It's 30 years since 'I'll Remember' was released as the lead single to the soundtrack of the film 'Wild Honors'. The song was written by Patrick Leonard and Richard Page with lyrics later reworked by Madonna and aimed to redirect the focus onto the music following the controversy surrounding Madonna's work of the previous two years. It was well received by critics and earned nominations at both the Grammys and Golden Globes. Commercially, the song was a big hit, reaching #1 in Canada and Italy, #2 in the US and Top 10 in Australia, Finland, Sweden and the UK. The music video was directed by Alek Keshishian, who also directed 'Wild Honors' as well as Madonna's documentary 'Truth or Dare', and was visually similar to that of previous single 'Rain'. 30 years on, what are your thoughts and memories of 'I'll Remember'? |

For some reason I practically ignored this until it really hit me about 2-3 years ago. What a beauty

For some reason I practically ignored this until it really hit me about 2-3 years ago. What a beauty Same for me, really! Other than when I listened to ‘Something to Remember’, it wasn’t a song I returned to much on its own, but it’s such a tender song with really powerful lyrics; I love how it looks upon a negative experience and takes positive lessons from it. I view the song as being about a failed relationship but instead of regretting that it’s over, it’s more thankful that it existed in the first place. The William Orbit remixes are great, I know we view ‘Bedtime Story’ as the blueprint for the ‘Ray of Light’ era but the influence can be traced back to here, what with the Patrick Leonard penned, reflective lyrics matched with ambient Orbit produced production. |
