Set to a thumping beat, M tells us in no uncertain terms (and in quite a few different languages) that she is not at all interested in hearing apologies. This was one of the most anticipated songs before the album was released and seems to be a favorite among both fans and critics alike and with good reason as it is absolutely infectious and delivered with great attitude. My favorite parts are the spoken phrases in the multiple languages (I don't know if her pronunciation is correct but she sure sounds sexy and confident) and the breakdown in the middle with all the different vocals going on at once (organized chaos!). I have to say it wasn't one of my immediate favorites when I first heard the album-maybe there was too much hype- but I gradually grew to love it more and more and now I can't imagine the album without it. Here's a link to the Wikipedia page for the song with chart statistics, and quotes from critics among other interesting tidbits: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorry_(Madonna_song) What do you think of this song? Sorry you ever heard it or sorry when it ends? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RebelHart Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Great single. Great song sadly overlooked by radio. the song was pop and disco but had the edge with the muti language parts...I love Madonna's voice in other languages ...I still cant find Veras or Lo Que Siente La Mujer....

s7ven Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) Love it! Back then I wanted to fuck to this song all the time. I must have been 18-19. And I love the double spanish take on the lyrics ("lo siento" & "perdóname" - the latter sounds sexy as fuck). I think it was quite successful in Chile. I remember they played it a lot on the radio, and was the requested song on one of her Sticky & Sweet Santiago dates.

MattyMads Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 An amazing song love it Didn't Madonna say in an interview that it was a silly song? would love to hear it on the new song but if she doesn't like it then we wont hear it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayofmusic Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 She never said she didn't like it... She said the lyrics of the song were silly, eg meaning nothing deep or overly personal.. Whilst comparing to other songs that came from a more darker place and the 'silly' songs turned out to be the hits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crystal Coffin Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I wonder why she did not perform this song at the Koko gig? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starman Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I wonder why she did not perform this song at the Koko gig? Probably becoz of singing (it was playback on CT) and saving for the bigger performance on the tour With more coreography Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip The Switch Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 One of her best videos and she looks amazing. The song is kinda weak, I love the spoken words but something's missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rachelle of London Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Loved this song! Glad it went to number one! It was played everywhere at one point they would play HU then Sorry and you'd turn over and HU was playing and then Sorry. It was mental Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only reached #58 in the US and was hardly played at all where I live. Must be so nice to live in a country where they still appreciate and play Madonna songs on the radio.

TearsInHeaven Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 love it, it was everywhere in Milan when i used to live there. you entered in a shop and HU was playing, you entered in another shop and Sorry was playing - it was very well received in clubs too and obviously everyone was singing along. i think i haven't watched the video in 5 years, not a big fan of it ( she looks fantastic in it though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocknrolla Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I always like it when I listen to Confessions or come across it randomly, but it's not a song I ever seek out to listen to on its own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sloane Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I'm not sorry to say I love SORRY. Pet Shop Remix is LIFE, single cover is LIFE. I love her chants in different languages saying "sorry." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloane Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tYESERTJ6I The first 20 seconds of this is LIFE. A few good steps she does too in this number. I just don't like all the jumping around on dancers' backs and mocking fighting lol cheesy. The Sorry interlude is LIFE though!
