- i was very pleased when i heard Deeper and Deeper and saw the video for it.
- i like it because... well, quite honestly... its vacuous... much like her
- early material. I can't stand it when madonna tries to be deep and profound
- like in that "this used to be my playground" bullshit. madonna is about
- surface... don't expect to "understand" anything she does. Even if there
- is a message there, who cares?!?! i'm sure it's nothing important. Madonna
- is at her best when she gets into the groove like a virgin or like some
- material girl who can thank her lucky star that enough people give a
- fuck when she expresses herself through erotica on some given religious
- holiday even when doing so would not be in vogue.
