Madonna is versatile, but she is also evolving. It took about 15 years to come to this musical highlight. If you follow her art in chronological order, it makes more sense, where she's been through in life and artistically. After all the sexual, religious and controversial things she's done, this was a huge switch, but perfectly fitting and ahead of time. Madonna is an amazing songwriter, which should be more appreciated. This song is in my top three of best Madonna songs. The 'Ray of Light' album, which this is from, might be her best.
She has so many less known but still impressive masterpieces - Bad Girl, Oh Father, The Power of Goodbye, Time Stood Still, Spotlight, I'll Remember, Masterpiece, Ghosttown, Rescue Me, Bedtime Story, You'll See etc
Power of Goodbye and Ghost town are two i love
Bedtime Story is so impressive and artful it fucked my mind when I was 16, back in 1996 when the video came out
@@jackjackson3769 exactly those are my two best. Just wow
This album really put electronica music on the map, it was a massive hit
SuperGreat reaction about an Amazing Song 👍
Electronic music was massive already though in the dance music era that took over the 90e
@@popland1977
Right
Yes it did with her brilliance!!
It was already on the map..and gone around the world..she just dipped her toe into it .
She’s been going for 4 decades and still more to come. Her back catalogue is 24 carat gold!
Her "'Ray of Light" album depicts her spiritual/philosophical journey after the birth of her child. I would argue that her previous albums explored desire (sexual and emotional) much more and that this album shows growth away from 'base' desires to a more self-reflexive and spiritual self. This album is a masterpiece and her most highly acclaimed. The archetype/energy she embodied in the album is that of a wise and maternal goddess.
Madonna is a creative genius. You're so right, no one can really cover this song, that this is a glimpse into her deepest soul. So much depth and mystery in this masterpiece.
Madonna is a master of the ballads. You'll see, Crazy for you, Oh Father, Look of love (always overlooked) Take A Bow, Ghosttown, Power of Goodbye, Live to Tell etc etc
This video (and music) is a masterpiece!
Madonna catalogue is so HUGE and WONDERFUL never ending....
This song, along with the album Ray Of Light came out in 1998, it was inspired after the birth of her first daughter. So her sound evolved into this spiritual approach and her influence with Kabballah. It was a unique new sound she brought into her repertoire, and just like you, people were amazed by this, even the non-Madonna fan back in '98 when they discovered this.
One of my favorite Madonna songs. Underrated in my opinion.
Under-rated how, exactly? What chart or "rating" is out there that that make you think thinks this is "under-rated?" It got to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100, which was based on radio airplay/popularity at the time. If it had hit #1 would that have made it sufficiently "rated"? Or would you still have said this was "under-rated"? I think most Madonna fans think this is one of her best songs so it's not "under-rated."
@@jluebs Nit=picking bullshit. I meant the song doesn't get as much respect, generally speaking, as some of her other songs.
Underrated to me in the sense that it is my 2nd favorite Madonna song after Like A Prayer. Most people probably could not say that. I think it's the combination again of her and producer Patrick Leonard who worked on this song and Like A Prayer.
Underrated? It was a HUGE hit and remained a global hit for months. And still it's one of her most famous songs.
She turned 40 in 1998 when this came out. This album still holds up now. You hear it and you don't think a decade.
Again ...gotta love this woman. What other female artist has so many looks..so many different on trends that moved with the times and exceptional production values . Please play RAIN !!!!! XX
Boy, "The power of goodbye" is a must. It's almost like a continuation of this song
no its not! Power Of Goodbye was a great SERMON.... but melody was just okay. Almost as forced as Nothing Really Matter which is another Sermon. But both single aged to become better than it was back then.
Yes
Wow....This video is unbelievable! I was there when it came out in 1998. I was already a diehard fan. At that time, I was so into listening to what music she was putting out. The videos where definitely a bonus and great. As I watch these videos today, I get to watch her videos with others perspectives and reactions. Her performance in this video is mesmerizing and brilliant. Watching her move and interpret this song on video is sublime. I guarantee what you see from her in her best videos, nobody can replicate.
The whole album is amazing! Every track is filled with interesting sounds and production
React to Madonna "Secret" it's a beautiful r&b from the 90's, totally different
been a lifelong fan since the beginning of her career when I was a little kid but this is my all time favorite era from her. She was just creatively at her peak having just had her first child. The production is still perfection that has aged so well and her vocals perfectly produced over it. To your question she does actually have a big hand in producing. She was famously called a bitch at the begining of her career for taking herself so seriously and wanting control over her message and her image and her performances which was still unheard of for a female pop act. It's all her. People love to discredit her because she doesn't have the big Whitney or Mariah kind of voice, but I think what she has done in her career takes far more creativity and work than the singers who were simply born with an incredible voice to sing songs someone else writes and produces.
She is a legend 🙌
M said she was inspired by the movie "the sheltering sky", it was about a couple that went to the desert in Africa to try to resolve marriage problems, if you look at the poster of the film you can clearly see the first scene where M floats in the desert. Other inspirations came from Martha Graham who M met in NY at the dancing school and the ballet piece was called "Lamentation". The interpretation of the 3 Madonnas is likely to be the triple goddess Hecate, a sacred female in Greek mythology, and she was accompanied by barking dogs.... the 3 figures represent the virgin, the mother and the crone... there is a lot more about this video and there are analysis that can be found online....
Interesting. For some reason, the image of Madonna against the background of the desert in the video has always reminded me of Joni Mitchell's haunting album jacket to 'HEJIRA.' (Also, 'Hejira' means journey.)
I will be back when ur back with more Madonna 😀
I feel like she's in the desert of her own mind, and she's addressing different aspects of herself, in. The video you only see her and versions of her morphing and changing.
Very interesting interpretation, definitely makes me appreciate the song more!
Oh Father ;is a Madonna ballad you would love, with the instrumental and the psychology behind the lyrics.
Wow! I thoroughly enjoyed this reaction! And I didn't know it, but I kind of needed that discussion at the end! No lie!
Wow ! So glad you picked this amazing track to react to. When this track dropped in 1996/97 it was an event to see Madonna reinventing herself yet again with her ominous goth look and stellar production by William Orbit.
The message is clear and her presence and vocal delivery is impeccable! Great reaction Anton! You’re incredible!
It came out in February 1998 as the lead single for her "Ray Of Light" album which followed in March 1998.
It actually dropped in 1998. In 1996 she was still in her Evita era.
A masterpiece
No greater artist than Madonna.
The whole album that this song is from , "Ray of Light", is incredible.
✨❤️🔥✨ Madonna is a co-writer and producer on most of her music, and although she’s not a composer in the sense of a Prince, people forget or don’t research, or honestly assume she’s just a pop singer because she’s a female artist, and people lovvvvvve to diminish the skill and talent of powerful women. Especially when they’re also sexual. There are many songs in her catalogue she wrote entirely herself, then brought to musicians/collaborators to build the instrumentation, and many of her greatest songs are written with just one collaborator, with her either writing poetry and hooks to music in her head and singing it in the studio to begin writing the melody with the composer, or the collaborator/composer presents music in the mood she’s interested in and she writes the lyrics and vocal melody over that. In many cases, according to her genius collaborators like Patrick Leonard, Stephen Bray and William Orbit, she wrote the lyrics, vocal melody and hooks to many of her greatest songs within a few hours.
The reason for this album being so spiritual and sincere was exactly when Madonna started to study Caballa, around that time is when she had her first child ( watch My substitute for love video and song, it summarised so well how she felt about money, fame and her new way of seeing things ) around this time is when she married guy Ritchie and got pregnant of his son, she was turning 40 which it is a change of pace ( I've been there )
We need more MADONNA.
I really enjoy your REACTIONS to her videos. You dissect them in an intelligent way. Some reactions by other folks are almost painful to watch. I enjoy your analyzation. 💜
I was in my late teens when this came out. The time of first love and heartbreak. I used to listen to this song a lot (although I was not a Madonna fan at this point) as a way to recognise my feelings at the time.
The sound is based on TripHop. F.e. Björk/Massive Attack/Tricky/Portishead are posterchildren for this UK sound & movement (based in Bristol).
From the Ray of Light album which for me is my favourite Madonna album.
She does have a hand in it, Pat Leonard talks about her talent in regards to composing. melodies asf.
Hi Anton,
Fascinating analysis of the song Frozen and Madonna.
Also thank you for giving us a deep insight into your being. You are right we are all frozen in some sense. I really didn’t expect such a well thought out interpretation of this song and the visionary artist Madonna.
Great reaction and I feel enlightened after listening to your thoughts 😊. Thank you 💛.
Re watched this again.... i just love this album and track..
She was just so phenomenal at this time . So original but so surreal and creative.. ... she fits into a fantasy mixed with dreams.
William Orbit really was so amazing with his sound at this time
Madonna is the reason so many women are taken seriously in the music industry today. There were plenty of female artists before her that were paving the way but when Madonna broke through and found a global audience like never before, the industry had to pay attention. Her work ethic, ability to absorb influences and her desire to shape-shift and evolve her sound is so impressive for an artist at her level of success. To me “frozen” represents the antithesis of what Madonna represents, she has never been frozen in her artistry / vision but always willing to open herself to new sound, new ideas, new song writing partners, and new audiences. That’s incredibly risky once you’ve made it to the top. More often artists settle into a predictability or comfort factor to do what they know, sounds familiar and have already done. Madonna’s artistic vision remains unpredictable even into her 4th decade. Although plenty of fantastic female performers have risen over the past few decades, there will never be another visionary risk taker at this level on a global scale.
Divine mystical character 👏👏 I like that description of her portrayal here. The Ray of Light era marked an entire new scope for Madonna’s talents. Her creativity on full display. She was exploring The Kabbalah and these tracks were influenced by that study. Awesome reaction 👏👏
Awesome reaction as usual. Madonna’s slow tempo or ballad songs to me are her best. Listen to ‘Live To Tell’ Yep back in the 80’s lol. Fav song. Or from this era ‘Drowned World/Substitute For Love. This song Frozen just blew me away, especially working together with Leonard & Orbit.…. Love it!
Hope you do more Madonna. There is so much more to discover. You would probably like the entire Ray of Light album. To cover some of her range, Secret, La Isla Bonita, Deeper and Deeper, Live to Tell, Human Nature, God Control - great places to start!
Deeper and deeper! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
How she incorporated EDM into pop for ROL LP and made it her own was truly breathtaking n ground breaking!
She has Moon conjunct Ascendant and also 12th House Sun, maybe that's the case? Since you mention the 8th House I feel like this song in particular touch on a lot of 12th House energy as well.
Another great review, Anton!
Enjoyed listening to your astrology stuff and how you relate a persons star sign back to them in a way. Coming from a psychology background too. I like it. I assumed many psychology professionals would disregard something like astrology.
Enjoying your reactions mate.
All the way in Perth, Australia.
Watch any performance from Madonnas the confessions tour. It's amazing. One different performance from that tour is I love new York. Pure rock
this is the album that finally got her the overdue Grammy!!!! beautiful production
Please react to Rain or Bad Girl…. Both songs and videos are A1
The video was directed by Chris Cunningham who is known also for more terrifying videos like those by Aphex Twin, "Windowlicker" and "Come to Daddy".
Cunningham filmed Come To Daddy near my old house in Thamesmead, which was then one of the most run down estates in the country. It was a creepy looking, bleak place, and the video really captures that so well.
Totally agreed with your comment about the authenticity and how no one could cover this. Really good reaction. Shame to hear you’re taking a break from Madonna reactions because they’re very good.
I think I love everything about this song! The lyrics, the music,Madonna, the meritorious video, it’s like when you being in a dream. This song one of the top songs in the music world in my opinion. Thank you Anton 😌
Absolutely beautiful heart touching song. ❤️. Love Madonna. I would always try to sing along with this song .
She's a big classical music fan that's why these instrumentals that you smartly noted comes from that. Also, it may help for you to know she's a typical alpha Leo♌, her rising sign is in Aquarius♒ and moon sign in wait... Virgo♍. Go figure 🤔
This is the reaction that lead me to your channel and from the view counts of your Madonna reactions Vs other artists it seems that I'm not alone in wanting to see more of it. Some of her songs that you'd probably enjoy: Live to Tell, Oh Father, The Power of Goodbye and You'll See.
I watched this because I love this song and it come up after another reaction, but I was also waiting to watch Gabor Mate's film "The Wisdom of Trauma" and this was really deep, was amazing to listen to this interpretation and everything else that was shared.
I remember vividly the video premiere of this song on MTV back 1998. It was really huge.
This song has a beautiful haunting melody. The music video features Madonna as a witch-like who shapeshifts into a flock of birds and a black dog. It received an MTV Video Music Award for "Best Special Effects" in 1998.
One of my favourite Madonna songs
_"unfortunately about 90% of the world do not open their heart"_ *_"I feel like that's the most Madonna song"_*
Well, I guess I'll have to subscribe. I really really appreciate when someone has the sensibility to see the beauty and the truth behind a song that was made from the heart. This song is definitely one of them.
I enjoyed our little chat about astrology :)
Omg!! great!! Please react to “Future Lovers” from Confessions Tour 👏🏻🙏🏻♥️
I love your deep meanings and thought process into madonna, please react to (oh father) it's about how Madonna's father reacted to Madonna's mothers death ( who was all so named madonna ) when she was 6 years old , its through Madonna's childs eye.
O and your beauty in mind and looks is very high in my eyes.
I have been a big fan of Madonna and this song and video is one of her best! I also listened to your reaction and your psychology background and I actually learned things from you that hit hard to my core, Thank you, 🤔
Please check out ‘Oh Father’ it’s very deep!
There's so many ways to interpret this, which is the beauty of music. But to me it feels like inner dialogue. Telling herself you have to try, or your heart will starve, freeze, die. The transforming from different life forms representing the ever transforming heart and how we love.
Would so love to go back to '98 and experience this for the first time again. I remember it silenced the room for a bit, because we couldn't believe it was M. She's incredible. Today, I still get blown away listening to ROL.
Such a beautiful song and video and one way or the other at some point of our life’s were frozen it’s so real this song hits you up ❤️
My favorite I watched so many reactions.. I love this song omg!!
The Power of Goodbye- Madonna
I think you should react to her Ray of Light album. It’s a masterpiece.
I have the heart of an empath. It doesn't matter how hard I try to close my heart, it remains eternally open and I bleed for other people's pain. I was told once, it's the blessing and the curse of being an empath. We just can't freeze our hearts I guess. I have wished a million times.
Love this era especially from Madonna , this album is fantastic.. maybe her most successful in the 90s 00s.
William Orbit was huge at the time. He had big production on the album.
i wouldn't suggest you venture in her live performances yet... there's still too much of her recording music to discover.
This song and music video is so mesmerizing.
It's beyond art!
She's very creative and surrounds herself with the most talented people. The guy who directed the video is very talented.
This is madonnas best song, i love the video so much!!!
i love all ur reactions, especially the ones to Madonna.
Magnificent in every aspect ❣️
Best thing she ever did.
Hahhaha! You! So perfect!
I'm a Madonna fan since 1983. I thought about doing psychology, but it was not enough for me, so I did international relations and social psychology (now have a Ph.D in Politics). Almost all of my childhood friends are psychologists now, the others politics or education/human resources.
And I did astrology, started in Italy when I was over there. What you said about archetypes is the thing that I've always thought that astrology was about , since the early 1990s. I've blown away psychologists and married couples that I've never met before just by reading their charts in parties that I attended. (Mind you, I'm a Scorpio with just Saturn and Chiron above the horizontal level.)
Nevertheless, this is irrelevant. What I wanted to say is this:
You have a worldwide audience of Madonna fans and your analysis of her has so far been the best I've heard. Why would you quit on that? Madonna is the source of a lot of pop culture... Just saying.
The imagery is beautiful, as well as the song.
My favourite of Madonna's songs
Excellent! Thank you.
In this video she is representing the ancient greek Goddess of witches HECATE.
She is a triple & one Goddess, she dress in black, her animals are crows and black dogs,
and also have the Keys of the Other World ("you are the key" she sings).
So, she says "open your heart" and "give yourself to me" so you can be unfrozen ...
My 2nd favorite song, best video EVER
Just found out you have two channels 😻. I'm following this one too. Keep it up wit the great reactions💪
Madonna is very spiritually inclined, including astrology (she's a leo I believe), catholicism and ancient judaism. She's always been very driven and has a fire within that she doesn't know where it comes from. I think she's both incredibly strict (almost masochistically so) and seems to have a powerful desire for openness, transparency and freedom. Her lyrics are always very to the point, direct. She would revisit the theme of "Frozen" much later in the song "Inside Out" (2015), another plea for the other to let his "walls crumble to the ground". Interestingly, a famous Italian-American scholar, who is also of Italian heritage, was an early fan of Madonna and also very much into astrology and archetypes, Camille Paglia is her name, who saw in Madonna a kind of sexual primal force of life and nature, mixed with the drastic and controlled ambition associated with the desire for success and accomplishment.
Well, Paglia may have done some good work on Madonna early on, but Madonna called her out during her (M's) Billboard Woman of the Year speech. And rightly so; Paglia is an anti-feminist hack and a Madonna wannabe in academia, imv.
@@moonstone1159 Paglia never criticised Madonna for "objectifying herself sexually", as Madonna stupidly claimed in that maudlin speech. She was instead celebrating her sexualised persona, contrary to parochial feminists of the time, who indeed were criticising Madonna for that very (stupid) reason. Paglia criticised Madonna later on for other reasons and she's no hack. She's a brilliant cultural and art commentator.
@@jaranowska I never said she criticizedd M for her "sexualized persona." I will give Paglia credit on a Cultural Studies persepective for looking into Madonna, but like many self-described "feminists" on the right, Paglia's attitude toward feminism amounts to the undermining of women and the propping up of a certain type of patriarchy. She is a hack, imv. In fact, she's not taken seriously by feminists scholars, in general. Male and right wing scholars, on the other hand, really like her, so she does have her fans. Still, I was quite surprised Madonna criticized Paglia directly in that speech -- which, although well-deserved on some level (!) -- was not a good look for Madonna in the long run because it looked a bit petty or vengeful. I think she coud have said what she had to say without singling anyone out. In any case, we just have to disagree on Paglia and her work.
@@moonstone1159 Madonna should have singled out people of Gloria Steinem's creed, or the crazy feminists who literally tore up copies of her Sex book at a feminist convention in 1992 as part of a ridiculous ritual of purification. Paglia is for the legalization of drugs and sex work, and is a Bernie Sanders supporter, and you think she's right-wing? She's an intellectual first, a feminist second. That's her own words. No one has any authority to claim a person is or is not a feminist. One can claim that for oneself (or reject it). But yes, we can certainly agree to disagree.
@@jaranowska I stand by my all of comments and assessments of Paglia. She's a hack. I'm aware of her voting proclivities.
This music video is a masterpiece of art. I remember I watched this back in 1998 and I loved the concept of that video. A very deep spirituality and haunting at the same time..
I suggest you to watch another video "Nothing Really Matters." Another piece of art of her video..
the concept of this album was the best made for Madonna... I think this was the best album of Madonna..
This is my favorite Madonna song! 🥰
Here we are, in 2022, and people just start discovering the massive power of FROZEN. It is not a "ballad". It is a piece of modern classical music. Face it.
One of my favorit songs from Madonna
My favorite video of hers!!
This was a great analysis on the spot based upon hearing the song. An unique and deep point of view from biological and psychological perspective. Thank for sharing your thoughts!
Culte ! a huge hit ! Madonna is so visionary !
One of my favorite songs by her
Mesmerizing!☮️❤️
One of the most unique artists of all time
