Don't You Know? - Madonna

[@mariahhall8481]

I’m 20 years old. Don’t have to be old to like Madonna. I fucking love her! This unreleased track is just genius. The music sounds so good.

[@lucascruz2002]

É pedir demais por uma música fodástica dessa no Spotify???

[@lucascruz2002]

Tenho 21 e tbm adoro Madonna

[@willgregg1076]

Eh it’s just good and easy on the ears. Madonna is the only pop artist I like.

[@felipeyoungw]

The song sounds like a transition of the disco era (70's) to the 80's. I love it!

[@truthteller9772]

Don't sound like stay demo nor the LP version they are two diffirent songs with diffirent sounds .

[@philliplandry4139]

It has that similar factor like Prince's Dirty Mind.

[@samueIferreira]

@@philliplandry4139 exactly

[@MooseCall]

Because it is.

[@Roberto4ever]

Omg, how much I love this song. first time I heard this was on Amoeba Music Hollywood Blvd.

[@samdauphin8052]

This song is so funky and dope wow ... shoulda been a single

[@blackpanter9572]

I love this song. I can't believe as a Madonna fan from day one I never heard it! Soooo many great songs this woman has contributed to society.

[@heatherr0420]

I've been a fan of this goddess of music for 40 years now, and I get so excited when I discover new stuff that I didn't know about. Or should I say old stuff LOL some of her early stuff is so good yet so raw, definitely something that would have totally fit on her first album

[@elliotto10001]

Madonna is such a lyrics recycler !! I adore her all the more. I had this song on a CD that a friend borrowed and never returned so, THANKS A MILLION for posting it.

[@ReubenWalton]

which lyrics did she recycle from this?

[@rlebrker235]

@@ReubenWalton The chorus and second verse of this song is used as the first verse of Stay, but you’re never gonna hear me say goodbye is replaced with “I’ll always want you to stay”

[@moneyshotshowtime]

This should be reworked and released on her next compilation.

[@ginasousabranco5637]

I realy love M's pre-fame era

[@vdwest4592]

I bought the CD PreMadonna and this song and Laugh to Keep from Crying are my favorite tracks. Thanks for posting this so others can enjoy these demos since otherwise they may never have found out about them. This CD proved she had commercial potential just like the song Lucky Star.

[@saltwatercb]

This song is totally consistent with the sound of the first album. It's quite catchy--a combination of funk and new wave. They should have included it, especially since there's only eight tracks on the album. With a little tweaking it would also fit on "Hard Candy." What goes around comes around, eh? :-)

[@communication001]

Problems with the guy who did the music. Not all his fault it seems.

[@ReubenWalton]

@@communication001 what’s not all his fault?

[@AurumEtAes]

It was reworked and became Stay, the final track on Like A Virgin LP

[@vincentruvo6988]

Very nice. Should have been released!

[@DannyM.D.N.A]

This is a BANGER

[@NataschaO]

This was turned into the song "Stay" on the album "Like a Virgin".

[@B0b-theBuilder87]

love this song! nice and funky!

[@tinajohnson1005]

This is Madonna I love!

[@HartKent]

0:10 - 0:24 Lines later used in Stay (Like A Virgin)

[@nice-qm5jc]

I'm so sad it's not on spotify

[@jeanituzaca5888]

No sabía que Madonna tenía canciones tan bonitas con talento para la música es hasta ahora la mejor

[@tawnteens]

This song makes me want to go shopping!

[@vincentbarrios5872]

tawnteens I heard Stay '81 and thought of going to Macy's and sampling men's cologne.

[@speedsol]

The sound of this song has actually very few in common with the first album. It was dominated by synthetic sounds and drum machine rhythms, whereas this song has a completely different, "handmade" live sound of funk/new wave, as you correctly mentioned.

[@sucramlove1677]

Yeah it kinda sounds more like a Teena Marie production compared to Madonna’s first album.

[@communication001]

I think it's quite detroit techno.

[@rlebrker235]

I think this is actual drums cause she played the guitar and drums on her demos

[@philliplandry4139]

Well it's a 1980 song. Most pop songs that came out that year have that funk/new wave vibes. Pop music didn't really start sounding like just pop like we recognize today until 1982. But from 1979 to 81, all the pop songs are gonna have a blend of Disco/Funk/New Wave.

[@StefanDot]

incredible song

[@vdwest4592]

I agree that this song didn't promoted enough. More people should hear it. It a great dance tune love song.

[@justjess-zl3pm]

This song wasn't promoted at all. It was a demo.

[@duane_313]

right lol@@justjess-zl3pm

[@DeeJay-zz1yi]

[@anarosabalbino646]

Madonnaaaaaaa...

[@susanasue]

You, you make my life much bright, baby You're always on my mind Don't you know you, you make my load much light, baby True love is ours to find You came along when I was losing my way You touched my heart and now I'm ready to say That all your sweetness callin' back ugly skies And now I've fallen for the look in your eyes I couldn't ask for more You're what I'm looking for Oh [chorus] Sometimes I feel I have to get away I change my mind when I look in your eyes And when those clouds come in to darken our day You're never gonna hear me say good-bye I couldn't ask for more You're what I'm looking for Oh [chorus] Don't you know [chorus] Don't you know? Uh, oww, uh, oww Uh, oww, uh, oww [Spoken:] Tainted love Oh [chorus] Don't you know

[@mariahhall8481]

Thanks for the lyrics Susana! I’m learning this song.

[@aleksandermarczenko1432]

Dziękuję.

[@vincentbarrios5872]

i like her little vocal 2:01 to 2:06 is sublime I heard this song for the first time today...it is growing on me already and so is Stay '81 demo

[@tammybradshaw5400]

🎶The jam!🎶

[@alocaad0]

I enjoy very much listening to madonna, this songs, make me fly, ♥!

[@janejuliettesuzanavonsukov7048]

One of her many ex-boyfriends produced this track along with "Everybody" and two other songs. Madonna wouldn't even mention Steve's name until the record label told her that she HAD to give him credit for his work. I consider this Steve a genius and the actual creator of THE 80ies sound.

[@beingsshepherd]

One of her many ex-boyfriends 😁

[@yaya7594]

Its false information forgive me but the fact that Mark Kamins introduce her to Sire records and made a deal to reproduce her demos so it was not a Madonna’s décision but the record compagny and she have to compromise but after the success of her 1st album, she imposes Stephen (aka Steeve) Bray and for her 3 next albums like a virgin, true blue and like a prayer !

[@CrystalCoffin]

What an assh*le you are and also everyone who liked your stupid comment. Even Seymour Stein acknowledge Madonna's talent in his book. The one who consistently made and gave great music to the world BEYOND just the 80's, beyond the 90's too and even beyond the 00's is MADONNA, NOT her "ex- boyfriends" and especially not a talentless nobody like you.

[@CrystalCoffin]

And if dummies like Gaga or Beyonce ever recordered this song, you would shamelessly praise them as "geniuses". I understand how Madonna-hating scums function. They have always infested the world.

[@communication001]

@@yaya7594 Really? I don't think it's that clear. Though clearly and excellent melody writer at the time she considered herself the major creator of the music as a result which was clearly very wrong since before Steve bray she was just a chrissy hine rip off and my research suggests she was very much happy to totally wipe bray out and he was not best pleased hence refusing further permission. I don't know. You could be right. But I definitely get the feeling she was a massively impulsive and desperately needy person and basically a bit of a child or even a vampire so I wouldn't put it beyond her. But damn, that lyric and melody writing! It's like mozart it's so intuitively developed and just gets the perfect balance between interest and repetition. And the voice, little sexy girl from down town - just utterly devastating.

[@vincentbarrios4069]

The original "Stay" and this song were combined and made the final "Stay" which was the last song on "Like A Virgin"

[@kshinokevin]

Reggie Lucas, Mark Kamins (producers), (John) Jellybean Benitez (remixer) and many more helped Madonna create her first album (by Sire Records); "Vision Quest" film OST tracks, & "You Can Dance." Highly Talented People like Stephen Bray (of the group The Breakfast Club; in which Madonna was a part of: they sung the "Right on Track" song; he helped produce "Into The Groove" (for the 'Desperately Seeking Susan' film); Chic's band member Nile Rodgers, Trevor Horn (the Art of Noise producer) and countless various writers and producers helped Miss M on the newer albums: "Like a Virgin," and "True Blue."

Another great rare lost fantastc upbeat dance song that was never released? What happened? This superb ultra dance song could/would have sored way up to possibly number one on the radio dance songs. It's quitw pity & shameful, to whoever made the decision to not have & given it's merit to have become a huge populat dance hit.

[@TASHIYAHmusic]

cute and beautiful song

[@hotrodinthecity]

@vdwest4592 pre-madonna was the album that it was released on. this and the stay '81 became stay on "like a virgin." There was also "laugh to keep from crying" where she sounds like Chrissie Hynde from the pretenders. There are also great versions of burning up and everybody.

[@philliplandry4139]

Yeah it does sound like Prince from the Dirty Mind Era. I wouldn't be surprised if he was involved in remixes of her music from that period or even met this early on. Because at the time while this song was made, Prince was staying in New York around this time. So it would be a coincidence.
