The quieter treasure from The Next Best Thing: an original song, made with William Orbit, that only ever lived on the soundtrack.
The Song
Written and produced by Madonna and William Orbit in the glow of Ray of Light, “Time Stood Still” is a gentle, atmospheric ballad. Unlike “American Pie”, it was never released as a single and remains exclusive to the soundtrack.
Madonna starred in The Next Best Thing alongside Rupert Everett, and executive-produced its soundtrack.
