Madness - Our House (Official Audio)

Madness - Our House (The Rise And Fall Track 7)

[Waltuh_Claus]

I will never unhear "Our house, in the middle of our house, our house, in the middle of our house"

[Captureman]

Sun soaked summer of ‘83 I was 9 heading to my cousins in ground pool sitting on vinyl seats in my mom’s Datsun B210 while Our House by Madness played on her low tech car radio. Too great.

I was 16 years old when this song first came out. Now I am listening to it 40 years later and it is still a great song. Great memories

[gn]

One of the best intros i've ever heard.
Brings back many memories

[TheBeird]

Weird to get all nostalgic about a song which is all about nostalgia. But here I am yet again

[ashthefoofighter]

I'm embarrassed to say I was unaware of how the verses and the ending went as the chorus has become very "commercial" in the US. I can't stop playing this on repeat now because of the aforementioned.

Excellent classic that will never go out of style, thanks for sharing this great example

Father wears his Sunday best
Mother's tired, she needs a rest
The kids are playing up downstairs
Sister's sighing in her sleep (ah)
Brother's got a date to keep, he can't hang around
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our
Our house, it has a crowd
There's always something happening
And it's usually quite loud
Our mum she's so house-proud
Nothing ever slows her down and a mess is not allowed
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our (something tells you that you've got to move away from it)
Father gets up late for work
Mother has to iron his shirt
Then she sends the kids to school
Sees them off with a small kiss (ah)
She's the one they're going to miss in lots of ways
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our
I remember way back then when everything was true and when
We would have such a very good time, such a fine time
Such a happy time
And I remember how we'd play, simply waste the day away
Then we'd say nothing would come between us
Two dreamers
Father wears his Sunday best
Mother's tired, she needs a rest
The kids are playing up downstairs
Sister's sighing in her sleep
Brother's got a date to keep, he can't hang around
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our
Our house, was our castle and our keep
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, that was where we used to sleep
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street, our house

In 1982 I was 16 years old. I was listening LGT, Omega, Piramis, SBB, Pink Floyd, Genesis etc. I'm replacing it nowadays ... :-D

Geniale Madness-Hymne. Unglaublich, wie viel gute Musik die Briten in den 80ern produziert haben. Ein Kult-Hit folgt auf den anderen.

[johnswan]

One of the songs that define the 80's.

[DrMeta]

This song is what first got me into Madness in the late 90s. My friends & I loved it. When it played on our last day in Cancun for Spring Break in high school, it felt perfect for the last time in what would be a long while. We were having our last few rounds after smoking all the weed we couldn't take back thru customs before hitting the airport. It capped a crazy adventure while calling us all home. The plane almost crashed a few times on the way home.

I know what you're thinking. "What type of maniac wakes up at dawn to punch boulders?" I'll tell ya who. My good pal, Knuckles the Echidna.

Lyrics:
Father wears his Sunday best
Mother's tired, she needs a rest
The kids are playing up downstairs
Sister's sighing in her sleep
Brother's got a date to keep
He can't hang around

Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our

Our house it has a crowd
There's always something happening
And it's usually quite loud
Our mum, she's so house-proud
Nothing ever slows her down
And a mess is not allowed

Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our
Our house, in the middle of our street

Our house (Something tells you)
(That you've got to move away from it) In the middle of our

Father gets up late for work
Mother has to iron his shirt
Then she sends the kids to school
Sees them off with a small kiss (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
She's the one they're going to miss
In lots of ways

Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our

I remember way back then
When everything was true and when
We would have such a very good time
Such a fine time, such a happy time
And I remember how we'd play
Simply waste the day away
Then we'd say nothing would come between us
Two dreamers

Father wears his Sunday best
Mother's tired she needs a rest
The kids are playing up downstairs
Sister's sighing in her sleep
Brother's got a date to keep
He can't hang around

Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our
Our house, was our castle and our keep
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, that was where we used to sleep
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house

Was there a video of this? Or not? 🥴 I can't find anything

[matthewpeterkinaikuruyamot]

The most top number one music in history and

[kc]

For such a happy upbeat song.. it's always made me feel kinda sad for some reason

[SandraMendozaRivera-ve]

Hibbie A, reminds me of Bubble Print Picture Frame Song from Doodle Do

I’m sitting in math class, doing this super hard math problem, and suddenly the chorus to this song suddenly starts playing
