Two-tone/ska revival icons Madness appear to be teasing a new single with the help of Dame Helen Mirren.
In a video uploaded to their official YouTube channel, Dame Helen Mirren reads what appears to be the lyrics to a forthcoming single, "C'est La Vie".
The caption to the video reads: ""C'est La Vie” has long been the prime suspect to be our first single in 7 years. It seemed only right to ask royalty to proof read the lyrics for us, without even hearing the track... You and Dame Helen will be able to hear the actual song on Thursday 28th September".
"C'est La Vie" will be the band's latest single, following on from the 2016 album, Can't Touch Us Now.
