    Fun fact: the song was all finished, mixed and produced, but when presented to the record label executives they felt it needed a chorus. Madness went back into the studio came up with and recorded the “our house, in the middle of our street” bit, which became the chorus and was spliced into the original song.
    Listen carefully. Slightly different tempo, but imagine a) being able to just come up with it and b) the song without that bit in it!
    It’s brilliant!

    The original line-up of Madness was 7 members. They still play today but with 6 members instead of 7. "House of Fun" is a really enjoyable song & video of theirs from the early days, around the same time period/band line-up as "One Step Beyond" and "Our House." They also performed live on the excellent absurd-comedy Britcom series "The Young Ones," twice I believe.

    Madness we're known for their jerky dancing. They were a bunch of cool kids who still sing today. The lead singer is called Suggs.

    This is a really fun song that was HUGE when it was released. Likely their most well known song worldwide, but they have several that are good (you've already reacted to One Step Beyond.) they are legends in this type of music and in Europe (especially in the UK.) Thanx for sharing! ~Be Blessed

    this so reminds me of my childhood. There were 4 kids in our house and 6 next door always in and out during the summer or playing outside in the street on our bikes and PoGo sticks. There was fewer cars and our street was a dead end anyway. Wings of a Dove and It must be Love are my other favourites.

    This was my first introduction to Madness as a child, and I didn't know it at the time, but also British humour (yes, humor spelled with a 2nd U). Their videos had a lot of Monty Python-esque elements, but back then I just liked the wacky look of it all. Try "House of Fun" next, it's about a teen trying to buy condoms! lol

    Madness is one of the best bands of all time. So damn talented musicians and so damn underrated. And when it comes to music videos, they were groundbreaking and far ahead of their time (most music videos in the early '80s were still mostly just filming while playing playback, but Madness made it an art form).
    They have so many really great songs (with great music videos)
    "Night Boat to Cairo"
    "Baggy Trousers"
    "Shut Up"
    "It Must Be Love"
    "Driving in My Car"
    "Michael Caine"
    "Bed and Breakfast Man"
    "Embarrassment"
    "Grey Day"
    "One Step Beyond"
    "Grey Day"
    "Tomorrow's (Just Another Day)"
    "My Girl"
    "The Sun and the Rain"
    "(Waiting For) The Ghost Train"
    "The Prince"
    "Cardiac Arrest"
    "Wings of a Dove"
    "Uncle Sam"
