Madonna-Gambler
Hace 7 meses en Música
"Gambler" is the second single by Madonna from the soundtrack album and motion picture, Vision Quest and was released on October 3, 1985 by Geffen Records.
It was not released in the United States but was in other parts of the world, notably in the United Kingdom where it was a top 5 hit. The single was the last to date of Madonnas commercially available songs whose songwriting was credited solely to Madonna until the release of Im Going To Tell You A Secret, which included the original version of I Love New York, also written by Madonna alone. The majority of songs from her subsequent career have been co-written by Madonna and other artists.
As the song was recorded on the Geffen label, it was rumored in the music press that a commercial issuing of the single in the US was suppressed at the request of Madonnas Sire records management. It was feared that commercial availability of yet another single by Madonna would have been detrimental to the other singles from the "Like a Virgin" album and the already available, Geffen-distributed "Crazy for You", all of which were performing well in the Billboard charts. Whether the song could have been another US Top 5 hit for the singer in 1985 will remain unknown, though in some other markets "Gambler" was Madonnas sixth consecutive Top ten hit in the space of just eleven months. At one stage, this was one of four of Madonnas singles simultaneously in the Australian top 40, showing the singers incredible international appeal at the time.
"Gambler" and "Hey You" (2007) remain the only of Madonnas released solo singles never to have been made available on any of her albums.
The song was performed in the Virgin Tour. (
