    In my opinion, this track along the Ray Of Light album is Madonna at her finest. Haunting, sublime.

    This song was a sensation. I lived in the East Village NYC when this album was released and it was literally playing everywhere. I remember a 20+ minute dj mix of this in the basement of the underground electronic night club, Save The Robots, which had never played another pop song that I can remember. Today's pop music is all derivative of the songs on this album, which combined emotional vulnerability and real electronic music. A true classic.

    This song is really special. If the Beatles had happened in the 90s instead of the 60s, this would've been one of their songs, and one of their signature songs too. That's how incredible this track is.

      It was mainly produced by Madonna, she did the biggest job in producing and writing, he did help her make the album what it is but he wasnt the main producer of it. But of course...everybody forgets that Madonna is ALSO a producer of her music not only writer (which also people forgets).

    • @muzikxpress
      @muzikxpress  6 років тому +3

      So what's your source that it is mainly produced by Madonna? As far as my info goes, it is mainly produced by William Orbit, with help/input of Madonna. I don't see any info online that it was mainly produced by Madonna. As far as I know, she doesn't even has her own recording studio. Correct me if I'm wrong, but all info I can find is that William was the main producer of the album ;-)

      Ah ok, well I did a lot of research and I follow both the careers of Madonna and William Orbit, I have over 80 Madonna CDs and records in my collection and tbh I have never ever seen any footage of her actually producing (as in using the technical equipment in the studio/mixing) in the studio.

    I think Frozen is her best song ever, like a prayer is of course also classic but still prefer Frozen. Liked it very much, never understood why a judge here in belgium said it was plagiarism. If i heard both i was like, ok if they is plagiarism they should ban 70% of popsongs.. Glad it was undone this ridiculous decision.
