He's not just singing about a house. He's singing about his childhood, his family, growing up and memories of how safe he felt with his parents. If you're going to react to another Madness song, check out "Night boat to Cairo".
Not real though ,he was in fact the only child of a single parent .his dad left when he was three )he moved round the country a lot which made him quite insular ( his words) as he didn’t stay at one school very long
@@foljs5858 From reading Madness: House of Fun, it comes over that most of the band came from single parent families, and the song is more about their idealised idea of what they imagined family life would have been like.
In the days when people didn't need to lock their front doors during the day, people friends and family could just wander in have a chat, kids would just join in and play with their friends in the various houses on the street. There was always things going on.
A band we're proud of here in England. I cracked up when Livy stopped the song and Kae was still singing the high note. Practising for the karaoke Kae? Lol.
Yeah..reminds me when someone asked for an old show they didnt remembered and then was like.."oh its "Shogun" now I remember" and I was like, "Thats not old, its from 1982 or something!" and ppl like..eh...thats kinda 40 years ago ya know...
Loved it when they played this on Buckingham Palace roof on the last jubilee. They also did a reopening concert on our pier and we could hear them nearly 3 miles away!! Didn't they also cause the richter scale to go off during one step beyond a few years back?? 🤔
I suspect this song is actually about England and "their house", Buckingham Palace. ( see 00:05:51 + ) It says, "our house it has a crowd", but it might be an intentionally misheard lyric, "it has a CROWN". "Our house, was our castle and our keep"
Great reaction to a classic '80s tune guys. By the way, you did already react to Madness... You did their other 80s big hit One Step Beyond! 🤘 Ps, that's the one where they're all goofy, sitting on the staircase singing before the funny dude starts talking to the camera. ONE STEP BEYOND!!!
The end part puts the idea - everyone has "our house" attitude with ups and downs and stuff, even if not a terraced house but something nice worth 10 times more... same situation -> our house
Our House by madness was released in 1982, it's a golden oldie... What you called a pool or hot tub looked more like a Roman bath, which were historically public baths, going back 2000 years to Roman days.
funfact i read in some old fan magazine, All the members of the band were unemployed when they recorded their first album lol with barely enough pocket change for a bus ride home I recall.
I always enjoy y'all's reactions. I was into different genres when this song came out and didn't fully appreciate the horn section at the time, but I think I missed out on some great music. I will have to check out more Madness.
You kids. This is part of the soundtrack to my youth. Yeah I'm old I know..😁 But this band are so unique. And I'm sure it's already been mentioned that they did a concert that registered on the Richter scale that measures earthquakes.. It's a actual fact as mad as it sounds.. Keep up the great job guys.
Kind of sad but that was my first concert back in 1981 I was 10 years old I also got the stray cats that same Christmas you should check them boys out they are bad to the bone the band is called the stray cats in the song is stray cat strut
the crowning glory of this song is the video with madness playing Our House on the roof of Buckingham Palace for her Majesty's Diamond (I think) Jubilee
Good Reaction Guys. AVERAGE price of a House in London including 1 Bedroom Flats is £600,000 ot $834,000........ That home would cost over 100 Million Dollars with only 1/4 of that land at the vback in London...lol

hi guys,you need to find a video of madness live,they are even better than in these videos.still performing now and packing out stadiums .saw them 2 years ago and they are awesome
Love you guys are checking out other music!!! I could suggest so many others. The Pogue's... . "The Sick Bed of Cúchulainn" Try it.... So way different from ANYTHING you have done. Do a version with the lyrics.
Since you’re on the 80’s how about some Paul Young. Great singer. One of my all time favorites and a real vocal power house live back in the 1980’s. Some songs I would suggest are “Every Time You Go Away”, “Wherever I Lay My Hat” and “Broken Man” to start with.

@@cherrymcgregor535 I didn't know that. It gives the lyrics a more bittersweet element.
@@cherrymcgregor535 Yes, but Suggs didn't write the song, Chas and Chrissy Boy did, which presumably did have parents and siblings
@@foljs5858 I know xxx

"Our mother's so house proud, nothing ever slows her down and a mess is not allowed". 👍
Sounds like the Queen, to me.
WRONG! They say:
"Our Mum she's so house proud."
Come on, they're from Camden town London England, they speak like that.
@@RastaSaiyaman You can't be talking to me.
@@TacShooter I wasn't talking to you, I was talking to Jimi Ray.
@@RastaSaiyaman I stand corrected!
The house at 5:45 was actually at the top of my Grandma’s road in London. I walked past it many times 😀 I always thought it looked like a castle.

Late 70's and 80's, you romantic fool.
Except he moved round the country with his mother a lot ,so didn’t get chance to make many friends
Welcome to one of the 80s biggest earworms. 😁😎😂😂
Now you have to hear "ONE STEP BEYOND"!!!
More madness....wings of a dove....the sun and the rain,,,,night boat to Cairo...the list is endless.
Madness is a great English band. Always a thrill to see these guys live. Check out 'It Must be Love' ' Baggy Trousers' and 'Shut Up'
Another one of those stuck in your head all day songs. Well done guys
Lol this music hits different
A band we're proud of here in England. I cracked up when Livy stopped the song and Kae was still singing the high note. Practising for the karaoke Kae? Lol.
"It was way back then."
"Way back then" I was your age. 😁

@@mattiaswibom4788 next thing you know, I'll be calling kids "whippersnappers" and yelling at them to stay off my lawn.👴

good reaction guys..xoxo
Great to see you enjoying real music 🎶 🙌 . Your house is waiting for you.
I suspect this song is actually about England and "their house", Buckingham Palace. ( see 00:05:51 + ) It says, "our house it has a crowd", but it might be an intentionally misheard lyric, "it has a CROWN". "Our house, was our castle and our keep"
What? Out house it has a crowd.. it's allus full of folk FFS 🤣🤣 buck pal and crown - pass the LSD lad
No. Completely wrong.
@@botticellirejectbotticelli2668 Yeah, totally coincidental that they showed Buckingham Palace at that particular moment. Sure, pal.
@@harrygreb8427 No dumbass can be told about the Matrix. They have to see it for themselves.
If you search this on YT it will come up with Madness playing this on top of Buckingham Palce for the Queens jubilee celebrations 🍾
This Band is a real British Treasure WE LOVE EM 😊👍 another great review.
Check out another Madness hit - 'Michael Caine'. Yep, that's what it's called.
Its never to late to pick up an instrument and start playing. Your young my friend live your dreams. Keep reacting your doing great.
one of the best songs, from one of the best bands of my childhood. An 80's classic, and one of the most British bands in existence!
#nuttyboy4life
Madness performed in the closing ceremonies for the 2012 London Olympic Games. They performed Our House. It was great!
Great reaction to a classic '80s tune guys. By the way, you did already react to Madness... You did their other 80s big hit One Step Beyond! 🤘
Ps, that's the one where they're all goofy, sitting on the staircase singing before the funny dude starts talking to the camera. ONE STEP BEYOND!!!
Love when y’all do stuff from my youth! 🙂
Thank God she is there to explain stuff to him! 😂
so glad you can appreciate music from my generation 80s thanks for reacting to this video
You youngsters make me happy,great to see you broaden your horizons.GOD BLESS.

What you called a pool or hot tub looked more like a Roman bath, which were historically public baths, going back 2000 years to Roman days.
This is such a Classico both video and song. Got to love their nuttiness and humour.
one of my fave 80s songs ♥
Trombone is the most fun instrument to play. If you have good ear training, it never goes out of tune.
She's the one, their going to miss in lots of ways,❤️❤️🇮🇸💖🗽
This song was a huge hit back in the day. Memories...
When you're feeling it, you're feeling it❣❗
💯 one of the sounds of the 80s
funfact i read in some old fan magazine, All the members of the band were unemployed when they recorded their first album lol with barely enough pocket change for a bus ride home I recall.
Madness is fantastic! Check out The Sun and the Rain, and On the Wings of a Dove. All their music is so fun!
One of my favorite videos and 80's pop songs.
THIS BAND IS JUST FUCKING AMAZING!! Now GET THIS OUT MY HEAD LOL
I always enjoy y'all's reactions. I was into different genres when this song came out and didn't fully appreciate the horn section at the time, but I think I missed out on some great music. I will have to check out more Madness.
I hope, 6 months on, you’ve been able to enjoy more Madness. If not, you’re in for a big treat! Enjoy! 😃
Another great (house) song by them is "House Of Fun". Crazy video with it as well.
You kids. This is part of the soundtrack to my youth.
Yeah I'm old I know..😁
But this band are so unique.
And I'm sure it's already been mentioned that they did a concert that registered on the Richter scale that measures earthquakes..
It's a actual fact as mad as it sounds..
Keep up the great job guys.
your right !!! theyre all playing instruments and on top of that you get 6 or 7 people together on this band you you have great music
Kind of sad but that was my first concert back in 1981 I was 10 years old I also got the stray cats that same Christmas you should check them boys out they are bad to the bone the band is called the stray cats in the song is stray cat strut
Stray cats stray cat strut they got a 50 sound with a Lotta jazz three man band one guy play the cello definitely worth a listen
Yep, Stray cat strut is a classic.
the crowning glory of this song is the video with madness playing Our House on the roof of Buckingham Palace for her Majesty's Diamond (I think) Jubilee
Our house was madness and you never miss it 'till its gone!
Been watching you guys reactions for a few weeks now. You guys have great, fun attitudes. Keeps it up!!!!
Love how these kids are enjoying old school ska; Madness, The Special, etc. niceeeee
Awesome!!! Thank you ❤️👏🏻👏🏻
Good Reaction Guys.

Our house, was our castle and our keep.
you guys should listen to baggie trousers next, house of fun, night boat to Cairo.
Brilliant!
They sang a live performance of this at Buckingham palace in 2012 for the Queen's Jubilee.
madness was the band with the most weeks on the UK chart in the 80s
“My girl” is my favourite song of theres👍
Glad you are digging madness son.
Madness had lots of hits in the UK, but this was their only hit in the US.
This was a number 1 hit for them! Kim Wilde--Keep Me Hanging On is another good one.
😍😍😍take me back to the 80s
Gwen Stefani's favourite group, one of the band are wearing a Madness t-shirt in the No Doubt, Dont speak video.
hi guys..... sorry... i dont understand... where their house is?? :-)
Great band. My girl is another great record bu them.
Classic throwback! ❤️💖👍✌️
One of my favorite songs from the era
Welcome to the 80s to many great songs to count

I love you two so much. It upets me you two keep stopping this great song to make comments. It is utter madness.
i was 12 in 1983 this was massive
I finally realized who the Dean sister reminds me of! Zack de la Rocha.
Wake up can't be yawning watching this @ 2.23
Funnily enough, this music is being used in a UK ad here at the moment and Suggs, the lead singer, is in the ad..
Great review. You must watch their videos “One Step Beyond” and “Night Boat to Cairo”.
Madness songs you really need to do on your channel.
Grey Day, House of Fun, Baggy Trousers, Love struck, Return of the los Palomos Seven, Shut up, Driving in my car, Embarrassment, Night boat to Cario, and Uncle Sam

You two are sweet
Terence Trent Darby
Holding on to you
For the love of godddddd ❤️
Hows your quarantine going
BIG COUNTRY "IN A BIG COUNTRY"
Since you’re on the 80’s how about some Paul Young. Great singer. One of my all time favorites and a real vocal power house live back in the 1980’s. Some songs I would suggest are “Every Time You Go Away”, “Wherever I Lay My Hat” and “Broken Man” to start with.
Always wanted to learn how to play the trumpet ? Cmon your so young ! its up to you
They have so many good songs, check out their song "one step beyond"
Good luck with the house hunting
livy stop burning my shirt lol
You are so cute I wish you the best
Haven't heard this one since the 80s. lol
