Give Me A Reason

Primrose Hill

Mr. Apples

The Young and the Old
Suggs says the track "The Young and The Old" is about getting drunk in the pub and noticing how old people acted younger as the evening went on. A very astute observation for a man of such tender years!

Day On The Town

Take It or Leave It
'Take It Or Leave It' was inspired by the name of a Roxy Music track and set to quirky music presumably inspired by Sixties spy films. Mike Barson mentioned that writing it was mainly a poetic expression of my continuing mental state, though I ...

Swan Lake (Live)
Swan Lake (Live) was featured in the motion picture Dance Craze, released in 1981, an American documentary about the British 2 Tone movement. The film was directed by Joe Massot, who originally wanted to do a film only about the band Madness, ...
