The Law According To Dr. Kippah

The Law According To Dr. Kippah

At first, I noticed the backdrop; it appeared to be a clip of the Main Line from Charing Cross to London Bridge, a route I used to take from work back to Dartford every day. However, I need help understanding this track. The live version had no ...
Circus Freaks

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 ...
Bullingdon Boys

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 ...
C’est La Vie

C’est La Vie

La Luna

La Luna

Chris: 'La Luna' was the only song I wrote on the album. We'd been playing it live before we recorded it, and [bassist) Graham Bush and Woody had this bit that was quite heavy, and I didn't like it. And we recorded the version on the album, and ...
Forever Young

Forever Young

Lockdown And Frack Off

Lockdown And Frack Off

Chris may have been experimenting with a Casio PT-1 mini-keyboard from the 1980s to create new material during the lockdown. The track's rhythm, reminiscent of a train, builds a palpable sense of tension. The lyrics are severe and cautionary, ...

Death Of A Rude Boy

Death Of A Rude Boy

Mike: 'Death Of A Rude Boy' is a great track. I wasn't so mad on the rude boy thing - we were never anything to do with rude boys, it was The Specials that were always going on about rude boys, and some of them had a Jamaican connection so it ...

Madness

Madness

According to the back sleeve of One Step Beyond..., there are seven songs on each side, and at the end of side two, "Mummy's Boy" is swiftly followed by "Chipmunks Are Go!" Imagine the looks of glee on every young rude boy and rude girl's face ...
The Young and the Old

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!
