Guest eroticerotic Posted June 16, 2019 Posted June 16, 2019 I played it last night to a bunch of friends, and this one seemed to resonate the most with people in a party/pregame atmosphere. so many layers. I find it sublime
Foxcatcher Posted June 16, 2019 Posted June 16, 2019 do you have parts with [Dino D'Santiago speaking]? [Verse 1] Sometimes I despair Sometimes I have hope Sometimes I don't know Sometimes I feel pushed [Drop] Bella, ciao [Dino D'Santiago speaking] [?] [Verse 2] Have you ever been to the land where you can find yourself? Have you ever been to a place where you can rest yourself? All the noise just disappears, rain will wash away the sadness All our lives we work in vain, for a little touch of grace [Verse 3] Sometimes I despair Sometimes I have hope Sometimes I don't know Sometimes I feel happy [Drop] Bella, ciao [Dino D'Santiago speaking] [?] [Bridge] Sometimes I feel happy [Drop] Bella, ciao [Dino D'Santiago speaking] [?] [Verse 4] Have you ever been to the land where you can find yourself? Have you ever been to a place where you can rest yourself? All the noise just disappears, rain will wash away the sadness All our lives we work in vain, for a little touch of grace [Outro] Bella, ciao
rocknrolla Posted June 16, 2019 Posted June 16, 2019 I was thinking a while back, that while she has lots of euphoric songs, she doesn't have a happy to be alive song. And here is this, she literally says, sometimes I am happy!
Tinpi Posted June 16, 2019 Posted June 16, 2019 This song is so amazing !! Right now, Ma favorite from the Album !!
tasteinmen Posted June 16, 2019 Posted June 16, 2019 I wasn't too sure when I first heard this, but it really is great, it could have easily been on the main album.

acko Posted June 17, 2019 Posted June 17, 2019 In a perfect world this would haven a summer jam on MTV Europe back in the day.

frzndrwnwrld Posted June 18, 2019 Posted June 18, 2019 I surprised how people feel it should be on the regular album. I feel like she's barely on this song. It's basically an interlude. Yes, the beat is good but I'm ok with this being a bonus track.

The strength of the track is the atmosphere it creates, the dance breaks, just enough words to paint the landscape we escape into through it...sometimes just allowing the music itself to breath is right. And it's so right for this song. When heard as the last thing closing out the entire musical journey that is Madame X, it just...works. Beautifully. Definitely album worthy.

I like Dino D'Santiago's voice, I love Madonna's melancholy, pitched spoken-word vocals and I especially like how it manages to feel dreamy, despite having such a punchy beat. I feel like this song could have a really wide audience, it's very appealing.
Flip The Switch Posted June 19, 2019 Posted June 19, 2019 A pure gem. Reminds me of those ambient albums of 1999. Only Madonna. This should’ve been on the album right after God Control.

Plus, it loses streaming points for the album

She sets the tone of the song from the very beginning as she introduces it.
VogueMusic Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Wait...is it Dino D'Santiago or Kimi Djabaté? I thought it was Kimi singing?

Iconic Fetus Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 I’ve been holding to listen to the three bonus tracks until I have the deluxe album which amazon is going to deliver in 4 weeks, but I’m so excited reading about how you all seem to love this.
LVX Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 This one falls flat for me. Madonna feels more like a featured artist.
