Crux Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 And what about Dear Father? What about it? Seriously though, it's a decent enough song, but I can understand why it was never released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karbatal Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 ^ Wash your mouth!!!!!! It would have been soooo great in Erotica... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 It's an amazing song but very literal which would have stuck out like a sore thumb on Erotica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryan Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 It's kinda weird when she says, "Help me take a bath."Help me take the path less traveled byHelp me understand all the reasons why... I can invision myself singing this song on stage, so because if that, it's a terrific and well written track. Just needed done polishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karbatal Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 I like a lot Madonna's voice in demos, when she yells a bit and sings in a carefree way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vocalism Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I like this song. I hope there's a high quality version leaked one day. I do remember being surprised it was an Andre Betts track and not a Shep track when I first heard it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albertogerard Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Andre Betts was quoted as saying this song "was about her relationship with GOD". Madonna apparently LOVED this track but shelved it when she found out that a musician she had clashed with more than once in the 80's had played the bass part on it. Madonna did not want to share publishing credits with him. Andre also said this song was to have been Track 4 on the "Erotica" album. Makes you wonder where "Deeper And Deeper" would have ended up on the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albertogerard Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Random/weird. Source? Andre Betts was interviewed by Lucy O'Brien (Brian?) She printed portions of the interview in her book Madonna: Like An Icon. Great interview. He has a LOT of great stories about the making of "Erotica".
