Info about song
This is the incorrect tag for The Power of Good-bye. "The Power of Good-Bye" (released as double A-side single with "Little Star" in the UK) is a pop ballad written by American singer Madonna and Rick Nowels for Madonna's seventh album Ray of Light (1998). It was produced by Madonna, William Orbit and Patrick Leonard, and received a positive reception from music critics. The song was released as a single in the fall of 1998 (see 1998 in music), and although it failed to match the chart success of its predecessor "Ray of Light", which reached the top five in several countries, it reached number four in Germany, the top ten in the United Kingdom and Canada, and the top twenty in the United States, where it became Madonna's thirty-seventh top-twenty single. The music video for "The Power of Good-Bye" was directed by Matthew Rolston, and was filmed from August 8-10, 1998 at Silvertop House in Los Angeles, California and Malibu Beach. The video showed Madonna and her lover playing chess and ultimately Madonna destroyed the chess board indicating an end to their relationship. Madonna went walking to the sea, but it was unclear whether she drowned herself in the last scene. Madonna's lover in the video was played by Goran Višnjić. The video was premiered on MTV on September 10, 1998, a few minutes before the MTV Video Music Awards show began. The video was occasionally played on The WB Network after the television show Felicity, which played the song as the background music during its TV ads. It is available on Madonna's DVD compilation The Video Collection 93:99. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
