The Business
'The Business' is an instrumental reworking of 'Take It Or Leave It' from the album 'Absolutely'. '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 ...
Culture Vulture
Okay, it’s been over 30 years in the making—well, not really. Though some might try to draw a strange connection to the song once heard in 1996 at Madstock, this is not that tune. The only common thread here is the title, 'Culture Vulture.' ...

How Can I Tell You
Chris: 'How Can I Tell You' was a Cathal song, but Suggs had something to do with the lyrics. I reggae'd it up a bit and did quite a good riff in the chorus.
Nutty Theme
We didn’t want to be ‘ska’ but to have our own sound,” says Suggs. Both he and Chris say that the “Steptoe & Son” theme was at the front of their minds here, too, along with “Billy Bentley,” a Kilburn & the High Roads song.

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 ...
