mnation09 Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 i absolutely adore this song and have done from day one.. there was some buzz surrounding it cos if that Japanese show featuring it as the theme song and then from the first listen for me i thought it was one the most beautiful songs she had ever written.. right up there with Intervention and X-static proccess, imo.. and then when that video was finally released all those months after the song.. i broke down in tears (just like jesus).. the 'too much of no sound' part is so abba like it is breathtaking. miles away is in the guinness book of records for breaking a record.. so ironic.
HolidayGuy Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Not a bad track at all- but I am surprised at how part of the verse has the same melody as that Posh Spice track. I mean, not that it's similar- it's exact. Does the track belong on Celebration? Likely not.
SkyHigh76 Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 CLEAN OUT YOUR EARS post of the day. The production is dull as dishwater. I think the production is brilliant...one of Timbaland's best productions.
SkyHigh76 Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 Best lyric in the song: "If you could see me the way you see yourself,I can't pretend to be someone else"
DIRTY PIG Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 the live video form South America is amazing especially when all the crowd get wired off it..
Flip The Switch Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 I only imagine this song in a slow way. I always think it was rushed up.
Snowball83 Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 One of my all time favourite Madonna tracks, never gets old.
Crystal Coffin Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 Will she perform HC tracks on upcoming tours?

HolidayGuy Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 Some of the verse and main chorus vocals may be a tad "lazy," except when she gets to "all my dreams they fade away..." And, the "so far away" vocals are very vintage Madonna.
Guest Danny86 Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 Does the track belong on Celebration? Likely not. It sooooooooo does. The 4 ballads together on CD2 sound fantastic!
5iVe Elements Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 I have loved this song ever since I first heard it. It is #4 in my Top 25 Most Played in iTunes.
Elysium Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 Loved the song instantly...classic Madonna vocals...especially love the echoey bits at the end...'so far awaaay, so far awaay, so far awaaay, so far awaaaay'
Apples388 Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 I'd love her to do a piano version like this one. Just her and those two piano boys and her wearing all black or something. Go against the grain and do something different. As in, she normally does guitar led acoustic segments in her shows - I'd love her to do some piano ones now..
SkyHigh76 Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 I only imagine this song in a slow way. I always think it was rushed up. There's a rumor that this song was originally a haunting piano ballad,but Timbaland added a cool beat and it became uptempo.Not sure if that's true,but I could easily see it being a sad ballad.
SkyHigh76 Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 especially love the echoey bits at the end...'so far awaaay, so far awaay, so far awaaay, so far awaaaay' I love that part! I like how that line is repeated over and over as the music quiets down.You think the song is finally over and then BOOM! Timbaland drops a new beat and the song continues a little longer.
