live to tell about tears

not sure if you remember the amazing track by dj shadow that was an underground hit in the 90's called 'organ donor' (and now i finally understand the 'donor' part...just thought it was cheeky for a different reason) but when madonna peformed live to tell while hanging on a disco cross during 2006's confessions tour...that was the track that most thought she sampled and incorporated into the emotional and naturally controversial centerpiece during her show...recently i found a track by techno mastermind giorgio moroder that i discovered was the original culprit of brilliance. i've uploaded the track for you and also embedded the live performance of 'live to tell' so you can compare....stuart price, her musical director for the show, is obviously a moroder fan and must have been the one to suggest using it...so glad he did because the reworking was epic!
