Your thoughts on What It Feels Like For A Girl

I never heard this song played on the radio. However I think this song is still one of the most dramatic songs of the decade from a pop star. I wish the video came with the original version ... I saw somebody do it with youtube and it made the video even better.


Your thoughts?






The song was written by Madonna and Guy Sigsworth and produced by Madonna, Sigsworth, and Mark "Spike" Stent. An additional composer credit is included in the I'm Going To Tell You A Secret CD inner notes, with David Torn being the third composer. The track contains an excerpt from "The Cement Garden".

A Spanish version of the song was especially recorded for inclusion on the single as the B-side. "Lo Que Siente la Mujer" was released as a promo-only single in Europe. Later it was added to the two-disc Tour Edition of Music and the Mexican Edition of the album along with the remix of the same track replacing "American Pie", and was performed live on Madonna's Drowned World Tour in the same summer.

The maxi-single containing the Above & Beyond and Paul Oakenfold trance remix of the song was also released alongside the conventional single version. This remix was very popular in nightclubs.

OMG lol I thought it was going to be that new Beyonce song. So I started listening before I saw it and I was like she sampled Madonna!!!! That B!
Anyway, I used to loved this song. I like the lyrics and music. There’s a strong feeling of sadness connected to it even without the video.

I think the video is more provacative than the actual song. While I like the song, it is not one of my favorites (nor was the other single from the same album "Don't tell me")
