Drowned World / Substitute For Love was released in Europe. It was the 3rd single.

wow, what an odd choice. i think thats one of the worst on the album (and by worst i mean good but not as good as any of the others). i think ray of light was the first madonna album where there were no obvious single choices, she had such a wide variety of fantastic songs to choose from and she chose that confuse


I would have said that Frozen, Ray Of Light & The Power Of Goodbye were all the most obvious, but all the reviews i read of the album all highlighted Drowned world as one of the best tracks on the album, an opinion I hold also. I agree its not the most obvious single choice though. I was actually amazed they never released Sky Fits Heaven as a single, that was better than Nothing Really Matters in my opinion.

IMO all of ray of light, except Mer Girl, could be released as single!

I imagine Has to be being a number one it if there was a New Age Single chart!!!

I think 'Ray Of Light' was filled with potential singles,and I'm not totally satisfied with the songs that they chose.If it were up to me,these would have been the five singles,in this order...

"Frozen"
"Ray Of Light"
"Sky Fits Heaven"
"Drowned World/Substitute For Love"
"Skin"


In fact,"Skin" was actually planned as the fifth single and remixes were made.

She's actually due for another video compilation. The last one ended off with Beautiful Stranger, so the next one could feature:

American Pie
Music
Don't Tell Me
WIFLFAG
Paradise (from DWT)
Die Another Day
American Life (full version)
Hollywood
Love Profusion
Bedtime Story (From RIT)
Hung Up
New Video
New Video

Ok maybe that's not enough but it would be nice if she did what Mariah is doing and rereleased COAD with a bonus dvd of videos and new tracks. I'm still not keen on the SE she has coming out despite the new track.


That last compilation was an absolute joke. It was pointless. It didnt support a greatest hits package, and it missed off loads of videos.

Justify My Love
This Used To be My Playground
Erotica
Deeper & Deeper
I'll Remember
You'll See
I Want You (one of my favourite maddy vids)

Then a few years later we got the ridiculous GHV2 that missed off a load of her best singles (Rain, Bad Girl, Youll See) and no new tracks. That was my madonna low point. My faith in her from that point onward wasnt restored until the ReInvention tour.


SHe did say that she didn't even care what went on the last GH or video compilation.

I love "Jump"! This had better become a single or I'll get pissed lol

imo,Madonna's best dance songs are the ones that have a yearning,pleading melody,and "Jump" has exactly that.I can't get this song outta my head.


I think Jump is what will really sell the album. The album is selling now because everyone loves Hung Up and the reviews are great, but as with Ray Of Light there are five singles on here that will help the album sell steadily into next year, and I think having Jump as a really strong (if not strongest) 3rd single will really push the album from simply being a success to a ten million seller..

Jump is my favourite track, it kind of reminds me of an evolved Over & Over rather than Keep It Together. Its the kind of message that simply sums up her whole ethos, just as O&O did twenty years ago.




nod "Jump" is destined to become a new Madonna classic.

I wish they would just release a deluxe 2-DVD compilation of her videos,including not only the ones that have been released so far and the ones you just listed,but also rare videos like "Everybody","Who's That Girl","Live To Tell" and many more.

Funny, I think it's the best and perhaps the best song of her career. It might not be the best choice for a single, but it's still a classic song.

I agree with the 4 main single choices. I know that "Skin" and "Little Star" were in various stages of planning as later singles. Both would've been good. And wasn't "Sky Fits Heaven" technically a double A-Side with "Drowned World"?
