>Belated birthday greetings to Mr. Smash. There can't be many members of
>internationally famous bands who will take time out on their birthdays to
>post a message to a fans forum. Even less that will state that they will
>try
>to play at a fans shindig for no fee! I'm just gutted that I'll be flying
>off to Florida for two weeks on the 30th June, and will have to miss the
>whole thing. Even if Chas and Crunch can't make it along, I'm sure it will
>be a weekend to remember. It just goes to show that the seven men that we
>know as Madness, are seven of the best blokes in the whole world. They
>treat
>us with respect, so we should treat them likewise by not entertaining
>thoughts of lining bootleggers pockets.
>
>And with that, on with the chart...

>59= (14) {4} <0> Rockin' In Ab [42=] [55=]
>
>One of three songs sharing 59th place is this track from One Step Beyond.
>For 'Ab', please read 'A flat' as I don't know how to get the symbol on my
>keyboard! Written by W. Wurlitzer, I still haven't worked out exactly who
>it
>was.
>
>59= (14) {4} <0> Driving In My Car [35=] [DNC]
>
>This song failed to make our first chart, even though the spoof version
>Riding On My Bike did! Written by Mike Barson, this was the follow up
>single
>to Madness' only UK No. 1. It reached No. 4 in the charts in 1983, and
>featured the Fun Boy Three in the video!
>
>59= (14) {4} <0> Sign Of The Times [85=] [48]
>
>A climb of 26 places still finds this song 11 places below its first
>appearance. Written by Suggs and Mike, it first appeared on Seven.
>
>57= (15) {4} <0> Mad Not Mad [73] [DNC]
>
>Would you dance with the madman? Some people would! The title track from
>Madness' sixth studio album was written by Suggs and Chas. A respectable
>climb of 16 places for this song.
>
>57= (15) {4} <0> Razor Blade Alley [89=] [39=]
>
>Written and sung by Lee, I'm still surprised by this song's low chart
>placing, despite it's climb of 32 places. Taken from One Step Beyond, this
>is a true classic Madness album track. Deep and meaningful lyrics. Give it
>a
>listen and vote for it next time!
>
>56 (16) {2} <0> Jennie (A Portrait Of) [53] [DNC]
>
>A fall of just three places still sees this b-side of Sweetest Girl beat
>it's a-side for the second chart running. This one was written by Lee and
>Woody.
>
>55 (16) {3} <0> Song In Red [DNC] [55=]
>
>A welcome return to our chart (at its original position) for this track
>from
>The Madness. Written and sung by Chas, it featured only three original
>Madness members on the recording (Lee, Chris and Chas) along with Seamus
>Beaghan and Steve Nieve amongst others.
>
>54 (18) {4} <0> Mrs Hutchinson [23] [23=]
>
>After occupying 23rd position in the last two charts, this track from Seven
>falls 31 places. Written by Mike Barson.
>
>53 (19) {5} <0> Rise And Fall [37] [DNC]
>
>The title track from Madness' third studio album falls 16 places on our
>chart. Written by Suggs and Chris. If you look closely at the cover of the
>album, you can see the Post Office (Telecom) Tower and the aviary at London
>Zoo!
>
>52 (19) {3} <1> Mr Speaker (Gets The Word) [93=] [DNC]
>
>A healthy climb of 41 places for this track from The Rise And Fall, thanks
>mainly to a No. 1 vote. Written by Suggs and Mike, I think it is the only
>Madness track which has lyrics in Latin, spoken by Chas. I could be wrong,
>correct me if I am.
>
>51 (20) {4} <0> Keep Moving [55=] [34=]
>
>Hurry up, don't slow down. The third title track from an album to appear on
>our chart, and the third in tonight's segment! This song was written by
>Suggs, Chas and Chris, who are obviously better writers than they are
>runners, as they are the last three in the race on the cover of the album!!
>
>
>Well, that's it for tonight. We're on the brink of the Top 50, we're only
>just over half way through the 106 songs on the chart so there's still a
>lot
>to look forward to.
>
>Until the next time...

>Goodnight.
