I remember watching it that night. The Specials and The Selecter were also on. It was the talk of the playground the following day - Two Tone had arrived!
It was "The Prince" on TOTP first. This song "The Prince" changed a nation of lost boy's and girls from the skinhead movement, into SKA . It raised the "Rude Boy's" out of the ghetto's and gave them a purpose to live for. It's a 70's London thing, that then, went national.
I remember watching it, their first hit, it was one of those rare occasions when you know something special is happening, something new and fresh. Very talented.
I saw them a few years ago in Stuttgart, south Germany, and Graham McPherson said to the audience after the first applause „It‘s so good to be back in México!“
The music lives on though 😊 I discovered Madness and Ska in my sisters record collection. Ska lives on ❤ Check out your venues, might be some new bands waiting for an audience 😊😊
Saw them first on "Tiswas", Saturday morning kids show in the UK at . "One Step Beyond"......I have never left them. 13/14 years old.............OH YES.
After watching Madness performing OSB on TOTP every one of my mates wanted to be Chas Smash at school the next day "Ska had come to town" What a great memory thanks uploader 😊👍
I'm 58 on Tuesday and still skank my box off when a rocking tune like madness plays . I seen them in early 80s with the modettes supporting in Liverpool in my two tone suit and black jam shoes
I'm a black guy heavy in roots reggae and lovers rock ,I listen and watch the dance to madness one step beyond ,so clever so british and it makes me smile every time
@@tonyivey5399 you’ve lived Tony there was a vibe back then fairground music mixed with ska and imagination and those 7 guys gave prince buster a lot of respect as Suggs once said to me there wouldn’t be no madness if it weren’t for him and all those classic blue beat tunes and more I’m glad I lived it ✊✊✊✊✊
This is excellent, although suggs gets the credit for being the main singer, the band is not the same without Chas smash, especially in their early days. Chas is the main nutty dancer. Those earlier gigs and concerts wouldn't be the same without his nutty dancing (and chanting) they were brilliant in late 1979 and also in 1980. Truly, one of the best bands ever. (Along with the Specials)
They (public, crowd) took some time to wake up to Madness back then, they didn’t realise what the lads were all about. It was ‘The Prince’ in 79’ that woke up this little 9 yr old, I was obsessed ever since 👌🏻🇬🇧 ‘One step beyond’ when it first came on Top of the Pops done my old Dads head in, he made me turn it down, or the Tv was getting switched off 😂
hello Rude Boys Tim and Dave, remember me? No? Well I remember you, I never forget. I came back that night in 1979 with Boom Boom, but you'd gone, old Boom Boom was keen to meet you....maybe we'll meet again and I'll introduce you. Ta Ta, for now.
Remember this if you think that music today is crap. Real rebels that had no problem taking money to go on TOTPs and still complain about it. Suggs own words " of course we wanted money, who would not"

One of the greatest tunes of a decade and the audience can't be bothered.
From a much earlier decade than this show, though. (It's a cover)
Spoilt for choice in them days
The completely uninterested reaction of the audience is priceless.
They don't get this then new music phononem. I was 11yrs old, I absolutely loved them. Great fun music.😀😀😀😀
@@carolecochrane8173 Wow! Thanks for sharing that. I was born in 1968. It was a different time.
compare to th-cam.com/video/rt6Qhhytml8/w-d-xo.html
My thoughts exactly where did they get them from
Ahead of their time
❤ madness takes me back to my teens brilliant amazing group love em still looking fit suggs

2nd hit? The Prince was definitely first.
@@stewartheywood7239 Yes, he probably doesn't realise that Prince Buster did One step beyond in the 60's first either. It is hardley new and fresh.
it was a great time. fresh on the heels of punk. so much change and optimism.
I saw them a few years ago in Stuttgart, south Germany, and Graham McPherson said to the audience after the first applause „It‘s so good to be back in México!“
For me 79 was the year for good music. 79 till 83 the best.
Totally agree.
Best comment on here.
I,ve always said that. 79-83
Suddenly I feel quite old. Remember watching this performance as a 9 year old kid. Great memories
The music lives on though 😊 I discovered Madness and Ska in my sisters record collection. Ska lives on ❤ Check out your venues, might be some new bands waiting for an audience 😊😊
The only band I ever saw who didn't need drugs
Их и так не хило прёт 👍😜
Only lots of echo
Haaaaaaaaaaa!
You or them?
@@alexthomson7465 them I don't do drugs 😂
Great then and great now.
I wish I was a teen in England to witness madness and the Ska and punk bands.... brilliant tune !
Saw them first on "Tiswas", Saturday morning kids show in the UK at . "One Step Beyond"......I have never left them. 13/14 years old.............OH YES.
13 years ols in 1979 heard Madness for the first time still only band for me 👍
🤪🤪🤪
that nutty dance is just out there - love it
They are truly mad. ♥️
La audiencia aún no estaba preparada para esta música "del futuro"...
I've never seen this version, absolutely brilliant and the TOTP producers must have hated it! 😂😂😂
Haha yeah, I feel like this might have been the first time TOTP banned them.
Saw them again in about 2018 and still the best! Thought el thommo was going to have a heart attack but he kept going! Amazing!
After watching Madness performing OSB on TOTP every one of my mates wanted to be Chas Smash at school the next day "Ska had come to town"
What a great memory thanks uploader 😊👍
This was a starter for awesomeness,
Top band ever.
Love madness,
Brilliant.. I was 18 in 1979
Happy days 🎶🎵👍😁
old git, i was 12 😁
The best song ever✨⭐🌞🌈☀️🌅🌟❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🌎
1 month shy of 40 years old...where did that time go and can I have it all back!
Tell me about it, me 1971. 40 flew.
Love this song
This is madness!
Love madness.xx
Just sublime..
I turned 58 last week....and I STILL can't listen to this music without the urge to SKANK my arse off!🕺😎
Me too man ! I am 59 now..
Gwan Lance my son, let's ave it! No age too great to enjoy this masterpiece to the full!
I'm 58 on Tuesday and still skank my box off when a rocking tune like madness plays . I seen them in early 80s with the modettes supporting in Liverpool in my two tone suit and black jam shoes
SKA MUSIC IS THE BEST! Everyone dancing to their own rhythm !!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Bloody Brilliant.
Canterbury 79. Fucking awesome...I was a kid.x
3xelente música me encanta......👏👏👏👍
Syncopation, instrumentation, not overdone, best uplifting momentum.
Best documentary Camden story crew amazing
Brilliant
hillarious that they walk off around the set, not caring that it obvious its not live
I used to dance like that even before madness ,,then went onto hip hop ,,now I'm on a list for a hip op 🥴
Thanks for posting 😊
Моя молодость Madness....
И моя))) До сих пор обожаю. Привет из СПб!
En ese año me case y estaba de estreno está genial banda
Los Fabulosos Cadillacs 💪🏼😁
Hi, Richie, England style find, found,. Thank's ...!
First record I ever brought love it❤ even named my son after one of the members who is no longer in the group ❤
One step beyond!!
Still love them
La mejor rola para abrir mi reventón que comience la fiesta
Andamos como chapulines
I love madnesss
A friend went to sing this at karaoke night but forgot the words. 😎
What?? 😂
Remember this going out!
So damn great
J adore ❤❤❤
This madness is better than the later madness.
Brilliantly 'raw'. One of the best bands live!. Nuff said.
listen to it on the bus not sure what other people think but playing it anyway ❤❤
Remember in back the the future 2 when Michael J Fox was on stage and started to play a riff.......this gives me that same feeling.
ONE... STEP... BEYOND!!!!!
These are from another planet
Un paso adelante Venezuela.
Cuando me ponía alegre en 1981 con unas gracielas chulada todo pa delante nada hacia tras
I like the way the saxophone played on after it was removed from the mouth. 😉
a muy buena rola aya por los 80s
Once again The Audience is in a Coma...Madness too cool for TOTP
It was a bit of a comedy act though wasn't it? If they'd have looked more serious the audience might have taken them seriously.
The audience were not aware that they were in the presence of greatness 🤦♀
Good.
The best 2tone Ska song ever created
Great fun.
Couldn’t possibly have been miming in this clip😂😂
Going to see them this autumn should be a great night
One step high!
Quality 👍
2023 and still hear this 😅👍🏻
COOL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Legends 🇦🇺
The audience are on sedatives!
Especially for such a rocking tune!
I'm a black guy heavy in roots reggae and lovers rock ,I listen and watch the dance to madness one step beyond ,so clever so british and it makes me smile every time

💯
The audience must’ve gotten a strong dose of lithium
J’ai dansé la dessus 😂😂😂😂🎉❤
➕🎤😎
That Chas Smash has got some serious moves..
hello Rude Boys Tim and Dave, remember me? No? Well I remember you, I never forget. I came back that night in 1979 with Boom Boom, but you'd gone, old Boom Boom was keen to meet you....maybe we'll meet again and I'll introduce you. Ta Ta, for now.
Jesus - forty-four years ago. FORTY FOUR!!!!
45 now, mate.
Crushing out on this group since 1979
Good old TOTP where everything is mimed and nothing is plugged in!!!
after my punk period i heard this and became ska
I was seven when this happened... mind you though I was 21 when the Prodigy happened...love dove's anyone...
Gotta love SAX 👀🍿
Ska was fun !
Chas Smash!
They left Woody alone in the scenario...
Who said white men can't Chaz was 1 of the best I ever seen
They where taking the piss because top of the pops insisted on them using a prerecorded track, one of the many things you learn from watching NMTBC
The only track missing from The Blues Brothers.
RIP Prince Buster
Top ska
El público super animado
A dark time for actual music.
Remember this if you think that music today is crap. Real rebels that had no problem taking money to go on TOTPs and still complain about it. Suggs own words " of course we wanted money, who would not"
Naturally fun
An easy day out for Suggs !
Yep, rare for a singer not to sing on TOTP!
El público terribles zombis
