This is one of them

Can anyone join in?

This is my favourite Specials song.

everyone free to contribute, I loved Two tone/ska when it was out.

oh yes I like that
this lot were always good
gotta reboot

Can I join?

I have a 6 year old DS3 who is obsessed with James Bond and I recently introduced him to that track - he loves it!

Mirror in the Bathroom is great but Stand Down Margaret was their finest hour, I feel.

The Specials by the Specials was the best 2Tone album IMHO - Concrete Jungle, You're Wondering Now etc etc - all just great.
Still makes me bop around the place whenever I hear it.

How funny were madness?

oh I lurve this bet you bop to this

madness were brill(crap live though)

'One Step Beyond' was the first album I bought, BGD.

Hassled: We always have to play that album on long car trips.

pmsl
he mooned when I saw them
love stand up margaret

I blardy love this lot.

You've really cheered me up!

i liked this for starters

Oh the memories. I loved loved loved this song. Used to dance and dance to this with my cousins and sisters

Oh I loved Mirror in the Bathroom.

And Ghost Town.

And I like The Selector a lot too - On My Radio, anyone?

I also (and this is very uncool) had a lot of time for UB40's first album .

and this too

ghost town always reminds me of leatherhead

Wasn't it Stand Down Margaret, not Stand Up Margaret?

see my earlier link sixspot

Rudy! A message to you Rudy!

I thought Ghost Town was about all those places that had riots? Did they have riots in Leatherhead (where is Leatherhead)?

Slarty - you beat me to it!

I think The Selector also did a very harrowing song about rape, called The Boiler - although that was probably a bit later?

Ghost Town was about Coventry, where the band came from. I'd sort of prefer it to have been about Leatherhead, though

I used to sing it about Stoke.

chipmunk are go anyone?

the best

I know hassled. but at the time it came out everyone was saying that leatherhead had turned into a ghost town, due to the new shopping centre.
