Messiahxxx Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 This is my first topic, and I wanted to dedicate it to one of my favorite songs, a song that's clearly not a fan favorite, one of the songs that made me fall in love with her... I turned around too late to see the fallen star I fell asleep and never saw the sun go down I took your love for granted Thought luck was always on my side I turned around too late and you were gone [Chorus:] So give me one more chance Darlin' if you care for me Let me win your love 'Cause you were always there for me If you care for me, Be there for me I like to play the queen of hearts and never thought I'd lose I rolled the dice but never showed my hand I planned it out so perfectly, So you'd never leave a girl like me I was a fool, but now I understand [chorus] Here is the law of the land You play with fire and you'll get burned Here is the lesson I've learned That you don't know what you've got til it's gone [chorus, without last two lines] Gimme one more chance Tell me that it's not too late Let me win your love Darlin' please don't hesitate If you care for me, Be there for me Give me one more chance It's simple, emotional and lovely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat.Guy Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I love this song so much! I just feel so much sadness in her voice and the way she sings. It's impossible for me not to relate to it and be moved by it. When I'm in a sad mood is the first song I run to it! And makes me better every time! Thank you for this too, Madonna!

Phineaspoe Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I love this song, a less original but heartfelt continuation of I'll Remember. It's a very "unlike her" sort of song, so to me it's a welcome detour. She's also credited as co-songwriter (the other one being David Foster) so I guess she did make a true effort to show a different side of her art.

karbatal Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 It's lazy. Maybe reworked... I think some fans don't like it because it's among INCREDIBLE SONGS. So you can clearly see that is not that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nonoka Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I don't mind it. Not particularly fond of it, but I surely don't see anything in the song which deserves hate. I certainly prefer it over the MDNA singles, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madonnasuperfan01 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I LOVE that song. The melody is simple yet so beautiful. And her voice sound really good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PRPapi Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 (edited) I absolutely LOVE One More Chance! And I, too, don't understand why it's hated so much amongst fans. Not only is the song beautifully simple, not only is the acoustic arrangement flawless, not only is the melody classic M, but the lyrics are poignant, she sings it beautifully, you can hear and feel the emotion behind it all and it proves to all the haters that she IS a true singer/songwriter. My wife, who absolutely can't stand Madonna, (she, generally, has great taste in music, except for this one HUGE flaw) has a short list of M songs she likes (as EVERYone on the planet does), and OMC is her absolute favorite. It makes her cry every time. So, that says something about this song. GREAT topic! Edited December 15, 2014 by PRPapi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PRPapi Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 just out of curiosity....is XSP another one of her favourite M's songs? Nope, it's not. She hates it, actually. Go figure. But, it's one of MY faves! I can literally list the other songs she likes: Human Nature, Secret, Love Tried to Welcome Me - actually, Bedtime Stories is her fave M album and the only one she's ever purchased - WIFLFAG, I Deserve It, Don't Tell Me, Hollywood, Nothing Fails, Get Together, Let It Will Be, 4 Minutes, Beat Goes On, She's Not Me, Miles Away, Devil Wouldn't Recognize You, Girl Gone Wild - she abhors the video, though - Give Me All Your Luvin', Love Spent. And as far as classics go: Holiday, Into the Groove, Crazy for You, Express Yourself and Vogue. That's it. (Well, that's not that short of a list, actually. :-/ I tell her all the time that she's a closet fan - lol!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
