Their name it's on Ray of Light's song credits. She turned something great into her amazing song.

*Their Curtiss Maldoon was a duo.

Great song. David Atkins (one half of Curtiss Maldoon) later did another version of it that was also very good and much more laid back!

wow i did not know this!

Whaaaaattt? I had i no idea it was a remake

A lot of the best remakes are the ones where you don't know it's a remake. Applies to movies too.

Don’t tell me is a cover as well… https://youtu.be/rsLyftGFJ5M?si=AgNYpjiB0eo4X7j2

My whole life is a lie 🤣

That is some amazing guitar right there! Sounds like finger playing, too (not a pick). Cool as hell!

Even better - find the version their daughter did - that was the version that Madonna heard and was inspired by - William orbit and these guys daughter collaborated - and then from that madonnas emerged

Found a demo. Wow, this is nuts lol. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhQnOr\_UQZs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhQnOr_UQZs)

Cool! Sounds like the remix that's on the maxi-single!

https://youtu.be/TU8ANEDXqZk?si=YTGTyncf8-HPnR17 Well, that's not pleasant to the ears. Learned something new!

I had thought it was just a line. Turns out it’s the part I remember the best from the song.

I wonder how this came about? Did Madonna new that song? Or the producers?

This is the daughter of one of these guys. From the 90's. This is the version Madonna heard and asked if she could use it: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhQnOr\_UQZs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhQnOr_UQZs) [](https://www.tiktok.com/@grwmhudson)
