Seriously Madness and The Specials etc... seemed to appeal to young kids, i as 11 and i loved them, Probably cuz they were fun!!! Fun!!! people do you remember that int he top 40???? fun????? 80'S music in general was fun.
@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.
That's so true. I've just said that on another clip..well, something like that. But turn this on up loud and no one needs convincing to dance to this and it's so much fun!
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.
