Damn!! Madonna should release a very expanded edition of Ray of Light along with all the demos and lost tracks. The real fans of this album would buy this. 😩😩😩❤️
Being an Indian, it makes me very proud that our music has influenced the Queen of Pop and the greatest female entertainer of the world. It all started with Erotica (remember the backing vocalist's part which was also featured in The Beast Withgin in RIT and Sitar and Tabla parts?). Then carried on to Ray of Light(Frozen, Shanti Ashtangi, SKin) album then Cyber Raga, The beast within and Hollywood in RIT, I'm a sinner (MDNA tour), etc. Apparently Indian music has definitely caught her attention. Still she never bothered doing a single show in India which is very surprising. Does she not know that she has a massive fan base there?
Munawar Shah the vocal in Erotica and used in The Beast Within is by a Lebanese singer Fairouz, the song is called El Yom Ollika,it is arabic but is a christian song.
@@ColinsCity You're right there. I heard the full version once. Somebody had told me she was Iranian or from somewhere like that. But I didn't know that it was a christian song. Even though I'm a muslim, I don't understand a single word in Arabic (well just a few)
Munawar Shah the bible in Lebanon is written in Arabic haha but also the producer of the song added Fayrouz vocal without getting approval and there was a law suit because of this.
I felt that too. But it was good to hear the different demo versions of all these gems. I also loved how raw and real she sounded in these demos. Loved her voice in hung up demo as well
Sorry, but Homogenic came out in September of 1997. This Flirtation Dance demo is dated June of 1997. Nice try, though. Madonna has no interest in being Bjork lol
@@RockinDaBoombox @Trent Totally I was talking about Ray of Light as a whole. Sorry but, Electronica, strings, spiritual? Bjork did it first. This demo sounds dull before Orbit steps in. The finished version is the main subject here and you defending her through this demo is irrelevant. Nice try tho. Madonna has no interest in being Marilyn Monroe and ABBA either did you know that?
I think I was 4 when this album was released but oh my God how I have worshipped this woman since I was old enough to appreciate her. This is utterly beautiful, experimental and transcendent. No one but my Queen could have rendered a demo this fascinating and a new album awaits us. I love you Madonna. I wish I was a tenth of the woman you are.
The instrumental sounds a bit like SALOME by BUNBURY. The song was released in 1996 and that album also mixed "indian" music with electronic. Ray of Light continues to be my favourite Madonna album and SKIN is probably my fave alongside Ray of light and Frozen.
Wow, in all honesty, as entrancing as the album version is, I think I love this even more. It's rawer, darker. My favourite element here is the synth playing fifths during the chorus, it sounds heart-wrenching somehow. Like some sort of drawn out, electric sitar lament from another dimension. Kind of an obscure gamer reference here, but it reminds me of the soundtrack to the original Unreal, more specifically the track Dusk Horizon that plays when you step out of the crashed prison vessel. I played that game as a child and the soundtrack is pretty much etched into my soul at this point; probably why this evokes so much for me. The '90s were such a brilliant decade for electronic music. Yet another reason I wish I were born a decade or two earlier.

Her demos are better than her past few (post 50) records. We would love to see her try a rock direction and a record in French and Italian in honor of both sides of her family because Europe is her audience over the U.S. with the Cheesepuff-in-Chief at this point. The question is, can her voice handle anything without vocoder and autotune anymore?
Both: Leonard wrote the music, Ciccone the melody & lyrics, Orbit added final production. You can hear Leonard's original instrumental track live here: ua-cam.com/video/QfZ_fatEAFQ/v-deo.html
@@diegosuarez5620 clearly DeVries. it has a similar Drum beat to "Little Star" Bless William Orbit he's truly Madonna's best Collaborator along with Patrick Leonard it's a shame Madonna was too busy being everything but a Music Artist when she chose to work with Orbit again, now that the bitch is finally focused we get Mirwais probably my least favorite producer, Love the American Life concept but it lacks serious Melody heaven which Orbit always has.
Madonna has always had the BEST producers. She would not have been able to do it all by herself, still talented, but songs Like A Virgin and her early hits weren't even written by her.

Also the Indian percussions in Extreme Occident

This album had waaaay more Arabic and Persian infuences, it even said so in the press release. Only Shanti was Indian and it's a pretty poor track!!
Her vocals at the end are very "Erotica". It's like Dita singing on Orbit's production, amazing !
Funny. I believe this is Patrick Leonard’s production.
there's just something about this version that is so soothing and enigmatic it makes me feel some kind of way i can't explain
Her vocal approach is much more Bjork-esque here. I definitely prefer the final version, but wonderful to hear this in its original iteration.
Bjork's Homogenic is definitely one of the inspiration on Ray of Light.

I was also 4!! Well, actually, the album came out 2 months before turning 4 lol
Madonna's new album is comming!
charlieREZA
Behold, She is coming soon
I really like the sound of this song, definitely fits with the album and era
This is awesome! Skin is the fist song that got me into her music still think is one of her best

It’s actually sampled from a Nigerian song by Olatunji called, Baba Jinde (Flirtation Dance). That’s where the demo title comes from.
Yes...it was titled "Flirtation dance" before she changed it to "Skin"💜💚
That’s because the singing you hear in the background is from a song called, Baba Jinde (Flirtation Dance). ❤️💙🥰😍
Holy shit this is AMAZING!!!
it’s very atmospheric !
you're saving not the day, but the entire 2019!!

Astonishing 🤍 loved that era!
Esta canción provoca algo en mi que despierta mi lado esoterico
Yo si me di me toque de mota con esta rola jajaj
My wig is SNATCHED
where ur wig at henny?
Oh my God!!! 😮😍💥
1:08 I get chills 🥰
Love this, AND ON MY BIRTHDAY.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME OMG
WHY DOES THE PHOTO LOOK LIKE A FACEAPP EDIT LMFAOIJWIHFNCGBU

what's up with her teeth?
This is an actual outtake of the original photo shoot.
EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT
I love this! I just got into ray of light and perfect for spring time tunes.
Incredible thanks so much!!!
MADONNA WILLL
ALWAYS BE AN INSPIRATION TO EVERY RACE
Feels right for today
Omg i love it
thank u so much
Part of the rhythmic base seems very similar to what it was Cyber Raga before. Do you have that perception too??
Totally different producers.
Long Live the Queen
Wow!)))Fantastic!))))
~Great~Spirit~Madonna~Is~
The thumbnail is blasphemous. lol. WOW this is such an amazing recording. I coincidentally just uplaoded a cover of Skin.
Cool 😎 ♡
Wow!!!
Masterpice
reminds me of bjork vocally
Yes
please share the other mantra demos!!
MADAME ❌IS NUMBER ONE 2019
this version is really different and it remember erotica ,it's very very cool ¡¡¡
IT'S A HOLIDAY!!!
This version is so much better
This demo was okay. But I like the original one.
Powerful ❤️❤️❤️ Queen Of Pop Queen Of Music Queen Of Fucking Everything
Are the other demos leaking as well?
waiting if someone will share!
Like "Mer Girl" mashed with "Skin," haunting.
This demo is actually good. Mer Girl is boring. Dark lyrics and a dark beat does not equate good. She has a great vocal, I will give it that.
Pretty bland. I'm glad she kept working on it, eventually turning it into one of the album's very best tracks!
прикольно
Does anyone know what that sample is from in the beginning?
Baba Jinde (Flirtation Dance), by Olatunji from 1959.
Download link please
Seriously, sounds like Bedtime Stories 2.
It’s your smile / not stupid / just misunderstood
It’s amazing she sounds like Bjork in some parts ❤️❤️❤️
Bjork wishes 😂
Who did edit that smile :)
Because you’re smiling at me ! Duh !
Oh .
… Can I smile at you , too ?
Bummer .
Frozen Demo wav please
Me recuerda la música de Bjork
s2
All I want is to touch your skin, hold you and kiss you all over forever my love!!!❤❤❤
Kiss kiss kiss touch touch touch

This is Patrick Leonard's Production? Or Orbit?
Pat Leonard's
@@MadonnaRandD I research a little more. This demo is a coProduction of Marius DeVries.
@@diegosuarez5620 Not surprising since this demo sounds so Bjork-y
Both: Leonard wrote the music, Ciccone the melody & lyrics, Orbit added final production. You can hear Leonard's original instrumental track live here: ua-cam.com/video/QfZ_fatEAFQ/v-deo.html

Why do you think they are stupid ?
is it real? it sound like a mash up

Not stupid
Just misunderstood

This sounds really naff
This is not her
Those teeth are terrifying!
LOL
I really don’t like Indian music so I’m not a huge fan of these types of songs she makes
The original sounds 100 times better.. this sounds messy
UA-cam addict because it's a demo
It’s a demo hun 🙄
@@edm4321 ok guys understood :)
Not only is it an unfinished demo, it IS the original. You mean "finished" or "published" not "original".
@@valentinomiller6251 rolls eyes and switches page.......
Yes
