Lyrics:
This used to be my playground (used to be)
This used to be my childhood dream
This used to be the place I ran to
Whenever I was in need
Of a friend
Why did it have to end
And why do they always say
Don't look back
Keep your head held high
Don't ask them why
Because life is short
And before you know
You're feeling old
And your heart is breaking
Don't hold on to the past
Well that's too much to ask
[Long and movie versions only:]
Live and learn
Well the years they flew
And we never knew
We were foolish then
We would never tire
And that little fire
Is still alive in me
It will never go away
Can't say goodbye to yesterday (can't say goodbye)
No regrets
But I wish that you
Were here with me
Well then there's hope yet
I can see your face
In our secret place
You're not just a memory
Say goodbye to yesterday (the dream)
Those are words I'll never say (I'll never say)
This used to be my playground (used to be)
This used to be our pride and joy
This used to be the place we ran to
That no one in the world could dare destroy
[Short and movie versions only ending:]
This used to be our playground (used to be)
This used to be our childhood dream
This used to be the place we ran to
I wish you were standing here with me
[Movie version only ending:]
This used to be our playground (used to be)
This used to be our great escape
This used to be the place we ran to
This used to be our secret hiding place
This used to be our playground (used to be)
This used to be our childhood dream
This used to be the place we ran to
The best things in life are always free
Wishing you were here with me

I can’t tell you what this song means to me. Came out at a time when I was still young with so much promise. Now I’m 42, lost. Alone. But I play this and it takes me back to those times when I was young. Keeps me hanging on. Weird how a song can do that.
You are still young... we just have keep going, all the best!
I'm also 42, this was my graduation song from primary school. It brings me back and it's bittersweet but wouldn't trade it for another. I am Jamaican, single mother,lost my job, rent piling up just here taking a load off. If you don't mind could, we be friends?
@@jamesnencka32 You're so sweet!
@@nickeishaingram9566 same here, graduating xlcr primary, good ol days back home, hope things get better mi sistren.
You got this bro !
Mom I miss you... It's a year without you.. the heartache the silence I'm forever broken without you Mommy..
❤❤❤
me too with my husband I condolences to you
Try to hold the memories in your heart and you'll feel a little peace
me too July 6th one year my Mom passed @user-nj1vk5th5w
Been almost 3 for my mom.....keep moving forward....remember the good times
Madonna's song "This Used to Be My Playground" reflects nostalgia and longing for a past that can never be experienced again. It is a very deep feeling that is sung about and everyone knows it.
She did amazing at this but critics back then only were used to her dance pop songs and called this boring.
in portugal we have a term for it, we call it "saudade"
I didn’t know she wrote AND sang her own songs. A lotta talent! Peace
I think of my grandmother when I hear this song. She would always take me to my elementary school playground. I cry every time I hear this song.
Madonna has old soul I feel she has her heart in she sings this song ❤❤
One of most Madonna's underrated number one songs. Brilliant lyrics. She can sing a ballad like no other.
She finally sang it in Chicago a few
days ago.
❤
What a ballad pull at my heartstring every time I hear it ❤
@@johndean4727yea wow from uk England
Beatiful song
I lost my wife to COVID last year. I hear this song and it takes me back to a time when life was much different, and better. I miss you so much baby. RIP my love.
Sorry for your loss
I lost my wife in 2018 to a short lung illness.
I will stay with her even in her death.
These comments break my heart without even knowing you both. RIP to your wives. I'm so sorry. Be good to yourself please. You matter. Thank you for being you.
😢
🥲I’m sorry
Can't belive this wasn't even nominated for the Best Song from a Motion Picture Oscar. It's one of Madonna's all-time best works.
I know right
Miss daddy and Sapphire the Cat
Oscar used to hated Madonna and Bjork... The true TALENTED women's in Music History 👍
I think beautiful stranger should have been too.
@@chrispa9573 And Live to Tell as well. A Masterpiece of a song.
This was the #1 song on Billboard 30 years ago, in August 1992. Here I am still listening to it. Bittersweet. How time flies.
So sad....your my age. We some old fools......Lol :)
Cheers to both of you, buds! Sit back and relax and enjoy a timeless, quality tune!!!
Feel the same brother. She an aconic. Tc Sri Lanka
totally agreed ..
I remember, 36 years old.
This song takes me right back to the end of summer '92. A new girl moved into my apartment building, and invited me to a church youth group, and I couldn't come up with an excuse not to go. That night changed my life - for the first time people just accepted me, didn't make fun of me. Friends - the best things in life are always free!
Flash forward 30+ years, and now I'm the church youth leader bringing together kids from many different backgrounds showing them that God loves them no matter who or what they've done. I think back fondly of Amanda and am so thankful for her and the time we had. I wish at times I could go back to our "playground" but know that time has moved on...
Wishing you were here with me.
Me and my big sister grew up in the 80s. She was born in 81. Me in 85. We loved Madonna. When I hear her I see my sisters face. Sadly my sis died from a painful suicide in 2019. Wishing you were here with me sis. 😢this used to be our playground.
Oh Bella, I am so sorry for your loss. May your sister's memory be a blessing and may you find comfort in those memories. ❤
Bella!....im sorry for your loss...my sister took her life in 2010.....my thoughts are with you hun x
So sorry for your sister may she rest in pease
I am truly sorry for your loss. My beloved younger sister was killed by a drunk driver when she was only 17 and whenever I hear this, her beautiful face appears before me. Stay strong.
Oh dear... That God might heal your soul for this so sadly lost.
I'm a 56 year old married man with a beautiful family. I've become successful in my field of work. I like racing, I like shooting my guns, and my favorite band is Rush. However, no matter what time of day...what day of the week...wherever I am...this song brings me to my knees! I have to struggle to compose myself when I play it at work. The song is so painful yet I cannot stop playing it. I cry like a baby when this song plays over the end credits of "A League of Their Own." Madonna has pried her way into my soul with this masterpiece. It makes me want to visit the baseball fields I played in as a youngster and drive through the parking lot of my elementary school. And, I'm melancholy, once again.
Jesus Christ, dude. It's just a song.
Its because its an amazing song!!! Kinda cuts right to the soul. MANY people feel the exact same way about it!!!
Tyler Smith songs aren’t always just songs.. lyrics with meaning can be quiet moving. ❤️
Amen
Yes,I know what you mean, this song has touched my soul as well.
It's a masterpiece!
I lost my daughter. Last place I had her was the playground. I cry every time I hear your song. Thank you for this amazing song. Helps me with the loss. But it will never go away. ❤
I miss her..
Very sorry for your loss.
My condolences to you losing your daughter. RIP
So sorry for your loss😢
Sorry for your loss❤
Her best song, not even nominated for best song in motion picture oscar
Fun fact. When asked to come up with a ballad for the film, Madonna was recording her fifth studio album, Erotica, with producer Shep Pettibone. The due worked on some ideas and came up with "This Used to Be My Playground" in two days.
In loving memory of Penny Marshall, who directed that great movie "A League Of Their Own," from which this song was taken. Penny Marshall, R.I.P.
I miss my childhood😞😞😞
Penny did an amazing job for A League of their Own. 👍👍👍
She also directed Big, with Tom Hanks, another good one
Love Ms. Penny Marshall aka Laverne! RIP
Yup and her Daughter Tracy Reiner was in the film as well.
This song made A League of Their Own's end credits one of the best I've ever seen
It sure did!
I agree, I cried. It was beautiful, funny and sad.
Me TOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
I see the movie and i love it
Yup.
No matter who you are, this song will being tears to your eyes. We all might have different memories and beautiful nostalgias of loved people we lost, but this song will bring tears.
I lost someone who I really cared about him around 3 years ago thats my Cousin and he betrayed me...He was used to be my playground.
si
Agree.
I love this song so much, but it hurts every time i listen to it . All those childhood memories come flooding back , wishing to do it again . Remembering family members that have passed on . Your friends, and all those great times
The only constant in life is sadness.
@@LoneLee2022 He's right you know!
I grew up with a gang of friends on our street. We all played together-girls and boys. When we went to junior high we stopped playing together and were making new friends. But a year later I got us playing again. We all knew that this was it, that we were savoring the beauties of our childhood world, that was already almost gone.
This reminds me of my lovely friend Cathy, we lost touch, oh how i could go back to those times, i miss her over 40 years
This song is so beautiful to listen to the background harmonies by Madonna are amazing
My dad passed away 5 days ago , I still can’t believe it , it happened so quickly , he took good care of me , I can’t understand how I will live the rest of my life without him
I understand you, have passed 2 years ago since my mom passed away and still i can feel her kisses and hugs full of love and tenderness... I will be missing her for the rest of my life
Be comforted🙏🏿
I lost my Father in 2018 and I think of him everyday
My dad is 64, and the thought that someday he'll be gone forever leaving an empty space in my life absolutely terrifies me 😢
Your memories will see you through. It gets better. One day at a time.
This song came out while I was still in high school. Now that I'm halfway thru my life, the lyrical content holds so much truth and meaning for me. It's hard to listen to it without getting emotional. I think we all wish we could go back to simpler, more innocent times.
Jeana Marie u are right from Candyman
I watch A League Of Our Own before.
The youth of today don't appreciate good music
@@sportsmedia25 They sure don't.
Me too, I'm glad I'm not on my own, oh I wish I could go back and re-live those days, say hi to people long gone and just be a kid again, get called in by mum when tea was ready or when the street lights come on not when your smartphone tells you to, a mum still young and worries so that you don't have to. If any of you kids of today are reading this.....take note and don't wish it away.
This song was sad when it came out... but now that I'm in my 40s... my god, does it hit you in a completely different way.
Yeah agree.its devastating 😢 💔
The youth of today will never know the impact madonna had on so many people in the 80s and 90s.she truly is an icon.
@@Destiny93134 SHE WILL ALWAYS BE THE QUEEN OF POP!
@@LoneLee2022 yes !!!
well there is none sostart there
This song always brings me back to the summer of 1992. Smash that like button if you're a gen x'r like me!
Year 1992 ❤❤❤❤❤ One of the best
Summer in 1992, I'm 16... ❤❤❤😢😢😢
Does Xennial count?
It was 1992 and I was a little girl
@@cascade3769haha same!
One of the most beautiful underappreciated ballads.
This is really one of Madonna's most forgotten songs and this is even one of her #1's songs on the Hot 100 but this song really never talked about.
So true and to be honest, I kinda like it that way
I've been on Michael Jackson and Madonna binge lately. I totally agree about this movie and song! This movie was huge in the 90s and I really enjoyed it. It reminded me of Sandlot and The Preachers Wife with the soundtracks.
I agree. It says a lot on how chart positions are overrated and they mean literally nothing. Some of Madonna's most iconic hits are "Frozen, The Power of Good-Bye, Secret, Rain, Don't Tell Me, Beautiful Stranger, La Isla Bonita, Hung Up, 4 Minutes", one would think that they are all #1s, instead they all missed the top position.
This song deserves more attention.
Songs like this are why I love her music so much. You are my people. She is the untouchable "it" girl. No Miley, Gaga, or whoever can touch the authenticity and bravado that is Madonna. Some come close (Pink!), but Madonna is one of a kind. She created her own lane. She did it despite who was biting what she tossed out there. Who stood up for her when the world despised her (or the music)? She did. Madonna has balls no man can touch (even Sean Penn). I wish I'd had an ounce of the courage she had to be who she came to be.
@@xxxTIN0xxx I feel you. Loved those, too. Her catalog is impeccable. Those heartfelt, gutwrenching songs still get me.
The QUEEN OF POP IS STILL REIGNING ❤
This song cuts me so deep inside it hurts!
This is the most underrated ballad in history and it was even #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 but nobody talks about this song by Madonna.
Its such beauty
Sbe showing the great artist She is
The only 👸
this song was first released when i was in high school, but now as we get older, we fully understand the meaning of this song, especially these verses..
_Don't ask them why because life is short_
_And before you know you're feeling old_
_And your heart is breaking_
_Don't hold on to the past_
_Well that's too much to ask_
One of the GREATEST songs of ALL TIME!! The second I hear it it immediately brings a knot in my throat and brings back nostalgic memories, it never fails!! Anyone else can relate?
Yup.
Yes
Definitely.
Got that right!
At one time hahaha I had my on playground 🤣😅
Totally can relate , I feel exactly the same ❤
I am 63 yrs. Old, and this song always make me cry. Madona is the Queen of my heart
She sang this song on CELEBRATION TOUR!!!!!!
She has performed great ballads throughout her career, and this is one of her best 😍
Awsome.Ye?
I absolutely LOVE this one by Madonna. She has a great gift of ballads and make them really mean something special.
I still remember seeing her film with this song in it! Damn, I hate being old! 😢
I love when she does a ballad record
@@tutsybassista which film is this in?
As I get older... now... this songs makes more and more sense 😭

So true
How Madonna has not won an Oscar for soundtrack songs she’s written is outrageous. I get that she was controversial and the institution didn’t wanna seem to legitimize her but her talent is colossal. She’s one of the greatest songwriters, producers, and live performers in popular music. On a side note, she won both Stephen Sondheim and Andrew Lloyd Webber the only Oscars of their careers.
I know, right? _A League of Their Own_ was a box-office smash, and "This Used to Be My Playground" topped the music charts. Normally, hit songs from hit movies are Oscar-nominated.
Agree
Live to tell was amazing
Rest In Peace mom 😢❤ she loved this song
one of the Madonna songs, that touches my heart most
Me too
I still cry too this 😢😢
this is so underrated@@tobiaslloyd7611

Promise to try is my favorite
"Don't hold on to the past", well that's too much to ask..." Anyone who's ever lost someone or something can understand the truth and pain in those words!💔
I am at this very moment. June the 8th is my mother's second anniversary. I am alone now and miss her tremendously. She and I listened to these songs including "I'll Remember". They were our last songs we listened to together before her passing. These lyrics do mean a lot to me and I am thankful to have these memories. Bittersweet emotions but I'm thankful to Madonna for writing these memorable songs. ♥️🌷
I understand because I've lost 27 people I love very much in 15 years
@@DjLadywolf wow thats a lot. Life is hard but hang in there!
🍂🍂🍂
Mario D. Esperanza find a lovely woman your mother would be proud of, be loved and love once again. As Madonna says ' there's hope yet ' and I'm sure your mother just wants you to be happy
The orchestra takes this song to another level. Haunting lyrics and a heartfelt performance from a woman who rarely allowed herself to be vulnerable. She has not sung this live.
Yes i get what you are saying...even at her age, with loving kids..she is still " afraid" of showing the true self only when we show all our real colours ( all shades) are we " truly authentic"
Hard to believe she is the same artist these days. All dark, almost devil-ish imagery and so forth when she performs on award shows or whatever. Too bad. She wrote some great stuff on the Take A Bow record too. La Isla Bonita is another example of greatness.
@@drumr72 I can’t believe someone can write such bullshit seriously “almost devil-ish imagery” 🚀🚀🚀😂
@@rebelblue You clearly are just a sheltered person. You have no idea how the real world works. Plus, all it takes is a pair of eyes to see the dark imagery she pulls at those award show performances. You need to grow up and realize the evil is real and people are into sick, demented shit. Don't give me crap about it, its not my fault the world is sick. Obviously you cannot handle the truth.
@@drumr72 Well said
It`s been a year since my last comment. This song still puts a lump in my throat. My wife passed away 3 years ago and this was one of favorites. I miss Paula.
Sorry for your loss...
Sorry for your loss. Keep holding on ❤
I’m sorry. RIP Paula 🪽
God Bless you friend
We all miss her. I was her Tuesday afternoon guy. I know her Friday morning fella was on antidepressants for 18 months, he took it really hard.😢
So many people say: "this is her best song" on each Madonna's video when they ignore the real hidden gems of her incredible catalogue, this is one of her very best ❤❤❤
I'M NOT CRYING, IM NOT CRYING.
What an amazing song..
This is a melancholy song if there ever was one! ❤

It's a MASTERPIECE 👑👑👑
Lost my mom November 6 2018 and a League of their Own was one of her favorite movies and she loved Madonnas music. when my grief starts building too much and I need to let it out to listen to this. Its a hauntingly beautiful song.
A masterpiece.They'll be playing this on RUclips and radio stations around the world for the next 100 years and beyond.Mark my words : )December 7th 2023.
If there is any Planet left....
This song makes me cry all the time when i listen to it. A great ballad. Masterpiece
Actually sitting here with tears in my eyes listening and remembering my lovely dad.he loved this song and I miss him so much 🥺
I was 22 when this single came out, now I'm 52 and still can feel it
Absolutely
Me too ❤
I listened to this song after watching A League of Their Own for the first time yesterday.. It was filmed 30 minutes from my home and several co-workers were extra's.. Beautiful song!
Folks forget how wonderful she is....on every level...she was IT for a LONG time
...or she forgot how wonderful she was
She still is IT
@@LEGENDDD2005 No, this generation isn't really aware of her.
@@MrS98VAC It's not just this generation. She's practically been forgotten.
@@smf5576 Frozen, Material girl, Hung Up and now Back that up to the beat have been all viral on tiktok
Ofcourse she is famous and known even day
As an 17 y/o I can confirm
Sorely underrated and rather forgotten song, which should be celebrated as one of Madonna's most beautiful performances. Somehow this song makes me sad and nostalgic, but at the same time gives me inspiration and makes me remember my dear long gone friends. Thank you Madonna
Agreed
This song makes me cry so much! It’s Madonnas voice that is so incredibly beautiful!❤️
It's a beautiful song.................😗
Timeless song!!
I feel the same ! I listened today this song on repeat and many times tears flowed down my cheeks...
Yes. Spot on. One of those really emotional songs that can make you cry. The effect of this to our emotion is almost like the song "The Long and Winding Road" from The Beatles.
😂me too
On Sunday, I was omw to our favorite playground, the beach, and this song came on American top 40. I cried through the whole song... from August to October are the anniversaries of the deaths of my grandmother, aunt, and mother. All of them loved the beach. This song conveys what I can't adequately express and was exactly what I was feeling...I loved the song when it came out, and I love it more now that it can tell my story to those who cannot understand my grief...
Thank you Madonna !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They don't do "pop" songs like that anymore with a truly haunting classical element, that makes you think about your past and the years gone by.
Wow!
Listening in 2021,one of Madonna’s best songs I think...beautiful X
One of anyone's best songs. It really is one of the greatest songs ever written.
Also fantastic is "Don't Cry for me Argentina."
I miss being a little boy 😔
14 March 2022.🇬🇧🇺🇦
Indeed
She's made a lot of songs but this is the one that is her most powerful. She's known for her up tempo stuff but when she makes a ballad, especially like this one, OMG. This tugs at your heart like no other song she's ever done. & this one made it all the way to #1 on the charts.
Perfect song . My favorite next to "Borderline" .
Song of veru good movie
This song makes me sad. Beautiful song . The one that just takes me away tho is
"Live to tell"
This Used To Be My Playground deserved an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song.
A No. 1 hit song for a No. 1 hit Hollywood film and the The Academy ignored it.
In 1993 Madonna received the award for Best Songwriting at the 8th annual ASCAP Film & Television Music Awards.
YES. This and one of madonnas early songs “love don’t live here anymore” from her like a virgin era
The most beautiful of all Madonna ballads. Period.
This song is beautiful. It gets sadder as you get older and friends come-and-go
I dedicate this beautiful song to my beloved Mother who passed away four years ago, she was and will always be my greatest Love in Life, thank you dying Mother for all the moments spent with you, I can't reconcile with you, I know that you are somewhere, that I am you see, your beloved only son...
My mother passed away in 2016
God bless her you will reunited once a again but until then shes always in your ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My condolences and sympathy, Life is not fair. Yours sincerely, Martin
You’re a great son. To a mom who loves you.
One of the best songs made for a feature film. I miss the days when a movie had a contemporary pop song to go along with it. Made the films feel more part of the cultural landscape.
madonna performed this song for the first time in chicago yesterday. I cried!
Yes, this was a dream come true for many Madonna fans!
About time!!
Omg I wish I could've been there!
I absolutely love this song and movie… one of Madonna best work! Never got the credit it deserves, and her voice is incredible
I agree
I can't discribe how much I love this song! I cried many times while I was listening to it. This lyrics and her singing, it's painful to realise how life can be such a transient thing if you don't live like you want to, after all, we still can change, you can always change yourself. Beautiful ballad, I would die to hear it live maybe someday. I hope she remember it like I do, 'cause is one of the best songs in her whole career. It would be so amazing after so many years!! Just her and these instruments on the stage. ❤🌍👑✨
I agree. It's sort of sad this song never garnered the attention it deserves.
Agreed!
IKR !!! I was also crying when I listened to this the very first time 😢💕
Should have been nominated for an Oscar but the academy didn't like her attitude.
I remember when i move from the house of my parents ♥
This song reminds me of my friend i lost 20 years ago. We were young, full of dreams but some where down the road she gave up. Now I am 43, changed physically and got more emotionally independent but in my memories she is still a 22 year old
My friend gave up too. Glad we could share the miracle of being there at a special moment to know such a brilliant person.
I feel your pain. I’ve lost friends over the years and the thing is that the people or person who has passed will always be that age. My Son had a friend who sadly passed at 20 years old and in our eyes he’s always 20. 🙏🥲
🤗
Are You Kidding!!! Madonna,,, You Brought Everyone Back Home!!! XOXO
This song means so much more now that I'm older. It reminds me of how life used to be all fun and games; thinking I'd never be in this position I'm currently in. Old friends have moved on, started families... but it seems I'm always holding on to the past... I guess that's what happens when you live a life of, "I wish I would have..."
It's Over!!!! Don't Look Back!!!!!
I understand. And you still can reminisce about nostalgic times of our past. However it is important that we keep balance in our lives. Make improvements on your current situation even if it is baby steps and it will make looking back on your past even more enjoyable.
Well you still alive, you don't need to have kids to be happy.
it's OK to look back just don't dwell on regrets you might of thought were the proper choice at the time
I ALWAYS HOLD ON TO THE PAST WITHOUT PAST U HAVE NO FUTURE LISTEN TO YOUR EMOTIONS
Not a big Madonna's fan but this is one of Best records recorded by ANYBODY
Not a fan at all of Madonna... but this is, for me, her best song ever...
I´m 100% agree.
Isn't it though??!! Just Amazing..
This song and take a bow are my fav
Same here ...it really tugs at your heart!!!!
It brakes my heart of nostalgia, babe. Life and music are THE combination.
A League of Their Own movie. Beautiful movie. Great work. ❤❤❤
"Don't hold on to the past" Madonna teaching us no regrets just live life.
That's RIGHT no confusion JUST LIVE THAT'S WHY GOD MADE US
She also follows with the line 'Well that's too much to ask'. So she is actually holding onto the past. You missed the message of the song.
@@jasonblitz7454 Right...and she stated “Say goodbye to yesterday, those are words I’ll never say.” Somewhere in our mind the past will always remain ....we can chose to forget or not dwell in it but it comes by once in a blue moon...memory lane.
You need to reread the lyrics. The whole point of the song is she disagrees with those sentiments.
@J Ds This is one of the most beautiful ballads ever released

In the last 30 years, only God knows how many tears have flowed down my cheeks listening to this magnificent song! I will love this song until my last second of this life...
Thank you , Madonna !!! 💖💖
No matter the backgrounds we all come from, this song hits a strong nostalgia inside of you that would make you fight to push back the tears in your eyes.🥲😥
yes it does
Should have been nominated and won the Oscar! But the tight assed Academy has never nominated her... Live to Tell, Beautiful Stranger, This Used To Be My Playground, I'll Remember... all deserving of a nomination... and wins!

Why do you hide yourself? Don't you have a picture where I can see your face? What are you afraid of?
This song is so hauntingly great! It stirs such emotion and is so well done. Thank you Madonna!
My favorite Madonna song of all-time.
This came out a year before I had surgery for an unexpected brain hemorrhage, causing me to go from a straight A student in 6th grade to a stroke causing seven serious physical and mental disabilities. The song really rings true and taught me a lot in the years to come.
Much had been said about Madonna,But this is one of the most BEAUTIFUL songs EVER!
I could not agree more #2020
A beautiful song from a beautiful film I thought one of Madonna's best 👍❤️
30 years have passed but the legend that is Madonna lives on!
"The best things in life are always free...wishing you were here with me!" Like Madonna singing those lyrics to her mother, who passed away, when Madonna was 5 years old. Such a touching song, with profoundly moving lyrics.
Idk why but every time I hear this song I want to cry
Me too
Me too, and it brings back some happy memories of my youth but more sad memories of time misspent and lost. I try not to dwell on the negative vibes it reminds me and count myself lucky, health, my amazing children and affection from my wife occasionally. That I try and stay positive and tackle one day and minute at a time. And cherish the successes achieved in those minutes and days.
🙋♀️😢
I think its the music
not being funny. I mean rather than the words
This song really touches my heart, even more so now that I'm 39. Time flashes by, our parents grow older... Though my motto has always been "keep my inner child alive", I can't deny that life has a way of trying to make you cynical and having you put up walls to protect yourself after experiencing hurt. Regardless, this song is like a time capsule that has captured the beautiful nostalgia of being a carefree child with their life ahead of them.
She FINALLY performed this after 32 years of waiting.......now we need to hear "Rescue Me" & "I'll Remember" Live !
This was the song that made me fall in love with Madonona....she was the most beautiful woman in my 8yr old mind. Her music taught me about expression, acceptance, and truth....she still holds a very special place in my heart :)
@@vitorriccardo445 I still get misty eyed when I hear it.
i definately couldn't agree more. Nicely said.
Same, except I was 10 years old during that beautiful summer of 92.
I saw the movie when it came out and this song was fitting. Man I miss my childhood of the 70s, 80s, & 90s. Growing up through those years were special and will never sadly come again. My dad served in the Navy in 1943 when the women baseball teams were formed and was in the Pacific and Atlantic during WWII. We lost him 4 years ago this month. I remember him telling stories of his time in the service, as a kid and how those were happy times for him, even though we were at war. I miss you dad, we lost you too early, still had time together, Rest in Peace and thanks for everything you taught me over the years, even though I didn't listen than!
Your childhood spanned 3 decades?🤣
Good old days 😊
The best Madonna song for me I think
I lost my parents last year in a nursing home, one surrounded by strangers trying to keep him alive, the other forty nine days later, gasping for air, neither were given last rites by a priest. So I gave my mom last rites as guaranteed by the catholic church with her daughter, her other son, grandchildren, and great grand children, thou was pure of heart, in the township, my family made a name for themselves, Ewing. Mom and Dad had a great costly send off, and one day I will remember them in song, this I promise.
"Why do they always, don't look back"
"Don't hold on the past"
"Say goodbye to yesterday, those are words I will never say"
The hardest part of life for me is letting go to the past
Love her slower ballads! Show's off her beautiful voice more. ❤❤
Me too
Me three
She really is quite talented .
The QUEEN OF POP IS STILL REIGNING ❤❤
Her best song ever;Love her,Thankx
This song gives me chills to the core
I was graduating from high school in 1992 when this song came out. It made me think of preparing for adulthood, saying goodbye to friends as we went in different directions, and faced with tucking away those cherished childhood memories as childhood comes to a close.
Madonna ballads are unparalleled
Seriously no other female singer comes even close!
Madonna: THIS USED TO BE MY PLAYGROUND
This song makes me cry, not because it makes me feel sad but because it touches my heart.
I am a 54 year old man, lived with pure emotion, with the soul of a child and the mind of a wise man. This song is one of my or if not my favorite of all your Madonna songs, she is like my identity.
I lived my childhood, adolescence and maturity in an amusement park: the Playcenter in São Paulo/Brazil. It was the place where I took refuge from the world, from problems, from family, it was my heaven where moments were just joy. Today this park no longer exists, even Michael Jackson himself loved to know it when he was there.
This song brings me my best memories of how happy I was, how free I was, how I was simply ME.
Madonna, her songs and melodies move me a lot, they were always part of my story in all good and bad times.
At the end of my journey, I hope that this song will be played on the day of my departure, as it transports me to the best world, to heaven. May I shine freely in the midst of so much darkness.
Esta canção me faz chorar, não porque me faz sentir triste mas sim por tocar em meu coração.
Sou um homem de 54 anos, vividos de pura emoção, com alma de criança e mente de um sábio. Esta canção é uma das minhas ou senão a preferida de todas as canções suas Madonna, ela é como se fosse a minha identidade.
Vivi a infância, adolescência e a maturidade em um parque de diversões: o Playcenter em São Paulo/Brazil. Lá era o lugar que eu me refugiava do mundo, dos problemas, da família, era meu céu em que os momentos era só alegria. Hoje este parque não existe mais, até o próprio Michael Jackson adorou em conhecer quando esteve lá.
Esta canção me transporta as minhas melhores memórias de como fui feliz, de como era livre, de como eu era simplesmente EU.
Madonna suas músicas e melodias mexem muito comigo, sempre fizeram parte de minha história em todos os momentos bons e ruins.
Ao terminar minha jornada, espero que toquem esta música no dia de minha partida, pois ela me transporta ao melhor mundo, ao céu. Que eu possa brilhar livremente no meio de tanta escuridão.
One of her most underrated songs. So beautiful and haunting.
yes but that's strange because this song was #1 everywhere when it came out.
@@pabloocristgrc8579 And yet she never performed it live.
Cyndi Lauper finally acknowledged The Goonies song and Madonna finally acknowledged the League of Their Own song. Life is good.❤❤ ❤ ❤
What!?! Cindy Lauper Goonies what;? You guys try to give sense to nonsense!
I was 19 when this came out and saw it with my High School girlfriend...Where does time go...
