Just heard this on the radio (never thought I actually would hear it again). Brings back the good memories during the summer of '99. What did you think of it?
The first time I heard it was on TV. I didn't even realize she was contributing to the "Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me Soundtrack", until I saw the video, which I think is one of her finest. Great track and nice throwback to the 70s.
How well did it do chart-wise?
On Billboard it peaked at #19?

Great song! Spent a week at #1 on my chart, it's one of my favourite recent songs from her.

It's one of her worst singles.

One of the few later songs I can stand by Madonna.

Wow, I love this song. Of course, I also love anything that has to do with the Austin Powers trilogy, and almost anything that has to do with Madonna so I guess it makes sense. Spent six weeks at #1 on my chart, and was the #2 song of 1999.

I didn't really like it (or the video) but Rita Sever LOVED it on "Friday Night." She even did a spoof of the video which won a ton of jukebox battles.

Not one of Madonna's best singles, but I still liked it. I'm always happy when she has a Top 10 hit. :)

It was ok. I didn't really care for it when it was out, it was very boring.

Just a really fun pop song. I prefer the incredibly similar "Amazing" on her Music album though.

I don't like the original mix.
I like the Calderone Radio Mix better.

God, I've always had a special place for this song. It is just a great performance from her, I think. Perfect fusion between 70's pop and 90's rock.

This brings back memories of Texas '99 for me. I met a Beautiful Stranger that summer and then he went away.
love the song, rarely hear it though.

Pretty good. I like it better than most of her stuff since, excepting a couple songs.
