rocknrolla Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Its the perfect balance, and that she has the audacity just to sing those few lines, but they are so vital. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknrolla Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I thought the non English part was a sample perhaps, but he was actually in the studio with Madonna, and he sang words that she told him to. She didn't even choose the words by the way they sounded, that is just how it worked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

humanracin Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 This is still one of the best Madame X songs for me, its a crime that it's just a bonus track. I've removed Faz and Loca from my playlist as they are inferior to the 3 bonus tracks. Even Crave is one I skip, the bass is too loud in the mix and the production isn't as good on this as the rest of the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknrolla Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 This should have at least been on the deluxe version, not on some obscure box set where very few people will hear it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extreme Occident and Looking For Mercy should have been on the regular edition. Ciao Bella should have been on the deluxe edition. If I hadn't imported the super deluxe, I would have never heard it! Are the bonus tracks still not on digital and streaming services? What the heck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Quote "Bella ciao" ("Goodbye beautiful") is an Italian folk song that was adopted as an anthem of the anti-fascist resistance. It was used by the Italian partisans between 1943 and 1945 during the Italian Resistance, or the resistance of Italian partisans against the Nazi German forces occupying Italy, and during the Italian Civil War, or the Italian partisan struggle against the fascist Italian Social Republic and its Nazi German allies. "Bella ciao" is used worldwide as an anti-fascist hymn of freedom and resistance. The song has much older origins though in the hardships of the mondina women, the paddy field workers in the late 19th century who sang it as a protest against harsh working conditions in the paddy fields in North Italy.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bella_ciao Is Madonna's Bella Ciao a throwback to this resistance anthem? Her family is Italian so she probably knows the song since ever and the current political state of the world (USA) reminds the fascism of the past, so it kinda makes sense. Agree?

Kurt420 Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Have finally started coming around to this song this week. I was so focused on the album for so long that I never really got around to fully digesting the bonus tracks. Still in the middle on the other two but really starting to like Ciao Bella. Now need to dive into all the remixes for MX songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andra Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I can't really see this track as part of MX, every time i listen to it i get.. New York City 1998-2000 Sex and the City vibes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah. It's Killers, Bitch I'm Loca and BTUTTB that needed to be the leftovers bonus. Funana and Ciao Bella deserved to be part of the standard edition; 01. God Control 02. Dark Ballet 03. Future 04. Batuka 05. Medellín 06. Come Alive 07. Ciao Bella 08. Crazy 09. Funana 10. Faz Gostoso 12. Extreme Occident 13. I Rise 14. I Don't Search I Find 15.
