Always love a bit of Madness. You've gotta hear Must be love, Baggy Trousers and One Step Beyond.

Good choices everyone. I was at school when baggy trousers came out, very real to us.

It's not the most well known one, but 'Night Boat to Cairo' is my personal favourite Madness track. You can tell they're having fun in their music videos, love their energy :)

Don't think Madness ever made it in North America but they were one of the biggest and most popular bands in the UK from the 1980s onwards really. They had 15 Top Ten singles on the charts in the 80s. and have been performing ever since.

My mother used to love Madness, especially this song. She's gone now unfortunately, she passed away a few years ago, shortly before my 18th birthday, but this song brings back so many good memories of her, she used to play this song all the time as I was growing up and I haven't heard it since ❤️ I didn't expect this today so thank you man for reacting to this. It was a nice surprise for me personally 🥲❤️

My favourite Madness song - had this one on vinyl back in the day. LOVE IT!!

‘Madness’ have always been one of my favourite bands. I can remember performing in ‘Our House’, which is a musical based around their songs, and that was how I was introduced to their back catalogue.

Ah used to love a bit of madness back in the day, nice one.

Excellent band, seen them live a few times and they were incredible

Madness 💕💕💕

A proper London group. I think I said on your Young Ones video that I’ve seen them live twice, their song “It Must Be Love” was mine and the wife’s first dance. Madness to me hasn’t had a single bad song, everyone is a toe tapper.

I saw Madness, live, in '80, at The Wirrina, Peterborough! Me & my mates, Jeff & Anthony all arrived on our bikes, me on my scooter, & the other two on their Yamaha mopeds, & all dressed up like smart young Mods! The rest of the audience comprised of around 1500 skinheads!!! 😲😲😲 It was ok though, cos Madness is all about enjoyment, not violence!! 😁

Nice one!! Madness are the epitome of 1980's British silliness and style. They've got loads of hits with great videos to react to - looking forward to it.

What I love about madness is no matter how silly their videos are their songs resonate with real life.

I absolutely love you, you're really getting into our english culture. I'm a 90s kid but I still love old school ska. You should listen to Dexys Middnight Runners (another band featured in the young ones). They have some classics

Madness completely British!! ❤️

One Step Beyond by Madness was the first album I ever bought. I don't think there is anyone who doesn't like them. So many great songs, but if you want another catchy one try Baggy Trousers.

Lovestruck is one of their later songs, worth a look. Our House was played over Buckingham Palace for the Olympics in London

Madness were brilliant. I loved them growing up.

Madness have performed our house on top of Buckingham Palace for the Queen's diamond jubilee and at the closing ceremony of the 2012 Olympics. House of fun is a good one by them as well

There’s loads of Madness compilations and every single track is a banger. They’re still amazing now. Their album The Liberty Of Norton Folgate from about 10 years ago is superb.

Great album

Madness are bloody great performers. Still going strong to this day. It's worth checking out some of their live stuff. Nice one on checking out this Proper British Band. I can see why they was in the Young Ones a few episodes back, this video does have the Young ones feel to it lots of randomness etc. Thanks bro.

Loved this one. Def want to check out more. Will do bro!

From 1979 to 1982 Madness just kept reeling off great songs. They did some good stuff in following years, but 79 - 82 was their heyday.

Madness were awesome. I was too young when they were at theyre peak but my older brother and sister loved them. From a 90s teen they remind me a bit of Blur with the quality and wit

Didn't know you did reactions on music! Madness are one of my all time favourite bands!!

Madness forever 😎

Madness made some great videos. It Must Be Love is another one to watch. If you like music videos then Siouxsie & The Banshees singing Happy House is another one to watch

A great Madness song.You will probably also like "Country House " by Blur. And, maybe even "Ebeneezer Goode" by The Shamen.

They sang that from the top of Buckingham Palace and are still making records. Try the song Herbert or Mr Apples from 2016 album Can't Touch Us Now. 👍🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🤠

Madness.greatest band ever,they made my youth fun

Suggs and the boys are national treasures over here great beats and great for the times

One step beyond is worth listening to madness were a typically british band our house featured in the opening ceremony of the london Olympics

One of our many National Treasures (TM).

Who can forget them performing this on THE YOUNG ONES

Haven't heard that in years! Glad you liked it.

They played "OUR HOUSE" on the roof of Buckingham Palace for the Queens 75th.

Seen madness twice now, 1st in Thetford forest then a 2nd time at Newmarket race course. Would also recommend night boat to Cairo, baggy trousers, house of fun, one step beyond and their cover of lola. Also ghost town by the specials

Pretty much how i remember my childhood. "our mum is so house proud, nothing ever slows her down and mess is not allowed".... Yeah, sorry mum!

you mentioned you remembered seeing them in the young ones, keep an eye out, you never know where they might pop up next.!!!!

Great band, same them live in London when I was a student

Rabbit hole lobe ...top man lots of love from london

Try The Proclaimers "I Gonna Be (500 miles) the most Scottish sounding song still very popular today. Composed of twin brothers Charlie and Craig Reid who never hide their thick Scottish accent in their songs.

Loving your reactions 👍

I love Madness. This was a top band back in my childhood.

Night boat to Cairo is very british too. Long live twotone ska! 🇬🇧

Our Hose was a Billboard number 7 hit in USA

If unknown origins interest you, have a listen to 'Tubular Bells'. You will hear the source of so many samples. Be aware, you will need approx 30 mins sat in a quiet room. 😁

They truly are mad but they are so funny and there songs are really catchy they bring back such great memories please react to them singing It must be Love 💕 and it would be brilliant to have some Elvis please check out American trilogy and If I can dream and Suspicious Minds from his show Aloha from Hawaii I’m on my knees begging 🙏 for you to react to Elvis thanks 🙏 Love 💕 from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🕺🏻🕺🏻👑👑🙏😘XXXX

def a fun song. i now can listen to this more and more each day holds up well today imo.

Best madness song is... one step beyond. You neeeeed to listen to it

React to another madness song called I like driving my car

they did an almost perfect cover of " it must be love" by labi sifferi ( i apologize in advance for the spelling =/ )

At the moment, we all need songs that will cheer us up and give us hope. my choices in this group are :- Fleetwood Mac - Don't Stop, Lou Reed - Perfect Day, Status Quo - Whatever you want or Simon Webbe - Coming around again. I can 100% recommend any of these songs to make you feel better

They sang this on the roof of Buckingham palice for the Queens birthday

My parents showed me Madness years ago & now they're basically the only band I listen to lol

Well done for showing madness,do more.There lots e.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

In one the Benidorm episodes Madness plays in Neptunes

Love a bit of Madness. One step beyond, Lovestruck, Baggy Trousers, Drip fed Fred

House of Fun by Madness is a fantastic song

if you enjoyed that song, put your feet up grab a beer and watch - Madness Rocks Big Ben - New Years 2018

Another great early madness snog is the business which was on the b side of baggy trousers

I love Madness, baggy trousers and wings of a dove are 2 of my favourite songs by them. The 80's were simpler times, people did and wore what they wanted without so much judgement, happier times.....or is that just my rose tinted glasses? 💛

Madness videos are so fun, watch all their 80s videos :)

Just checking out your reaction to madness. I was slightly too young to be a fan at the time but I'm definitely am now. Sometimes you forget how great certain artists and bands were. I definitely prefer older songs. I never thought I would get to an age where I couldn't name what song was at number one, wouldn't have a scooby. The housemartins are another band I've recently rediscovered x

Also heimatdamisch a German oompah band that put a twist on rock songs ,sweet child of mine is top notch try them.

madness made many great songs

Nice! :)

Madness actually appear in an episode of benidorm kid

Saffie was killed by the same group who murdered Lady Fatima and burnt down her house #theladyofheaven

Ah, the sound of my junior years. Fun fact... they used family houses and family members to film videos in their neighbourhood

Please react to Madness, one step beyond, baggy trousers, night boat to cairo, house of fun, embarrassment and so on, one of the best band of the 80's.

Brilliant song and a brilliant band, a British band I can recommend is Oasis and one of their best works is morning glory

Night boat to Cairo, Madness at their best

If we're doing music videos now, then the wordplay master *Lunar C* has to be on the list. He's funny too, as you'll see from his crazy videos and lyrics. Here's a few funny music videos: *Lunar C - Skwolla* *Lunar C - Chicken* *Lunar C - Mug* Plus there's his *Best of Lunar C - Don't Flop Rap Battles* compilation, where he rips people to pieces with funny bars.

I accidentally found out recently that the people playing *Lunar C's* mum and uncle in his *Chicken* video aren't actually his mum and uncle. *Stephanie Nuttal* the one playing his mum is a drummer and former member of the Argentinian rock band *Sumo.* *Jimmy Hibbert* the one playing his uncle is an actor, musician, writer and voice artist mainly for children's shows and films. He's wrote *Danger Mouse, Count Duckula, Sooty's Amazing Adventures, Dennis the Menace, Bob the Builder, Mr Bean: The Animated Series* etc, he's voiced characters in *The Wind in the Willows, The BFG, Truckers, Noddy's Toyland Adventures, Avenger Penguins, The Animal Shelf* etc (along with the previously mentioned shows he wrote) the most famous of his voices being *Baloo* from the various *The Jungle Book* TV shows and films, and he's acted in films like *Maleficent: Mistress of Evil.*

Got to love a bit of Madness. You have to check out Baggy Trousers, One Step Beyond or It must be love. To be honest pick pretty much any Madness song it will be great

Listen to"Blue Skinned Beast ". or Calling Cards".Madness tracks, the list could go on and on and on

Love Madness. This video is as english as fish n chips lol

Madness are fab even today, check out One step beyond

I really like your reactions, you are probably 30 years younger than me ,but you are the only one u have subscribed to.

Hi Rae thank you so much. I have listened to a few madness songs and cardiac arrest is one of them. Here is the link: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZGWtudaBhsuYkZc.html&ab_channel=bxkid7 and thank you so much for the support.

Do some Police, Tears For Fears, U2, Specials, Adam Ant, Big Country, Clash, Pistols, Damned, Jam, Blur, Oasis, Suede, Smiths, Morrissey, Duran Duran, Talk Talk, Dexy's, Erasure, Depeche Mode, Frankie ....

Try Letter From America by the Proclaimers

you need to listen to "yer da sells avon"

Did anyone suggest it must be love? If not, I did!

Check out cardiac arrest by madness

I feel you on the Hip Hop, I still listen to the 80's and 90's golden era stuff, but the art itself is dying big time. Other madness songs you will enjoy are "It must be love", "Baggy Trousers" and "One step beyond" just for starters.

Do some XTC.

Please react to status quo-Caroline kid!!!

Madness ?...so british !...

Two tone and ska the music that made white men like me dance (badly)

We ask you to do a reaction film (The Lady of Heaven)

No No No No No. Love and respect to all the people who suggested Madness songs and what great songs they are but it has to be either WINGS OF A DOVE or BED AND BREAKFAST MAN.

I like new wave... but songs like this is the reason I don't like 80's music lol
