Tarzan’s Nuts

Tarzan’s Nuts

Practically an instrumental with a few lines of banter to kick it all off, it's hardly surprising that these days, the band has a very shaky recollection of how the song came about.

You Said

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 ...
In The Middle Of The Night

In The Middle Of The Night

The band has a collective memory of Suggs getting the idea for the song from a genuine newspaper article about a knicker thief seeing his own description and photo-fit in the papers and making a dash for it.

Not Home Today

Not Home Today

Written by Suggs and Bedders the song 'Not Home Today' has a reggae influence and is about how people make excuses to hide the fact that a family member has been sent to borstal or prison. This theme of a life of crime is also present in ...

Woody: I'd written a song that was a bit Kings Of Leon-ish, rough, straight, lots of guitar. It sounded fucking great. I played it to Nick, because I needed a melody and some lyrics. He said, "All I've got is a chorus: 'I feel like running out ...

Let’s dive into the brilliance of ‘No Reason’. This track is a shining gem among Madness's repertoire, radiating with the powerful, evocative lyrics that have become a hallmark of Suggs’s songwriting genius. It doesn't just hold its own; it ...
Mistakes

Mistakes

According to John Hasler, the band played a two-chord vamp, and the songwriter wrote the lyrics in the next room. On the other hand, Cathal admires the lyrics of "Mistakes," saying that it is an astute and poignant observation of life at a ...

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 ...

Lee: Though Bruce Ruffin's version was plushly produced, the 'nursery rhyme' middle 8 always annoyed us so this was replaced by a James Bond feel with a dodgy sax solo over her. Trumpeter Simon Wilcox played a slurred, almost drunk-sounding ...
Run For Your Life

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 ...
If I Go Mad

If I Go Mad

The track is a magnificent piece of music that should have been the first single. Originally debuted during the lockdown in the one-off show "The Get Up!" in late 2022, it quickly stood out. Suggs' vocal delivery is flawless, likely because he ...
