      I’m always in awe of whoever styled her videos in this era - the outfits were beyond mere glamour or looking pretty or sexy,, nothing extraneous or expensive for the sake of it, no fifty outfit changes. The house, the single lamp-post by the beach, the parquet floor, Even the details of chess pieces were perfect for this video. Her Creative collaborators listened to this album before they started the video projects and thought: ‘this is something special, let’s do it justice.’

    The way the song starts off cold and electronic, transforms into an orchestral arrangement then finishes with a single acoustic guitar is stunning.

    The Power of Good-Bye by Madonna is a hauntingly beautiful anthem that captures the strength in letting go. The song resonates with the idea that sometimes, the most powerful thing we can do is to say goodbye. It's about reclaiming one's strength and self-worth after a relationship ends. The lyrics reflect a sense of liberation, showing that goodbye isn't just an end, but a powerful beginning. In Madonna's hands, the act of walking away becomes an empowering statement of resilience and personal growth.

  • @tommynerosullivan1853

    “Learn to say ‘GOODBYE’!” Cutting out anything harmful & toxic relationships are vital to our emotional & physical wellbeing. Madonna sings this ballad straight from her heart. “I yearn to say ‘Goodbye’!”

    For every friendship, for every lover, for every family member I've lost, in death or living this song is gospel. It gives strenght to say goodbye to toxic relationships and it helps to understand why others ghost you or say goodbye. The power of goodbye is not the cold shoulder, ghosting or neglect. It's the freedom to move on without any weight on your shoulders. This song will forever be in my life because it gives me the courage to even say to my own son "goodbye" because it was better for the both of us. In Dutch we have a saying: soft approach gives festering wounds. Better to cut clean. To move on or to start up from again.

Her ability to move with the times and continually reinvent herself is unrivalled

    Ever since I can remember, I can always think of a Madonna song that correlates with an event or occurrence in my life. She literally is the SOUNDTRACK to my life. I'm in my early 40's and it still is happening. I can't imagine her not being there. I sometimes wonder if she knows that so many people feel the same way I do. She truly IS one of the very last true Superstars of this world.

      Good Evening This is one of my all time songs by Madonna. During the time when she released this album I was a member of church where I endured emotional and spiritual abuse and had 3 physical altercations with 3 of the bible talk leaders. I did have some members who did provide me emotional support but I suffered from depression. After being in that organization for 6 years, I decided to leave and I was blessed with 2 partail scholarships and after being in college for 10 years due to me being a part time student I graduated and this song along with Aretha's A Rose Is Still A Rose gave me strength to move on.

      @@skurinski tbh she had already had tons of plastic surgery here. All celebrities have tons of surgery, the difference is that people only realize it if it looks unnatural. Only when Madonna started injecting fillers in her face in the 2010s' people started to realize she was looking odd. Prior to that, most fillers weren't FDA approved so using them wasn't really an option. So when the majority of fillers we know today were approved, a ton of celebrities jumped on the trend hoping to look younger in a non intrusive way. What people didn't know about this new cosmetic enhancement however, were the long time effects. Fillers don't go away, just migrate to other areas of your face, getting you that pillow face. Unfortunately she continued with the fillers for a few years, and although she has tryied to reverse their effect by dissolving them, it's impossible to completely dissolve them since they get too deep into your tissues. So technically she didn't even ruin herself with plastic surgery since when she was only on plastic surgery she was looking great, blame it on the fillers! Fortunately her new facelift helped her a ton, although I gotta say; Her new cheek implants are too huge to look proportional and her brow lift is just so depressing, her old brows had an amazing shape and really gave her an iconic, unique and memorable look. The difference in her face when Madame X was released and now in 2021 is just too crazy, how much she has changed in a two year span.
      I hope in her next era when she changes her face again, she get a more natural look and remove those fake cheeks 👻

      Madonna looks amazing with black hair 🙌. It's the colour that suits her the most. There's also a beautiful contrast between her pale skin and dark hair, not to mention that her eyes are brighter when she wears black hair. It's also interesting that she made her best music as a brunette.

    She’s a beautiful lady and really suits dark hair so much as it brings out her pretty eyes. Another off Madonna’s amazingly beautiful songs.

    “The Power of Goodbye” - making me clean up my soul since 1998. Thanks Madonna for showing me how to truly feel music. Btw. I’m sobbing as every single time I listen to this precious song 💚

      As a child when this song played it grabbed my soul which comforted me. I felt this song must be about things i was experiencing at that time. I grew up with a schizophrenic and abusive father and a hard working mom which was never home. I had to build my own safety spots in my mind.

      I was 13 when this song came out when I was in the 8th grade. It was such a comfort/release for me when listening to it and watching the video. I'm glad you found it...music is timeless
