Side note

[edit]

I love this song and Björk so much and would be glad to review this!! :)

Infobox

[edit]

Lead

[edit]
  • "...American singer Madonna forher sixth studio album..." --> "...American singer Madonna for her sixth studio album..."
  • "was written by Björk...and was the first time the former wrote a song for a Madonna album." --> Wasn't it also the only time she wrote a song for Madonna?

Background and release

[edit]
  • "...on the soul musical scene," --> soul musical scene? Shouldn't it be soul music scene?
  • "Madonna also wanted to explore the British club musical scene" --> Same here

Recording and composition

[edit]
  • Doesn't sound right to me; shouldn't it be: "Unlike Madonna's more up-tempo, melodic work, the song is slower and has less melody but complex rhythmic structure.[9]" --> "Unlike Madonna's more up-tempo, melodic work, the song is slower and has less melody but a more complex rhythmic structure.[9]"
  • Rest is great

Critical reception

[edit]
  • "in a review for the album as a whole..." --> "in a review for the parent album as a whole..."
  • "author Victor Amaro Vicente wrote in his book," --> "Author Victor Amaro Vicente wrote in his book,"

Commercial performance

[edit]
  • "she would have achieved a consecutive string of 33 top 40 hits, starting from her single "Holiday" (1983)." --> "She would have achieved a consecutive string of 33 top 40 hits, starting from her single "Holiday" (1983)."
  • "On the Canadian RPM Top Singles chart it reached a peak of number 46.[28]" --> "On the Canadian RPM Top Singles chart, it reached a peak of number 46.[28]"

Music video

[edit]

Background and development

[edit]
  • "About 20 days later Shaffer dropped the final sketches at Propaganda Films, who were producing the video.[38]" --> "About 20 days later, Shaffer dropped the final sketches at Propaganda Films, who were producing the video.[38]"
  • Rest is flawless; great work! :)

Reception and analysis

[edit]
  • "The music video has also drawn comparisons to Tarsem Singh's films, The Fall (2006) and The Cell," --> What year was The Cell released in to stay consistent?

Live performances and legacy

[edit]
  • "A Junior Vasquez remix of the song was performed at the 1995 Brit Awards, Madonna wore a white Versace dress and long hair extensions, an image similar to the Versace advertisement campaign she was promoting." --> A comma in between "Brit Awards" and "Madonna" is incorrect and should be either a period or a semi–colon.

Track listings and formats

[edit]
  • Fantastic!

Charts

[edit]
  • Great! :)
