  • This isnt a good song at all >:(

    ITS A FUCKING PIECE OF ART.

  • Never seen something so gorgeous before

    I'll never forget the first time I heard this song

    and since than I'm loving it

  • Most songs are prayers...like a prayer duh!

  • beautiful

  • Brain wash!!

  • this is not a song

    it is a prayer

  • I LOVE THIS VIDEO! GREAT PICS! LOVE&PEACE<3

  • Wow this song takes me to another dimension ! Such a beautiful song .. Her voice sounds incredible .. Love Madonna

  • I'm sad today and my knee and ankle kill.

  • TO TENORSTEW - it appears on the japanese version of ray of light as a bonus track... and as a b side to ray of light

  • reminds me just today i think i finally found him!

    one of my FAV SONGS EVERRRRRRRRRR EXACTLY HOW I FEEL!

  • this really really should have been on the album I never cared much for little star...

  • @tenorstew : it's on the japanese edition ;-)...

  • Madonna, you are a gift to your fans. <3

  • This song is one of the best Madonnas ever........

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS!!! Thank you for posting!!!! <3

  • "Has to Be" was also available as the B-side to the "Ray of Light" single

  • @Celluloidkid was it? I only see Ray of Light singles with remixes =((

  • @Photoshopeiroh it was the b side to the ray of light single in the US. The one with remixes was the US maxi single.

  • @Celluloidkid : it was available on the japanese edition of the album...

  • masterpiece.....ray of light single....! it always reminds me of my dear grandma when she died - so much help to cope! thanks madonna!

  • Is this her slowest song?

    I love this song – the lyrics, her voice, the music.

  • Comparing this amazing ARTIST with Lady Gaga... That's a CRIME!

  • It's so sad that she is unlikely to work with william orbit again... I really hope that some day they will reunite because this song and the whole Ray of Light album are so unique.

  • @plamenlesev She is actually currently working with him right now, producing the soundtrack for her upcoming movie W.E. in which she is directing. Hopefully they will also work together on her next studio album later this year.

  • @gnr2k8 A new madonna/orbit album would be the greatest thing!

  • @plamenlesev I agree!!! I had the exact same thought the other day!

  • i dont know why this didnt make it to the album. they could have left Shanti or Little Star out ;)

  • Madonna will neve be outdone, no matter what the gaga brigade say <3

  • oh my i love this, she is such a wonderfully beautiful Light

    -Love

  • 11 people have no soul

  • sorry but this all most put me to sleep

  • @aquilinonyc You must have retarded ears. This is music and art at the same time.

  • what a beautiful song and Madonna can convey such depth of longing and regret in her voice. I like Madonna when she writes deep songs, such as on spirituality, loss and unrequited love.

  • I'm crying!

  • @radsonxD1 why ?! :S

  • It's interesting how this sounds so much like Dido's music.

    I really feel sorry that Madonna has recently descended so low in her quality standards in what it comes to the music she puts out, especially when I come across these gems of the past.

    I just miss the Ray Of Light times so much...

  • simply divine. Should have been included on the regular album. It's sad that this Outtake is better than the whole last Madonna album. The Ray Of Light era was her ´peak.

  • dear madonna this is beautifull

    

  • This is a kiss ass song from Madonna!

  • this song in beautiful

  • 0:32 - I love that picture! Anyone know what shoot it's from?

  • Aamazing song, SO BEAUTIFUL AND DEEP.

    I hope Madonna come back to underground music!! Today she is not at her best!

  • Stunning!

  • I Love This Song!! And I Love Her! <3

  • what a beautiful song... i like what she is doing now, but i miss this madonna...

  • This is so calming to listen to...

  • It seems this song is very similar to "lady in red" song.The melody is similar, the mood is similar, the words differ, but i like both songs :)

  • This song brings me to a good place place.

  • DANCE MUSIC of MADONNA LIVE by PIANO TEACHER !

  • I do not know what i will do when she is gone. What an amazing person.

  • She is an amazing woman and artist. Creativity and innovation at the best level

  • Desperately seeking this track! I'm literally obsessed with this beautiful song.

  • Just Beautiful...

  • why most of the bonus tracks are in Japan?

    what is wrong with the US?

    Like I mean US singer make bonus tracks for Japan (the end of the world)?!!!???!!!

  • @mcatbs9 In Japan, the sales of CDs are really low, so artists use to include bonus tracks to make CDs more attractive

  • @MrTheQuaver uh huh....that is why..Thanks ;D

  • @MrTheQuaver WRONG ANSWER....KIND IF IGNORANT DUDE! LOVEUGODBLESS T AND J KABBALAH MATTHEWSHEPARD

  • this is from Ray of Light released in Japan.

  • it took me forever, but i FINALLY found the mp3 of this song, it's amazing

  • This is such a beautiful song artistically but wise at the same time.

    We always pray to God and often we think that HE is unfair because we just don't get in life everything we ask for. All of a sudden we realize that being alive and healthy is a precious gift, so we start being grateful for what we have.

    IMO Love is the answer and the meaning of life.

    I love Madonna for her ability and skills. She as a performer is out of this world.

  • @marclaumann an amazing commentary on a fantastic song.

  • Thanks for the feedback :-)

  • Madonna is really queen. ♥

  • HERMOSA!

  • Besser geht es kaum! :-)

  • Comment removed

  • ONE OF HER BEST BALLADS EVER!!!!!! PURE MAGIK!!!!!!!!!! MORE ORBIT PLEASE M!!!!!!! xxxxxx

  • @PaulEPratt I'm sorry this doesn't compare to Soulja Boy but YOUR DUMBASS chose to listen to the full song

  • Madonna + W.Orbit = MASTERPIECE

  • exatcly! POLSKA !

  • true , i never understand why they dont work again 2ghter ....!

  • What a gem! this song captivated me and won't rest till I find it.

  • You could convert this into an MP3. Just google youtube video to MP3 converters.

  • I have no idea why this was never released. Simply gorgeous from start to end. Beautiful.

  • it was released as a bside for the ray of light single in Australia, as a track 14 on the japanese ray of light album release and maybe some european release too - ebay or amazon babe! :)

    and yes i agree with you SIMLY FUCKEN GORGEOUS!!!!!! one of my fave M ballads EVER!!! x

  • amazing song.. it was on the b side of the single of "ray of light" from 98.. this song got me through some rough times

  • This song including in the album Ray Of Light 1998 exit just for the Japan but I have a single Ray Of Light in minibox paper where are this song exit in Europe in the january 1999 in limited edition.

  • This song is so amazing, it creates a beautiful enviroment that surrounds you, and probably is one of the best songs written by Madonna. Unfortunately, my ROL CD doesn't have it, and I hope Warner releases a CD of non-tracks someday, Madonna has several outtakes that are very gorgeous!

  • easy to find! it's on the japanese release and it's the bside of ROL on at least the Australian ROL single release. _ EBAY!! :)

  • Beautiful!

  • I am so enchanted by this song. I had it and then I lost it, there has to be a way to get this song.

  • rip it off this,

    mp3mymp3

  • this music sounds like it would be on Earthbound

  • vecchia gallina smutandata e stonata!!!

  • This "art" is for net wits .. It's all a form of brain wash and hypnosis people .. Think out of the box .. Imagine there were no music ever .. Can you imagine the power your brain will have thinking on it's own? Can you imagine how free you would be?

  • If you want people to think for themselves and find freedom, then the FIRST place you need to start is the elimination of RELIGION..... the most pathetic mind-virus in the history of the planet.

  • I"M WITH U! :)

  • So true! Then after that, the monetary system must go.

  • Does anyone know where I can download this?

  • superbe ! merci

  • Wow this woman is good. Again with feelings.This is lovely.

  • great video. thanks for giving us the chance to hear this song. love the graphics. many thanks for this.

  • perfect (L)

  • I don't have words.....

    Just beautiful........

  • Where did you get the image at 4:33 ?

  • Oh meu deus... Tanto espanhól... :P

    This song is beautiful! *.*

    Lindooo!! *.* Love Madonna!! Madonna para sempree!!

    Ou pelo menos até eu morrer... :D

  • Hola, Hello, HalLo...como sea... esta cancion me ha dejado con muchas dudas, no le hayo logica a la cancion, y quiza eso se debe a mi traduccion, alquien podria ayudarme y decirme la idea escencial de esta rola tan enigmatica y genial....

    Gracias, Thanks, Danke!!!! o como sea ... jajaja

  • que mujer tan EXTRAORDINARIA esta, Dios la Bendiga con sus defectos y virtudes... Ejemplo viviente de lo que es autorealizarse en la vida!!!

  • Considero que ella es una gran artista, la admiro mucho y me gusta porque sabe reinventarse de tal manera que siempre esta vigente y no deja que el tiempo se la lleve de encuentro....pero creo que exageraste un poco con tus apreciaciones, bendecir a una persona sin duda alguna es algo fantastico y lo mejor que uno pueda hacer por un semejante...pero bendecirla por el solo hecho de ser MADONNA, tampoco tampoco pues...osea UBICATE!

  • A ver...! según tu limitado entendimiento yo bendigo a la señora solo por ser Madonna... primero, eso no es tu problema, segundo; no sé si la frase "ejemplo viviente de auto realización" te dirá algo... Tal vez la mayoria de las personas, es decir, las inteligentes entienden que ese es un privilegio que pocos tenemos en la vida y qué no será por eso la bendicion? pues...osea ANALIZA! ubicado estoy!

  • El hecho de bendecirla por ser Madonna no quiere decir que la bendigamos por linda o por popular... Para mi (y para muchas personas) Madonna ha sido un refugio ante situaciones bastante negativas encontrando entendimiento y compasion yo la bendigo por eso...

  • Totalmente de acuerdo

  • Va de la esperanza de encontrar a alguien q valga la pena, a no perder la esperanza de q ESE o ESA persona este esperando por ti ya que hasta ahora no has tenido eso q querias... "Debe haber alguien fuera esperando, tiene q haber..."

  • No le hagas caso a la logica hermano, simplemente dejate llevar por la exquisita composición, por cierto usaste la palabra perfecta para describirla "enigmatica"

  • oh i love this song thanks a lot

    for this video it`s beautiful, and the song is amazing

  • i'd like to no what CD you can buy it on. She really should release a B side and unreleased tracks cd.

  • Its on the ray of light uk cd single, but there is 3 cd singles so get the correct one, its also on the Japanese ray of light album as a bonus track...

  • @Ulikeornot Why japanese cds have always such tracks -.-'

  • @Alienzod Totally agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @Alienzod I believe it was the B-side to the RAY OF LIGHT single. 

  • what cd are you talking about?

  • I used to have this song on Cd and I lost it. I'm so happy to hear it again on here.

  • one of the best and saddest songs ever

  • Its a B side of ROL single

  • Im a M fan and I always respect the work of the produders/ cowritters. Could you please tell me where is William Orbit now? There it is the answer, If it wasnt for M, ROL would never be a success.

  • Spiritual Song, Wonderful, Magical ... The Madonna's Best Album !

  • Madonna rules

    Fuck detractor

  • This was included on the ROL cd single in the U.S. I agree, M is a serious artist & has been for quite some time, regardless of what the detractors say. I spoke w/ Nile Rodgers in 2004 at a seminar - he said M was always underrated as an artist. Also, while recording LAV, she scheduled studio time early in the AM, which was tough for those who partied the nite b4. She was very disciplined. "Time is money and the money is mine," she would tell him. I'm looking forward to her work w/ Oakenfold.

  • I love this song. I wish she would make more music like this.

  • I love this song. It is very haunting. I wish she would return to this kind of music.

  • I don't know why, but Japan always gets bonus tracks lol, madonna isn't the only artist with precious bonus tracks only in Japan.

  • No, I had this song a long time ago in France in a 2 track disc. The first song was "Ray of light" the second was "has to be". That's how I came to know about it.

  • love it, I never heard this one

  • one of the best songs

  • Adrian, you made a wonderful work. Congratulations!

  • Bom demais.

    E uma canção surpreendente!!!

  • great song....

    madge leave the urban shit alone. you're better that.

  • As much as I love Madonna, I have to agree with you. She had become such an artist, I don't know why she panders to the current flavor of the month, however much she may tweak it.

  • well William Orbit is the real artist in all this, dont you think?

  • I don't think WO is the only artist in all of this, I know he's a part, but one can observe that M has BECOME an artist in her own right from the Like A Virgin days. She's stretched herself creatively when she didn't have to, she's broadened her musical scope, lyrics and subject matter matured tremendously and I think that M must be given credit where credit is due. I just don't believe that WO is the only artist in the mix. I do believe that M is an artist and she does contribute to her art.

  • yes you are probably right... she probably steers the direction of most tracks somehow, gets people to drop things/ideas they would otherwise keep, or asks them to put more emophasis on certain things etc

  • At the same time, I really do think the producers/ writers are often totally overlooked by the majority of the fans, even though without them there would certainly be no Madonna album at all. And even someone like Annie Lennox has acknowledged that even though much of the raw material in her songs is by her, without the very talented producer she usually works with, she would never have been able to release a solo album worth listening to.

  • Oh, I totally agree with you in terms of the comment you made before this one. Take Drwned World/Substitute for Love, for instance. If you listen to the original version, which was probably written by Madonna, it has a sing-song quality but the end product was a song that sounded much more conversational and confessional. I believe that was WO in the mix. Or someone else. And I also agree with you about the overlooking of producers and writers. M has often said that she surrounds herself

  • well honey madonna has always, i mean ALWAYS acknowledged the work of her producers, and honey all of her fans share hothing but a huge respect for Patrick Leonard, William Orbit, Mirvais, Stuart Price, etc, etc........

  • (continued from below) with the est of the best, so I do think that is a big part of why she is so great. But, at the end, she is the one responsible for the execution--no matter how much input or collaboration.

  • cool

  • ela é linda a musica é linda!! amei

  • Awesomely haunting song. Pierces the heart.

  • she awesome i love madonna.

    She is like my idol xx
