wings of a dove
    Look up at the rooftops
    When you`re walking round
    Don`t think for a moment
    Of looking down
    Wo-oh, wo-oh (yeah, yeah, yeah)
    For the wings of a dove
    Wo-oh, wo-oh
    For the wings of a dove
    Wo-oh, wo-oh
    For the wings of a dove
    Wo-oh, wo-oh
    For the wings of a dove
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Look up at the rooftops
    When you`re walking round
    Don`t think for a moment
    Of looking down
    A room at the top
    Where we`re not allowed
    Cheer to the echo
    Can you hear the sound
    Wo-oh, wo-oh (yeah, yeah, yeah)
    For the wings of a dove
    Wo-oh, wo-oh (yeah, yeah, yeah)
    For the wings of a dove
    Wo-oh, wo-oh (yeah, yeah, yeah)
    For the wings of a dove
    Wo-oh, wo-oh (yeah, yeah, yeah)
    For the wings of a dove
