Paul Posted July 10 Posted July 10 This was my favourite song last Friday and its still my favourite. Still in awe of how it makes me feel. Quote
pithy Posted July 10 Posted July 10 Favourites are making themselves apparent and this is up there. Possibly the freshest and the most chilled out and cool thing she's done this side of the Music album, dare I say? Quote
Pieciolot Posted July 11 Posted July 11 Its definitely one of the standouts. Absolutely love it. I don't get the comparison to Justify my love though. Quote
MadFan Posted July 12 Posted July 12 This is one of 'em that I show people when I wanna introduce them to the album. Everybody think it's sexy as fuck. Quote
Priceless Posted July 13 Posted July 13 This track is definitely one of the highlights of the album. Love the pitched vocals and the vibe. I think it’s interesting that the lyrics in most places say that the first whispered line is “trust, like this“ but it sounds like she’s clearly saying “trust, kindness” when she’s shouting the lyrics at the NYC event.

Genevieve Vavance Posted July 14 Posted July 14 School is like the best song of this century so far, there I SAID IT Quote

Sanctuary1995 Posted July 17 Posted July 17 Just worked out for the first time in a month after sickness and School goes really well with exercises 🏋 Quote
Paul Posted July 18 Posted July 18 So what's the story with how this song came about? Lots of different song writers, and some of them all were thanking Sia for 'making it happen'??? What are all the connections here? Quote
peter Posted July 18 Posted July 18 Stuart spoke a little bit about it with Bob during the London Tik Tok event… I mean, it wouldn’t answer all of the questions, but he talked a little about how it developed from one form into the next. I didn’t know about the Sia connection, though, which is interesting, because the reliable DazedMadonna said that Sia was contacted sometime during the preparation for release (that is, after Warner was involved) about copyright information. So … that would imply she might have a song on the record somewhere — maybe one of the eight tracks that are unreleased? There was a rumor about Sia potentially collaborating, but maybe all those rumors stem back to the same source…? (And that’s kind of a long-recurring thing… maybe as far back as MDNA? Perhaps Madonna liked whatever Sia submitted, or maybe they even collaborated earlier, but it didn’t fit the vibe of a previous album or albums … maybe M always had it in the back of her mind for a potential re-visit later, when the time was right…?) Anyway, maybe it was just a connection — maybe Sia put a particular writer in touch with Stuart or Guy O or something. Quote

Anyway, maybe it was just a connection — maybe Sia put a particular writer in touch with Stuart or Guy O or something. Yeah, there were rumors during MDNA that Sia wrote a song for that project called "Trust." Never heard if it ended up being true, but Sia did post on Twitter in Sept. 2011 something about "What do you all want to hear on Madonna's next album?" I think "School" was more about Sia connecting the songwriters to Guy Oseary. https://news.madonnatribe.com/en/2026/meet-the-artists-school-is-in-session/ Quote

I live for it. It's good to see some confirmation that M has been in the studio with Sia before (I wonder if what they created is in the vaults?). Quote
