IT'S SO COOL!

The chorus subtly borrows from Mirwais' song "Junkie's Prayer".

Are you sure about that ? I didn't notice... I guess I have to listen to Mirwais song again !

I Like IT'S SO COOL very much. Perfect as a bonus track for me !

Well considering Keep The Trance was never supposed to be released, Hey You was barely a release and this is a mere bonus track.

i agree but at the same time i just used that to answer part of the reason the lyrics are so bad... if not for that, it'd still be so juvenile and kind of awkward lol

Gotcha. No overtly gay sounding Madonna songs.

"Vogue"

"Express yourself"

"Deeper and deeper"

"Rescue me"

"Future lovers"

"Hung up"

"Celebration"

"Don't cry for me Argentina" (Miami mix)

"It's so cool"

Umm....Celebration and It's So Cool are the only ones. I mean that generic house beat.....that's what I'm calling gay. The songs on Confessions didn't sound like that.

...so the only ones that are "gay sounding" are the ones produced by oakenfold? he did celebration and remixed it's so cool

Ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhaha. Pediatric? That is the most crazy description I have heard, ever. It doesn't remind me much at all of Hey you or Keep the trance. Are we listening to the same song here? :rotfl: Well I suppose the save your soul lyrics are quite similar, but overall lyrically it reminds me much more of American life:

ISC:

It's so hard to be someone,

it's so hard to be unkwown.

AL:

I tried to be a mess,

I tried to be the best

I guess I did it wrong,

That's why I wrote this song

ISC:

In your heart you are to blame

in your heart you play the game.

Do you realize you pay the price?

Do you know the cost of all your vice?

AL:

I tried to play the part,

But somehow I forgot

Just what I did it for

And why I wanted more

ISC:

Do you really know God's intention?

Do you ever ask what it's all for?

We need love, love and love,

we need more, more and more.

AL:

I'd like to express my extreme point of view

I'm not Christian and I'm not a Jew

I'm just living out the American dream

And I just realized that nothing Is what it seems

I really can't hear any comparison between it and and Junkies prayer. At all. Which part exactly? Oh and I didn't actually realise what everyone kept going on about with the r's. Now I realise it's in heart. Doesn't bother me at all. Oh and I forgot to mention that I really love it when we get b sides of songs that later mutated or evolved into other songs. It gives you some kind of insight into the artistic direction and inspiration she was involved in at the time. I love it a lot actually.

I agree with you on it sounding like the song american life, but where i think is a divergence goes (in a good way) is that it's so cool is one of the few songs that DO NOT reference madonna in first person or any self reference. i only meant thematically and a few choice words lead it to keep the trance / hey you, but i don't mean it to say it's cut and paste like parts of keep the trance were verbatim into hey you... it's the theme, and the kind of message it sends, and i also didn't mean it in a particularly horrid way. i like the song, but i stick with my "pediatric" lyrics assessment. i think madge tries too hard to rhyme... i honestly expected her to say "it's so good to be ungood" by the third or fourth time i heard the song lol

Just the title IT'S SO COOL is cringeworthy enough, i'll forgive her though seems that it's just a, i'll use the term "bonus" lightly

Save your soul, it's all a test,

Save your soul, little sister

Save your soul, dear little brother.

You need hope, says the preacher,

Prophets are telling us

We're near the end

But I am telling you

that it's all pretend.

It's so cool to be uncool,

it's so right to be unright.

It's so good to look so bad,

isn't this the best thing you ever had.

I kinda like it. But then again I'm still on the fence when it comes to this whole release. I still feel like it's a lackluster excuse of a career spanning hits compilation. I get that it is the final release for WB's & Madonna...but come on already. Give something to the fans who have been there since the very start. But that's just my opinion. Yeah Celebration is alright(remixes are better), Revolver is good(it has potential), & It's So Cool...well it is what it is. I just think the fans who have waited forever for a box-set should have got something better than this release. But whatever, now that WB's & Madonna are done, there will be 100 more hits & remix cd's released in the years to come. lol

It's still miles away better than Mother And Father both lyrically and sonically. Madonna has been writing like this for ages so I'm surprised by the rage. For every Drowned World/Substitute For Love there's an I Love New York. This is definitely not her worst and since it's a bonus track we really can't complain.

Sorry to say that again but ex-Mrs Ritchie really needs a break and get her creativity sorted. I know the song is from the AL sessions and I totally get why it was forgotten in the first place.

But those dull lyrics with Oakenfold's dated production is just a mess. I listened to the song once when it first leaked, and again today. I didn't even finish that second attempt, the song is just bad :nocomment:
