@whoresup Very heartbreaking song *no pun intended* and I think the lyrics reveal a lot about the subject matter. Another one where we get to see her vulnerable side and great vocals.

@selenalavigne Better than I remember but... I mean you can't compare this to some other perfection on the album.

@Blown Away I instantly fell in love with the piano instrumental, I kinda wish it remained just with the piano through the entire song. But the rousing production is great too. The lyrics are very good too, the only thing it misses is a powerful chorus.

@Lionel Ronaldo Nice song to listen to once in a while, all I can say.

@MingersPrayer One of the lynch pins from the album. Classic Madonna & an example of how underrated this era was. I don't know why Madonna didn't go against the tide more with this campaign and just promote what she wanted rather than songs that might be radio friendly. This she's a progression in M that I love to see.

@nickkokoAnother beautiful ballad. She sounded great when I saw the tour, and it made me appreciate the song even more.

@monstertoronto heartfelt ballad. "you said i was your queen, tried to give you everything... now I'm no longer needed". So many lyrics seem so from her heart and her relationships with men and the public.

@HausOfAntonioI literally don’t know what this sounds like.

@Lorde Von Kok Meh.

@FentyGa lyrics are a bit cringeworthy at times, but that’s always madonna, i guess lol. it’s a great song.

@shoful Another amazing song. Puts me in the feels

 the thing I feared the most. Tasteless people

COMMENTS:

@lasagnathe final version is a bit bland but the demo alone elevates this banger to a 10

@whoresup Nice vocals and melody. A bit boring and it feels like it drags on but it’s a nice song.

@selenalavigneI don't hate this song. I love the message but it's the weakest on the standard edition so giving it a 0. If this was on any other Madonna album it would get a 7 or 8. that just shows you how good Rebel Heart is.

@Blown Away This song is sounds like a watered-down version of HeartBreakCity, but I like the chorus better. The harmonies in the beginning of it are amazing.

@Lionel Ronaldo Nice closer for the (standard edition) album. beautiful.

@MingersPrayer Back on good form IMO. Interesting lyrics and more in line with who madonna actually is as a person & an artist. Like the production. Would like to hear this as a more 90s style production like Bedtime Stories. Much prefer the demo of this song but it seems like she decided to go the Kayne route for the overall feeling of the album than the Avicii route. I prefer the euro dance sound with keyboards.

@nickkoko I love the lyrics and vocals here; I think the best ballad on the album. I actually do like the demo better, but the album version is fantastic too.

@monstertoronto This is another gorgeous song. So beautiful and so personal. Ugh this album is so amazing, and so full of awesome songs, why was it so ignored? Madonna essentially answers that question in the song itself "In a world that's changing, I'm a stranger in a strange land." She seems to accept it "If this is the end, let it come, let it rain..." I actually LOVED the Avicii dance version of this song that leaked in demo form. I wish that version had made the album instead, but this version is still great.

@Lorde Von Kok Good production, but something is missing to make it great.

This is a shame. I think if the Avicii version had been used it would be top 3.

COMMENTS:

@whoresup Mediocre and one that I often forget. Not much substance to this song and I think that lets down the album in general. Especially when we know there are so many good tracks she recorded that didn’t make the record.

@selenalavigne Some of these lyrics are cheesy and the rap part was MEHHH but there's this like buzzy bass sound that gives me so many chills ughhh. This album is mixed and mastered so well. OMFGGGG.

@Blown Away This song should be listened to headphones, I had mixed feelings about it at first but after listening to it with headphones I found out how much of a bop this is. The song sounds very rich, hyped and the way the song builds up from the beginning to that drop is fantastic. The only letdown in the song is Chance's verse.'

@Lionel Ronaldo I like the beat and the music however the collab with these two, especially Mike Tyson ruins it a bit for me.

@MingersPrayer Catchy song and danceable. It didn't make the cut of my edited version of the album on Spotify though. I just don't care about what she's saying and it's not powerful enough to just be a euphoric dance song.

@nickkoko Such a bop. This song deserved a proper music video, but the RHT backdrop was pretty cool. If I could give multiple 11s I would!

@monstertoronto love this. I love the way it follows Joan of Arc, because she's just shown her vulnerability but then immediately reminds us she knows she's iconic with this fun jam.

@HausOfAntonio So forced.

@Lorde Von Kok Weird placement on the album, but the pre-drop and the drop are A-MA-ZING. Mike Tyson's feature, very corny.

COMMENTS:

@whoresup This is a solid song for me, good production and vocals. One of the songs I listen to most from the album.

@selenalavigne When the song just restarts lmfaoooo. I can't.

@Blown Away Another great, mature and graceful song that still manages to go with the times without trend-hopping. I think this is one of the most underrated and overlooked songs on the album.

@Lionel Ronaldo I don't know what to say about this song. Is there autotune in it?

@MingersPrayer I like this song. Another prime example of a producer bringing a track to madonna & a team writing around a theme. It doesn't connect to Madonna the artist. I rated this highly as it's slick and fun but it's not one of my favourites.

@nickkoko I love that dark synth bass throughout the song. Such an underrated song in my opinion, I really love the vocal melodies in the chorus.

@monstertoronto Gorgeous chorus. I'm not as huge a fan of the verses. They're totally fine, but the chorus is amazing.

@Lorde Von Kok A Kanye West feature would've been great. It's alright on it's own.
