"Sorry"



I bought the "Sorry" remix CD yesterday. I've been loving the Pet Shop Boys remix for a couple of weeks now, but wow! The Paul Oakenfold mix KICKS ASS! Best work he's churned out in a couple of years, maybe.

Wikipedia Trivia

The languages used in order as they appear in the song:
Intro
French: Je suis desolée ("I am sorry")
Spanish: Lo siento ("I'm sorry")
Dutch: Ik ben droevig ("I am sad")
Italian: Sono spiacente ("I am sorry" in a formal way)
Spanish: Perdóname ("Forgive me")
Bridge
Japanese: Gomen nasai ("I am sorry")
Hindi: Mujhe maaf karo ("Please forgive me")
Polish: Przepraszam ("I'm sorry")
Hebrew: Slihah ("Forgiveness")

1. The dutch translation in the song is "ik ben droevig" which translates to "I am sad". The correct dutch translation of "I am sorry" is "Het spijt me". Strangely Altavista's babelfish makes the same english-to-dutch translation error (the dutch-to-english translations are correct).
2. The van was "pimped" by the UK edition of MTV's Pimp My Ride (to be broadcast on MTV UK on Sunday 19th February 2006)
3. The single cover for "Sorry" marks the first time that a picture taken by a Madonna fan is being used as the cover image for one of her singles. Members of the Mad-Eyes Madonna fansite were contacted by Madonna's management in December 2005 after they saw pictures of Madonna's November show in London's G.A.Y nightclub, made by Mad-Eyes photographer Marcin Kokowski. Designer Giovanni Bianco changed the colour of Madonna's hair to red, like he did for the album cover.(The original artwork photograph)
4. The "Let It Will Be (Paper Faces Mix)" will also be available on the single. The mix, produced by Stuart Price, was recently performed on her promo tour, most memorably at KOKO club, in London and has become a favourite among fans.
