It's 25 years since 'Nothing Really Matters' was released as the fifth and final single from 'Ray of Light'. It was written with long-time collaborator Patrick Leonard and later produced with William Orbit and Marius De Vries. The song was inspired by the birth of Madonna's daughter, Lourdes, and explores the effects motherhood had on her outlook of fame and life. It became a Top 10 hit in Canada, Finland, Greece, New Zealand and UK, including #1 in Hungary and Spain, however its lack of airplay and delayed physical release in the US resulted in a #93 peak on the Billboard Hot 100, Madonna's lowest position to date. The music video was directed by Johan Renck and drew influence from Arthur Golden's novel 'Memoirs of a Geisha', portraying Madonna in red kimono as she dances to her own unconventional choreography.

Great song!
UK-wise did really quite well for her as a 5th single so far after the era began
It's such a amazing song. I just love it a lot.
Always loved the song and the lyrics !!
The tour made me revisit it a lot last year!
The remix on FEL is also incredible.
Another gem of a song from an already incredible era
This was the era Madonna could do no wrong. Great track and loved some of the remixes.
