MADONNA FRIDAY: KEEP IT TOGETHER

The 6th and final single off of the Like a Prayer album, Keep It Together. The very first Madonna single of the 1990s, the song talks about the importance of family, and despite Madonna's confessional stance at the time admiting that her childhood was less than peachy as far as relationships with her family, she expresses that they did in fact help make her who she was and that bond cannot be broken. Keep It Together returned Madonna to the top 10, peaking at #8, after Oh Father was her first since Holiday to miss that mark (#20). However, in Australia the song was released as a Double-A side with Vogue, resulting in a #1 hit Down Under. It also reached #1 on the Hot Dance Club Play charts in the U.S. There was no official video for Keep It Together, but upon the release of Madonna's documentary Truth or Dare, video chanels began playing her performance from the Blond Ambition Tour, which was the final encore of the show. Based on A Clockwork Orange, the number used Fosse-style choreography as depicted Madonna and her dancers as a tightknit clan. Enjoy the clip below. Happy Madonna Friday!!!
