Madness - Night Boat To Cairo (Official Audio)

Madness - Night Boat To Cairo (One Step Beyond Track 3)

I have a ska tattoo and anytime anybody asks what it means I play this song to their amazement, I feel sorry for the masses who don't know about madness.

This album is unreal. When first plays your like “ Yes this is my favourite.” Then it finishes and the next song begins and your like “ No wait this is my favourite song.” This continues for the whole album 😂😂😂

Although always been a mod at heart the ska stuff was always part of the record collection .. it all added to a great mix for the greatest time in music ..I.e the late 70s early 80s .. what a time to be a teenager .. thought it would last forever.. n here I am at 56 .. p.s it has lol

[izzypowell]

Absolute tune. The band played this at the New Years' Eve party I went to. I was on the dancefloor like a shot.

It’s just gone noon half past monsoon
On the backs of the river Nile
Here comes the boat only half-afloat
Oarsman grins a toothless smile 😀

Only just one more to this desolate shore
Last boat along the river Nile
Doesn’t seem to care, no more wind in his hair
As he reaches his last half mile
The oar snaps in his hand before he reaches dry land
But the sound doesn’t deafen his smile 😀
Just pokes at wet sand with an oar in his hand 🖐
Floats off down the river Nile
Floats off down the river Nile

All aboard, night boat to Cairo
Night boat to Cairo

I was a RUDE BOY I the 80s fantastic song loved madness even though the specials were my favourite people talk about racism but back in thei 80s I never had any trouble at tall fro. Skin heads I was black in Essex in the 80s I never got any grief and actually had loads of nice comments from skinheads and they would protect me rather than give me a good hiding😂 I loved the 89s and ska music and am waiting to go to a specials concert RIP
