On December 13 2003, “Nobody Knows Me (P. Rauhofer, Above & Beyond, Mount Sims Mixes)” hit #4 on Billboard’s Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart in the US.
The track from American Life had been serviced to clubs as a promo-only 12-inch, with the remixes being issued commercially in North America as part of the Nothing Fails maxi-single.

A VIRTUAL snapshot timeline of Madonna’s life to that point, Nobody Knows Me sums up Madonna’s Amazing and Incredible career with the indelible lyric couplet-“I’ve had so many lives/Since I was a child/And I realize/How many times I’ve died/Nobody knows me!”-with such sadness, horror and finality that Madonna gladly would do her life over again-What doesn’t kill her makes her stronger!
Amazing video! So many lives, indeed. And it doesn’t even cover her most recent decade…
