The Immaculate Collection

Product Information

Another winning pop-dance confection, its lyrics dealing with the subject of a love that is never quite fulfilled: 'Something in the way you love me won't let me be!/I don't want to be your prisoner, so set me free." Here, Madonna sounds more refined and expressive, living the song's theme and delivering her most convincing performance to date. While the main keyboard work distinctly dates it as a product of its time, its essence still holds up as it's such a fine production. The sweeping synths and piano are complemented by the longing in Madonna's voice, which soars above the instrumental in a suitably subtle way so as not to obscure the song's emotional content. This gave you a clear sign that Madonna was not just a typical pop star; she had something special and unique.

The compilation comes to a halt following this more straight-forward number, which, regardless, is another superbly-produced piece of pop and carrying an effective vocal from Madonna. It actually bears a slight resemblance to 'Vogue' in its instrumental, again entwining dance-pop with house influences. A nice end to this thoroughly superb collection. MTV Video Music Awards". MTV.

Crazy For You: Published by WB Music Corp. ASCAP/Warner-Tamerlane Pub. Corp. BMI. Produced [...] for Jellybean Productions Inc. Another top-notch production courtesy of Nile Rodgers, and written by Peter Brown and Robert Rans. Provocative in content, Madonna claimed the song was indicative of her life at the time. Depicting materialism, she is asking for a rich and affluent life as opposed to romance and relationships. On this compilation, it has been slightly remixed and sounds all the better for it, consisting of striking synth arrangements with a robotic voice repeating the hook. The promotional video was a fun homage to Marilyn Monroe's 1953 film 'Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend'. 'Material Girl', just as 'Like A Virgin' had done before it, helped establish Madonna as an icon and from here began being touted by the press as the "Queen of Pop".
