@@kidkique yeah of course, but that’s why I said “real friendship” rather than just “friendship”. Look, it’s just my opinion but back then your friends were almost more like family. The endless hours spent together playing football, drinking, whatever…. To me I don’t see that with friendship groups anymore. I have kids in their teens and 20’s and friendship now is mostly online, like Instagram, or long calls on WhatsApp, all a little fake and throw away in my opinion.

As an American of the same age, I am very jealous. It would be 1982 and "Our House" before I heard them, and another year or 2 before I found out I was a Ska fan. That's when I found out that Madness, The Specials, and the English Beat represented a whole different genre. Today, I'm thinking about going back to my flattop

Omg they were CUTEEEEEEE!!!!

just better times weren't they, brilliant love to go back and stay there
