But Secretly, You'd Love to Know What it's Like, Wouldn't You?


Scene from the film, The Cement Garden. The intro for What It Feels Like for a Girl.

  1. Never seen the movie, but the song, WIFLFAG, is probably one of my least fav M songs.

    The shrill in her voice when she sings the chorus just kills me. :/

  2. Oh My God. Thank You. I can't believe I haven't seen this movie yet. Seeing Charlotte Gainsbourg speak those lines in context feels like closure, I'm finally going to watch the entire thing now, what a beautiful, sensitive scene.
    As for the Madonna song, What It Feels Like, it's always been one of my favourites, her vocals are heartfelt and like honey :) x

  3. I saw this film growing up and didn't pay much attention. Love that Madonna used the quote, because it's brilliant. Also love the song (I always thought the Music album should have been called What It Feels Like For a Girl). Also makes me think of White Heat from True Blue because she used the same idea then too.
