5.0 out of 5 stars
Club Heaven, December 9, 2003
This review is from: Nothing Fails (Audio CD)
Madonna has had a rocky year in 2003, but she ends it on a positive note with the maxi-single for "Nothing Fails/Nobody Knows Me". It features a generous amount of remixes for both songs. All the remixes are excellent, surprising considering the number of remixers including Peter Rauhofer, Tracey Young, and Above and Beyond. My only disappointment is that the remixes of "Love Profusion" are not included as previously indicated. Maybe they didn't want to be too generous...but this is still a worthy package and even more satisfying than "Remixed and Revisited".

Best ballad from the "American Life" album, January 25, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Nothing Fails (Audio CD)
"Nothing Fails" is one of the best ballads from the "American Life" album along with the "Love Profusion". Very unfortunate that Madonna or her recording labile decided not to release a video for this single. In general, it's very hard to remix ballads for clubs. Most successful ballad remixes ever made by Madonna was the one for "I want you" and "Love don't live here anymore" which never got commercially released. "Nothing Fails" remixes are overall fine. My favorite mix is the Peter Rauhofer's Classic House Mix. Nevins' mixes are of a dub nature and very "noisy". Too sad Madonna withdrew "Love Profusion" mixes from this maxi-single. The maxi is a must for Madonna fans. Hopefully, Madonna's next album will have more beautiful songs like "Nothing Fails", "Love Profusion", "Don't Tell Me" and she will stop singing like a robot AND WON'T EVER GET CLOSE TO BRITNEY SPEARS BECAUSE IT'S A BIG SHAME FOR HER!

NKM Awesome Remixes and NF Great Remixes! Highly recommed, February 4, 2005
This review is from: Nothing Fails (Audio CD)
First of all American Life is a very underrated album. If you haven't got it so far please get it. Nobody Knows Me is my favorite fast song. The remixes are out of this world. No one really knows Madonna and she talks about "people are not so kind" and "it's so hard to find someone to admire" great words. All remixes of NKM are awesome. Nothing fails is really good to. Original version with the chorus is the best. The first 3 remixes; Peter Rauofer Classic House Mix, Nevins Room Rock Mix, and Tracy Youngs Underground Mix, are a little repetitive but I would give it a 7 of out 10. The last 2 remixes are great and you would definately dance to them. This song talks about her love for hubbie Guy Ritchie and how she has climbed "the tree of life" and "no longer care if I fall". Which she has after being around for such a long time and seeing so many things and now if something happens in her life and it brings her down she will not fall, which is implied. I am so glad she sang both these songs at the Reinvention Tour!!I highly recommend this Maxi Single to any Madonna collectors!
