This lighthearted song was performed during the Gypsy segment of the Sticky & Sweet Tour. Dressed in a gorgeous black dress with colourful ribbons, designed by Givenchy, Madonna bumps and grinds her dancers who are all dressed up like monks. The screens show the silhouette of dancer Stella Angelova with the Spanish words flashing in whenever Madonna sings them. The end of the song turns Flamenco-style when a dancer does a solo with everyone else clapping, before smoothly flowing into Miles Away.

Lyrics I'm talking, I'm talking I believe in the power of love I'm singing, I'm singing I believe that you can rescue me With you I'm not a little girl With you I'm not a man When all the hurt inside of me comes out You understand You see that I'm ferocious You see that I am weak You see that I am silly And pretentious and a freak But I don't feel too strange for you Don't know exactly what you do I think when love is pure you try To understand the reasons why And I prefer this mystery It cancels out my misery And gives me hope that there could be A person that loves me Rescue me (Rescue me) It's hard to believe Your love has given me hope Rescue me (Rescue me) It's hard to believe I'm drowning, baby throw out your rope With you I'm not a fascist Can't play you like a toy And when I need to dominate You're not my little boy You see that I am hungry For a life of understanding And you forgive my angry little heart When she's demanding You bring me to my knees While I'm scratching out the eyes Of a world I want to conquer And deliver, and despise And right while I am kneeling there I suddenly begin to care And understand that there could be A person that loves me Rescue me (Rescue me) It's hard to believe Your love has given me hope Rescue me (Rescue me) It's hard to believe I'm drowning, baby throw out your rope Love is understanding It's hard to believe Life can be so demanding I'm sending out an S.O.S. Stop me from drowning Baby I'll do the rest Rescue me (Rescue me) Your love has given me hope (Your love has given me hope) Rescue me (Rescue me) I'm drowning Baby throw out your rope (Baby throw out your rope) Rescue me (Rescue me) Your love has given me hope (Your love has given me hope) Rescue me (Rescue me) I'm drowning Baby throw out your rope (Baby throw out your rope) Ooh ahh, ooh ahh, love is understanding Ooh ahh, ooh ahh, love is understanding Love is understanding It's hard to believe Life can be so demanding I'm sending out an S.O.S. Rescue me, rescue me It's not my business to decide How good you are for me How valuable you are And what the world can see Only that you try to understand me And have the courage to love me for me I believe (I believe in the power) I believe that you can rescue me (I believe that you can rescue me) I believe (I believe in the power) I believe that you can rescue me (I believe that you can rescue me) I'm singing I believe (I believe in the power) I believe that you can rescue me (I believe that you can rescue me) I'm singing, I'm singing, I'm singing (I believe in the power) I believe that you can rescue me (I believe that you can rescue me) I'm talking, I'm talking (I believe in the power) I believe in the power of love (I believe that you can rescue me) I'm talking, I'm talking (I believe in the power) I believe in the power of love (I believe that you can rescue me) I'm singing, I'm singing, I believe (I believe in the power) I believe that you can rescue me (I believe that you can rescue me) Hey hey, hey hey (I believe in the power) R.E.S.C.U.E. me (I believe you can rescue me) Only you can rescue me Hey hey, hey...

After the success of Justify My Love, Rescue Me was released in February 1991 (US) - April 1991 (Europe). This song, which shows how powerful Madonna's voice really is, is my personal favorite. Though often over-looked, it was a top 10 hit, reaching #9 in the US (Gold), #3 in the UK and #4 in Canada. In Japan and Australia it was good for respectively #11 and #15. On the Hot Dance / Club Play it peaked at #5. » Buy on Amazon Video After finishing her Blond Ambition Tour and releasing Justify My Love (with all the commotion surrounding the controversial video), Madonna was busy with movie projects and other stuff, so she lacked the time to make a video to support Rescue Me. Since Rescue Me was never performed live, there couldn't be a live performance video either, so it became one of the few Madonna singles without a video. However, some music channels showed a video compiled of different live performances.

Lyrics You lost your reputation on a woman You didn't understand or care to know You get your education from your lovers But now there's just no place for you to go It doesn't pay To be a runaway lover It doesn't pay To give away what you lack You'll never get your money back You're set adrift with no direction Just like a ship that's lost at sea You don't care where you drop your anchor Make sure it doesn't land on me It doesn't pay To be a runaway lover It doesn't pay To give away what you lack You'll never get your money back It doesn't pay To be a runaway lover It doesn't pay To give away what you lack You'll never get your money back (It doesn't pay, doesn't pay, doesn't pay,...) Walking around on a cloud 'Cause every girl you meet just trips on you Saying your name out loud I guess you met your match Now what will you do Uh uh, no way It doesn't pay To be a runaway lover It doesn't pay To give away what you lack You'll never get your money back It doesn't pay To be a runaway lover It doesn't pay To give away what you lack You'll never get your money back Walking around on a cloud 'Cause every girl you meet just trips on you Saying your name out loud I guess you met your match Now what will you do It doesn't pay It doesn't pay It doesn't pay To give your heart away To a runaway lover Uh uh, no way Uh uh, no way Uh uh, no way Credits Written by Madonna and William Orbit Produced by Madonna and William Orbit Keyboards, guitars and backing vocals by William Orbit Drums by Steve Sidelnyk Album Music Song This song moves away from the deep, spiritual lyrics that were remarkable for Ray Of Light, but instead opts for a heavy dancefloor track. Madonna performed it during her gigs at the Roseland Ballroom and the Brixton Academy in November 2000, but nixed the song from her Drowned World Tour.

Lyrics Surely whoever speaks to me in the right voice Him or her I shall follow Who needs the sun When the rain's so full of life Who needs the sky It's here in your arms I want to be buried You are My sanctuary Who needs the sun When the rain's so full of life Who needs the sky When the ground's open wide It's here in your arms I want to be buried You are My sanctuary Who needs a smile When a tear's so full of love Who needs a home With the stars up above It's here in your heart I want to be carried You are My sanctuary Who needs the light With the darkness in your eyes Who needs to sleep With the stars in the sky It's here in your soul I want to be married You are My sanctuary And the earth was void and empty And darkness was upon the face of the earth Is all of this pain so necessary You Are My sanctuary Surely whoever speaks to me in the right voice Him or her I shall follow As the water follows the moon Silently (Who needs the sun) With fluid steps (Who needs the sky) Around the globe ( Who needs to sleep) I hear your voice You are (you are) My sanctuary You are (you are) You are (you are) My sanctuary Credits Written by Madonna, Dallas Austin, Anne Preven, Scott Cutler and Herbie Hancock Produced by Madonna and Dallas Austin Remixed by Nellee Hooper Sanctuary contains a sample of 'Watermelon Man', performed by Herbie Hancock. Madonna also used lines from the poem 'Leaves Of Grass' by Walt Whitman.

Lyrics You can call me a sinner And you can call me a saint Celebrate me for who I am Dislike me for what I ain't Put me up on a pedestal Or drag me down in the dirt Sticks and stones will break my bones But your names will never hurt I'll be the garden, you'll be the snake All of my fruit is yours to take Better the devil that you know Your love for me will grow Because This is who I am You can like it or not You can love me or leave me Cause I'm never gonna stop, no no Cleopatra had her way Mata Hari too Whether they were good or bad Is strictly up to you Life is a paradox And it doesn't make much sense Can't have femme without the fatale Please don't take offense Don't let the fruit rot under the vine Fill up your cup and let's drink the wine Better the devil that you know Your love for me will grow Because This is who I am You can like it or not You can love me or leave me Cause I'm never gonna stop, no no, you know This is who I am You can like it or not You can love me or leave me Cause I'm never gonna stop, no no, you know No no, you know No no, you know No no, you know No no, you know I'll be the garden, you'll be the snake All of my fruit is yours to take Better the devil that you know Your love for me will grow Because This is who I am You can like it or not You can love me or leave me Cause I'm never gonna stop, no no, you know This is who I am You can like it or not You can love me or leave me Cause I'm never gonna stop, no no, you know No no, you know No no, you know No no, you know No no, you know Credits Written by Madonna, Christian Karlsson, Pontus Winnberg and Henrik Jonback Produced by Madonna and Bloodshy & Avant Additional programming by Stuart Price and Mango Guitar and bass by Henrik Jonback Acoustic guitar by Monte Pittman Album Confessions On A Dance Floor Tour Stuart Price on this song "It's the perfect way to end the album. It basically says "This is who I am, this is what I do. Take it or leave it." On the Confessions Tour, Madonna found it the perfect way to end the Bedouin part of the show. The performance is kept very basic, with a sexy Madonna alone on stage, singing and dancing in cabaret-style with a chair as her only attribute, and concentrated on her strong vocals. The screen behind her shows a big green snake, clearly referring to the lyrics. At the end, Madonna disappears from the stage, as a red rose grows from the green plants on the screen.

Lyrics (intro:) Girls can wear jeans And cut their hear short Wear shirts and boots Cause it's okay to be a boy But for a boy to look like a girl is degrading Because you think being a girl is degrading But secretly You'd love to know what it's like Wouldn't you? What it feels like for a girl Deliciosa Labio suave y rosa... Baby Piel de miel, dulce y silenciosa Te parece confundida Su pasión esta escondida Nunca sabes lo que va a decir cuando empieza a sonreir Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer Quieres ver y tratar de comprender... la mujer Seductora pero nunca fácil... Baby Misteriosamente dura y frágil Lagrimas que no te enseña Su dolor no deja huella No la trates ya de impresionar solo déjate llevar Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer Quieres ver y tratar de comprender.. la mujer Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer Quieres ver y tratar de comprender Lo que siente la mujer Te parece confundida Su pasión esta escondida Nunca sabes lo que va a decir Cuando empieza a sonreír Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer Quieres ver y tratar de comprender.. la mujer Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer Quieres ver y tratar de comprender La mujer... comprender... Quieres ver Quieres ver Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer Y tratar de comprender Credits Written by Madonna and Guy Sigsworth Produced by Madonna, Guy Sigsworth and Mark -Spike- Stent Programming, guitars and keyboards by Guy Sigsworth Spanish translation by Alberto Ferraras The intro is an excerpt from the movie 'The Cement Garden'. The words are spoken by actrice Charlotte Gainsbourg, daughter of Serge -je t'aime moi non plus- Gainsbourg. Madonna got her inspiration for the song after seeing this particular scene. Album Music, Limited tour edition Song This is the spanish version of What It Feels Like For A Girl, which appeared on one of the maxi-singles. Spanish fans were not very enthousiastic about it, as the Spanish translation seems to be rather poor. Check out Miss Boogie Woogie to see a literal English translation of the Spanish lyrics. Spanish web mistress Emma also made a much better version, called Como Se Siente Una Chica. Tour On the Drowned World Tour, she only sang the Spanish version of What It Feels Like For A Girl, because it fit in better with the Spanish-Latin part of the show. Wearing a beautiful black Gaultier-dress, she was sitting on a spinning stage. Then she stepped down and started dancing with each of the female dancers. Following the theme of the song, no men were on stage.

Lyrics There are too many questions There is not one solution There is no resurrection There is so much confusion And the love profusion You make me feel You make me know And the love vibration You make me feel You make it shine There are too many options There is no consolation I have lost my illusions What I want is an explanation And the love profusion You make me feel You make me know And the love direction You make me feel You make me shine You make me feel You make me shine You make me feel I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin There is no comprehension There is real isolation There is so much destruction What I want is a celebration And I know I can feel bad When I get in a bad mood And the world can look so sad Only you make me feel good I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin And the love profusion You make me feel You make me know And the love intention You make me feel You make me shine You make me feel You make me shine You make me feel I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin I got you under my skin And I know I can feel bad When I get in a bad mood And the world can look so sad Only you make me feel good Credits Written by Madonna and Mirwais Ahmadzaï Produced by Madonna and Mirwais Ahmadzaï Programming, guitars and backing vocals by Mirwais Ahmadzaï Album .American Life Single On April 14th, 2003, this song premiered online on the website of AOL. Later that year, the song was used in a commercial for Estée Lauder's Beyond Paradise fragrance. In December 2003 it was released together with Nothing Fails. With both songs appearing on every format, they were considered as a double A-side single in some territories, while charting separately in other places (like UK and Australia). In the US and France, the Love Profusion single was released on March 16th, 2004, using the cover on the left. The same month it already peaked at #1 of the Billboard Hot Dance / Club Play chart. Remixes were made by Blow-Up, The Passengerz, Ralphi Rosario, Craig J. and Ray Caroll. » Buy on Amazon Video Though Nothing Fails was pushed forward as radio single in most territories, it was only Love profusion that got a video. After shooting the Estée Lauder commercial, French director Luc Besson also shot this video in one day in October, using the same concept and visual effects as the commercial. It's a performance video, in which Madonna, in a simple flower dress, walks through two different dimensions: a dark city in stormy weather and a colorful dreamworld with flowers and dancing fairies. "There are a lot of special effects," Madonna said of the clip. "I talked to things that weren't there - which is what you do when you're doing green-screen or blue-screen stuff. There's going to be a lot of fairies dancing around me. "Isn't that exciting?" she added, laughing. "I always have a lot of fairies dancing around me." Tour Surprisingly, Love Profusion wasn't played on the Re-Invention Tour, even though it was Madonna's most recent single. According to rumours she did rehearse the song but cut it out of the final setlist.

Released in 1984, it charted at #4 in the US and #14 in the UK (one of the very few Madonna singles that peaked outside of the UK Top 10). It became the first out of 16 consecutive Top 5 hits on Billboard, a feat that surpassed the Beatles' record. Because of that huge success, the release of Madonna's second album had to be pushed back to the end of 1984. Video A video was made for the '84 release, directed by Arthur Pierson. It basically showed Madonna dancing around all the time in front of a white background, exploiting her Boy Toy image to the top: a wild haircut, dressed in black punky clothes, that she would later describe as 'rags'. Tour Lucky Star got its premiere on the Virgin Tour, where Madonna performed it in her black outfit (with a cross on her chest) similar to the video choreography. Lucky Star was also performed on the Who's That Girl Tour, right after the opening number Open Your Heart. The twinkling keyboard sound and the turning disco ball make all the stars shine around Madonna. But with some extra uptempo beats she knows to turn this love song into a dancy performance. Almost two decades later, Lucky Star was performed live again, on the Confessions Tour. After the exhausting La Isla Bonita, Madonna crashes down on stage, but backup singers Nicki & Donna bring her back on her feet, covering her with a magical cape, which reads "Dancing Queen" on the back (another Abba reference, while the rest of her outfit is a combination of Agnetha's & Frida's from their late 70s tour). As Madonna opens the cape, the inside shows twinkling disco balls (lucky stars?). Madonna performs a great version of Lucky Star, sung over the instrumental of Hung Up, together with Donna and Nicki (the only time the backup singers get their part in the spotlight). At the end of the song, Madonna asks the audience if they want more and sings the chorus of Hung Up, then goes offstage for her final costume change, building up the anticipation for the encore.

Lyrics Should have left you standing right where you stood Should have let you go Should have had the sense to know Like a train you'd come And I'd lose my place Now I'm on this trip I took a fall from grace Nowhere to run Nowhere to hide From the look of love From the eyes of pride Nowhere to go No place to run From the look of love Now I've come undone I've had a map laid out From the day I was born But the roads are blocked And the paper is worn And all the books I've read And the things I know Never taught me to laugh Never taught to let go Nowhere to run Nowhere to hide From the look of love From the eyes of pride Nowhere to go No place to run From the look of love Now I've come undone My conscience is clear, I know right from wrong That's a lie, I know nothing except that you're gone But there's more to learn from the look in your eyes That trip round this world, the stars in the sky Now all the books I've read And the things I know Never taught me to live Never taught me to let go Nowhere to run Nowhere to hide From the look of love From the eyes of pride Nowhere to go No place to run From the look of love Now I've come undone Nowhere to run Nowhere to hide From the look of love Lord knows I've tried Nowhere to go No place to run From the look of love Now I've come undone (Nowhere to hide) (No place to run) (Nowhere to hide) (No place to run) (Nowhere to hide) Credits Written by Madonna and Patrick Leonard Produced by Madonna and Patrick Leonard Album Who's That Girl (OST) Single This lovely ballad was only released late 1987 in Europe and Japan. In the UK it didn't get higher than #9 and in Japan it stalled at #20. Video There was no official video to support the single release of The Look Of Love. Tour This song brought a great intimate moment to the Who's That Girl Tour. Madonna is all alone in the spotlight. As she's walking around on stage, she seems completely lost, like Niki when she strolls alone through the city (in the movie). At the end she's struggling against the conveyor belt that in the end takes her along.

yrics Sky fits heaven so fly it That's what the prophet said to me Child fits mother so hold your baby tight That's what my future could see Fate fits karma so use it That's what the wise man said to me Love fits virtue so hold on to the light That's what our future will be Traveling down this road Watching the signs as I go I think I'll follow the sun Isn't everyone just Traveling down their own road Watching the signs as they go I think I'll follow my heart It's a very good place to start Traveling down my own road Watching the signs as I go Traveling down my own road And I'm watching the signs as I go Traveling traveling Watching the signs as I go Hand fits giving so do it That's what the Gospel said to me Life fits living so let your judgments go That's how our future should be Traveling down this road Watching the signs as I go I think I'll follow the sun Isn't everyone just Traveling down their own road Watching the signs as they go I think I'll follow my heart It's a very good place to start Traveling down my own road Watching the signs as they go Traveling down my own road And I'm watching the signs as I go Traveling traveling Watching the signs as I go CreditsWritten by Madonna and Patrick Leonard Produced by Madonna, William Orbit and Patrick Leonard Sky Fits Heaven contains some lines from a poem by Max Blagg. The original poem reads: "Sky fits heaven, so ride it. Child fits mother, so hold your baby tight. Lips fit mouth, so kiss them". Blagg recited this poem for a 1993 Gap commercial, 10 years before Madonna did her own Gap ad. It was rumoured that Madonna paid Blagg for using the lines without having to credit him in the album's liner notes. Album Ray Of Light SongThis catchy dance-trance song wasn't released as a single, but was a favorite among remixers. Two remixes featured as B-singles for Drowned World/Substitute For Love (UK and Japan).Tour No doubt one of the highlights of the Drowned World Tour was the performance of Sky Fits Heaven. During Mer Girl all of a sudden the beat kicks in and Madonna jumps from the jungle-like decor. Attached to a cord she flies through the sky, kicking the 'evil spirit' dancers in a true kungfu-style. Inspiration for this scene was the movie 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon'.

I'm not like this all the time (kiss, kiss,...) I'm not like this all the time (kiss, kiss, kiss me...) Put your hand on my skin Put your hand on my skin Credits Written by Madonna and Patrick Leonard Produced by Madonna, William Orbit and Marius De Vries Guitar by Marc Moreau Album Ray Of Light Song With Skin Madonna's music evolves more into tribal dance-trance and techno, a new sound she tries for the first time and which is best illustrated with her nickname during the making of the Ray Of Light album: Veronica Electronica... The original title for this song was 'Flirtation Dance'. In a MTV documentary with Kurt Loder we see Madonna scratching that title and replacing it by 'Skin'. When Kurt asks her what the original title was, she just answers 'never mind!'. Skin was first rumoured to become the final single for the Ray Of Light album, but these plans got cancelled, probably because of insufficient time between the releases of Nothing Really Matters and Beautiful Stranger.

Lyrics My guy is really something, he's sensitive and shy My guy is such a bumpkin, it doesn't take much to make him cry If you hurt someone helpless, it's like taking away all his toys He's just a cry baby boy My guy is sentimental, he's always feeling blue He can be so temperamental and I don't know what I should do If you step on a little bug he cries all over the floor He's just a cry baby bore I don't want to hurt his feelings But his outbursts have me really Boo-hoo-hoo-ing all the time If I turn out like him, I think I'm gonna cry, baby La, la, la, la, la, la He's such a cry baby La, la, la, la, la, la And I'll tell you something else My guy is such a wet noodle, he's always teary-eyed He acts like a real cock-a-doodle, he can't even tell you why If you just play him a sappy song, he acts like his doggie just died He's just a cry baby guy No kidding, oh dear My guy is such a whiner, he's worse than baddie so A cockroach seen in the diner, and the tears flow out of the blue And if I ask him to knock it off, he goes and cries in the can He's just a cry baby man I don't want to hurt his feelings But his outbursts have me really Boo-hoo-hoo-ing all the time If I turn out like him, I think I'm gonna cry, baby La, la, la, la, la, la He's such a cry baby La, la, la, la, la, la I love a cry baby La, la, la, la, la, la He's such a cry baby La, la, la, la, la, la Would you knock it off please?

Lyrics In my hallucination I saw my Beloved's flower garden In my vertigo In my dizziness In my drunken haze Whirling and dancing like a spinning wheel I saw myself as the source of existence I was there in the beginning And I was the Spirit of Love Now I am sober There is only the hangover And the memory of love And only the sorrow I yearn for happiness I ask for help I want mercy And my Love says "Look at me and hear me Because I am here just with that" I am your moon and your moonlight too I am your flower garden and your water too I have come all this way eager for you Without shoes or shawl I want you to laugh To kill all your worries To love you To nourish you Oh the sweet bitterness I will soothe you and heal you I will bring you roses I too have been covered with thorns Credits Written by Rumi Edited by Deepak Chopra Read by Madonna Album A Gift Of Love - Music inspired by The Love Poems of Rumi Song In the 13th century Persian poet Rumi (named after the city where he lived) composed works of mysticism and desire that inspired countless people in his own time and throughout the centuries. His poems expressed the deepest longings of the human heart for its beloved, for that transcendent intimacy which is the source of the divine. Contemporary spiritualist Deepak Chopra got inspired by Rumi's Love Poems and asked several celebrities to read them to music. Among them are Demi Moore, Goldie Hawn, Martin Sheen, Debra Winger and of course Madonna. Madonna choose the poem Bittersweet. Devoted Madonnafan Barney Medunic also used an acapella version of the track for his great (unofficial) remix Whirling and Dancing, which was very popular on Napster.

Lyrics A long long time ago I can still remember How that music used to make me smile And I knew that if I had my chance I could make those people dance And maybe they'd be happy for a while Did you write the book of love And do you have faith in God above If the Bible tells you so Now do you believe in rock 'n roll And can music save your mortal soul And can you teach me how to dance real slow Well, I know that you're in love with him Cause I saw you dancin in the gym You both kicked off your shoes Man, I dig those rhythm and blues I was a lonely teenage broncin buck With a pink carnation and a pickup truck But I knew that I was out of luck The day the music died I started singing Bye bye Miss American Pie Drove my chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye Singin this will be the day that I die This will be the day that I die I met a girl who sang the blues And I asked her for some happy news But she just smiled and turned away Well, I went down to the sacred store Where I'd heard the music years before But the man there said the music wouldn't play Well now in the streets the children screamed The lovers cried and the poets dreamed But not a word was spoken The church bells all were broken And the three men I admire the most The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost They caught the last train for the coast The day the music died We started singing Bye bye Miss American Pie Drove my chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye Singin this will be the day that I die This will be the day that I die Bye bye Miss American Pie Drove my chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye Singin this will be the day that I die This will be the day that I die We started singin' We started singin' We started singin' Credits Written by Don McLean Produced by Madonna and William Orbit Background vocals by Rupert Everett Mixed by Mark -Spike- Stent Guitars, drums and keyboards by William Orbit Album The Next Best Thing (OST) Music (Non-US version) Single In 2000 Madonna and Rupert Everett starred in The Next Best Thing, a comedy drama. Madonna's character is Abbey, a single woman in her early 30s who ends up having a child with her gay friend. The movie tries to handle issues as single parentship, child custody and homosexuality. At one point Abbey and her friends are at the funeral of a friend who died from aids and they start singing Don McLean's classic 'American Pie'. Rupert Everett convinced Madonna to cover the song and add it to the soundtrack. Madonna and William Orbit reworked the song, making it shorter and more dancy. Released in the spring of 2000, American Pie reached #1 in a lot of countries, including the UK, Canada, Australia, Italy and Finland. Ironically there was no commercial single release in the US, but the single still reached the #29 spot, just based on airplay. The song was added as a bonus track on the Music album (outside the US). In an interview with BBC's Jo Whiley in November 2001, Madonna admits regretting this decision, which "a certain record company exec twisted her arm into doing". To 'punish' the song, it wasn't included in GHV2. Video The video pays tribute to the seventies in which the original song by Don McLean was recorded. They show several snaps of ordinary people; playing children, happy couples, a lonely woman in a store, etc. Director Philip Stolzl used a lot of splitscreens to show both those ordinary people and a rather extraordinary Madonna. Maddy is dressed in a blue shirt and a baggy jeans. On her dark blonde Raphael curls she's wearing a tiara. All through the video she's dancing in front of a large American flag. Rupert Everett - who did backing vocals - appears once in a while too, but there are no scenes from the movie. Funniest moments of the video are when Madonna turns around and shows the crack of her ass, and at the end, when she pulls up her trousers and then tears them when she sits down.

Lyrics To have and not to hold So hot yet so cold My heart is in your hand And yet you never stand Close enough for me to have my way To love but not to keep To laugh not to weep Your eyes they go right through And yet you never do Anything to make me want to stay Like a moth To a flame Only I Am to blame Ba ba da ba ba ba, what can I do Ba ba da ba ba ba, I go straight to you Ba ba da ba ba ba, I've been told You're to have not to hold To look but not to see To kiss but never be The object of your desire I'm walking on a wire And there's no one at all To break my fall Like a moth To a flame Only I Am to blame Ba ba da ba ba ba, what can I do Ba ba da ba ba ba, I go straight to you Ba ba da ba ba ba, I've been told You're to have not to hold You're to have not to hold You're to have Not to hold Like a moth To a flame Only I Am to blame Ba ba da ba ba ba, what can I do Ba ba da ba ba ba, I go straight to you Ba ba da ba ba ba, I've been told You're to have not to hold You're to have not to hold You're to have not to hold You're to have Not to hold Credits Written by Madonna and Rick Nowels Produced by Madonna, William Orbit and Patrick Leonard Album Ray Of Light Song This song was one of the first songs Madonna wrote for the album, teaming up with longtime collaborator Pat Leonard. She sings about an impossible love. Notice the connection with the theme of Forbidden Love: 'rejection is the greatest aphrodisiac'. THANTH was a B-single for Nothing Really Matters (US).

Tour The Drowned World/Substitute For Love video theme had been used on the Who's That Girl Tour already: the Where's The Party performance starts off with a scan of a New York Post article, titled "Madonna: I'm not ashamed" which is about the nude pictures in Playboy. As the dancers carry big cameras and act like paparazzi, Madonna appears on stage as a real diva with flashy sun glasses and a boa around her neck. Not intimidated by her stalkers, she sings her party song. Blond Ambition Tour: after fooling around with Niki and Donna during Causing A Commotion, Madonna and the girls perform this dance song. Later they're joined by the boys for a great dance routine. The boys take over and show off their impressive moves, while Madonna gets ready for her steamy Like A Virgin performance.

It's actually a remix of Goodbye To Innocence, starting with the first verse of that song, then turning into a dance beat, interlaced with the words 'down, up, up, up'.

While it was dumped for the album, it was later rumoured to appear on some benefit album, after being reworked by Missy Elliott co-producer Timbaland (which never happened). In 2003, it was surprisingly included on the EP Remixed & Revisited, released on November 25th.

Lyrics What can you lose? Only the blues Why keep concealing everything you're feeling? Say it to her, what can you lose? Maybe it shows She's had clues, which she chose to ignore Maybe though she knows And just wants to go on as before As a friend, nothing more So she closes the door Well, if she does Those are the dues Once the words are spoken Something may be broken Still, you love her What can you lose? But what if she goes? At least now, you have part of her What if she had to choose? Leave it alone Hold it all in Better a bone Don't even begin With so much to win There's too much to lose Credits Written by Stephen Sondheim Produced by Madonna and Bill Bottrell Piano by Bill Schneider Arranged by Jeremy Lubbock Male voice: Mandy Patinkin Album I'm Breathless Song This song was taken from the movie Dick Tracy.
