Madonna "Forbidden Love" (1994) vs. "Forbidden Love" (2005)---which do you prefer? Same title,same lyrical theme,but two entirely different songs.Which song is superior....the sexy,sultry 'Bedtime Stories' track featuring Babyface or the new,synth-heavy electropop 'COADF' track?

94 by far. Although I like the new song, it still is my least favorite on the album, while the 94 song is one of my very faves on Bedtime Stories. Feel free to join in the Prince Album Poll 2018! Let'a celebrate his legacy by counting down the most beloved Prince albums, as decided by you! | |

Forbidden Love,forbidden love Forbidden Love,we save our destiny forever Forbidden Love,forbidden love just one kiss,just one touch,just one look Forbidden Love,are we supposed to be together? Forbidden Love,forbidden love Forbidden Love,we save our destiny forever Forbidden Love,forbidden love Forbidden Love,are we supposed to be together?

it's a tough choice for me,I love both songs 
The 1994 song is a little more sexier though,so it wins.I still think it should have been a single. | |

madonna.com confirmed she is not performing at the Brits, however she is attending to present an award.
How disappointing. | |

Sheesh! That's a tough choice!
But... I think it's the 'Bedtime Stories' version which gets it. I love that album. | |

Easily the '94 version. I love that song.
COAD is a bit.... tacky, IMO. | |

1994, definitely.
I've been listening to a lot of Bedtime Stories lately, and I've been surprised at how well the album has aged. I think it's easily one of Madonna's most underrated albums. Forbidden Love '94 should've been a single. The video would've been fire, the song would've been huge, and Maddy could've racked up another #1 (or at least Top 10) hit. Gotta say that I respect her for going against the grain with the post-Take a Bow singles, though. Instead of taking the easy way out, Madonna gave the public what she wanted. The new cut is alright, defintely not one of the album's best tracks. Not among the worst songs on the disc, either. Just doesn't compare to the BS track. I'm the first mammal to wear pants. | |

it's funny...when I first heard the COADF album,I wasn't crazy about "Forbidden Love",I thought it was too slow and boring.But now,it's one of my favorite tracks on the album.I love the somber,haunting melody and that little percolating beat we hear throughout.It's probably the closest thing to a ballad on this album.I also like how it segues into "Jump". | |

I agree,it really should have been a single.It would have made sense.The previous collaboration with Babyface ("Take A Bow") went on to become her biggest hit ever."Forbidden Love" would have been the perfect follow-up.There were so many good songs on that album,it must have been hard to pick the singles. | |

That's a popular sentiment regarding most of Madonna's 90's work. "Erotica" becomes more brilliant everytime I listen 2 it. and 4 the record, I like the 2005 "Forbidden Love", but I think the 1994 "Forbidden Love" was a stronger song.

I had thought of this for a thread too.
Um I really like the NEW version better. And I hate to say it cuz I like the older one a lot. Christian Zombie Vampires | |

94 is going to be played at my wedding should gays in the States ever be allowed to marry It is difficult to believe in a religion that places such a high premium on chastity and virginity.
Catholicism is not a soothing religion. It's a painful religion. We're all gluttons for punishment. I'm not Religious All quotes Madonna | |

94 by a country mile. | |

I like them both but I have to give it to the 2005 version. I've played it more than the 94 one and it just kicks my ass when I listen to it. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |
