- Here's a video of Madness performing 'Never Knew Your Name', live in Trafalgar Square at the end of 2011. It was recorded as part of an observational quiz round for the BBC TV show 'Britain's Brightest' that I directed several VT inserts for (including this one). This is a re-edited extended (full) version of the clip that appeared on the show,
Losing Terry makes me appreciate who we have left from that special time in the late 70s, and early 80s. This is also a great song. Love from Boston USA
Yeh losing Terry....hurts, really hurts
Greetings from England 🏴and you are so spot on.
I was lucky enough to see this performance live 😊
That must have been brilliant! Wow I would've loved to seen it.💯
A national treasure, Madness are one of the finest bands we've ever had!
LOVE them
Grow up!
@@vinegarjoe6794 bitter OR better, the choice is up to you. The thief of JOY is comparing ourselves to others, unfortunately .. the Peace that resides Within my Soul was a difficult, detrimental fight i Will NOT allow the enemy to
make me miserable EVER again. He has tried to usurp My Birthright my Whole Life, i won't give quarter any Longer ..🥀🍀🌹💜💜💜🌹🍀🥀

60 over here. Fan since 1979. Still love the spirit of this band. Britains best export product. Love from Holland.
Still one of the best bands to ever come out of Engerlad
Out of Engerlad????
Yep when music was happy and fun unlike the shite of today
@@maryanpaunov3980 😂 ..young at 💙 they are😘❤😘

🤣🤣🤣
I was in high school when Madness made their appearance. Loved it then and still loving it 35 years later. One of the top 10 bands from the UK.
Same here mate
Me too!! Happy Greeting to all from Sunny San Diego, California USA..HS Class of 1982..🖐🏼😆💖✨🍀🌞🌻🔱🏄♀️🏖️🐚👙✌🏼☮️
I was 14 when I first listened to these guys..Madness..Totally brilliant!
I’m 14 now and been listening since I was about 6
FANTASTIC BAND 💛🌷🌻💜💚 Great tune! So underrated.
My highschool heroes.... hang on... I'm nearly 53... they are still my heroes.... Madness7
This is too damn cool!!!! I love me some MADNESS. Thank you UK for ska. Much love from The Lone Star State USA.
We love you Texas
same from Alexandria, Va
Ska comes from Jamaica in the 60s. Bands like Madness are part of the second wave of Ska in the UK in the late 70s and early 80s.
Absolutely breathtaking.
I was fortunate enough to see Madness in 83 and in 86. Madness represents all that is great about British music. Between the Jam, Madness, the Smiths, and practically every album I own, British music has been the center of my life. Cheers from Boston, MA
This is a great and very underrated tune. Real people singing about real people. Ian Dury was also classic in doing this. This song and video, as an Englishman living in Finland, really makes me miss my home country. Especially as Covid has prevented me from getting back there to see friends and family. However much it upsets me, at least it makes me feel 🇬🇧🇫🇮
I absolutely love Madness, House of Fun, was when I first got to know them. So sad they did not continue. What a voice, what a band.
Boer greetings, from sunny South Africa.
I've loved these since I was 8/9 because my big brother loved them too, that was 44ys {😲omg} ago... And I never met a partner who even liked them until I met my amazing hubby who has taken me to see them live TWICE now...an amazing live act and genuinely nice group of guys... Long live Madness 🕶️
Just happened to be in Leicester Square on 31.3.21...and who should be there but Suggs promoting the new documentary on Madness, “Before We Was We”. Suggs is a charming man. Always loved Madness.
If only I could relive my past 😞I grew up with these guys and to hear this sets me back 🥲
Grew up listing to Madness amongst others British bands. They’re just so amazing.
I've just become a MADNESS fan all over again. had no idea these guys still sound so good- always great fun.
so catchy !!!! madness write the finest lyrics n music since the early 80's ,every single one of them is an exceptional musician and suggs lyrics is like a poet ...x
i was at East Yorkshire during this performance...if i have known Madness performed there i would have gone to London to watch them...i love Madness..
Brilliant. Suggs is a great singer. Madness epitomize London. 👊
Who said aging is awful , these guys are getting bettre with age ,god bless you gentellmen .
Really or are they ticking boxes as per since there heyday to keep relevant?
This is how you age gracefully. I just watch this and smile.
Suggs has aged rather well.... Like a fine wine
Idiot
I grew up with Madness. They made feel young. They still do. Xx
Fabulous performance in the square- wish I could have been there - cheers from Adelaide South Australia 🇦🇺
I remember early 80-s, I lived in The USSR , , I was crazy for them, so many years passed and I still love them.
Great song, reminds me of my younger days and that people you sometimes meet at bars & disco nights and you never see them again creating great and crazy memories.
Мы живём в разных странах, говорим на разных языках... Но, нам нравятся эти песни.
my favorite band growing up in the 80s
I like this so much, i ve probably watched it 50 times
This track is simply EPIC.
Un posto speciale nei miei vinili : ) quante ore passate ad ascoltarli Grande Band
those were the days ... DAMMMMM this song awake many memories !!! thank you so much.....
This is actually a great song ... thank you Madness
Started with 8 years to listen to them,now I m 44 and still I m one step beyond!
Rediscovering this song. It is amazing. Such a great band. Britain's best :-)
My God what a great song they are lkke a fine wine they just get better with age
Hahaha.....you are so right!!!
Absolutely fantastic group.
I'm french and vive MADNESS
Still wonderful these songs, quality never dies
Just simple words but making genius lyrics. Together with the melody you easily get into the mood. Bravo Madness!
Your my people i grew up with, your a band that always puts a smile on me face everyday i hear your tunes. Always remembered Madness. Take it or leave it hey?
Einfach wundervoll. Was für eine herrliche Idee ein Video am Trafalgar Square zu drehen! Magnificent! Thanks boys!
love this song so much! can listen to it for hours!
Something very strange happens with you British, I feel rejection towards your politicians, a lot of rejection ... but I love your music, for my pleasure, the best bands are the British, Madness is a band that I heard for the first time more than 30 years ago and it captivated me ... and not to mention all the other bands recognized worldwide, Duran Duran, Iron Maiden, Beatles, Rolling Stones, UB-40, Dire Straits, The Shadows, Supertramp, Yes, Pink Floyd, Genesis, Tears for Fears, The Police, The Cure and all the ones that I do not remember right now ... I just love the British music
Johnn Winston Lemon great comment. I must admit we are very lucky when it comes to music
Unfortunately, our "selections" for elections are no better and sometimes worse than other nations... but we remain positively gifted at heckling and protesting the political classes who's contributions to inspiring our musicians and songwriters cannot be completely ignored. Would the Brit Punk world have been so powerful and potent were it not for all the songs of protest inspired by Maggie Thatcher the milk snatcher? The clash, Joe strummer, strummer fest etc were HUUUGE culturally, socially and politically and when the iron lady finally popped off this mortal coil, there were still public service announcements urging the public not to hurl bottles of milk at her procession. Nobody showed up for her bollocks state funeral... everybody partied at the pub singing the strummer fest classic "We will laugh the day that Thatcher dies... Even though we know it's not right... We will dance and sing all night..." The British Broadcasting Corporation were also compelled to ban "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead" so that they could circumvent playing that #1 hit anywhere... #Britainsrevenge #rustinpiecesironlady

Listened to madness since the 70s and always with a automatic smile. Fantastic band and purveyor of good feelings.

It's like they have found the enjoyment of just playing together again.

Pretty much been with Madness for 30 years! ;-)
story of my life that,loved them since i was a kid
What a great band what a great song what a great vidéo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love this! Thank you for sharing this with us. 🙂
The duality of the Line "Will I ever see you again, I wonder" stands out to based on the age of the bandmembers,
many of those who made up the audience might not get a second chance to see them live and in person, be it because of their age or lack thereof.
I HAVE LOVED THEM SINCE THE START,AND I STILL DO
Me too
Just love madness,such. Cheery music,great band🇬🇧🍻🍺
Words si simples, so daily style, the charme of the song, with a great music

Seen them 3 times now, all three in my home time of Doncaster.
Huge respect, put together flawlessly, and a totally organic feel. Very impressed :)

Amis Britishs, vous pouvez être fiers d 'avoir produit ce genre de "pépites". Quel bonheur ces Madness.....
Being a big Madness fan I feel this is one of there greatest!
Met them in the Lord Nelson pub in Morning Lane years ago, Great fellas.
Cheers from Argentina, britts!!! ...and thanks for all the music !
(Politics apart, of course...those are our governments, not us)
Excelente Hermano!!! Comparto plenamente tu comentario!!
These guys continue making great music!
Love love love this band!!!😁👍
I'm proud to be Camden born and bred specifically because of Madness
Semplicemente capolavoro …Prima, ora, e sempre 💎 ❤💎
Stile mica si compra ❤
@@JimmyMascali
Concordo!!
Pensa che nel 2014 in Italia i Tiromancino hanno proposto il brano in versione italiana con il titolo ‘Mai saputo il suo nome’ , pare apprezzata anche da loro.
E’ certamente un lavoro eccellente, non posso negarlo, ma per me i Madness restano unici e irraggiungibili.🩷
British Madness, simply beautiful!
Madness is the world,desde Argentina.
When i knew Madness for first time in the early 90s in the local radio stations of my country Chile, i knew they would be my favourite ska band. I can say that since that time until now they are and will be the best ska band of UK and of the world. The only dream that I always wanted was have been in one concert of them.
So good to see you still got a band keep on smiling lades the good work and keep on smiling
Average age of these guys is 60 and they produced and performed this.
But this is Madness.
Reminds me that ‘Madness ‘is England.
And today England is madness.
Uncle Joe I was very privileged to see them 3 weeks ago in my home town Margate. Went on my own but I had to. My first record I bought was baggy trousers hooked since then. Make me smile all the time 💕
lesley james Yes, Baggy Trousers was their first big hit that had me bopping. I was only a kid at the time, but it certainly had an impact on me and lots of youngn’s.
Brings back lots of fantastic memory's frm the late 7ties and early 80ties fell in love during two tone rise and had 2 lovely children a good job had it all at 19 music was magic vinyl then CDs loe itxx👍😁
Madness. I will always love them
Madness - the Voice of London. Camden town Boys.
Beautiful... absolutely. Love this.
I adore Madness. Such class and style.
I had no idea that they were still writing incredible songs. wonderful.
made me remember of one night at the seascouts when I met this blonde young girl.... and she twisted my mind for many years but never met her again...Sad
J'adore cette mélodie, ce groupe, toujours présent, avec des mélodies intemporelles
Great band in the words greatest city!!
I'm from holland and Madness is a big part of my life, just like alot of british music and comedy series, because the Brits have the same sense of dry humor as we dutch do!!
