MIS Maps - Capital City Compilation
Loading...
Uploaded by MISTV1 on Dec 3, 2008
The sparkling songs of British pop band Madness are replete with references to their homeland capital city. The views of seven song writers upon a city that is forever London. Now thanks to fan site MIS ONLINE and Google Earth software you can download and surf maps that roughly pin point areas directly referenced in over 25 years of Madness hit singles, golden album tracks or b-sides. From the "high road" sung about in the early Nutty Theme to the Camden name dropping in The Dangermen's cover of Dreader Than Dread. Drive your Magic Morris Minor on a Dove's eye view from Primrose Hill to Victoria Gardens. You can download these KMZ files from www.mis-online.net in the downloads MAP folder. And use them in your copy of Google Earth which is free from Google's website. They were mapped by new project manager for MIS MAPS David Moody from articles written in the MIS online weekly fans news email. 3 Maps are currently available. This one here you can see in this video preview is the capital city compilation, 25 years of Nutty London references. A 2nd map with world locations on "The Mad World Map", is available too and a 3rd map file takes you to NW5 and beyond in references to London made in new Madness songs written for forthcoming album "The Liberty Of Norton Folgate" due in 2009. There will more mad maps from David in the future.

Very cool. There's some references that even passed over my head. What about the A45 mentioned in "Driving in my Car?"
I've been able to pinpoint where the photo for "Absolutely" was taken using Google Earth.
