Well Done Guys. ALWAYS get the accompanying video with Madness songs like "Our House" and many others because they were a very successful London Ska/Rock Steady Band from Te 1980s but they are typically English and deliberately self-deprecating and funny hence the silly dancing :) They are mostly, CHELSEA F C Supporters and the whole Chelsea crowd often break into this when celebrating.A perfect example of this and well worth watching is this KZread Video: " Chelsea EPIC LIQUIDATOR, ONE STEP BEYOND, Amsterdam ". It is 4 minutes and Chelsea of London were playing AWAY in The Netherlands ....:) ENJOY and keep up the good work...

Madness we’re great in the early days .. got too commercial for me later on .. this was a good album.

Biggest selling band in the U.K. throughout the 80's. They were known affectionately as the Nutty boys. "Baggy trousers", "Night boat to Cairo", "Grey day", "It must be love", "In the city", "Our house", "House of fun" are all great tunes.

Someone may have said this already, but the song is actually a cover of an old Prince Buster song. Prince Buster was a huge Jamaican ska singer of the 60s. Definitely worth a listen, especially Hard Man Fe Dead and Take It Easy.

As someone else said, a famous 80's British band. A cross between New Wave and Ska. This is a good one and they have many others. "Our House" was probably their biggest hit by far and a really good one. "It must be love" and "House of Fun" are two of my favs.

As an old stager from the UK who's enjoyed Madness for 40 years, I love that you kids are loving this too. Madness are legends

This was one of the first 'Videos' back in the day. Warms my heart y'all 'get it'. For another treat from Madness try House of Fun.

That sax solo!!!! Brilliant

This was a video when the song first came that EVERYONE (no matter who you were) loved. I am very happy to see your guys have stumbled on to "Madness." If you already haven't check it out, please check "Once in a Lifetime" by the Talking Heads. That is another classic video you will never forget. Trust me! : )

Now this is England,...I think

This song officially registers on the Richter scale - check out the live performance from Finsbury Park :-D

Ska was a great time in British music and that’s coming from an old Rocker, These guys came up from just being a pub band to Stardom with their fun filled Ska.

As others have said, "Our House" by Madness was also very popular

I LOVE THIS SONG and I love that you guys love it too!

The guitarist in this band (Chris Foreman) used to live a couple of doors down from me when I was a kid, this was during the time they were really big in the UK.

Tha happiest banda ever!!! Who wouldn't enjoy being a member of madness for a day? Or being one of their roadies?

Our House,was their only big hit in America, but they have been popular for years, over in the U.K. A fun song they sing, is " Shame and Scandal".

We heard 'It must be love' and 'House of Fun' they use to get plenty of play of MTV when they use to play only music videos, they were fun videos to watch it.

Great band , with some great tunes, have saw them live several times, "Night Boat to Cairo" and "Baggy Trousers" are another couple of excellent dance tunes 😊

Are you sure the little things aren't just further away !

Yep. This was pretty much an instrumental (as was Return of the Los Palmos 7). Next, you have GOT to watch Night Boat to Cairo

The specials - Rat race. You’re gonna love it! Same time period and genre

Aahh, old school Madness - most would recommend 'Baggy Trousers', but you could also try out 'Tomorrow's Just Another Day', '(Waiting For The) Ghost Train' and an old classic 'Our House'.

This kind of music comes from Jamaica. It's called ska. It caught on in England in the late 70s and then later in the US. Hence the band Madness and others like The Specials and The (English) Beat.

I love maddnes and I love ska music its so uplifting thank you guys

Should check out The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, songs I suggest are The Impression That I Get, The Raacal King or Kinder Words just to name a few.

Seen Madness live in concert, believe me you cant stand still, top band. The videos are always funny, you need to see more

live performance is best house of fun, baggy trousers etc (tunes to make u dance)

I really enjoy watching you two😊

Nightboat to Cairo next please

One of my favs Madness songs cheers..

Madness greatest band to come out of England in the late 70s

" I Love little things" !!!!! I's so Cute and Tiny !! Lol I'm so glad to here that !!! HHHhhhhaaa : D

Night Boat to Cairo and Our House would be 2 more madness songs to listen to

The bit on the stairs at the beginning was one of a number of specially filmed clips for a video compilation, originally released on VHS in 1992.

Madness 🙌🏻 great band, worth checking out more of their music.

loved these and still do after 40 years,ska and two tone is great music

We had square dancing as part of PE in middle school. :)

Suggs, the lead singer of this band, is a die hard fan of Chelsea Football Club, a football (soccer) team based in London. Everytime Chelsea win a game at home, this is the 1st song they play in the stadium's speakers.

Play this anywhere in Britain & everybody gets up and starts to do wonderful crazy dancing

This was one of the first songs M Tv played. Watched it on hijacked cable, when you could still do that , about 1980-81

Great Reaction Guys. Madness once played in front of 500,000 in Brazil !

There is a band called The Selector, They did Ska & had a mixed races and a woman lead singer. They were about breaking cultural barriers. It set them apart and they're awesome. You should do a reaction to On My Radio & Too Much Pressure. You'll love these songs.

Seen Madness twice in concert. Its a party atmosphere. They eventually, played down from their early high tempo rhythm. To address mosh-pit crowd troubles. Hence why later Madness songs, are more mellow.

Give - Madness - Nightboat to Cairo at Pinkpop 2009 a try - There are some kids dancing on stage with the band, they are the children of the singers and are about your age

Way back when this song was new - late '70s? Early eighties? (those years are a blur for me, LOL!), my friends & I were walking to town and we all got in a line and did the Madness walk. Hilarious! We were laughin' our arses off the whole way. Anyway, Madness are still around and STILL brilliant.

damn.. ska was big when I was young.. I was really into it in the first half of high school.. Streetlight Manifesto, Reel Big Fish, Goldfinger, Mustard Plug, The Toasters, Operation Ivy..

One glass of wine is all that it takes with 'One step beyond'.

Love madness, I miss that Ska sound.

A great band i was 14 back in 1979 when that song came out.

A great bunch of musicians who never took themselves to seriously

Love this band.

Welcome to the wacky genius of Madness ‼️😁

One of the UK's National Treasures ,Madness 🎼🎶🎸🤣Gotta love the American reaction to this great group 🤣🎸🎼🎶

Brilliant band

There was a ska revival that started in the late 70's and early 80s and carries on today, it never went away and there is a huge Ska scene worldwide. Check out Prince Buster, early Byron Lee, etc. etc. etc.

Britain...cold weather, iffy food, wonky teeth ...but a love of great music and to dance. We get it . Most of the Jazz , soul , R & B vinyl pressed in the USA is now probably over here :D

Your reaction is priceless 🤣 ha ha ha 😂

Madness is a deep, deep rabbit hole. Enjoy yourselves.

madness our the best group from where i live in london england ..i know them ..

SKA is the shit! A total vibe of its own🏃🏻

the chorus is to the too the beat, too the beat ( dance), whatever you want and have fun.

Saw these at the Rainbow when I was 17….great fun

My favourite band, they always had humour and a great feel. Biggest song was Our House, then there is there nostalgic take on school, Baggy Trousers, Cardiac Arrest which is a song about a stress induced heart attack, all with a lot more words than this, though they did romance too, with My Girl and It Must Be Love. Always had silly intro on their videos.

Dance to Madness!

IT'S-ABOUT-DAMN-TIME!!!! Follow the SKA Rabbit Hole. I would go from a Van Halen Show to a Ska Show in one weekend. Ska is Dance Hall. Ska is Fashion. Ska is BLACK AND WHITE REBELLING TOGETHER. SKA IS ALL

If you ever see a party or wedding in Britain this is the dance all the men do when this is played especially if they've had a good drink no matter what age they are they all think their cool and we love them for it

dancing is an art .. i danced from three yrs old until i started to hve my family at 20 then stoped , my son is now 19 and i can still bend and shape my body into some of the styles i did back as a kid.. a lot of ppl still think i'm in my twenties but i'm acc 39 and looking forward to turning 40 🙈😂 i bet it will all jst hit me in my forties an i,ll start to look old then 🤷‍♀️🙏🏻

The first time I saw this video I was in a bar in a little German Town called Alex's and I thought this was one of the coolest things I've ever seen in my life. I was pretty drunk at the time too but I still think it's awesome sober

One step beyond was the first hit record by madness from 1979.

Another one from the same era was The Specials, originally The Special AKA with the song Gangsters, a bass line to die for!

So many songs to mention look them up an absolute British treasure

That's a famous Camden (London) Rock pub called the Dublin Castle, and Madness took their name from Prince Buster's (SKA) track Madness (they call it madness). Oh, and the little sax is a plastic toy

I play this all the time and chelsea fan but said to my dog if the bad men came in I couldn’t breath he smothered me so much lol

“Skankin to the rhythm of the music by my side”

specials, the jam, madness and even buster blood vessel

This is ska music, which came out of Jamaica in the 50s and 60s. Other bands in Britain playing ska were The Specials, The Beat, The selector and more. Madness were all about fun and happiness . They played a gig on their 25 anniversary (I think) in London's Hyde Park. The dancing was so vigorous it registered 4.2 on the Richter Scale!! I defy anybody to listen to this tune and keep their feet still! I can't and I'm 65 and have loved madness since 1982.
