“Dark Ballet” thread


Recommended Posts

From people’s descriptions, it sounds like this could be one of my favorite Madonna singles of all time.

Are her vocals in the first half pure?

Is this closer to a ballad or a dance song?  Or is it more in the Mer Girl, Paradise, Isaac camp?

Correction, according to iTunes, although even they seem unclear about the last two lines!

I will not do most of the things that I have said
I will never renounce my faith in my sweet lord
He has chosen me to fight against the English
I am not a fighter, I don't do that cause I'm a lady
God is on my side and I'll be fine
I am not afraid 'cause I have faith in him
You can cut my hair and throw me in a jail cell
Say that I'm a witch and burn me at the stake
It's all a big mistake
To ... and doubt him is a sin
I won't give in

Is the video for the song available as well? Are we getting the video today as well?

No, the first part is autotuned but not like Future or the Medellín chorus. 

Meanwhile, the speech is her pure voice.

It's already for sale on iTunes in Australia, so it's released gradually over the world every timezone. It'll probably impact on Vevo and Youtube tomorrow yeah!

I don't think it's offcially a single even if it does have a video.....it looks like M isn't in the video. 

I think the next offcial single will be the video with the queens which will be released in conjunction with Pride later this month.

As for the song....hmmmm its bizarre.

The song is extremely strong for me... Very strange...  I wouldn't put in a playlist but listening to it after Medellin and before Future, I find it deeply moving ! Such melancholy

Forget about a more commercial sounding single.

I think the album will offer more straight up pop/dance tunes....and I do think the drag queen video will be one of these moments.

I think Dark Ballet is a one off an example of her and Mirwais most experimental work.
