MADONNA FRIDAY: NOTHING REALLY MATTERS

Madonna is always searching for a new way to express herself. Her critically acclaimed, commercial smash Ray of Light was her most spiritual album to date. Taking influences from kabbalah and inspiration from her newly born daughter, Lourdes, Madonna's ROL album was very emotional. The song Nothing Really Matters looks into Madonna's past obsession with fame and fortune and how, once you find love, all of that seems less important. The song was released in 1999 with basically no promotion from Madonna's record label in the US, resulting in her lowest charting on the Hot 100 (#93) but reaching #1 on the Hot Dance Club Play Chart and #27 in Singles Sales. The song was however a top 10 hit in the UK. The video is visually stunning and one of Madonna's most creative. Set in what looks to be a Japanese geisha house, Madonna is wearing a kimono and carrying a large... um..... well, sack. Different people are shown carrying the same thing around, representing possibly a baby or the ideal of love. Who knows for sure.There is also a section that features butoh dance moves. It's weird and I love it! Anyway, enjoy Madonna's Nothing Really Matters.
