Been putting it off for a while, but I might as well...

Five is a fairly arbitrary number.  I would say that my top four are
clearly ahead of the rest, but there's a lot of day-to-day shifting around
within the top four.  The song in the fifth spot varies a good deal, since
it's a lot closer to numbers 6-7 than it is to #4.



1. Johnny the Horse.  Incredible energy.  Great song.  

2. Lovestruck.  The song that brought Madness back to us.  

3. Drip Fed Fred.  Lots of fun.  I'm not a big supporter of this as a
single--I'd prefer the singles to be Madness alone without guests--but I
love the song.

4. Saturday Night, Sunday Morning.  A really strong Madness tune.  I have a
sense that this recording just _barely_ misses capturing the full force of
this wonderful song for reasons I can't clearly define. 

5. Elysium.  In some ways a defining song for this album.


(The two songs most likely to take turns with "Elysium" in the five-slot
are "Going to the Top" and "The Wizard".)
