SONG OF THE WEEK: La Isla Bonita

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of "True Blue" (1986), the song of week is "LA ISLA BONITA" (The Beautiful Island).

It was released as the albums final single. The song was originally written for Michael Jackson, but was later accepted by Madonna, in which she wrote the lyrics with Patrick Leonard. The song is noted to be Madonna's first song to have a Spanish influence with arrangement of Cuban drums and Spanish guitar, maracas, harmonicas and mix of synthesized and real drumming.

The songs achieved worldwide popularity, topping in countries such as Austria, Canada, France, Germany and Switzerland. It also became Madonna's fourth number-one single in the United Kingdom, giving her a record for the most number one-singles by a female artist. In the United States, it reached number four.

In the Studio

We will not stop to hear, MADONNA is in the studio and rumors fuse. According to our friend Robert Venegas , which is always well informed about the Madonna, what is happening currently in the studio will make many fans happy.


Apparently MADONNA would have refused to work with producers known as RedOne although Live Nation asked him. The producers selected are almost all unknown, MADONNA reportedly wrote most of the texts from his pen. Joe Henry's brother in law but also producer of the game is for two reasons.

A title would be saved, it would be a demo Diagram Of The Heart entitled "WAY BACK HOME". The title begins with the violin and the piano to finish on the dance music.

In addition MADONNA is inspired by Beth Ditto (Gossip), Jessica 6, The Sound of Arrow.

Output is planned for November, it all depends on the work done in the studio.
