Sorry (4:40)
From Confessions on a Dance Floor and 14 other releases
“Sorry” is a song by American recording artist Madonna from her tenth studio album Confessions on a Dance Floor. It was written and produced by Madonna and Stuart Price and was released as the second single from the album on February 28, 2006. An uptempo dance song, “Sorry” was one of the first tracks developed for the album and had numerous remix treatments before the ultimate version of the track was finalised. One of the remixes was done by the Pet Shop Boys featuring added lyrics by the band. The actual song features a dance groove tempo. It talks about personal empowerment and self sufficiency.
“Sorry” received positive reviews from contemporary critics who declared the track as the strongest song on the Confessions on a Dance Floor album. Some critics also commented on the song’s disco influenced beats while comparing it to Madonna’s older dance songs. It achieved commercial success: topping the singles charts in Italy, Spain, Romania and the United Kingdom, where it became Madonna’s twelfth number one single. Elsewhere, the song was a top ten hit. However, in the United States, the song could not perform well due to an underplay on radio but was able to reach the top of Billboard’s dance charts.
The accompanying music video was a continuation from the “Hung Up” music video. It featured Madonna and her dancers roaming around a city in a van, dancing on roller skates and Madonna fighting with a group of men in a cage. She performed the song on her 2006 Confessions Tour in a similar fight sequence to that shown in the video. An additional video was created as a backdrop for a remix of the song, which depicted political leaders and scenes of war and destruction.
