    I can rephrase that sentence more clearly: I recently watched the movie Air (starring Matt Damon & Viola Davis) on Amazon Prime. I'm not a sports fan but love Viola Davis. It was surprising to hear the song Leave Atlantic City in a scene in that movie -- which was originally in the score for Desperately Seeking Susan. It was instantly recognizable to me and I took it as a nod to Madonna. The movie was set in 1984. 

    Ah I see. Interesting to see it get used again. I love the soundtrack incidental music.

    Great! I never understood why Into the Groove wasn't in the final OST tracklist

    Only the incidental music was on the soundtrack. All the actual songs inc Carly Simon, Run DMC, Iggy Pop, Aretha Franklin would have cost too much to license.

    Amazing! Thank you so much for this. I recently watched the movie Air on Amazon and was amazed to hear Leave Atlantic City in the film. 

    Why? Is there an extra scene that sometimes that gets edited out? 

  3. I came across this on youtube. I've never heard of this 12" and never come across the remixes before. Anyway aware of it?

    You are watching and listening to a very rare DJ promo only version of the classic #1 single by pop queen Madonna "Vogue". It was originally released as a dj promo only along side the singles Express Yourself, Like A Prayer and Justify My Love to promote her upcoming singles collection entitled "The Immaculate Collection" that same year in 1991. On this rare version of "Vogue" is several samples and inserts created for this promo. Also on this very rare vinyl promo is the extended music for a dj to mix into other tracks. This record is included in a list of the top 50 rarest vinyl records of Madonna. This vinyl your watching is #0131#madonnararevinyl #strikeapose #1990smadonna #madonnadjpromos of only 200 ever pressed.

    A shorter - and much better :silly: - version that I made today, combining the dance remix with the dub version. I mastered the whole thing, got rid of all parts I don't like that much and removed the glitches and editing errors (there are maaaany in the official release).

    It's a lossless wav file:

    And you can dance... for inspiration! :fingerclick:

    The video version could be the 7" edit version of 3:50

    back in 1985 I never understood why they put the album version of 4:40 on the 7" single as it is very long for a 7" single and radioplay.

    To me they could have put the 3:50 version on the 7" single

    I think it was because it was never intended to be released as a single. It was only the b-side in the US for Angel as they didn't want it to cannibalise LAV. So the rest of the world had to make do with the original version.

    Warner's should have flipped it and put Angel on the B side with the video edit for the 7". Such a lost opportunity.

    So is it safe to say "You Thrill Me" came together after Love Hurts and Erotica demos, possibly a reworked version for the tour? 

    No, You Thrill Me was the original chorus to Erotica. There's never been an actual song called 'You Thrill Me', it's just two versions of Erotica, the first with the You Thrill Me lyrics, the second with the released lyrics. The confessions version was just a re-worked version of the first demo version of Erotica.

    Hope that is clear

    Two tiny things....

    Wikipedia is not facts.

    There's several News Stories now about how in some countries what's on it has been manipulated by crooks or just crooked governments.

    People are dying over it.

    Isn't the Love Hurts version from just before she worked with Shep Pettibone ?

    Vasquez and Pettibone seem to trying to claim a bit more credit for the track ??

     

     

    Firstly, it's pretty reliable in certain circumstances; I think crooks and governments have got better information to change than Madonna's discography FFS. 

    Secondly, the quote is from The Erotica Diaries written by Shep so yes, it's reliable. And yes, Junior worked on Love Hurts before Shep worked on Erotica. The thread is about what was the evolution of the song so I don't see what the problem is? Love Hurts clearly went on to become Erotica.

    I think that the correct order for Erotica demos is this:

    -Love Hurts
    -Erotica (Instrumental Demo)
    -Erotica (Rough Mix - 1992.01.15)
    -Erotica (Final Demo 1 - 1992.01.16)
    -Erotica (Final Demo 2 - 1992.01.16)
    -Erotica (Album Version / Pre-Final Mix)
    -Erotic (Erotica Final Mix included on the SEX Book CD)

    @L-U-V

    Checking out the Erotica entry on Wikipeida, it seems the order could be more like:

    -Love Hurts
    -Erotica (Instrumental Demo) - prepared by Shep as one of four tracks he presented to Madonna
    -Erotica (Rough Mix - 1992.01.15)
    -Erotica (Final Demo 1 - 1992.01.16)
    -Erotica (Final Demo 2 - 1992.01.16)
    -Erotic (included on the SEX Book CD)
    -Erotica (Album Version / Pre-Final Mix)

    From Wikipedia:

    While they were mixing a song called "Erotic", which was released as promotional single on her Sex book, Pettibone recalled:

    "You have all these great stories in the book," I told her, "Why don't you use them in the song?" I knew that Madonna was developing a 1930s dominatrix look for Erotica, but I didn't realize how far she was willing to go before I saw Sex. It contained stories authored by her mysteriously dark alter [ego], Dita. Madonna took the book and walked out of the room and didn't come back until about half an hour later. Suddenly she was on the mic, speaking in this very dry voice. "My name is Dita," she said, "and I'll be your mistress tonight." I knew that the original "Erotica" would never be the same again, and it wasn't. The chorus and bridge were changed entirely and the whole psyche of the song became sexier, more to the point. It seemed as if Dita brought out the best in her, actually serving as a vehicle for the dangerous territory she was traveling. Actually, it was the same name Madonna used when she'd stay in hotels around the world. Not anymore.[6]

  9. As far as I'm aware, the song was never called You Thrill Me. The Rain Tapes always referred to it as Erotica. The chorus changed from the 'You thrill me' lyrics in the rough version to the 'Erotica' lyrics in the final version. 

    And the chorus was clearly changed quite late on as the MAW remixes feature the line 'I'm so in love with you' from the original chorus.
