This song from Madness is about walking and standing in the rain so, of course, the music video features the members of the band wrecking havoc in Suggs’s ear and Lee Thompson with a rocket strapped onto his back.  The video also features several fans of the band hanging out withe Madness and a clever parody of Bob Dylan’s music video for Subterranean Homesick Blues.

The store at the start of the video was “Holts,” a shoe shop in Camden Town.  The name of the store has since been changed to British Boot Company.

Who directed this video?  I can not find a credited director but Dave Robinson seems like a good suspect since he directed the majority of Madness’s early videos and this video does have the same light-hearted style that he brought to his other videos for the band.  But Madness also worked with other directors during this period, including Nigel Dick and Chris Gabrin so who knows for sure?

Enjoy!
