"Madame Helga" is a single from the Stereophonics 2003 album You Gotta Go There to Come Back. It was inspired by the band's stay at Helga's Folly while they were on tour in Sri Lanka. The folly itself is owned by a woman called Helga Desilva Blow Perera and that was where the title "Madame Helga" came from. The song is also one of the heavier tracks produced by the band along with "Vegas Two Times". The song reached number four on the UK Singles Chart and number 15 on the Irish Singles Chart in May 2003. The song is track 3 on You Gotta Go There To Come Back. There is also a live version of the track on the Live from Dakota album. The music video was directed by Robert Hales. Despite being one of the band's highest charting singles, it does not feature on the standard edition of the band's 2008 greatest hits album Decade in the Sun: Best of Stereophonics.more »
