I voted for Duran Duran for best UK band.

And my favorite Madness song is "It Must Be Love".

I didn't look at the poll properly and voted The Police and then kicked myself for not seeing Duran Duran there!

Oh well too late now.

Suggz (Not THE Suggz???? ), my favourite Madness songs would be:

House of fun
Uncle Sam
It must be love

The only Madness song I know is "our house" so I don't have an objective viewpoint on that part of the thread.

As for my favorite UK band of the 80's, it was definitely New Order. To this day, whenever I hear a New Order song, I want to drive to the nearest dance club.

Best Madness song: House of Fun, followed very closely by It Must Be Love

Best UK Group: Depeche Mode. (Hush up Trixter ) Sorry Stacy, but Duran Duran is too far in the lead!

Thank ya Roem! Nice of you to go to the trouble.

The Police are undoubtably a great group, but not up to the caliber of Duran Duran!

New Order's new single kicks some serious arse - has anyone else heard 'Here To Stay'?

As for the poll, couldn't vote as It's impossible to seperate Duran from Depeche.

Madness was 'Baggy Trousers'.
