For anybody living in Australia that enjoys the Chemist Warehouse advert for its catchy tune, I only recently discovered it is a sample from a song by English band Madness. I'm sure some of our older members already knew, but for younger members who didn't, check out some of their music, it's not bad.

Offiical Music Video: Our House - Madness (Skip to 0:30 for song to start)

Chemist Warehouse Advert

Enjoy.

I know the song well... not that I was even born when it was released, I just used to love that show 'The Young Ones' when I was a kid.

They would regularly have a band randomly play in the middle of the show...

Madness are a really cool band. When they realised much of their fan base were kids, they started doing matinee concerts so concert goers could get home at a reasonable hour and be up in time for school the next day!

Hi DG....love that song. Another band that's a "one hit wonder".

They kinda remind me of Boomtown Rats ("I don't like Mondays")
