What song makes you think of your childhood home?

My first real full on obsession was Madness. I created a school fan club and wrote a fanzine. I was 12 or 13 and used to borrow my dad’s typewriter, trying out lyrics and reviews!

When I hear early Madness now I am transported straight back there, sitting cross legged on my bedroom floor typing out my masterpieces 😄

I wish I still had some copies of that fanzine….
