Subject: Madonna's song about her mom
Promise To Try
written by Madonna and Patrick Leonard
Track 5, Time: 3:36
-------------------------
Little girl don't you forget her face
Laughing away your tears
When she was the one who felt all the pain
Little girl never forget her eyes
Keep them alive inside
I promise to try -- it's not the same
Keep your head held high -- ride like the wind
Never look behind, life isn't fair
That's what you said, so I try not to care
Little girl don't run away so fast
I think you forgot to kiss -- kiss her goodbye
Will she see me cry when I stumble and fall
Does she hear my voice in the night when I call
Wipe away all your tears, it's gonna be all right
I fought to be so strong, I guess you knew
I was afraid you'd go away, too
Little girl you've got to forget the past
And learn to forgive me
I promise to try -- but it feels like a lie
Don't let memory play games with your mind
She's a faded smile frozen in time
I'm still hanging on -- but I'm doing it wrong
Can't kiss her goodbye -- but I promise to try
:'(isn't that sad. Madonna's mom died when she was only 5 :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :( :(

what's your favorite madonna song(s)?????
Subject: Re: Madonna's song about her mom
As I explained before, if I had the chance to choose, I'd probably pick a CD of 97-2002 over a CD of 83-97 exclusive (or whenever she started singing, I can't remember off hand). Single favourite track? I don't think I could, though Frozen was a cracker.

I got the earliest date of her starting out wrong. Therefore I had to modify to even out the dates over these 20 years to include the first decade worth of stuff, and then the second - and, I'm sure, the third, coming up.

I don't expect her to be up for an Oscar for acting anytime soon, but when she plays a role suited to her (A League of Their Own, Desparately Seeking Susan) she does ok.
And Merry Christmas all. :)

I forgot about Evita, and I even have the soundtrack (no, I'm not gay :) ). If you think about who Evita was before she was married, you might find that Madonna is more suited than you thought at first. But I agree, a movie based on a popular Broadway drama/musical is not where most people expect to see Madonna.

you're right about evita. i was thinking that after i posted my reply.

Even the "early years" stuff? I also thought she sang/performed "Everybody" in Euro clubs as far back as 1982. That pre-dated the 1983 album, Madonna. She also did that brief stint as the drummer of The Breakfast Club...

when i say she stated in '83 i meant her MAJOR music career(first cd). she started the music thing in '79 though.

That's a career ??? Media wh:Pre is a "MAJOR music career" ??? It's a spectacle for sure. I bought into it too :) :D ;D It's working for Spear Britney, but I prefer the original one 8)
BTW, did they even know what a "cd" was back in '83 ???

I must admit I did like her earlier music, but from 1990 on she just flat out sucked, in my opinion. I also didn't like how she conducted herself in the music videos...just too much sex being thrown my way, kinda like an old-school Aguilera...
Laserdiscs were invented in the late 70s, but about 1985 I think they had started making CDs...

I've just realised what accounts for 69 occurences of the word Jimmy, hehe. The only question left is, who in the name of blue... cheese... is Jimmy?
Methinks 'twas rhetorical.

I agree RC. I loved Madonna in the 80's for her controversy and the cute bubbly music. After the 80's it does kind of go downhill. She tried so hard in the 90's to be shocking, when it just seemed to come naturally to her in the 80's.I think what puts me off of her is that she has reinvented herself so many times and so you wonder, who is she really? (Who's that girrllll..lol). This would not be necessary for a truly talented performer. Look at the Stones, and Aerosmith. Their images really haven't changed over the years and they are still putting music out there. And it isn't necessary for a female performer to reinvent herself to stay on top. Look at Aretha Franklin...as far as I know she is the same lady she has always been and is still the Queen. Just my opinion, of course...diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks. ;D
