Of all the "Gotham Sound' demos this song--an interesting meld of pop, rock, dance and new wave--is the one that seems most consistent with the songs from the eventual eponymous debut album. A very winning track. And the lyric, with it's self-preservation ethic, is "very Madonna." She's always about empowerment. What a delight to find this here. YouTube really is changing the way we live!
I really love Madonna's early rock/New Wave stuff ... I sincerely hope, before this new contract of hers is done in ten years from now, that we get at least one rock album from her ... after all, she's the queen of reinvention, right? I can see it happening, with all this onstage guitar she's doing the past decade ... anyone else hopeful for this musical development from Her Madgesty? Rock out, Maddy!!!
@whiteglenn69 she could've been an epic rocker! I'd rather see her do rock and acoustic then the dance... although she basically defined a decade of music. ... I just want rock, Madge!
@whiteglenn69 i wud kill for Madonna to do an all rock album love wen she gets on the guitar at her concerts as a side note do bits of this song sound a bit like David Bowies Ashes to Ashes to anyone else???
I absolutely adore this track. This should have been released! I think the lyrics are so inspirational and I really feel what she is saying when i listen to it. So powerful, makes me emotional +
little more power..little new mix and i know many want this single after that. Madonna top10 single!! i'm very sad becourse new collection isin't any Emmys song. Does Madonna want forget this memory..but that's wrong for many fans. But Madonna is bitch and do what she wants:) dosen't care what fans want... she have inaf money now.
madonna ciccone > madonna
stefani germanotta > lady gaga

I've never heard her early tracks. Amazing! I think this song is so life-telling for her, makes me sad.

I dunno, but the chorus of the song reminds me somehow of her song 'Hung up', maybe she drew some inspiration from this track.
MADONNA ROCKS!!!
