Madness - Baggy Trousers - Top of the Pops 1980 

I was 12 in 80. This song was an anthem at the school. Black uniform, hidden white Fred Perry shirt under blazer, white socks and porkpie hat.

I think most people under the age of 55 either is or has been a Madness fan at some point in their lives. I am 42 and still am.

dit is gewoon goud het lied zelf,de manier op hoe ze staan nooit genoeg van dit lied jullie zijn de beste

@TherMoJo Agreed. A lot of their melodies are very complex with several key changes and played very quickly. Like them or not, they were talented musicians who wrote crisp music.

Yeah Madness used to appear on Barney, Suggs was actually in the Barney suit one time.

Baggy Trousers!

No song gets a crowd going like this one

@melodicsweepea And still going strong now. Their 2009 Liberty Of Norton Folgate album is superb.
