[edit] POV
The music video section of this article is hardly neutral - it definitely needs some reworking. Triggy 00:11, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Trivia
It is assumed in this section that the timbre change in her voice was not intended. Often timbre changes are intended for emphasis. Can someone provide a reason why it would not be intended in this case? Laikalynx 01:18, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
It is apparent from all audible factors (notice i also stated the recorded atmosphere), that the work was revisited. One can even hear a difference in the "bleed" from the headphones of the singer if one uses a hi fi system and good headphones. That is exactly how I first noticed it, and I have no special musical credentials whatsoever: the fact is readily apparent and creates its own impression. I also never said it wasn't intended, I merely pointed out that is a case of audible overdubbing and suggested a rewrite as a possible reason (Madonna disclosed on the MTV documentary that accompanied Ray of Light's release that she had rewritten a song during production: namely "Skin", and Mirwais would reveal that she rewrote material during production of American Life as well. Almost all artists do this, it's part of their creative process. Furthermore, it is highly unlikely that it would NOT be intended. I did not intend any negative connotations whatsoever, merely that it's a rare case of noticable overdubbing, full stop--Tednor 14:32, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
Can you explain this a little more thoroughly? I don't hear the changes you're talking about. I've listened to every version of the song I have on CD (I'm Breathless, Immaculate Collection and remixes from the Vogue Single) and can't hear any change in the vocal during the rap. I'm assuming that when you say the rap you're referring to the "Greta Garbo and Monroe..." section. -- Davecool, 09:43, 5 February 2007.
