• When I have to choose one song from
all the gorgeous songs Madonna ever
made i have to choose ‘Impressive Instant‘.
From the ‘Music‘ album, the first album
I bought from queen of pop: MADONNA!
It is different from all the song i’ve had
ever heard before. her sound, her lyrics
and her voice combines together on
this song. wow!
When she performed it live during the
‘Drowned World Tour‘ she completed my
emotions and fantasies during listening
to this song. raw, extremely sexy and
different/daring!
Impressive instant, one song, my song.

• Like many others out there, I love ALL her music, but for me, a track that i’ll always hold very close is Ray Of Light.
I remember it standing out on the album when I first heard it – and I’d never heard anything like that before with such an electronic feel, or the way her vocals were produced – my skin would tingle every time she screamed the last “And I feel…..” I was blown away by how amazing she looked in the video and how out of control her dancing was!
I’d just turned 18 when it was released, and was going through a hard time, struggling with my sexuality, knowing how taboo it was to be gay cos I grew up in such a strict Catholic family – All I’d wish for is to wake up and not like boys, but that never happened – it wasn’t long before my close friend George and I came out to each other and we spent every saturday night at our first gay club…I still never felt comfortable with being the way I was and knew I would have to change, but also didn’t understand why I LOVED the people and the music, and I always came home feeling so happy….
One night the DJ played the Calderone mix of Ray Of Light – I got to the dancefloor and nearly jumped out of my skin with excitement! It felt like that song shot right through me – I was dancing, I LOVED it, I LOVED the people, the atmosphere….and I don’t know what happened, but something clicked that night – I stopped denying who I was and felt the biggest rush, the most amazing sense of release – EVERY word made so much more sense to me….and when she sung “And I feel, like I just got home….” I really did feel it… and I even got a little teary – cos I finally accepted who I was, and I knew it was only the beginning….
