My brother, our mate James and myself used to dance outside a pub in Hayes at the weekends in the summer holidays to the sounds of Madness. We used to request the songs through the window :)
Good times.
James is no longer with us, but the tunes of Madness and other two tone bands bring back many happy memories.
I remember Madness and chelsea were as one listening to this and then off on a Saturday to "The Bridge' funny how music brings back memories. Remember seeing Suggs in the Shed back in the late 70's . Good times
when darkness hits the town, and there's washing on your line, get your knickers down...! classic!

@MadnotMad79 I got it from Google, if you type Madness into Google images it's on the first set of results.
themodette 1 year ago 5
@MadnotMad79
at that minute, if you can't find it on google, pause the song at that time, and press Ctl+Sys Rq/Prt Scrn.
After that, go into paint, and paste it into the paint document. crop it however you want.
