  • this use to be Boy george's video... look "to be reborn" with boy george

  • Thank you so much for this great song, I LOVE these lyrics so much.

    As a guy this surley makes me think and wander through my own past.

    Thank you for guiding me with this song.

    Love you Madonna, stay with us for all time.

  • this video was a big disappointment. She is soooo narcissistic!!!!

  • All my hole life is influenced by Madonna...i can't stop loving you Madonna!!!

  • @winston1319 it's spelled "whole" not "hole". duh.

  • This is such a competorary song :about a little girl remembering her past at a Norwood Elementary school where life was so much easier and innocent! It was the place we ran to and sometimes what appears to be real isnt reality at all!

    God bless you Modonna for singing the words but I will always have the memories of it forever!

  • The first time she sang this, it was to a 5-year-old boy named Jesus whom she met in a park! :)

  • @vccstudents uhm.... really? where did u get that from?

  • @dioioego It's a joke! Her current boyfriend was 5 years old when she recorded this song! His name is Jesus!

  • "The best things in life are always free..." so true...

  • yuck.

  • THIS IS FROM 1992, June 1992 to be EXACT(in footage and release[June 29, 1992]! THE SONG WASN'T EVEN WRITTEN & demoed UNTIL MARCH 1992 and barely finished recording at the very end of May 1992! Considering I was a toddler during this song's popularity in the summer-early fall of 1992, I doubt it was 1991 as I was born in early January that year and said to be obsessed with this song at 19 months. Please change it in order to not confuse anyone.

  • ;0)

  • I'm only 19 years old but this song srsly brings back good childhood memories...it's the concept of the song, the melody, her voice... Every time I listen to this song, there's always a lump in my throat. I just wanna cry because I wish I was younger again. Life was so much more easier...

  • @GEORGIANATOR123 I WAS IN THE MOVIE AS A FILL-IN WHICH MAKES THIS HAVE A PLACE IN MY HEART.

  • @jenniferesnyder cool ...did u get to see her?

    

  • This song came out when I was in a dark part of my life...And yea almost 20 years later this song makes me feel safe.

  • this is one of my favorite songs by her ever. love it.

  • This is one of my favorite Madonna songs. Love the song and the movie!!

  • why is this one slowed down a bit.....

  • Fyi the video whether or not the video concep was stolen from another "queen" its really up to the director of the video how the concep goes. Not up to Madonna. Gees!

  • This song is so sad. It makes me think of my grandma who died 3 years ago. The bad thing is when she says life is short it makes me think being a kid will fly by.

  • Love this song but it has always baffles me how the QUEEN of multiple personas in each video would choose to completely rip-off a BOY GEORGE video concept, from beginning to end. This same video was done in a song by BOY GEORGE called To Be Reborn-Check the video for yourself!!!! I'm SHOCKED!!! Madonna would steal from another QUEEN, or did she?

  • @646TB

    Aside from the fact that Madonna probably had very little input into this particular video... the video itself went very well thematically with the movie the song was produced for.

  • This song makes me think of the time I used to go to my families summer home upstate NY

  • Its funny how any song from the 90's can bring back memories even if you never heard it before. I guess the 90's had a reminiscent sound to all their songs

  • This song is very powerful. All it takes is a spark and you're left with a brush fire of vivid memories and inconsolable weeping that will torment and heal your soul at the same time. Thank you Madonna for being able to evoke such feelings.

  • This song expresses alot of memories for all of us in our days of wonderful youth, when we were so full of wonderful visions and dreams of what we wanted to grow into as we would get older. Many of us reached our goals and some of us experienced troubles along the way. But yet we got up and dusted ourselves off and started all over again hoping that we could still be in search of our dreams no matter how old we would be.Our childhood dreams will always remain with us no matter how old we are

  • Love it

  • Good song.

  • Madoona thanks for the memories!!!

  • Omg this song has always made me cry. Even when I was 5 years old, I remember crying to this song because it just sounded so powerful and now I'm almost 23 and it still makes me cry. Man...the stuff she says in this song applies to so many different things about people.

  • i love this song, it made me cry when i saw A League Of Their Own, i still love that movie as well. This song still makes me sad, but, having grown up a bit, I'm 24 now, and listening to this, made me realize, that I almost let go of the past, I almost let life come between a childhood friend and me. For 10 years I looked back in my childhood with regret, and now! Now, my childhood friend and I are getting married, and I couldnt be more happy.

  • I miss my childhood best friend. But I will ALWAYS have our childhood memories. So sweet. How we used to dress up the cat and have singing contests. It's sad how time is allowed to come between two friends.....and one lets all of those memories slip away. I'd give anything to have kept that friendship....through thick and thin. Yet, it slipped away due to "life happening," according to her. Sad though. I tried hard to keep it alive for a long time. I miss hearing from her.

  • I miss the past

  • Love this song and video....

  • This was my moms I'm sad song that I was forced 2p listening 2 growing up lol

  • woah crap never relized i would get so many hits for just stating facts lol well i cant fight the people. however everything i posted on here is true....im still grateful for the effect it had on me then

  • wishing of something that never revealed

  • Preciosa cancion, como la mayoria de las baladas de Madonna, auqnue me pone un poco triste, pues me hace recordar cuando mamá murió...

  • The movie league of their own come out in July of 1992

  • makes me cry! xxxxx

  • Why do people respect madonna doing this but then again she "forces" all the shit to block an a League of their Own. That is what the song is meant for. Madonna can kiss Britneys ass now.

  • This is false . It was not 1991, more like 93 not 91. Get your damn facts straight, If you really cared before you would have thought about that.

  • @Chumpster1981 it was actually 1992

  • I DEDICATE THIS SONG TO SIX FLAGS ASTROWORLD JUNE 1968-Oct. 30th.2005

  • i remember that i love to go outside and play out door and my mother be out with me

    and wach me play on the swing and slid's and what i like about this record since 1991 when i live at east 5th street and wish that my mother and father can see me now cuz this song just blow me away and my childhood is that me and my brother use to ride a bike together and i miss my mother and brother and still i wanna go back to were we belong and be a family again

  • @lydiamendez21 This isn't from 1991, the poster of this video is ignorant in regards to this and quite lazy. I NEVER make the mistake of uploading videos with incorrect dates. Dates do matter, especially when important memories like yours are involved. Madonna barely demoed this in March 1992, recorded it during May 1992 and finished on Memorial Day, May 25, 1992. She recorded & released(only Rescue Me) nothing in 1991. Late 91 was spent making Erotica demos. Only the movie scenes are from 1991.

  • win

  • to be reborn BOY GEORGE!

  • That was beautiful (=^ ]

  • MADONNA, I LOVE YOU!  All your music is wonderful from your dance hits to your ballads like this one. Growing up with you music is has left an impression on my heart and soul. I know that now some kids are growing up with Lady Gaga, but not even Lady Gaga could ever take your place! You are the first! The one and only Madonna! The Queen of pop rules! Long live Madonna!

  • @bellaimages I am with you and I am 16 yrs old :)

  • @bellaimages I love you.

  • @bellaimages Madonna is a true artist, a serious artist. Lady Gaga is just silly entertainment for stupid clueless kids. She's superficial and plastic. Madonna is the real deal.

  • I LOVE YOU MADONNA ERES LA MEJOR DEBERIAS HACER UN MTV UNPLUGGED DO IT

  • Such a lovely song. Even if Madonna's voice is not technically the greatest, she most definitely knows how to use it to its full advantage.

  • Everytime i hear this song it makes me reminisce about me and my older sister that died when i was 16 and it makes me cry :'(

  • Well I dont know how life is in U.S.A. But I rekon it will suck ass. Ex girlfriends are a pain in the heart and the ass, I am raising a son alone now as 1 of them is a loser.

    God is with me and as soon as u realize that things will turn but remember, God ONLY helps those who help Themselves. Peace.

  • @bigGaza1 I'll admit @ times I do feel like that loser one despite the small impact and compliments I've gotten with my small biz FB page. damn limbo sux maybe he has me there for making that joke about him not having time to take of his dandruf being it's snowing so much and he's busy watching season 15 or whatever of Knots Landing and the season primere of Golden Girls he isn't ready for rose's for St. Ola stories god might make her live to be 200 he's not ready for oh god and smack head

  • @bigGaza1 when ya talk about looser another son or ex? ya definately right about Ex gf's there one does make me want to rip her head off being she nearly got me killed more then once it could be an inspirtation for a chuck norris joke cats have 9 Chuck Norris has 9 he don't need . don't hate him sometimes I feel he hurt me and screwed me with those he took away which made me feel fucked up @ times

  • I was born to "live to tell"... Say what u like... Madonna knows how to "produce" a good song to keep us all happy. This is beautiful.

  • I love this song sooo much!

    long live the queenn

  • I love this song. It's so sweet. Whoever thumbed it down has no feelings.

  • Now...the video has 1 thumb down...that's not fair!

  • i had to look this song up cuz it was sad at the end of that movie "A League of Their Own"

  • I so wanted to bone her when she was this hot and this young...She is SEX! :)

  • This song reminds me of how fast life goes by....and how there are times we wish we could have held on to longer.

  • Madonna fans =18y and above

    gaga fans = alot of a stupid babies they know nothing about music history not just about madonna so let them bark like a little stupid dogs !!

  • @thamer23riy hey now!!!! im 14 now cant stand gaga my band instructor is forcing my to play a solo for pokerface hate him so much if i didnt love my instrument i would quit now i love madonna FWmac cranberries mamas and the papas prince ect

  • @thamer23riy Amen to that! In a couple of months people will be saying GaGa who? Like all the other previous nobodies. She will never be the icon Madonna was, and is. At least Madonna's wardrobe was realistic for her tfemale fans. As well as some men (lol).

  • you can look under almost letter in the alphabet and find a hit from madonna, that really shows how much shes achieved as an artist

  • @imdantheman89 totally I would so have to go through the list which one begins with A. that would so make a good VH1 classic video show Madonna A to Z where they have a Madonnathon where they show all her videos for 2 hours or so

  • This used to be.......#1 song on the day I was born! :D

  • "if you were woofey"

  • cwm531

    I love that film, too.

    And T.Hanks is the best :)

  • asboy george said "this used to be my video" see boy george to be reborn same director

  • Why does this video have 0 thumbs down? Because either the video or the movie is amazing...

  • @Yuriclay u made some troll with no life put thumbs down :(

  • the best things in life are always.. freeee.  wishing you were here with me. this part of the song always makes my eyes fill up .

  • i love all her songs, they make me cry..... omg!!!

  • The best song of Madonna

    

  • One of my all time favorites that she sings.. it's sad and full of deep inspiration. She's definitely going down in history as the biggest female icon in the musical arts.. Funny cause she's still going strong!

  • este solía ser mi campo de de sufrimiento... yo y mi descocertada alma.., como aludes Madonna a mi vida , me identifico con esta preciosa canción...

  • este solía ser mi campo de de sufrimiento... yo y mi descocertada alma.., como alues Madonna a mi vida , me identifico con esta preciosa canción...

  • Such a copy of the Boy George video To Be Reborn.

    ya all can join me

  • @odog65 if we all joined you wouldnt it be the same as bringing the 2000's to the 1990/80's? In affect ruining those 20 years you cherish so much?

  • @superman33446 true. 2000's is a whole other time of it's own. and besides those 20 years are awesome I love 80's/90's madonna way better and which one between the 80's or 90's I love best it just depends on mood but when it comes to those 2 decades she definately owns it

  • It was a wonderful movie, and I used to play this song on the juke box at the pizza parlor especially when there was a junior baseball team there celebrating. The place would always grow quiet during this song. These moments are not meant to last. Cherish the moments! 

  • This used to be my playground (used to be)

    This used to be my childhood dream

    This used to be the place I ran to

    The best things in life are always free

  • ...and why do they always say don't look back keep your head held high

    don't ask them why because life is short...

  • Songs great but she's a bitch and doesn't put the "real" meaning into the song like the women that played the female games. I love her but what a bitch. ..,this song is got a league of their own and she made it so it wasn't. And well, you see what happened. And I'm 29 now! Fuck you you 13 Yr olds. Don't know shit

  • @Chumpster1981 HEY u watch ur mouth u hear me? i promise u this u are an avrage 29 to 30 year old who is woundering where the timme went and wish i didnt screw up so much... ur prob have a low self esteam so you feel u need to crap on a very real story i may be young but also understand so much more than what you give me credit for so eat your words!!!

  • I miss the feeling, thinking back in the day, how i wish i could go back, life goes so fast, its depressing

  • i havent got ball players i got girls ha love this film.

  • I can't help crying every time I hear this song. Reminds me of when I was a young boy during wonderful times in the 50's and 60's. Now life sucks.

  • WOW, This was the first song I ever learned. When I was in preschool... I have spent at least 8 years trying to find this song... Wow, I can't believe I finally found it, and just as I remember it...

  • im 13 years old born nov of 1996 6 weeks early, 6 monthes later i contracted woopping caugh (typo) then got it again 2 monthes later i almost died both time. this my mama says that this song was the only thing that would get me to sleep and that it saved my life! thank u madonna!

  • @iceybloodspell Thank you so much for sharing. God bless you and congratulations on a second and third chance at life. You are an inspiration to us all.

  • @MikeMeldan Thanks im glad to be alive and i pray for those whom contract it today poor little babys.

  • @iceybloodspell the songs of madonna trully inspires!!!!

    and your one of them!!!

  • Just saw this movie ("A League Of Their Own") this afternoon...that movie and this song NEVER get old.

    ~LauraG.~

  • Beautiful... Simply Beautiful!!!

  • This ballad by Madonna is probably her most poignant, most beautiful. She's often noted for not being a brilliant singer, but you would never think it after hearing this. She's so heartfelt and so achingly full of despair. I cry everytime I REALLY listen to it. It's impossible not to be moved by the lyrics and music, and what a beautifully shot video! Thank you for this, Madonna.

  • @kalamaty As much as I love Madonna's fast songs, it's the ballads that move me the most. This, Crazy for You, and You Must Love Me, are probably her best songs and most touching. It's almost as if you can feel the pain that she is singing about yourself when you listen to them.

  • Are you crying? There's no crying. There's no crying in baseball!

  • @cwm531It's my party, and I cry if I want to!

  • @cwm531 im 27, i live in new york since i was 21, being in new york was my "childhood dream". i'm living the best of my live in this city........

  • I mis the 90's

  • this song is from one of my favorite sports movies! i don't really care for baseball, but i love a league of their own. and, this song is so pretty! reminds me of my lil sister...we don't get along anymore, cuz i'm in college (the smart one), and she wants to drop out of HS. we used to be really close; she was the one i could go to for advice, and vice versa.

  • so deep

  • almost sounds like something michael jackson would write great song

  • legendary

  • my fave madonna song and a great movie too! well besides like a prayer

  • Love MADGE, but this video is a rip off of Boy George's TO BE REBORN video which came out like 3-4 years earlier.....check it out

  • loveeeeeeeee this song by madonna !! love you for ever madonna !!!

  • This song plays in my head when I look back at my time at St. Virgil's College, especially when I was in Grade 8. I'm in Grade 9 now and will graduate from the College on it's 100th Centenary next year on the 27th November. St. Virgil's College is (what Madonna says in the song) my pride and joy. And when I graduate, I will graduate being a proud Virgilian and I will look back to the good times me, my teachers and my mates have had, for those memories I will treasure for the whole of my life.

  • love this song, love the movie, love Madonna... 

  • I love this song, especially when I go to Bay City, Michigan. I think of Modonna, where she grew up and all she went through . I can also relate this song to my life as well. Thank you Modonna.

  • This song makes me think of the boy I loved in elementary school, but was too afraid to tell him. By the time I had the courage to tell him how I felt, MANY years later, he was dead, WAY too young. I sometimes go back to that playground where he and I used to hang out on. I sit on the pitchers mound where we would play pickle, close my eyes and I think of this song. It brings him to me again. I miss him, but I know he is watching over me and always will. I love you Andy, always........

  • Just watched the movie for the first time in years and got knocked for a loop when I read the release date on the box. Many people I cared so much about are gone, not to mention other things I thought would last forever. The older I get the more I appreciate the song and the emotion it evokes. Big thanks to Madonna, it's stood the test of time (in a big way).

  • it is most powerful when played at the end of the movie "In a league of their own".

  • This video is classic, will never go out of date, unlike Lady Gag Reflex, just wait and wait and ............wait till she writes something THIS Good!

  • loe mejor que mis oidos hayan oído, la reyna Madonna, ojalá nunca dejes de hacer buena musica...

  • this just reminds me of me and my two buddies.I moved around my entire life and never had a fiend past two years.weve been friends 8 years now,and hes off fighting in the US Army,as I will be too in 2.5 weeks,just reminds me of all the good times we had,as just a trio,growing up together.Now we are all men..its crazy..

  • this would be a good song for people like me.adult children of abuse who are trying to heal and reclaim their lost childhood. it used to be our playground and can still be you are never too old to have a happy childhood

  • @MegaCrowman Your statments are so true,your like me,trying to recover YEARS of rejection and abuse...

  • like this video it sends a mesage that sometimes you have to let go the past and go on and cherish the good memories in your heart and soul peace to all 

  • ...you're not just....a memory...

  • This song gives me so many good memories, not just watching the movie "A league of their own". lol It reminds me of all the fun I had as a child & even though I know things will never be the same I remember it like it was yesterday & I'm filled with happiness!! Great song Madonna!!

  • A que tema mas bonito le llega al corazon remember the past y esa algo que se queda la cancion de madona es lindisima la letra, y mas con el video y la pelicula excelente madona esta a media edad en esa pelicula, y varias, thanks for this video

  • This song highlights how super talented Madonna is, natural gifted song writer and class varied singer, very respectful USA time piece well done Madge!

  • i agree with so of the others .i fell time is passing by to fast .i love to look back but fill so sad that its my past that iam none looking at.hey but its still good to have been there right ,love to all you guys that are a little old.stay young as long as you can ,in mind thats what mattersmost of all .sorry for all the spelling

  • I like very much Madonna since 1985 and for me she is the Greatest icon of Music and Fashion of XX century.

  • Very beautiful song, it reminds me of my childhood ♥

  • i cried tears of happiness when i heard this song for the first time since i was 7 while remembering the good old days. i love this song sooo much i am so glad i found this song today ;')

  • Beautiful song. Here's a fun fact. In July 1992, this video entered the VH1 top 21 countdown at number 14, five shows later was the number one video, stayed there for two weeks, spent thirteen weeks on the countdown and finished in at number 11 on the year end top 50 countdown.

  • @Aries1980100 FUCK YEA lol

  • Madonna is a brilliant song writer. No one can deny the talent of Madonna of listening to this song.

  • why did the 90's end? :[

  • @veight84 Like any good times,it has to leave us,leaving behind memories to cherish and we have to let it go...

  • @veight84 the 80's too :( this was close also 

  • @veight84 i say the same thing about the 80's....smh

  • @Soulfinger00Soul The 80's were pretty great too! Madonna ruled the 80's too!

  • @bellaimages I like her both in the 80's and 90's which the hard ? with no answer being she made some kick ass stuff then. she does make some good new stuff don't get me wrong and I'm thankful she's still on the scene despite I see nothing on the slate for 2011 for a new album but her older stuff is some of the best. defiantely her 2009 duet with her poser clone won't be debateable when debateing best Madonna 2000's or 20 teens song

  • @veight84 I know. this century and times sux so much ass

  • @veight84 So sad, but true. So far the 90's were the best times of my life. I had a great job, my dad was alive (he died in 2001) I was having great times with friends. Some are gone, some I've found on Facebook. Life is short, and it's these moments that will never come again. I love this song! Cherish life!

  • @veight84 because 2000 came over, maybe?

  • @veight84 in fucked up times like this and shitty 20's and 30's ain't looking no better I question why I go on damn I wish for those for the old days this century sux balls I can't find one damn good thing about it but I'm gonna see how the 30's play out if it sux and the 40's suck ass I'm gonna say fuck it by 45 or so

  • @odog65 Im really concerned, you cant find anything in your life to be happy about? Just saying as a fellow concerned human you might want to talk to someone about why you feel you want to die if your life doesnt get better. Life is what YOU make of it.

  • @TristanAnteros Not always, life is not always what u make it Dr.Phil, Take the silver spoon from your mouth and shove it in ur ass.

  • @odog65 I am 34, and I have been to the bottom 2 , dont let them win. U never know whats around the corner. Sometimes your up and sometimes down, When your up its never as good as it seems and when your down you think u will never be up again.Yes life sux, its dirty, we all in the same boat and its sinking, but when it sinks ,me and my Son will have a pocket full of cash, a smile on , and middle finger to the world, saying "fuck u world!, U couldnt destroy me!".

  • @bigGaza1 true I have a moment of upness every now and then. I don't think so much on cash myself. I wouldn't be happy even if I had 1,000 or a million. I'd rather have back the stuff that was once pleasurable or enjoyable but don't mean shit anymore. like TV. every minute of it sux now but just accepted it don't watch it anymore. & lots of other shit out there which quality taste or whatnot sux ass ok that does drive me nuts very minorly but will get to the thing that sux most on my next post
