No Money

Forever Young
The band presented several songs from their latest album, "The Liberty of Norton Folgate," in three concerts held at London's Hackney Empire in June 2008. One of the songs that they played was 'Forever Young,' featuring a melodious tune. Suggs ...

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.

When Dawn Arrives

(You) Cant Keep A Good Thing Down
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 ...

Sign Of The Times

I Believe

March Of The Gherkins

Primrose Hill

Deceives the Eye
"Deceives the Eye" tells the true story of Chris Foreman being out and about with Thommo and Mike in Luton and finding himself on the wrong side of the law. "A few of us enjoyed the pleasures of shoplifting," Chris explains.

Bullingdon Boys
Madness today unveil snap release 'Bullingdon Boys'. The seminal British pop band's first new music since 2016, 'Bullingdon Boys' is a self explanatory, barbed swipe at the charlatans, rotters and chancers at the top of the tree who have done ...

Mr. Apples

Razor Blade Alley
Bands on the Two Tone Label had a following of skinheads. If you judged solely by the song title, "Razor Blade Alley," you might assume it was about mindless violence or football hooliganism.

Powder Blue
Mike: 'Powder Blue' was one of my favourite songs on the album. It was an old song, from back when I'd been working with Suggs, before he decided to do his solo career. He'd given me the lyric and l'd written the tune to it ages ago - it was a ...

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 ...

Shadow of Fear
"Shadow Of Fear" is a song that reflects the fear and paranoia of living in London, whether it is real or just imagined. "Not Home Today" is another track with a reggae influence and talks about how people make excuses to cover up the fact that ...

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 ...

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.' ...

Wings Of A Dove

Set Me Free (Let Me Be)
With his fifth composition on the album, Foreman presents a smooth yet dark track that instantly immerses you into the shadows of lockdown, evoking images of watching the sun and the moon and the seasons pass from the window of an empty room. ...
