It's not a single yet. Not until December anyway. It's no "Dark Road", that's for sure!

In any case, this song is trying to be the "Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves" of the 00s, but it doesn't quite live up to it.

I don't care about this song much. Annie and Madonna is like filet mignon with Cheetos.
But I'm waiting in queue right now for Annie Lennox tickets! I never thought I'd get the chance to see her live and I can barely sit still!

woot!

But yeah, this song sucks.

Eh, not classic, but it's as interesting as anything I can recall from Bare.

is it true that Madonna was not intended to sing the whole second verse?

Not too crazy about it but I guess it could grow on me. If I wanted it to. But I don't think I do.

Compared to this "We Are The World" sounds like a masterpiece. And both are vomit-inducing. ill

That's correct.Madonna wasn't supposed to sing the entire second verse,but you know how Madonna is...she would never play second fiddle lol She took that verse and sang more than she was supposed to,lol.Annie had no problem with it,saying "Madonna has a huge audience..it'll help me get my message across".
