A Lost Classic

"Dear Jessie," a whimsical, Beatlesque European single from 1990 is by far one of Madonna's highest musical achievements, and possibly one of the best singles ever, right up on the list with "Strawberry Fields"/"Penny Lane" and "Hey Jude"/"Revolution." She would have done much better to release this in America rather than "Keep It Together."

From roses raining on love parades to pink elephants & lemonade, Madonna created a dream world in stark contrast to the haunting, bitter, dissonant B-side, the sarcastic, "Till Death Do Us Part." Add the 1983 classic "Holiday," and you can't go wrong.

IT DOESN'T REALLY SO BAD

I'M DISAGREEMENT FOR THE FIRST OPINION BUT I'M NOT TO FIGHT IT'S A FREE TO WRITE ANY WORD BUT I THINK THAT "DEAR JASSIE" HAVE A ALL FANTASY AND MAGIC DREAMS THAT ANYONE WANT'S TO HAVE, I'D LIKE SO MUCH .

Pink Elephants and Lemonade

This song is highly overlooked and degraded, but it is a pretty decent Madonna song. I agree that is the video for this song was atroucious, but the song is okay. This song does kind of fit in with Like A Prayer, in the sense Madonna opening up to her childhood. The cd here is okay, but there is no remix, no unreleased b-side, or anything spectacular.

1. Dear Jessie (Album Version): This song is exactly like the Lp Version, except it does not fade into "Oh Father".



2. Till Death Do Us Part: Madonna's comeback song to former husband Sean Penn. This song goes well with Dear Jessie, but could have been more hardcore, if it's a comeback song.



3. Holdiay (12" Version): The full length version of Holiday.
