i no im leaving this comment but .. why do we need to know wat year it was a hit ^o) i mean we obv just come on this to listen to music not gett al te facts :L get a life huskernation
A dumbed down version of the Labi Sifri classic.Its ok for the kids though! If you remember the taste of Kentucky fried chicken in the 60s,compared to todays KFC,you my friend, will know what I mean!
Oh, Philip. You're no fun! I think this vid is precious, entertaining...a reinterpretation. I know how you feel about things we miss from the past..how about Drakes Cakes..or Bazooka Bubble Gum or more important things? Were they better then? No argument here. As for the video, I LOVE it. Unique, clean entertainment. The guys are adorable and the antics (bees & the birds, Dracula) make me LOL! everytime). Didn't know about Labi. That's nice, too. Thanks!
How is it "dumbed down"? i find it to be a very interesting arrangement instrumentally and rhythmically. It's only the video that is silly. I prefer this version. Labi is great but I find the original a bit sugary. This version moves me more (admittedly not if I'm watching the video).
Madness are a million times better than Blur, on every level. Blur are a good band, but to compare them to such an influential band as Madness is a bit of a non-starter. ;)
madness fans all of the world-we are waitig for you in gdynia, poland , 2-5 of july. visit our country & enjoy your favourite "mad music"! remember: opener festival 2009, have nice trip :).
Man, I remember this one girl in Junior High that loved this song, so every chance I had I dedicated it to her. Ironically, we ended up going our separate ways, but I'm sure she still thinks of me when she hears this song...
Don't get me wrong though! The specials do have the greatest album ever made hands down, but madness is just goofier I guess and that's what makes them so much better as a band and that's why there music video's are amazing!!!
And plus, listening to it with adult ears....what a fantastic musical arrangement! You just don't hear that kind of musical brilliance in songs these days.
I love Madness. I was 8 years old when this came out, it was such a great time to be a kid in Britain, there was that "Madness" vibe everywhere. This song reminds me of that time more than any other.
I love this song, I never get tired of hearing it... but whats with the guy at the end? he takes his sunglasses off and tries to look like he's singing along... Is he someone special?
