NKM Awesome Remixes and NF Great Remixes! Highly recommed

"First of all American Life is a very underrated album. If you haven't got it so far please get it. Nobody Knows Me is my favorite fast song. The remixes are out of this world. No one really knows Madonna and she talks about "people are not so kind" and "it's so hard to find someone to admire" great words. All remixes of NKM are awesome. Nothing fails is really good to. Original version with the chorus is the best. The first 3 remixes; Peter Rauofer Classic House Mix, Nevins Room Rock Mix, and Tracy Youngs Underground Mix, are a little repetitive but I would give it a 7 of out 10. The last 2 remixes are great and you would definately dance to them. This song talks about her love for hubbie Guy Ritchie and how she has climbed "the tree of life" and "no longer care if I fall". Which she has after being around for such a long time and seeing so many things and now if something happens in her life and it brings her down she will not fall, which is implied. I am so glad she sang both these songs at the Reinvention Tour!!I highly recommend this Maxi Single to any Madonna collectors!"

"Madonna has had a rocky year in 2003, but she ends it on a positive note with the maxi-single for "Nothing Fails/Nobody Knows Me". It features a generous amount of remixes for both songs. All the remixes are excellent, surprising considering the number of remixers including Peter Rauhofer, Tracey Young, and Above and Beyond. My only disappointment is that the remixes of "Love Profusion" are not included as previously indicated. Maybe they didn't want to be too generous...but this is still a worthy package and even more satisfying than "Remixed and Revisited"."
Best ballad from the "American Life" album

""Nothing Fails" is one of the best ballads from the "American Life" album along with the "Love Profusion". Very unfortunate that Madonna or her recording labile decided not to release a video for this single. In general, it's very hard to remix ballads for clubs. Most successful ballad remixes ever made by Madonna was the one for "I want you" and "Love don't live here anymore" which never got commercially released. "Nothing Fails" remixes are overall fine. My favorite mix is the Peter Rauhofer's Classic House Mix. Nevins' mixes are of a dub nature and very "noisy". Too sad Madonna withdrew "Love Profusion" mixes from this maxi-single. The maxi is a must for Madonna fans.
Hopefully, Madonna's next album will have more beautiful songs like "Nothing Fails", "Love Profusion", "Don't Tell Me" and she will stop singing like a robot AND WON'T EVER GET CLOSE TO BRITNEY SPEARS BECAUSE IT'S A BIG SHAME FOR HER!"
Madonna Does It Again! Wowsers!

"Did you know Madonna is the artist that has the most #1 singles in any one given chart? What chart you may ask? Billboard's Dance/Clubplay chart. Currently having 3 songs at once in that chart is just amazing. It's obvious Madonna is no longer the Queen of pop, but the Queen of dance.
Madonna has a way of picking the BEST DJs to kick her songs up a notch. Peter Rauhofer, Tracy Young, Above and Beyond.
'Nothing Fails' has in my opinion 3 GREAT dance mixes on this maxi, and 2 pretty good, not quite as dance floor friendly mixes.
'Nobody Knows Me' ... Well ... the Above & Beyond mix just BLOWS ME AWAY!!! I LOVE IT! The dancefloor goes wild when that mix comes on!
I do wish the mixes of 'Love Profusion' were included on this maxi, but you can't get everything...it'll just give me something to look forward to I guess.
This maxi-single sits next to Madonna's 'Music' maxi-single as a true classic. This is a winner."
"ABOVE AND BEYOND", the music will take you there...!

"The first to reviewer obviously, have no taste in the current trends of uplifting progressive trance. I must admit, I was getting a bit overdrawn a bit with a bit of the too much influenced tech-house/hip-hop influence on her previous remixes...The last amazingly "TRANCE" influenced remix was of "What If Feels Like For a Girl" by the European trance producer gem "ABOVE AND BEYOND", and it is the Above and Beyond 12"Remix on this cd maxi-single that stands out to be the best!..I just pray and hope that Madonna continues to provide more styles of uplifting trance remixes in the future as well...well here are some future suggestions:e.g. Paul Van Dyk, Tiesto, Ferry Corsten, Armin Van Buuren, Svenson and Gielen(Airscape), Alex Gold..."
