Does not sound like "la isla bonita" at all

@MadAboutSuits My vinyl booklet says "Music & Lyrics written by Madonna Ciccone, Patrick Leonard, Bruce Gaitsch".

@MadonnaTVCom He didn't write them for her, they co-wrote them.

@toolate4567 The song can be played on piano; it's just phenomenally difficult to control the nuanced melody over the odd beat and still maintain the song's seductive style.

@escuipo I guess you don't understand much about the root composition of your typical popular song. Or maybe you don't like art.

It's true actually.
Patrick also said that he wasn't involved in the Blond Ambition tour because when Madonna showed him the stage design he saw that the musicians were relegated to the background, basically in a pit, and he objected and wouldn't do it.
I'm sure Madonna's a lot more well-balanced about the whole thing nowadays. She was still young back then and in the full flow of her 'political' phase, consequently music and art took a back seat for a while.

This is transfixing. The rhythms perfectly evoke the lapping of waves on a beach.
Pat Leonard rules the world. Awesome. Madonna should perform some of the songs he wrote for her (the best songs of her career) in a setting like this with him on piano. Amazing.
