"Madame Helga"
Song
B-side"High as the Ceiling"

"Madame Helga" is a single from the Stereophonics 2003 album You Gotta Go There to Come Back. It reached #4 in the UK charts and was inspired after the band stayed 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 is 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 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.
