runa Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I remember, when ROL came out, I was not fond of Drowned World/Substitute for love. It took me 1-2 years to discover how this song is just beyond amazing. This is a pure gem. Lyrics, melody, voice, perfection. And I think her rendition in Confession Tours is awesome. She's flawless. Give some love to DWSFL ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Why they didn't include it on the Confessions tour CD is beyond me, I downloaded it and added it in anyway. Perfection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madonnasuperfan01 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 At the moment i saw the title of the topic i knew it was from that 2006 performance DW/SFL is an amazing gem, amazing opening track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mensch Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I knew this was a SFL reference BUT I thought it had something more to do with Art for Freedom. Anyway, this song is one of the best things she's ever come out with. The video. The performances. Everything. The fact that it opens Ray of Light.

Larkspur Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 The first time I heard this song was one of those moments that as a Madonna fan stand out. I was blown away on first listen. I had been wanting Madonna to see fame for what it is and what it's not especially after the backlash she went through and I thought this is how you come out of it. I think now there's still a part of Madonna that clings to fame but she is more aware of it now and it doesn't control her every move. It takes a backseat to her children now who accept her for her. I feel that is what the ending of the video shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick00 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 ONe of her better singles, and really an original electronic pop song. I did not see DWT Live, but it was awesome that she opened the show with the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 PERFECT album opener GORGEOUS production FLAWLESS lyrics BEAUTIFUL vocals It's a masterpiece, really. I love the subdued intro, the mellow beat, the changeover from electronic to accoustic guitar at the second chorus, and of course the bridge is just spectacular. And the way it all winds down to that soothing, heartfelt ending. Bravo, Madonna! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Django Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I was never very fond of this song. I knew it was a great song and I liked it, but for me it wasn't one of her best songs. Now I feel that I like it more than before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5iVe Elements Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Love this song when i still wasnt a fan. Totally underrated and should've been on Celebration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elijah Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I think its probably her best song. Mature sound, strong vocals, amazing message and one of her best videos. Just watching the video and listening to the song you can not help but feel she was at her most honest, but also you can feel her strength. When the single came out I thought she was at her peak creatively... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mangapop Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Usually I skip this song, but when I am listening to it I always think how amazing it is. I like the male voice in the beginning. The DWT opening was her bravest. No special effects, no choreography, just Madonna, her voice and emotions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadFan Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 The last "should I wait for you" is one of the most sublime Madonna vocals ever. God. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
