Why, oh why, wasn't this included on her Immaculate Collection?? So many great gems were left off.

I agree, this deserved to make her Immaculate Collection. Very good song.

^ I agree.
This is just awful to me. Probably my least favorite Madonna #1.

I started appreciating this recently. It always sounded like an inferior "La Isla Bonita" to me (and tbh, it kinda is), which is why I dismissed it for years.
I love the opening line: When you see her, say a prayer and kiss your heart goodbye...

I like it, but it's not even close to being one of my favorites by her. I prefer "The Look of Love" and "Causing A Commotion" from that soundtrack.

It really is a La Isla Bonita knockoff, possibly her least inspired single since she just repeated herself to score an easy hit. It's also the most dated track on Celebration for me...

I didn't regard this one as highly throughout the years, but after it was a regular on the 70s/80s/90s playlist at my store, I fell in love with it all over again. I agree with the comments that it was in a similar style as "La Isla Bonita" but I felt this was more 80s synthpop than LIB. The bridge is my favorite part. I also like the layering of the backing harmonies and alternate hooks throughout the song.

Agree, this is a great song, and I don't care, I love the movie too. :)

this is an iconic Madonna track. def deserves to be performed at a tour again. In Fact if ONLY she'd have toured that album and done every song off Celebration. IMAGINE THAT.

Certainly not one of my favs from 80's Madonna, but it has it's merits. And it's a perfectly lovely song on it's own, although "LIB" is miles better. Love the verses, the vocal layering and the bridge. Even reductive 80's Madonna sh*ts on entire careers.

The movie was awful, but this was a great song.

SiriusXM 80s on 8 plays this quite a bit.

Agree, always have thought this. That said, of all the songs from the WTG soundtrack, I think the Look of Love has aged the best. |
