this si the type of song that lady gaga will never make...... never, madonna does not watch,no magazines not commerical world that is why she gets inspired by other things
@gogetamusic We cannot say. Madonna recorded this album at 40 y.o., when she had been a star for 15 years and right after having her first child; Lady Gaga's 25, at that age Madonna was making tunes like "Everybody" and "Holiday". I don't think anyone at that time would have thought Madonna capable of doing things like this song, or the whole Ray of Light album for that matter.
dude, i dont know in what kind of fairytales you believe but its not "madonna capable of doing such songs".
there is a staff of people working in a record company that buy the rights on songs fitting the audience or just plainly copy them. then madonna (or whoever) is invited in a musicstudio to hum a few lines into a microphone and that is sold to you.
madonna has nothing to do with the music beside refusing songs that do not fit her taste.
@ichlieberave Not true. Madonna has writtens tons of her own music or co written, produced etc. She's not the kind to be invited to a studio to..hum a few lines to whatever someone chose. Check again
@ichlieberave First of all Madonna own her own record company, so she doesn't have anyone telling her what to do, she tells people what to do. Second, she writes most of her songs at her home with her guitar, then she hires the producer that she thinks suits best to musical project, she brings the demos to the studio and along with the producer they transform an acoustic demo into a dance track. Sometimes when she performs her dance songs live on tour she sings the acoustic version
@bonslywizard That was now for her new record MDNA, because she sold her record company to Warner Music. She founded her own company in 1990 and not only made her best records (Erotica, Bedtime Stories, Ray of Light, Music, American Life) under the freedom of her own company she also had in charge other artists signed to her company (Alanis Morissette, Prodigy, Deftones, Marilyn Manson). Then she sold her company to Warner and signed with Interescope, keeping her creative staff.

@NocturneSoul That's true. But she always had problems with promotion. All of her albums had potential to sold more. If she had in the past the marketing machine that we see around Lady Gaga... The public loves her, not the industry or the media. In fact, they try to destroy all the independent artists. That's what they did to Janet or Michael.
1 girl 5 gays is such a bad representation of the gay society as hole...just my option. i watched it once for about 5 minutes and i had to turn it off
@92FanMail i totallyy agree, however others shouldn't be watching a tv show with that title, thinking that it'll embody every gay person in the world lol.
@Zee96969696 She wrote or co-wrote most of the songs! And you're right, why aren't other M's albums like this? My guess she doesn't like to repeat herself, BUT this album is genius! She was in another dimension when she did this album! Lola was the inspiration for this album!
@Zee96969696 Madonna wrote them with William Orbit and Patrick Leonard, if you listen to Hard Candy of course it won't be as good as this, you should try Like A Prayer or Erotica...
@tibbius You know, I never noticed that until you mentioned it! The chorus of each song is nearly identical, not lyrically, but the melody...that's too funny! I still love Sky Fits Heaven, tho! ;-)
A wonderful beat! A strong tone! This is my favorite of her Ray Of Light album. Brilliant in its own simplicity! It reminds me of so much, and so many people! Why? I'm unsure... But I am sure that this song is amazing!
@leftyla He will be!!! Madonna confirmed his collaboration on her new album in a press conference this week at the Venice Film Festival. You can officially expect another masterpiece!! ;-)
@GeniusAmongTards: Just for the record, Music and Ray of Light went muti-platinum here in the US, with Music going to Number 1 and Ray of Light number 2. I find it amazing how people can criticize the US for our "dumbed down taste in music" when Madonna is freaking from the US!!!! Yes, a LOT of the music now sucks, but it sucks everywhere, not just here.
This is another level of music.....14 years old....but sounds like in 2030! This is the higher top of madonna's music, it's imposible to reach this nirvana again...!!!.
@unconventional36 I guess she doesn't think that deep today. In 1998, (during this album) she was trying to see what is behind. But today she's just living her life with very young boys. I never expected Madonna to be like today's Madonna. Hard Candy was an epic fail.
@unconventional36 maybe she gave up trying to make a deep analysis of life and afterlife and she began to focus only on this temporary life with simple techno and dance music, like in the song 'celebration'
I don't know why people call anything on this album "pop". The only real pop song was maybe Ray of Light. 90s electronic, a piece of art... whatever you'd like to call it, but calling it "pop" diminishes it imo.
Should have been a single amazing song...Madonna does'nt HAVE to do anything people want her to do...if people say she is not to do it she will DO it but only more..Madonna revels on the fact people "don't" GET her
Well,see "Celebration" video and you will able to tell me that it's better if she recreate something like THIS! Now she's voulgar!!
I dont like repetitions,Madonna never does,but I think it's time that she looks at her soul and understand what disaster she's doing,'cuz her latest albums are the worst! :)
Sky Fits Heaven is my favorite Non-single track on Ray of Light - very beautiful, deep and so touching song. I can't say "Ray of Light" is my favorite album by Madge but definitely is one of her best records. Trip-Hop/Electronica sound was very right choice
ARG! Its not techno. Get your electronic categories right people! Techno has a whole different rhythm and doesn't move in this tempo. That's like saying Stravinsky is "classical" just because his music is orchestral. Come on general public, educate yourself on this stuff!!!
Her best album hands down. She was transcending into the Bjork arena and it was a very good sound for her. Wish she had evolved in that direction. But alas, unlike Bjork, Madonna is not classically trained and had to rely on others to make this sound for her. I think that's why she didn't move further with this. She honestly doesn't know how to. Its a much more sophisticated sound than what you hear in pop. Its electronic composition.
This song is incredible in all regards,and it's from a landmark disc that showed she wasn't just a pop or dance music dolly. What really bugs me is that after she went into a more serious creative direction with this album,with each successive disc afterward,some critics and fans wanted her her to just go back to recording dance music without lyrical depth or chances taken,maybe because they just wanted to be entertained,which is okay for them,but some of us want a little more than just that.
@slivasiul That's what free will is all about. Somebody once said "All good art is entertaining, but not all entertainment is good art." This is good art, good entertainment, and you can dance to it. 3 for 3!
After the ''Music'' album in 2000, the Madonna we all knew who dominated the 80s & 90s was gone and she started to get caught up in the industry's mediocre radio style of music when she released ''American Life'' in 2003.
@PopCulture20 The majority of negative criticism directed at "American Life" that I've read are not so much accusing it of mediocrity, but are proclamations of boredom at Madonna's serious self-analytical themes regarding herself and the world. If anything she is looking for a balance to please both herself and her fans. For every experimental track like "Isaac," there's a "5 Minutes" to placate the "Fuck art! Let's dance!" crowd. And "Celebration," though not a huge hit, proves she's not passe.
@MrJamesrnolan I see nothing wrong with an artist addressing epidemics because I have lots of songs on my I-pod that tackle serious subjects, however, if you're going to make a moral-themed album, at least give your fans a good tune to backup the lyrics because most people listen to music for a catchy tune.
My favourite song from this album.

@slivasiul That's what free will is all about. Somebody once said "All good art is entertaining, but not all entertainment is good art." This is good art, good entertainment, and you can dance to it. 3 for 3!

After the ''Music'' album in 2000, the Madonna we all knew who dominated the 80s & 90s was gone and she started to get caught up in the industry's mediocre radio style of music when she released ''American Life'' in 2003.

@PopCulture20 The majority of negative criticism directed at "American Life" that I've read are not so much accusing it of mediocrity, but are proclamations of boredom at Madonna's serious self-analytical themes regarding herself and the world. If anything she is looking for a balance to please both herself and her fans. For every experimental track like "Isaac," there's a "5 Minutes" to placate the "Fuck art! Let's dance!" crowd. And "Celebration," though not a huge hit, proves she's not passe.

@MrJamesrnolan I see nothing wrong with an artist addressing epidemics because I have lots of songs on my I-pod that tackle serious subjects, however, if you're going to make a moral-themed album, at least give your fans a good tune to backup the lyrics because most people listen to music for a catchy tune.
