Goddamn, I just love Madness! They're so cute, and besides that-- genius! I can't say I hate any of their songs. And I find that the songs that are less familiar to people-- like Our House etc, are the best songs by Madness. And Suggs is an angel, isn't he? They all are! Fuck, I'd love to see the 80s!

Amelia-Did you just say: I find that the songs that are less familiar to people-- like Our House etc, Ummm Our House was a big to really big hit single Worldwide + the album it came off: Rise + Fall was a hit + big hit in many countries....So confused here-You said etc so what other songs were you thinking of...I know you posted this a very longtime ago but still

This interview was done on the same day they taped the cafe/greasy spoon scene in Return of the Los Palmos 7 video.

"The ska, she is finished. No more Madness the ska". Fucking classic.

Suggs has a really strong north london accent in this. Compared to what he sounds like now.

Oh! Bedders and Woody are looking GOOD!! I love Bedders' voice. Cute! Does anyone know what bedders says after " I don't know, we're just on our own..." when Chris and Suggs are 'attacking him? :)

They wuz just kids! This screened on TV in Australia in April 1981 but was filmed in January 1981 - that means Suggs was 20 or almost 20, Woody was already 20, Bedders was 19, while Chrissy Boy was the elder statesman at the wise old age of 24!
