it was a single because it's the most obvious single-ready track on the album. in fact, it was probably put on the album for that reason alone. and it probably would have been a hit if it had actually been released on time at any of the 3 points they were beginning to push it as a single.


I'm going with Skin again.

lol I'm going with To Have and Not to Hold as well. And for the record, I like Nothing Really Matters. I think it's a great dance record, and the remixes are excellent.

"Nothing Really Matters" was a poor choice for a single.It's a boring,uneventful track.A much stronger choice would have been "Sky Fits Heaven" or even "Skin".In fact,at one point,"Skin" was being considered for single release.The B-side was planned to be "Hands Down",an outtake from this project.

As you wish. From buysellmadonna.com:

Thanks to UK collector James Cockings for the images of the Skin CDR. I have just added more images of another rare Skin CDR sent to me by Jimmy Glasgow in USA. Thanks Jim and James, wonderful images!

I know this pressing came out nearly four years ago but I keep getting email from collectors about the Skin promo and test releases from USA. So here is a great scan of the mega rare USA Maverick Digital Clone CDR. As the disc clearly states it was pressed 28th April 2000 (insert states revised '1st May' date) and contains the "Madonna Skin Collaboration Remix, remixed by Peter Rauhoffer & Victor Calderone". The insert is typical of the earlier official USA CDR pressings.





The second version of the Skin CDR is the one pictured to the right. It is basically the same as the one above but has the date covered with thick black pen. Incidently the date on the insert of this variation is earlier: 18th April 2000 (May 1st on the other pressing). Likewise this pressing has NO date on the disc, instead it show it as 00/00/00.

The third version of the Skin CDR is the one pictured to the right. It is basically the same as the one above but has NO date at all anywhere?

The fourth version of the Skin CDR is the one pictured to the right. It is basically the same as the 2nd one above with the date concealed by thick black marker pen (and possibly 18th April), however it's disc clearly shows the earlier 18th April 2000 date!. (Thanks Jürgen)

If YOU have an official Skin pressing on official Maverick CDR or Maverick promo, can you let me know, with scans if possible, as I want to clarify exactly what Skin releases actually surfaced in the end.


-----

About the only place you're going to find one of these discs is on Esprit (www.eil.com)

Just to note that I have seen discs with more mixes up for sale, just can't find pics at the moment.
