@peterbasher - has Suggs every explained the lyrics to this song. Is it straightforward ?

@dreamcastII The lyrics are the memoirs of Lee Thompson.

Great song from a great album - pity it wasn't released as a single (along with 'Victoria Gardens').

Keep Moving a splendid piece of work. What did let it down though was the use of drum machines.This sounds amazing live, with a proper drum sound.

'Keep Moving' was maybe the greatest album Madness has ever created but still the most underrated. Beautiful piece.

Agreed. They should sneak a few of these into their sets. Proper fans love these albums. (I know they hated recording 'Mad Not Mad' but some of the tunes on there are so hooky and downright enjoyable I'd love to hear them live.)

Well put.
