Shane Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 The hell if this is going to be the lone song without its own appreciation thread, not talking about that shambles of a chart thread. Fucking gorgeous. The return of balladeer Madonna. The Love Spent/Masterpiece/Falling Free trilogy rendered me weak, and I don't go weak for nothing. At least one or two of you bitches better comment in this thread The fucking chorus and vocals! Golden Globe winner! Fuck you Elton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Not4Pussies Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 the song is louder on MDNA than it is on the W.E. soundtrack, just an observationnnn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bluejean Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Signed. Love this song. And those rumours about it not fitting the album were such rubbish. I guess it was a toss up between this and 'I Fucked Up' but they made the right choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmericanLife95825 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 yay!!! for master........... piece!!! it's a great song and i think it looks pretty hot sitting pretty at #10 on the tracklist for MDNA. shoulda been a single *Shakes fist at sky* ***Oppsies.. #11, i had to add GMAYL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agclef Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I love this song - perfect Madonna ballad, voice is beautiful on it and it's a GREAT addition to the album. I like how most reviewers are calling it flamenco-sounding, she's still sneaks in the latin-flavored tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest I'llTeachYouHowTo... Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 i never saw a problem with the song, and when the rumors were going around that it wouldn't make the album, i was really disappointed, so i'm happy that it made it. i think it fits in beautifully on the album, and i think it will end up being one of my favorite M songs down the line.

BoyToy Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Fits great on the album,I was dubious when hearing it would be included but it's Perfect as a near album closer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellenger1981 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I've really grown to love "Masterpiece". I would rank it among my Top 3 favorites on the album. It's stunning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Fukujima Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 i didn't like it when it leaked but i really like it in the context of the album, it's a very felt and beautifully sung ballad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gigolo Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I haven't heard Masterpiece until I listened to MDNA and was pleasantly surprised. I fucking luv the song, the melody, the chorus. It may have something to do with what's going in my personal life, I also have my "masterpiece" but it had a sad ending. Anyways, the song is gorgeous, and I'm curious to hear an acoustic version, or maybe even have Patrick Leonard do a version with his keyboards.

Brisy_Boy Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I've really grown to love "Masterpiece". I would rank it among my Top 3 favorites on the album. It's stunning. It should have a proper video and single release... and having already a Golden Globe on it's back would probably work out as good buzz for the song as a single...

Shane Posted March 30, 2012 Author Share Posted March 30, 2012 Thirty years in, I remain fascinated by this woman's knack for a hook and a fetching chorus. This song reminds me so much of the Rain, I'll Remember, You'll See era, which was not for everyone but was definitely for me! So glad to see proper ballads for the first time since AL. I love DWRY, but feel it is just a bit too fast to qualify. I love how she told Seacrest that "you gotta have those" or what not re: ballads after being so against them the last two albums. So so happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jamesshot Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 It is a really lovely song. Nice lyrics and wonderful, soothing melody. I really didn't think too much of it at first but I really appreciate it now. It deserved that Golden Globe. We'll never know if it would have been an Oscar nominee or winner with its ineligibility but if any of her songs could have done it, this one had a great chance.

AmericanLife95825 Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 was kinda surprised the sticker on the front of the record didn't say "including the award winning theme from the movie W/E." i know that's random, but i sure woulda put a sticker on my album sayin that haha!
