Suggs was only 18 at the time this was made. What a legend
Mark Bedford, as well
Mark was 17 I think
@@2dswifey237 Unbelievable.
Gorgeous suggs xx
crazy how a bunch of guys so young can make something so goddamn good
These guys were ahead of their time..the guy on the pianos was wicked.
Yeah he really adds exactly what the song needs. He makes Madness sound like no one else but Madness. Self-taught too!
Mike Barson....that piano!
Monsieur Barso!!!! What a lad. They were all excellent, thommy boy / kix / Lee Thompson the saxaphonist was rubbish but look how he improved. Chrissy boy, woody, Chas, Suggs, Bedders. Were all so cool
And the 🎷!
The piano on shut up is magic
Only madness could make a song that clearly tells the story about depression sound so cheery. Amazing.
More like a failing relationship than depression, but I get your POV
@@Dr.ZoidbergPhD The scenario in the song happend to me few days ago. Listening to this heals my heart.
"TIMELESS TUNE!"
Never Gets OLD.. 😊
Funny how differently it can be interpreted. I see it as an introvert being misunderstood by their partner
So young, so working class and so TALENTED!
Cybil+Kev and so british ! French fan 70yo.
Everything the establishment hates to be honest!
The Establishment of today would have this band abolished and locked up for there ability to speak to the white working class😢
Probably the most British band ever.
+blackhatch46 definitely
Agree 100%
+blackhatch46 YESSSSSS
+blackhatch46 Pulp are a challenger, though.
+blackhatch46 one Million and then some % correct !
Back when there was talent in the charts. Great band.
A wonderful tune by North London's finest band!
Transports me back to the 80’s and a happy childhood. The piano arrangement is beautiful during the chorus.
Madness....saw them live in November 2019.........still brilliant.......still great live........still Nutty! Long live Madness.
Seen them around the same time in Limerick
Calling madness nutty, how dare you, call them MAD
Great to know!!!
Ok boys
I’m 55 and got them on my Spotify. The younger generations are missing out and I say that with a smile!
Gen z here. I'm obsessed with this band ever since my dad showed the Young Ones to me. Madness were on twice I recall. We are getting into it. We are coming.
@@wididididididi8693 ska bands . The English Beat, Madness and Bad Manners were my favourites.
Trust me, Young People know about Madness and Ska in General.
We all have Parents who love their Generation of music and pass it on to their Kids.
I Myself grew up on all the classics thanks to my dad (Queen, Madness, Elton, Mike and the Mechanics, E.L.O, ect.) But I still listen to some modern music as it's not all as bad as you probably think.
There's some good stuff in there, you gotta be open minded.
Every generation has good music and bad music; its just that you only remember the good stuff when a couple decades pass.
its wrong :) i listen that song on spotify every day😅
@@ahmetoztas8486 So pleased you aware of good music from the past!
the musicallity of the piano in this song is astounding
TRULY
Killer keys!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, the name is Mike Barson
that landlord at the start is is as Irish as it gets , this is proper old school Camden Town , God bless ya , peace
They had a pretty big following in Southern California at the time. I never thought then that they would be my favorite band ever. I'm 59. Love my boys!!!
This song nearly makes me cry but the upbeat tone counteracts that. This song is bliss.
The Dublin Castle in Camden. First class!
I'm 44 and I listened to madness through the 80's
Pure Madness ❤
Absolute
One step beyond !
Haha! Yesss
i love
Man, growing up in the 80s! The best variety of music!
Over the years really good stuff doesn't get old, it only gets better.
You forget how good these songs were and the lyrics so on point. They were kids ffs
I've not heard these songs for years but I still know all the words
Hasn’t that always been the music industry?
Alive in London town in the late 70's f--k yer!!
Ooooh sugs. Bring back the rude boys. Lol xx
How young were they when they hit their height?
I was 12 when these guys were wrighting such songs.
When I'm having a tough day, I play madness. Their music always lifts my soul.
Me too! 🙂
@@Mortthemoose can't beat abit of madness!
I was 11 in 1979
Same here! Still play them now and then.
Yep
Mike Barson was quality. This band were the sound of my youth. Brilliant...
Suggs is a true fucking genius.
+Edward Austin HE IS!
I think the true genius of this marvellous band is Mike Barson! :)
Agreed
Woody, Barson, Lee & Bedders were as good as it gets.
Suggs weren't the best singer but he done a great job with his ability
coolest guy to ever walk the earth
Saw them twice when I was in high school in 1983. What a great time for music!
That line "And now she says I'm weak!" is priceless. Clearly taken from a real argument!
I love the use of piano in some madness tracks. It's simple and unpretentious but really effective. This is one of them.
Nowhere near as easy to play properly as it sounds, neither! That's the genius of Mike Barson.
I picked up a book of the sheet music of all of their greatest hits and I'm slowly figuring them out!! I especially love this one
Really? A book with Madness sheets for Piano?! Where did you get this?
Mike Barson is one of the reasons why I started to learn to play the piano one year ago - with the age of 38. And besides my lessons I'm watching intensively the channel of MrNuttyLee7. Thanks to him and his tutorials I'm able to play "My girl" and "It must be love" on piano. That's so amazing.
Schmidthorst69 well the book was made in 92 and it has all the songs from the album divine (which is all of their greatest hits). And by the way, I agree Mike Barson is a legend. If you are looking to buy the book off someone then it is called divine madness and it was published by EMI music publishing LTD in 1992
Thanks so much. I need this book so badly!!!! :)
My parents love Madness since they are young and i love too.Their songs are iconic.
the way the singer is dancing absolutely kills me
M. Barson's piano skills always make everything sounds so great
I' m italian and knew madness many years ago about 79'. I always loved their.
Madness is so underrated. They are truly talented British making great songs.
Still legendary, every time I listen to Madness (my childhood heroes) it puts a smile on my face and I’m a young kid again.
Same here Thorny Boy 🙂😍🙂
We didn't realise back then that it was as good as it was ever going to get. Life is shit in 2020, and 2021!!
Completely agree, I was born in 1998 but I see now that i would have had a better time being in my 20s then instead of now , nothing but misery and anger round every corner these days not to mention that everyone is glued to their screens
Life is shit? At least america is!!!! ',-)
You can make it good. When this covid thing is over start walking or exercising. Enjoy your time with family. That's the most important thing.
@@5uper5kill3rz I think that's because you were in your 20s more than anything, mate
ahh, what i wouldnt give to go back to lockdown one. where we made bread, and america wasnt recovering from a coup.
An amazing track, still sounds superb, and I love Mike Barsons piano throughout the chorus.
Sax was on it too!
If I danced like Suggs, my girl'd be mad at me too. LOL!
My favourite Madness song.
Ok
Me too, reminds me of being a teenager. Good times!
I'm totally in love with the way they move
i can't believe this video is 37 years old
Helmy Allen 37 really fuck
the song released in 1979
38 years
+Richard i'm sorry you replied it too late
God I'm old!
Probably the best masterpiece of Madness
I'm so glad my mum and uncle got me in to this music. Madness ,oasis and queen thanks to my grandad
One of my favourite Madness songs!
THIS IS THE PURE SOUND OF MY CHILDHOOD.....MEMORIES......:-))))
oh yes, throw in some bad manners, specials, selecter...
The only sad thing about madness is there videos haven't got more views
Geoff Leach Concreat
I know. Any madness song needs at least 10B views.
What are you typing about man??? Our house has about 15 million views.. One Step Beyond has over 11 million... It must be love has over 12 million views and Night Boat to Cairo has over 8 million views.. They made well over 6 million pounds as a band which would be about 24 million pounds in today's money.. They were huge in England but never truly tried to break America or Europe for that matter.. RUclips only came on the seen not so long ago yet Madness can still generate all these millions of views which means that they're still one of the most popular bands worldwide. It's only now with platforms such as RUclips that the world can be opened up to bands like Madness.
Most of their singles have over a million views each. they're still huge...
If RUclips existed in the '80 this video would easily have 100+ millions views (in retrospect some Beatles videos would have billions of views)
The hooteres
Saw these lads last night live for the first time in 38 years. Still sound as good as they did then.
It’s really wonderful how the Brits can make something new and traditional at the same time. Dance hall rules.
This is now the fourth video in a row I watch from them here and I realize what s great music theory made. I was a fan in the 70s and even more so now.. the beat in every song gets you moving about from the very first note..
This is everything to me sends me back just close my eyes and I'm in my Fred Perry tonics Loafer's ✊
That chorus melody and composition has always made my brain tingle and my eyes mist up, I dunno what it is, it just sounds so perfect to me.
The lead singer reminds me so much of Thomas F. Wilson (Biff) from Back To The Future Lol.
These guys are forever great. Gotta love music for the love of music & that is what these guys have always represented.
i said this in my head aswell
I grew up loving Madness. First album I ever bought. Now I watch this video and think oh my god they all look so young!
Brilliant. MASSIVELY underrated band.
Roll on December in Newcastle!
I play this one to gauge the vibe
Saw them live on Thursday totally lived up to expectations one of the best bands I have ever seen definitely recommend. One of my all time favourite bands as nutty and as mad as ever
One of the best songs of Madness ❤
My favourite Madness tune.
these songs still resonate, still have an effect, are still miles better than what is released today..and STILL make me a kid just turning 13 again..probably about the best British Band still as well..i think all of us back in the day tried to model ourselves after the lads in Madness...haha..what memories
So are you a 1967 or 68
The most talented bands to come out of the eighties. Just when you think they are all about the nuttier songs, they come out with this little classic.
Madness always did those non pretentious videos for their songs, almost cheap and (very) cheerful, all of todays 'groups' could take some lessons here.
in the early 80s it was about great music, video was secondary
amen
Why did you put 'groups' in quotes?? Qualifying as a group does not require any specified level of talent.
I find them rather pretentious tbh
That's because they were a bunch of guys just out of school on a small budget
Brilliant cheerful band. jeez music was awesome back in the day
hello, how are you doing it is nice meeting you here
Mike Barson's rise and fall piano is just great on this.
R I PTerry hall bless you bro sadly missed true legend ✊
Why put that on Madness song?
@@grahamcheesman2252 coz it was a mix n I made a mistake as uve now pointed out
@@PJ-sr3er haha I was just curious lol, both great ska bands. Take care 👍
@@grahamcheesman2252 I love 💕 bit of ska take care fam one love 💕
@@PJ-sr3er thanks ❤
I always thought this phrase
"Been on the telephone for an hour
We hardly said a word "
Really nails it.
Mike Barson's best penned song.
What an era
Big thanks to madness - one of my all time favourite bands - growing up as a 70's and &.80's kid - Suggs and the boys helped me through my adolescents.
42 years and still sounds so fresh.
Dude this was released 2011 🤦♂️
@@jamesritchie3562 This song was released in 1979 from their debut album 'One Step Beyond'. The boys were all so young then.
@@jamesritchie3562 I don’t know if your joking or not
@@p3dantry obvious isn’t it?
@@jamesritchie3562 not really
The second best song Madness ever did.
My father told me about Madness when I was 8 years old.
The first CD I listened to every day was Divine-Madness.
I love it.
Mike barson was this groups mastermind.did a good job.
I was in England in 1981....lots of memories. And this song is the one I love most
I used this song as a checklist for deciding if a girl is a keeper. It served me well.
I don't think there's another band that has done so many songs that hold so many great memories for me. What a great band.
The camera looks so good for 1979
some of the best bands ever always seem to come out of the UK. Just my opinion.
@Death Hand Studios and "Japan ", do me a favour , what are you on about
And a good one too.
Because English is their first language!
one of the best pop songs ever
MAAAAADNEEEEESSSSS❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️💋🏆👑
Nearly 2020 and still pure class 👏🏻
Used to think, Madness is kids music.
Now that I'm 36, I finally get the lyrics, particularly this one: soooo true! :)
Anyway, great band, great fun!
Balázs Döme
I get you, but House of Fun? Got to have come of age to understand that one
Balázs Döme I’m 56 and love them more now than back in the 80’s.
@@tomduggan8044 Of course lol. As kids we were oblivious to the lyrics haha
I'm not sure at what stage in your life you thought this was kids music, seeing as you were only a kid yourself when Madness was in their prime
Saw them live last night, they were absolutely phenomenal. This song was amazing live, screamed the words so loud ive practically lost my voice. I really thank my teacher for introducing me to Madness, hes an absolutely amazing teacher. Im 12, I only started listening last year, but I'm so damn happy I did. My amazing teacher was doing reading comprehension with us and our task was the lyrics to Baggy Trousers, and that got me and my best friend into them quite quickly. we went home that day, we called each other and just listened to a bunch of their music together and we were both so happy! I ended up going to the concert with her :). Some of the people at my school call me a grandma for listening to them, or make fun of me because its "different" but I dont give a crap because Madness absolutely rule!! I'm really thankful I do have freinds who love madness and that I have people to talk about their amazing music with and that i can share songs with and stuff. This year, my mum got me the The Nutty Boys comic and the vinyl for The Return Of Los Palmas 7 and some other madness stuff for Christmas and I think ive read that comic about 30 times now! Oh, and the other day Chrissy Boy liked one of my twitter posts (it was this ridiculous story i wrote using like 38 madness song references) and honestly to say i was freaking out was an understatement. Im really happy i discovered Madness and two-tone when i did because that genre of music is awesome, and i was feeling really down because my dad was in hospital and me and my mum were doing bad financially, but they brought some well needed joy into my life, from their music videos to their amazing story telling through their songs! its also helped me follow my own little musical journey, and i was very inspired by Woody's drumming and i saved up for a electric drum kit and started playing drums myself! Its one of my favourite things to do now, and since i started playing drums (4 weeks ago) ive learned about 14 madness songs!! i hope to be as good a drummer as woody one day, and ill keep practicing and maybe be in a band myself!!
For anyone else feeling out of place just for the music they listen to, remember, dont listen to what anyone has to say, because you are probably cooler than them.
there's no school like the old school
This made me smile :D
@@anam6845Me too mate, that’a wholesome story right there.
I discovered madness through my parents when I was like 13, I’m 17 now and still listen to them and thankfully got to see them last year, great to see more young people listening to madness!
good for you. Keep on keep on get. have a listen to some specials and the beat.
Why was this 80s simpleness so brilliantness..
Because it was the early days of a still growing industry. People back then did it for passion, now they do it for fame and money, as a result the industry has become a shadow of its former self.
Close, released 21 December 1979
My favourite song ever 😊😊😊wat a fantastic band the 80s r the best😊😊😊
hello, how are you doing it is nice meeting you here
1:08 that's some potential meme quality
Very Nice Meme
I'm 48 now grew up with madness and they still make me feel like I'm 25 again awesome times, and I miss the dress sense, thanks madness.
Madness were just, Too Cool 😎
Listening to this in 2020, still finding it hard to believe that this song is 40 YEARS OLD!!
As a kid, I always thought Suggs was Biff from Back to the Future 😂
"sometimes I like to stay in & watch tv on my own every now & then" - under-rated lyric imho. Just made a GIF of it as it has stayed with me over the years & every guy, I'm sure, has thought the same.
Seems like yesterday and a lifetime ago when this came out. Secondary school and my biggest problem was getting my homework in on time.
Madnees.....mi época la mayor música.....recuerdos maravillosos desde México, Torreón Coahuila.....😘😍🤗
I never thought about Mexicans having great taste in music but you have put me in my place with your comment, you must have great taste in music cos anyone who listened and liked madness knows great music when they hear it
I'm 15 years old npw but when i was younger my dad made a CD with madness for me. I lpved snd still love the music from them!
KskwiSkw local hero facebook you been single
:P
You are lucky to have a dad like that
Your Dad's a Legend m8 Well done for appreciating it
ItSybNL im 23 first heard madness when i found a old cassette with madness on it (think it was called madness madness the best of), still love them today
Still listening love it xx
hello, how are you doing it is nice meeting you here
El loco mike Barson is the boss🤟🎹 greetings from Argentina
My hubby loves this band from the 1980s he's mad about them but I love him
It's the piano that does it for me...
I remember hearing this in a Punk rock bar.
Madness !!!!!!!!!!classic
So witty! We've all had those never ending over-analysing conversations.
2020 and still listening. Reminds me of sitting at Perivale underground station waiting for the train to Northolt, blimey 40 years ago.
Who would get mad at this cute and lovely guy ?!!..it's very nice song ..thank you so much 👍
I would.. if he touched My Girl! 🤣
I forgot how awesome that bass line wass.
You guys are so talented! Love you're music and musical flair!
Always have!
