5iVe Elements Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Appreciate this jazzy ballad from Like A Virgin. I love this song. Her voice is so beautiful in this. And the ooh la la part, Superstar bow down to Shoo-Bee-Doo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anastaza Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 It's one of my favorites off LAV! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRVC Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I'm trying to get into it.... I really can't... LAV is actually my least fav M album from her catalogue. I know one day I will see the light and embrace this album for it's over the top 80's cheese-fest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattress Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 It's all about the spoken "come here baby... woo!" before the sax solo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryan Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 It's great. Slow intro, which I think people tend to skip to the next track just because of that. But if you listen to it all the way through, you might actually end up liking it. Has anyone here ever listened to the song? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I never cared much for the song until I became an adult. Now, I love it. And yes, I think the slow intro tends to put people off but keep listening! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonski43 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 It's all about the spoken "come here baby... woo!" before the sax solo. Yes! Love that part! I can't take it anymoooooore, baby! I love the LAV album. It was the first album I bought by M in 85. It might sound cheezy now but it was so right for that summer. I don't think it's dated that much soundwise if you hear other songs from that time. It's really sharp production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5iVe Elements Posted January 22, 2014 Author Share Posted January 22, 2014 The slow intro really is tricky. When the beat kicks in, the song soars to greater level. Too bad that Crazy For You was not on the album. They would've complemented each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tumbleweedt Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) I remember my older brother (bless him) would initially ridicule my Madonna fandom by referring to Shoo-Bee-Doo: "the only track on the album she wrote by herself is Shoo-Bee-Doo, Ooh la la". As a Prince fan, at that time he had it easier with the artistic credibility thing. But actually the song is nice and vulnerable. Relevant Madonna quote: “I like to have control over most of the things, but I’m not a tyrant. I don’t have to have it say on my album that it’s written, arranged, produced, directed and stars Madonna. To me, to have total control means you can lose objectivity.” Edited January 22, 2014 by tumbleweedt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larkspur Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I played this song over and over when I first got Like A Virgin. There's nothing flashy about it and I think the title affects people's feelings about it. I think it flows nicely and it's a sweet song. Madonna was leading into the fifties vibe for True Blue. Someone else mentioned how her songs toward the end of her albums tend to lead into the next album or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
