  • "La Isla Bonita" is a song by American singer-songwriter Madonna. It was released as the fifth and final single from her third studio album, True Blue, on February 25, 1987 by Sire Records. Originally written as a lament, the song was first offered to Michael Jackson before Madonna accepted it and re-wrote the lyrics with Patrick Leonard. "La Isla Bonita" is noted for being the first Madonna song to have a Spanish influence in it with arrangements of Cuban drums and Spanish guitar, maracas, harmonicas and a mix of synthesized and real drumming. The lyrics of the song tell about a Beautiful Island and was a tribute to the beauty of the Latin people according to Madonna. "La Isla Bonita" achieved worldwide popularity, topping charts in the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Belgium and reaching number four on the United States Billboard Hot 100 chart. In the accompanying music video, Madonna portrayed two opposite characters - a pious girl and a passionate latina. The Latin style and the flamenco red dress she wore became a trend later. The song is among one of the most performed live songs by Madonna, appearing in five of her world tours including 2008–09's Sticky & Sweet Tour. Madonna has regularly performed the song in its Spanish form, sometimes with tribal or folk songs and remixes to accompany it. The song has been covered by a number of artists including French pop singer Alizée for her album Psychédélices (2007).
  • "La Isla Bonita" es el quinto y último sencillo del álbum True Blue de la cantante pop estadounidense Madonna publicado el 25 de febrero de 1987. La canción funcionó muy bien en las listas de éxitos de varios países, excepto en Estados Unidos donde solo pudo llegar al puesto #4. Posteriormente fue incluida en el álbum grandes éxitos The Immaculate Collection y en la versión japonesa del álbum de baladas Something to Remember. Con el tiempo, la canción se ha vuelto imprescindible en las giras de la cantante y muy popular entre público de todas las edades.
  • La Isla Bonita on yhdysvaltalaisen poplaulaja Madonnan viides singlejulkaisu albumilta True Blue helmikuussa 1987. Kappaleen sävelsivät Patrick Leonard ja Michael Jacksonille kappaletta tarjonnut Bruce Gaitsch. Jackson kieltäytyi kappaleesta, joten Gaitsch tarjosi sitä Madonnalle joka halusi sen albumilleen. Madonna kirjoitti La Isla Bonitan sanoitukset. La Isla Bonitasta tuli suuri kansainvälinen hitti. Se nousi listaykköseksi Britanniassa, Ranskassa ja Saksassa ja Yhdysvalloissa siitä tuli True Blue-albumin viides kappale myydyimpien singlejen Top 5-listalla. La Isla Bonita oli myös Madonnan ensimmäinen espanjalaisvaikutteinen kappale, ja sen siivittämänä Madonna käytti latinovaikutteita myöhemminkin urallaan. Kappaleen musiikkivideon ohjasi Mary Lambert Los Angelesissa. Videolla Madonna nähdään erilaisissa alter egoissa, edustaen jumalallisuutta ja intohimoa. Sittemmin näyttelijänä tutuksi tullut Benicio Del Toro tekee videolla cameo-roolin. Nimeä La Isla Bonita käytetään myös La Palman saaresta Kanariansaarilla.
  • La Isla Bonita est une chanson de Madonna. Il s'agit du cinquième et dernier single de l'album True Blue sorti le 25 février 1987 chez Sire Records. Initialement écrit comme une complainte, la chanson est d'abord proposée à Michael Jackson avant que Madonna l'accepte et réécrive les paroles avec l'aide de Patrick Leonard. La Isla Bonita est la première chanson de Madonna qui possède des influences hispaniques dans ses paroles et sa musique. Les paroles évoquent une belle ile et sont un hommage à la beauté du peuple latin d'après Madonna. La Isla Bonita devient un succès mondial en se plaçant au top des classements de singles britannique, allemand, français, belge et atteint la quatrième place du Billboard Hot 100 américain. Dans le clip, Madonna interprète deux personnages opposés, une fille pieuse, et une fille latine passionnée. Le style latin et la robe de flamenco rouge qu'elle porte durant le clip sont à l'origine d'une nouvelle mode pour les jeunes femmes. La chanson est une des plus chantée en Live par Madonna, elle l'interprète dans cinq de ses tournées mondiales, dont le Sticky & Sweet Tour de 2008-2009. Madonna a régulièrement interprétée La Isla Bonita dans sa forme espagnole. La chanson a été reprise par de nombreux artistes, dont la chanteuse française Alizée dans son quatrième album, Psychédélices, sorti en 2007.
  • La Isla Bonita è un brano della cantante Madonna. È il quinto singolo estratto dall'album True Blue ed è stato pubblicato il 25 febbraio 1987. La canzone, nonostante il fatto che uscì come singolo quando True Blue aveva già venduto 12 milioni di copie, fu subito un grande successo mediatico. Nell'estate del 1986 il brano veniva già trasmesso da tutte le radio, nonostante fosse appena uscito il singolo Papa Don't Preach. In Italia furono registrate anche un paio di cover dance addirittura prima che la canzone uscisse come singolo. La canzone, che anticipa di molti anni il cosiddetto "Latin-pop", portato al successo da altri artisti come Ricky Martin e Jennifer Lopez, è stata scritta da Patrick Leonard e sua moglie Susan insieme a Bruce Gaitsch. La canzone era stata offerta inizialmente a Michael Jackson che però la rifiutò. Dopo il primo ascolto, Madonna riscrisse le parole, mentre si trovava in Cina per girare il film Shanghai Surprise. Nel videoclip Madonna si veste con un tipico abito dell'America Latina e sfoggia dei capelli scuri. Il brano è stato incluso nel primo greatest hits di Madonna, The Immaculate Collection, uscito nel 1990. Una cover del brano è stata realizzata dalla cantante francese Alizée uscita come singolo per il mercato messicano nei primi mesi del 2008.

  • La Isla Bonita - piąty singel promujący album Madonny pt. True Blue. Piosenka odniosła bardzo duży sukces na całym świecie, do dzisiaj jest jedną z najchętniej emitowanych przez stacje radiowe piosenek Madonny.

Kompozycja napisana przez Patricka Leonarda i Bruce'a Gaitscha pierwotnie została przedstawiona Michaelowi Jacksonowi i miała ukazać się na jego albumie Bad. Została jednak odrzucona, a Patrick Leonard zaprezentował ją Madonnie w trakcie pracy nad albumem True Blue. Piosenka była później wykonywana przez wielu artystów, m. in. przez francuską piosenkarkę Alizée (wydana jako dodatkowa ścieżka meksykańskiej wersji albumu Psychédélices).
