  • worst version ever recorded. btw. I'm a huge Madnes fan, and I do like Shame + scandal. got this song in different versions and languages (Italian, French, even Bavarian) but this is crap.

  • feckin great

    

  • How can anyone dislike this song it's fantastic by an older Madness,but still making great music.

  • it's not bad this version, but i prefer the60's version by Lance Percival. The second verse after he's told he cant marry his sister, is different in the original. "Weeks went by and the summer came down & soon another girl n the Island he found, he went 2 his poppa 2 name the day, & this time his poppa shock his head & did say, U cant marry this girl, I have 2 say no, the girl is your Auntie but your granny dont know!"

  • 27 people are sane lol

  • BOB MARLEY AND PETER TOSH SANG THIS!!!!!

  • Theyre so old now but still so much swagger!

  • @kingkonggotnothing Forever Young, one might say....

  • wait... something is getting hard.

  • the lyrics are hilarious!!!!..... classic shizzle right here...

  • shame they had to take the pop route after there national front following

    thats showbiz!!

  • @thackerb67 well they said from the start that they would adapt to the times no matter where that took them

  • I def prefer the original

    

  • I love Madness, really, but half of the time I just saw people bumping each other and girls nearly got eaten by a few horny boys :/ Too much! I love you guys but that's too much :|

  • @LittleMissJoky

    The video is kinda relevant to the video.. somehow.

  • how cum these guys doesnt seem to get old? they still look & sound the same during the 80s. r these guys taking drugs

  • @nordg1 Good drugs!!! i get High just listening to the BEST BAND EVER!!!!!

  • This is the first time I've seen this. What a great song.

  • 25 people married their sister.

  • I found this cheasy danish version from 1965

    watch?v=nHdU-Q1Qtg0&NR=1

    lol

  • @joyeuxpetale as far has i know the first version was Shawn Elliott but the chances are this was a cover of Sacha Distel's version

  • I love Madness!

  • this song is world drop epic! xD I've loved it for years ^^

  • This is like an episode of Jerry Springer.

  • Mr Barzo is very smexy in this vid!

  • this first came out way back in 1965 by a reggae artist called Shawn Elliot, great tune

  • @JazzFunkSouldier in 1965 in france, the "surfs" have sung that in french, i thought the french version was the first real one! do you know?

  • Sounds like my family !!! Watch out if you trace your family tree ... the skeletons start rattling out !

  • @burnt62 You are so right, best not to shake the tree to hard, lol.

  • ska ska!!

    madness i love it!!!

  • this is music to grind down too haha askaskaskaskaska

  • Madness as good now as they ever were

  • just heard this song on the radio it's geniusly. :D

  • horibble quality! Great song though

  • Classic but too much sex for a madness video

  • @SinatraSwing Did you copy that comment from above by any chance?

  • This song cracks me up.

  • Sorry, I can´t see any kind of sex at that video! Probably some people don´t know, what sex is. In Germany we would say: "Du bist verklemmt". Very nice tape.

  • Q mamada de video y rola, pinche video parece de reggeaton...IT`S A SHAME!!!!!!!

  • @blondedrummergirl 17 me haha been to a concert of theirs and got a few of their albums, listened to a lot of their songs too so theirs a few of us who are young and are fans! haha

  • j'adore les paroles =)

  • The 18 who disliked are bastards (literally).

  • Very HOT!! OOOO!!

  • the german version by El Bosso & the Ping Pongs is a little bit better, sorry

  • The origins of the song date back to the 1940s. Calypso singer Sir Lancelot performs it in the film "I Walked with a Zombie" in 1943

  • Simply Perfect

  • @NervousPancake

    i disagree there not enough :D

  • luv madness since little

    nearly 17 and never disliked 1 of their songs

    you cant beat them

  • my parents.

  • i looooooooooove maddness eversince i was born im 16 an there biggest fan for my age i mean, im not THE biggest fan i do love you maddness, mostly graham xxxxx :D

  • captin birdseye shure can sing

  • Classic tune sung by Lord Tanamo. Madness does it justice.

  • MADNESS !!! BELFAST SALUTES YOU FROM THE 80,s to this present day

  • sounds like 'cecilia'?

  • Mike looks very nice in this video love the dancing!

  • carl looks gorgeous , love u carl xxx

  • This should be the theme tune to jeremy kyle XD

  • They played here last year I stole the madness sign off their dressing room :)

  • restecpe

  • where's Chrissy boy!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

  • actually, the guitarrist in 2005 was Kevin Burdett, in replacement of Chris, that's why he isn't in the video... but Kevin isn't there too, he did just small appearances in NW5, Sorry, and some Live events, replacing Chris in those years, but playing in all studio songs of Dangermen Seasons cd.

  • and I have to add that Kevin Burdett appeared in It Must Be Love (Wixxer version).. you can see it with Chas, Woody and Suggs, playing a tennis' racquet as a guitar, very awesome video.

  • @ArmosMod Chris Foreman played on all of the Dangermen Sessions recordings except for Rain and Lola.

  • @chapsticklolz Chrissy boy left during this period. He's back now though.

  • simple as simple MADNESS you need to know the music no in between !!!! MADNESS MADNESS THEY CALL IT MADNESS

  • IT's not bad, but I prefer the 1965 version by Lance Percival.

  • man that is alot of porkpies (type of hat were the top sinks in a bit)

  • cause madness were rudeboys most poeple that listened to them were rudy's

    most if not all of us wear pork pie hats =)

  • A good song, but I have a hard time tolerating a Madness video without Chris Foreman!

  • same as me i cant tolerate seeing a video or performance without Barso!!

  • Comment removed

  • I'm sorry,I really like Madness but this is absolute rubbish.Leave this song to a Caribbean band lads.

  • I prefer their cover of The supremes song, You keep me hanging on. But this cover is fucking awsome!

  • the original is much much better!!

  • Too much sex for a Madness clip.

  • I agree to much sex

  • There is such a thing?

  • @TheGend I suppose you think Welcome to the house of fun is about and joke shop?

  • @TheGend noooo haha. that amount is fine. :P

  • @TheGend

    Sorry, I can´t see any kind of sex at that video! Probably some people don´t know, what sex is. In Germany we would say: "Du bist verklemmt". Very nice tape.

  • @TheGend but that's what the song is all about!

  • @TheGend Are you listening to the words?

  • @TheGend It's a scandal.

  • @TheGend No. I have always wanted to tear off Graham's clothes and throw him down, so this feels fitting. As a matter of fact, I still do. ; )

  • make this a song will go straight up charts !!! sgo madness

  • Well done, lads.

  • Best Band... but possible the worst video... or should I more say the least good video or the least funny !

    Nothing is completely perfect !

    We all love you, Madness !!!!

  • Comment removed

  • don't knock this crap it was a warm up for the one of the best albums this decade "the liberty of norton folgate" viva los palmos seven

  • madness was the music of my generation all the songs were sing along and everyone my age knows the words and knew which dance accompanied it , perhaps you have to stop trying to be cool and just listen to the music and enjoy it and have a laugh

  • why do you leave these comments or watch this then u pillock madness r the sex and i hope somebody sets your house on fire!!

  • I'm 14 mate.

    But I'll admit this song isn't exactly their best. By the same token though, this song, which is...one of their worst...is a million times better than anything released in the past decade. The 2000s in themselves must be the most horrific decade in history music-wise.

    So for the time being, I'm sticking with Madness.

  • I agree with totally. Being the same age I can fully relate to what you think of the rubbish that the Noughties have produced. Madness is one of the greatest bands of all time, and not exactly their greatest song, I'm not too keen on the not-so-rando video, but like you said, better than anything released in the past decade.

  • Streetlight Manifesto?

    Leftover Crack?

    Mustard Plug?

    Catch 22?

    NOFX?

    Rancid?

    ...There has been a huge amount of good music released in the past 10 years

  • Excellent cover. I love the video and the key/tempo changes.

  • Is that Barbara Windsor in this video? Brilliant song by the way. Great lyrics. Hahahaa.

  • awesome song

  • i love it!

  • ska rules

  • i love this song

  • This is a plague. I want to see (and hear) the original, but I can find nothing but this not so straight ****. I want the wailers and the original! Capitalism kills music!

  • The most next thing you can find about the original is a sacha distel's song called "scandale dans la famille"(yes I know,in this,we can't create all our songs ourself:-(...)

  • Bahahahaha! You're silly. :3

  • excellent cover, i love madness!!!

  • LMAO

    Shes your sister, but your mother dont know.

    THEN! Your daddy aint your daddy but he dont know.

    LMFAAAAAOOOOOO

  • no this is an old song from the dangermen

  • is that also a new song?

  • Shoutout to anyone who went to see Madness in the MEN Area about three years ago, maybe more!!

    Say if you went to see them there, i'll add you as a friend

  • CALYYYYYPSO!!!!

  • SKAAAAAAAA

  • bring back the 80s reminds me of the old DAYS

  • Madness will always be Madness. A different vid, but with the greatness of Madness in the bottom :)

  • I grew up listening to the 'authentic' calypso version. I enjoy both versions, just as I love the Kinks' original version of 'Lola', but still enjoy Madness' cover version. I suppose it's because they're not purporting to improve either, but just seem to be playing them for the joy of it.

  • Yes I think youre right.. that is important in a cover version

  • No offense to their interpretation of the song, I personally prefer a more authentic calypso version of this.

    Given their chosen style the perform it well, I just think it takes away some of the soul from the song.

  • Oh how the might have fallen,,,

  • Just saw them live the other night :)

  • Could be no better, great song, great performance

  • great to see they can still cut it

  • this doesn't look like a real music video..

  • kickass cover:P

  • madness,great soung ,great band.

  • I don't care i think it's quite catchy, yeah it might not be like house of fun or night boat to cairo, but i like it :)

  • Haha love it :)

  • I'm a huge Madness fan but i don't like this, the production is overdone. They sound much better playing live.

  • they have stepped over the boundaries

    bring back night boat 2 cairo , real madness

  • /reggae

  • this songis amazing, and suggs' dancing is awesome! classic ska

  • IMPRESIONANTES

  • i never heard of this song i just clicked on it cos it was madness then i realised this is a kl song!

  • This is the best version of all the rest. Very funny and awesome!

  • either he's ripping Dickie Barret here or Dickie ripped this singer's style.

  • I loved this song as a kid, and he does a bang up job covering it.

  • I just watched the house of fun.Hes clearly lost his former self.

  • ah well, we all turn older, don't we? =;o)

  • Not me.Ill fight it:)
