I'll go with "One Step Beyond".  "House Of Fun", "Our House", "Baggy Trousers" and "It Must Be Love" are good tunes too. :)

Our House, just because it's the only one I know (and I've always liked that song).

Our House is the only song I know. But I do like it so that's what I voted for.

I voted for My Girl.  I also like another which I think is called Orange Street.  It's one of the earlier ones

That's a shame. It's one of their worst songs.

I would have voted for "One Step Beyond" because it is a cool song, but it's heavily overplayed. So, I voted for "Baggy Trousers" which is not quite so overplayed and just as good a song. ;)

I chose a totally different song called 'Bed and Breakfast Man'. Great song. I like 'E.R.N.I.E' too.

As for conventional songs I will go for . . .

Uncle Sam
Michael Caine
Our House
House of Fun
Baggy Trousers

and a little known song called Victoria Gardens.  :D

Gotta agree with you there, Vile, I don't think "Our House" is one of their better songs. :P

"Our House" is the one I know best, partly because it was their biggest hit in the U.S. So that's the one I vote for.

I also know "One Step Beyond"...which has no sung words other than the title, which occurs every so often. I like listening to that one too, so it'll be a close second. O0

My personal vote: "House Of Fun".

I heard it by Madness, and by a cover group called "Rude Toons". Quite spastic and fun!
(I always wondered what Doctor Who thought of ska.....)

Another good band, ska-wise, is Bad Manners, headed up by the Bombastic Buster Bloodvessel.
Songs they perform: Romeo & Juliet, I Can't Stand the Rain (Remade), Return Of the Ugly, and The Billy.
Again, really spastic, entertaining and fun!

Seriously?  That's one of their worst in my opinion


I agree, that it's not one of their best, but I love it so much because not many people do ;D
