I'd have to say "In This Life", that song gives me the chills.


That song shuts up anyone who only thinks Madonna writes songs like "Angel" and sings songs like "Material Girl".

When she performed this song on the "Girlie Show",it was one of the highlights of that show.No special effects,no dancers,just Madonna sitting down and sitting her heart out.

i too love this album. i play it mostly for bad girl. that's the song and one of my 2 favorite madonna videos along with oh father.
this week-end i was all about deeper and deeper though. i got to have a madonna moment.
i was hurrying down the street with a bunch of balloons and then was riding in a car, windows down with the balloons streaming. when, i got to my block, i got out and sauntered up to my building and up the steps to my apartment all with madonna in my head. i quickly put on deeper and deeper and proceeded to dance around. good times.

why do you say its about homosexual love?

VoicesCarry said:

I'd have to say "Deeper And Deeper". A subtle song about homosexual love, it's very well-written and has an incredibly dense production that just envelopes you and doesn't let go. The Latin flavourings on the instrumental break and the voice-only final line (when you least expect it) are also great touches. Her vocals are particularly strong on this track. Anyone remember the video for this? Very, very bad and very, very weird.

Deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper
Sweeter and sweeter and sweeter and sweeter

[Chorus:]

I can't help falling in love
I fall deeper and deeper the further I go
Kisses sent from heaven above
They get sweeter and sweeter the more that I know

When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
That's what my mama told me
Round and round and round you go
When you find love you'll always know
I let my father mold me

[Bridge:]

Daddy couldn't be all wrong
(Not gonna let you slip away, I'm gonna be there)
And my mama made me learn this song
(You're gonna bring your love to me, I'm gonna get you)
That's why

[chorus]

The deeper I go
All is fair in love she said
Think with your heart, not with your head
That's what my mama told me
All the little things you do
Will end up coming back to you
I let my father mold me

[bridge]
[chorus, repeat]

Someone said that romance was dead
And I believed it instead of remembering
What my mama told me
Let my father mold me
Then you tried to hold me
You remind me what they said
This feeling inside
I can't explain
But my love is alive
And I'm never gonna hide it again

[bridge]
[chorus]

Deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper
Never gonna hide it again
Sweeter and sweeter and sweeter and sweeter
Never gonna have to pretend
[repeat]

You got to just let your body move to the music
You got to just let your body go with the flow
Falling in love, falling in love, falling in love
I can't keep from falling in love with you
You know there's nothing better that I'd like to do


A close second would be "Bad Girl", which is only enhanced by its cinematic video.

Lyrics like:

Let my father mold me
Then you tried to hold me
You remind me what they said
This feeling inside
I can't explain
But my love is alive
And I'm never gonna hide it again

Sorry to go slightly off-topic,but....

A demo version of "Take A Bow" has just surfaced.Recorded in 1994,this is an early version that doesn't feature Babyface's vocals.You can hear it by clicking this link...

Maddy sounds great on this version.

Thanks a lot! I do really like it, and Madonna sounds great, but I prefer the album version. Thanks though!
'Cause your friends don't dance, and if they don't dance... well, they're no friends of mine.
