Flip The Switch Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Not even a b-side material IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phineaspoe Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I love this devious, underdeveloped song. It's probably the "bside" I listen to the most. If she had sung it a half-key higher (I think that's what you call it), it would have allowed her to show more emotion, which is something a song about being "broken" would have needed.

LHakaLH Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Along with "Latte (LaLa)" and "Across The Sky", one of my favorite unreleased tracks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipa Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I'll never get over the tragedy that was the shunning of BK by Madonna and her team One of her all-time best songs. Classic Madonna in every way. People on this board are probably so tired of me talking about this but I don't care. It's a travesty! Amen! I totally agree!!

Phineaspoe Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 It got a live performance at the Olympia gig. Queen Mo did not shun the Mediterranean song I'm still scratching myself over that one - given the similar choreography, I always wondered if she was considering replacing Revolver with BK for the American leg of the tour (the Olympia show, if I remember correctly, happened towards the end of the European leg). The crowd certainly responded well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest whatatramp Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 The artwork for this is BEAUTIFUL. I wish I owned a physical copy of this. BTW, is ICON still around and operating? Is it even possible to become a new member of it now? they stopped the magazine and newsletters a while ago, I think it's just for pre-sale tickets now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptor_attack Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 The extended version with the techno breakdown at the end is fucking epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VogueMusic Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 "Broken" is a phenomenal song. Really deserved to be polished up for inclusion on Celebration. If "It's So Cool" in that club form made it onto the Celebration (Deluxe), I don't see why this couldn't have. One of the best "B-sides" she has. The whole song just screams "Madonna".

Crystal Coffin Posted August 15, 2014 Author Share Posted August 15, 2014 From the Celebration Wiki page: "The single was given to Madonna's fanclub Icon's official members free as a special 12" vinyl, as a part of their membership. The gift was announced in August 2011, but was actually supposed to be given as a gift in 2010. The single was eventually given to members in late 2012." Fucking hell of a fan club.

Anthonyw Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Yep should have been an extra itunes bonus track or somehow used to promote the album... Probably better than Celebration IMH but less nostalgic so perhaps Warners got this one right... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confessit Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 A little bit off topic but her whole fan club needs a serious re-working as does madonna.com. It's such a shame it's been left out in the cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madgemusic85 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 It's a nice mix of spirituality and dance. But at the same time different from Ray of Light's energy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
