The Harder They Come
Are You Coming (With Me)
In My Street
This track, unearthed from the archives of the past five years, was penned by Suggs and reflects on living in the same house for 40 years. It first emerged during the 2018 Arena Tour and the 2019 XL Tour. Unfortunately, the track lacks any ...
Stepping Into Line
"Stepping Into Line" is another tune from Mr Hasler's pen. "John wrote the first half of the words, and I wrote the other half," says Suggs. Chris describes it as "my moment of glory, trying to keep it all together!" Well, it does race away ...
Israelites
Mike: I was with my brother Dan, we were on our pushbikes, it was the school summer holidays of 1968. We were slowly making our way out of the grime of North London on the long journey to our holiday destination, a railway cottage in Santon ...
Mrs. Hutchinson
Big Time Sister
Chris: I've got so many songs that I've written with Lee that have never seen the light of day, and I didn't want these to get lost. In the end, a lot of mine and Thommo's songs ended up on the 'box set' version of the album. So what happened ...
You Keep Me Hanging On
Mark: People always say, I remember where I was and what I was doing, when I first heard that song. For me, *You Keep Me Hanging On', by The Supremes, is just one of those songs. 1967. Sitting in the kitchen, eating porridge, getting ready to ...
Don’t Look Back
Embarrassment
'Embarrassment' dealt with an altogether more serious issue. Lee Thompson's 17-year-old sister Tracy had become pregnant with a mixed-race child, which caused consternation among some of the family's friends, relatives and neighbours, who ...
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.' ...
Primrose Hill
Whistle in the Dark
Never Knew Your Name
Mike: 'Never Knew Your Name' was an old song that'd been kicking around for ages. After the band broke up in the 80s, I was working with Suggs on a project together. We did quite a lot of recording over a few years, and then he got talked into ...
Rockin’ in A♭
Dan Barson was the singer of Bazooka Joe, a north London rock and roll band that started in 1970. His brother Mike used to see them play in the mid-1970s. After seeing the Sex Pistols, the band changed and is now better known as Stuart ...
You Are My Everything
That Face
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, ...
You Said
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 ...
