Click here for more Madness: madnessband.ln...
If you’ve ever wished that Madness had made an official promo video for their very first hit single, ‘The Prince, wish no more! This brand new video was created using upgraded footage from the band’s 1981 biopic, Take It Or Leave It. Showing the band recording, playing live and generally capering about, it has all the hallmarks of a classic Nutty promo.
Lyrics
Buster, he sold the heat with a rock-steady beat
An earthquake is erupting, but not in Orange street
A ghost-dance is preparing, You got to help us with your feet
If you're not in the mood to dance, step back, grab yourself a seat
This may not be uptown Jamaica, but we promise you a treat
Buster, bowl me over with your bogus dance, shuffle me off my feet
Even if I keep on runnin', I'll never get to Orange street
So I'll say there's nothin' left to say, for the man who set the beat
So I'll leave it up to you out there, to get him back on his feet
Buster, bowl me over with your bogus dance, shuffle me off my feet
Even if I'll keep on runnin', I'll never get to Orange Street
Bring back the…
Who is the…
We want the…

As a naturally curly haired lad, I always desperately wanted to be able to have a Suggs style pseudo-flattop haircut when I was a kid 😂. No amount of my Gran saying “all the girls love a man with curls” could sway me! What wonderful music it is, and always will be. Fantastic video too.

Grans are just the best. My SE London gran didn't take shit from anyone! She ruled the roost and even though she's gone now she's still slipping me some extra pocket money. "Don't tell your mum and dad....." 😉

I'm 56 and was briefly a punk for a year or two....78,79.....then madness literally exploded onto the music scene...brilliant band, superb tunes!!!..Once that madness beat hit you, there was no going back, in the Discos when there music came on i had no choice but to dance...end of!!!Lol...they kept me fit.

Greatest thing, these chaps looked so loose and non serious, having & making fun all the time. But underneath - some brilliant instrumentalists and composing enduring songs after they'd given old ska greats a new lease on life. Hard to say which Tu Tone band I love the best, but Madness is on top absolutely

Growing up in the 80’s in the US, I didn’t hear of Madness until I saw a video (One Step Beyond) on MTV. I Immediately went out and bought what I could find on imports. Loved them ever since. Such great music and the zaniness they show in their videos is fantastic. Silly that this came out today. I was just watching their Der Wixxer video of It Must Be Love, just last week!!
