Do you like UB40?.

[Denver]

Personally i think they are one of the greatest bands to have ever existed and they are also local.

They have so many fantastic song.

Would genuinely rather shred my ears off with a cheese grater than listen to a UB40 album

Well you wouldn't

[Ashley.]

I've only ever heard of Red Red Wine (who hasn't) so I can't judge... not really my sort of music, though.

It's great for stopping those rusty hinges squeaking. :)

[thesheriff443]

Great band

[LaLaLand]

I like them but don't know them that well, just "the hits".

They're playing in my town next year but I can't justify going to see them only knowing a handful of songs tbh

[Daniel-X]

Peronsally i'd rather **** in my hands and clap.

[joeysteele]

Yes, 'One in Ten' is one of my favourites of them.

[Denver]

The originals are back and their album is #2 in midweeks :clap1:

Their name 'UB40' stands for Unemployment Benefit, Form 40. The band named themselves after the paper form issued by the UK government's Department of Employment for claiming the dole

I LOVE them.
Especially their Elvis bop, they really did justice with it...

[Mystic Mock]

I like UB40, they're not my favourite band ever but I can appreciate the talent behind the group.

[Shaun]

Was forced to listen to a compilation on a drive home from work once and it's basically all the same song. Very boring band.

We already knew this

[Crimson Dynamo]

I do and i like their new song too.

I loved this, i consider still their best track and remember it well from 1980

IXWBeWf185E

[bots]

they are pish

[Morgan.]

Yeah ... nah

[Niamh.]

They're ok, I don't dislike them but I wouldn't buy an album of theirs either :shrug:

[Alf]

I've only ever heard of Red Red Wine (who hasn't) so I can't judge... not really my sort of music, though.And that's not even their song, it's a cover of the Neil Diamond song. Infact most of the hits they had were covers.

[Alf]

Far better UK bands of that era were The Specials and Madness.

[Mystic Mock]

Now I don't like Madness, they feel like they tried too hard to give off a cheeky chappy Cockney vibe, it's not very authentic imo.

I loved Madness :love: I served Suggs when i worked in a pub in London one time :love:

[AnnieK]

God no, Red Red Wine is one of my all time hated songs......don't like any of the others either but Red Red Wine makes me want hurt myself (dramatic I know but hey ho)

[Crimson Dynamo]

I loved Madness :love: I served Suggs when i worked in a pub in London one time :love:

I used to drink with (next to not with, with) Suggs and the madness boys all the time at their local just off Camden High Street The Crown and Goose. They were often in their at a table on a Friday. This was the first pub on our famous "Camden 10" we would do for a new employee or a leaver. ie 10 pubs in Camden and a pint in each.

Ugh shut up :fist:

The pub I worked in was across the way from the LWT TV studios so the odd time a celeb would come in (no one amazing though unfortunately, Ant and Dec were probably the most famous)

[Babayaro.]

They're ok

[Jordan.]

Only hear chavs listen to them especially Red Red Wine.
