Well I finally laid my grubby mitts on said album this morning on the way to college (yes, I was late as a result :)) Of course I've listened to it pretty much non-stop ever since (it's 4:30am and I've still got it on very, very quietly... :)) > I've gotta go with: > > 1) Drip Fed Fred -- Ian Dury & Madness finally > together and it doesn't get better I must concur, in fact I'd say that DFF has got to be amongst my favourite 3 Madness songs now. If there is a God, then his name must indeed be Ian Dury ;) As for the rest of my top 5: 2/. The Wizard. I'm not entirely sure why, but I love it to bits. It's got lots of the essential Madnessness of In The City, Bed & Breakfast Man, Uncle Sam and others I'm too tired to remember off the top of my head :P 3/. I'm going to cheat here, and say that Johnny the Horse and The Communicator tie for third place. JTH is just a great tune. The Communicator appeals greatly to my ska punkishness. 4/. Elysium. Loved it the first time I heard it, and I haven't changed my opinion after buying the album. 5./ I'm afraid Lovestruck comes in fifth. It's a great song, it's just that the others are even greater :P Cheers, A. - ______________________________________________________________ Visit the Total Madness Mailing List website for: latest news, madmeet info, list charter, games, and more ... http://members.xoom.com/totalmadmail/ Contact the TMML Moderators at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] and in the message body put: unsubscribe total-madness
