 Go Deeper And Deeper With Madonna And This Disco Classic! June 29, 2003
7 out of 9 found this review helpful
1992 was turning out to be a rather strange year for Madonna. She had released the album Erotica which suffered from poor sales, shifting just 5 million copies worldwide. She had also shocked the world with the book Sex, which was a publishing and marketing phenomenon selling more than 1 million copies worldwide. In December 1992, Madonna released the second single from the Erotica album. The song was called Deeper and Deeper, and it peaked at No.6 i the UK and spent nine weeks on the chart. The song was Madonna's first single not to go Top 5 in the UK since 1987, when "The Look Of Love" peaked at No.9.
Deeper And Deeper begins instantaneously with a classy beat and piano introduction. Madonna sings "Deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper...sweeter and sweeter and sweeter and sweeter," before breaking out into the joyous chorus, "I can't help falling in love, I go deeper and deeper the further I go. Kisses sent from heaven above, they get sweeter and sweeter the more that I know." The first verse then begins where Madonna sings, "When you know the notes to sing, you can sing most anything. That's what my mama told me. Round and round and round you go, when you find love you'll always know. I let my father mould me." Madonna then sings the bridge, "Daddy couldn't be all wrong (I'm not gonna let you slip away, I'm gonna be there). And my mama made me learn this song (You're gonna bring your love to me, I'm gonna get you) That's why..." And then the Queen on Pop works her way into the fabulous chorus, before going onto her second verse, then the bridge and the chorus once more. There's then a section in the song where Madonna's vocals are excellent and she sings, "Someone said that romance was dead, and I believed it instead of remembering what my mama told me, let my father mold me, then you tried to hold me, you remind me what they said. This feeling inside, I can't explain, but my love is alive and I'm never gonna hide it again!" The song then takes on a Spanish feel with guitars and maracas for a great instrumental. The chorus then kicks in again, and Madonna wails her heart out as the song dies down and the backing singers take over.
The video to Deeper And Deeper is one of Madonna's best in my opinion. We first see some German guys talking crazy, before some balloons are released into the night sky, and we see Madonna driving in her car. She enters a club, and dances the night away on the dancefloor in some classy outfit. She also sits in a room and eats a banana with her girlfriends whilst watching a man do gymnastics in his underwear! Very strange, but funny all the same. All in all, this is a fantastic song from Madonna which - whilst was not a very big hit - is a great party song, and will get even the oldest of oldies up on their feet!

While looking for a copy of the latest Madonna single "Die Another Day", I came upon this CD-Maxi, for her "Erotica" single "Deeper & Deeper". Deciding to skip the newbie, I bought this carefree dance pop gem. A disco pop stormer, the track itself is extremely catchy, pulling you into the groove and making you feel the song. The mixes are excellent, and provided by Shep Pettibone and David Morales. Shep provides the main extended mix and a more club thumping "Deep Makeover" mix. The other main mix by Morales is quite good, opening strong and taking the listener on a "Klub" ready ride. Secondary dubs were provided by both mixers, while I prefer "David's Love Dub", I enjoy both mixes. The last track is a short beats sampling, not too bad, but not anything special either. The main draw are the main mixes, great for an already wonderful tune. Great Madonna classic.

A great dance song with some good remixes! Some say the "Erotica" era was Madonna's worst...I beg to differ! Deeper and Deeper is my personal favorite pre-Ray-of-Light Madonna song.
