"Gambler" is the second single by Madonna from the soundtrack album and motion picture, Vision Quest and was released on October 3, 1985 by Geffen Records. It was not released in the United States but was in other parts of the world, notably in the United Kingdom where it was a top 5 hit. The single was the last to date of Madonna's commercially available songs whose songwriting was credited solely to Madonna until the release of I'm Going To Tell You A Secret, which included the original version of I Love New York, also written by Madonna alone. The majority of songs from her subsequent career have been co-written by Madonna and other artists. As the song was recorded on the Geffen label, it was rumored in the music press that a commercial issuing of the single in the US was suppressed at the request of Madonna's Sire records management. It was feared that commercial availability of yet another single by Madonna would have been detrimental to the other singles from the "Like a Virgin" album and the already available, Geffen-distributed "Crazy for You", all of which were performing well in the Billboard charts. Whether the song could have been another US Top 5 hit for the singer in 1985 will remain unknown, though in some other markets "Gambler" was Madonna's sixth consecutive Top ten hit in the space of just eleven months. At one stage, this was one of four of Madonna's singles simultaneously in the Australian top 40, showing the singer's incredible international appeal at the time. "Gambler" remains the only of Madonna's released solo singles never to have been made available on any of her albums. The song was performed in the Virgin Tour.

thanks...I've read five different biographies on her. for any true Madonna fan, I recommend the one by J. Randy Taraborelli. it's the best one, mostly because he spent time interviewing her personally as well as people she knows like her family and people she dated and worked with over the years! :) you can find him on facebook and myspace as well: he's really great to talk to! :)
