In the Rain

'In The Rain' was initially relegated to the 12-inch single of 'My Girl' as an 'otherwise unavailble track' but was an overlooked gem, 'In The Rain', which shared much of the same air of pathos as the A-side with its tale of being jilted on a ...

C’est La Vie

Madness has done it again! While it may not be a US number one, it has earned a spot on the B List on Radio 2. From the Act 1 introduction to the newly minted saxophone intro, "C'est La Vie" will have you hooked from the start. Lee's classic ...

Grey Day

Mike wrote "the song "Grey Day" before the band became a success in the UK music scene. The first performance came back in 1978 at Acklam Hall, when the band was known as "The North London Invaders."

Herbert

Suggs composed Herbert with Mike Barson. Two weeks before "Can't Touch Us Now", the album's release, the song "Herbert" was released as a teaser on 14 October 2016. It was accompanied by an animated lyric video in the style of the album's artwork.

Suggs says that my memory could be more precise with many songs he wrote with Mike. From what I recall, this tune was written by Mike in the days when we rehearsed in the disused dentist surgery in Finchley. Mike had the title and some of the ...

Run For Your Life

The album's tracks have a strong seventies vibe, and this particular song boasts a disco-funk sound. Written by Foreman, it features a confident rhythm, a dynamic threefold bass line, and a dominant horn section with repetitive riffs. The ...

Circus Freaks

Chris: Woody wrote 'Circus Freaks' with Lee. It was quite a 'rock'-type song. It was good, though the guitar wasn't loud enough. Mike: I was playing the piano so hard on 'Circus Freaks' some of my fingers started bleeding. I'm used to doing ...
