Baby Burglar
During the performance, Suggs had a momentary lapse in the lyrics, but it didn't detract from the overall quality of the track. Bedder's bass line stood out beautifully in the mix, adding a solid foundation that enhanced the song's groove. I ...
No Reason
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 ...
Blue Skinned Beast
So Alive
Mike: My wife loved 'So Alive' very much as a demo. I like that song, it's heartfelt. Even though we were having some difficulties, at the same time, creatively, Cathal was in a good place and was writing some really good stuff.
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 ...
Rise And Fall
You Are My Everything
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 ...
Time For Tea
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.

Swan Lake
"One Step Beyond..." album by Madness includes four cover versions, and "Swan Lake" is one of them. Interestingly, it's a cover of The Cats' version, released between 1968 and 1970, which itself was a reggae version of "Swan Lake." Mark ...
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!
Lola
Lee: 20 years after its release, Chris & myself wrote our inspired version, 'Mistress, Mistress' - it sounded fab but, as agent 1 would say, 'this song is available absolutely nowhere!' Lola obviously had an unearthly effect on myself as ...
Madness (2-Tone Version)
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 ...
Overdone
Lee reflects on his relationship with his mother, acknowledging the difficulties that came with it. He caused her a lot of stress in his younger years, but eventually found a passion for playing the saxophone and became quite skilled.
