    First off, I just remembered about this website again and have a lot to discuss with fellow fans. The last time madonna was in a movie or acting role was decades ago. I always enjoyed the queen in any movie she starred in. I always wondered how she would do in a horror fling? Probably in a movie where she's probably the villainess. Thoughts? 

    I think it would only work out if it's a Rob Zombie movie. 

  2. I think everytime two huge stars get together for a collab, expectations also get huge, especially when you are a fan of both artists. THE PROBLEM of "Me Against The Music" is that the overall product let's say didn't meet those expectations. It could've been muuuch bigger. It didn't overcome the VMA performance.

    THE SONG is great and was a sensation, but I confess I don't like the main mix's "acoustic" vibes. Thank god we have 18 official mixes + variations! The Gabriel & Dresden Mix is the best dance mix in my opinion.

    THE VIDEO. OMG. What a disappointment. The almost no interaction of both annoys me, but the kiss reference in the end kinda made it okay, I guess. I love the colored underground scenario and Britney looks amazing but I hated Madonna's outfit which in my opinion didn't make her look good plus she looked like she was Britney's grandma. Maybe if she had the Erotica hair she'd look better? NOT TO MENTION her silly and bat tasted playing with leaves scenes and her disagreements with Paul Hunter.

    Madonna threatened to take herself out of that video at one point! She did NOT get along with the director on that video, PAUL HUNTER, either. She had already worked with him on the GAP spot and had not had a good experience. I remember she called Paul to give him some specific notes on the video and I guess, from what Madonna told me right after, she asked him if he was writing down her comments and he said, “No, I’m DRIVING.” Madonna said, “FUCK YOU”, hung up and called me right away. That was the last video I ever cut with Paul Hunter as I sided with Madge instead of him on creative issues and the direction of Madonna’s performance in the clip. I WAS TRYING TO HELP, I SWEAR. I got it to a place where Madonna was happy. I think the art direction is horrible and the wardrobe is stupid… it should have been way more modern, hipper and edgier for both Britney and Madge. It was one of the weakest videos ever, that NEEDED to be strong but just wasn’t. - Dustin Robinson, the video editor

    I think the majority of people on here would prefer you to use one thread its unnecessary taking up forum space.

    I agree, Madonna has so many singles, the forum will be flooded, not to mention every time I come here, I see a new thread but when I read, it's just more downloads from a series. I think when it comes to series stuff, those who are really interested will follow like I do, separate posts won't make people wanna get it. 

  4. I think we have to be impartial when choosing a track that could've been a hit. Just because you love a song, doesn't mean that the song would do good commercially. Songs like "Physical Attraction" - I absolutely love this one - in my opinion, are not strong enough to be a hit. Here are my picks, including singles that didn't get the deserved attention.

    DRESS YOU UP 
    My favorite - and strongest - "Like A Virgin" single is a very underestimated song that could've had a proper video. Also, I can't deal with the fact that huge hits like "Crazy For You" and "Into The Groove" also ended up without a proper video.

    SPANISH EYES
    One of the most beautiful Madonna ballads! This one actually was played in Brazilian stations, but like "The Look of Love", wasn't included on "Something To Remember". Quite unfair!

    RAIN
    I'll never understand why "Fever" got 'hundreds' of (weird) mixes but "Rain", another beautiful ballad that could have great dance mixes, only got a radio mix similiar to the original version. Not to mention "Bad Girl"...

    I LOVE NEW YORK
    My favorite Confessions track. It could've been a strong fourh single, instead of "Jump".

    BEAT GOES ON 
    Not because I'm a fan of Pharrell's music since Britney's "I'm a Slave 4 U" (2001), but this is another super overlooked song! The best song of "Hard Candy" could've been a strong lead single. I can't believe she picked "4 minutes" (I was already tired of listening to Timbaland stuff). I like "Give It 2 Me" but it doesn't even get close to this one. By the way I'd like to add I love "Heartbeat" and thankgod she didn't release "Candy Shop". IDK why she likes this one. Maybe if the album version was the promo tour version.

    ICONIC
    The title says it all. I think "Rebel Heart" is the album with more songs that could be hits but if I had to choose one, I'd choose "Iconic" as the second single and leave "Ghosttown" as a the fourth. By the way I'm #TeamBitchI'mMadonna and I loved that she released this one.

    FAZ GOSTOSO
    Everytime two huge stars collaborate, we expect something huge. Unfortunately, the same thing that happened to "Me Against The Music" happened to "Faz Gostoso": a lost opportunity to make something incredible. In this case it was worst because the song wasn't even released, like the queen just did if just for fun. It could definitely be #1 in Brazil if they wanted. For those who don't know, Anitta is like the Brazilian Madonna.

    What do you think?

    After "Frozen", "Material Girl" and "Hung up", it looks like "Sorry" and possibly "Give it 2 me" are getting their official remixes. Blondish is about to release a Sorry remix and from the look it M could be officially linked to it, but that's not all, M has posted a few fays ago a story with a new mix of "Give it to me" from Furtado/Timbaland and Nelly Furtado has now just posted a video on Tiktok in the studio playing the same mix and tagging Madonna. And there's also Honey Dijon who said she's been in the studio with M for new material and the rumor says it could be a new Vogue remix.  There are just too many official remixes being made at the same moment, involving famous singers/remixers. What do you think ? I think we're getting a remix album of her hits, just before the greatest hits tour. A remixed Celebration. She will probably perform most of these new mixes on tour.

    I hope not - at least with these versions - because theses mixes are horrible. Like Adele, I don't like TikTok music. The "Frozen" mix did not became a favorite but it's a good one. "Material Gworl" sounds like way too much hype and the "Hung Up" remix I'll probably never listen to it again because I don't like slowed down songs, not to mention the bass is so annoying.

    I think since it's a greatest hits tour, she could perform classic mixes or versions close to the originals, like the YCD mixes. For example, I like the "Like A Virgin" mix from the Rebel Heart Tour but I wouldn't like this version on The Celebration Tour. 

    My wish: Do with all songs what was done with "Like A Prayer" in The Immaculate Collection.

    Ok, done the dark version! @Brendonshayart happy to include more of your design - just send me some renders :)

    Also - if anyone has any great idea's for new themes, just send me through a pack of pics - this is your community, not mine - I just facilitate it for everyone :)

    Thank you so much for also doing a dark version!
    My eyes are too sensitive for light themes.
    Where do I change it tho? I coudn't find the setting anywhere.

    The sound and lyrics are trash. Her voice sounds like a dying crow in half of the songs. The legit only redeemable tracks are: Girl Gone Wild, I’m Addicted, Love Spent, Masterpiece, Falling Free, Beautiful Killer. It should’ve just been an EP that accompanied her Super Bowl performance and toured more as a greatest hits. The tracks I didn’t list are practically unlistenable. Does anyone mentally sound actually go a play Superstar? :Madonna009:

    It can seem 'silly', but it's a fun/cute song. More 'serious' fans - also the ones that dislike "GMAYL" will obviously hate it.

    I’ve always wondered why MDNA gets so much hate in the fandom. It’s not her best, but it’s a solid body of work. It has great songs like: I’m addicted, I don’t give a, Girl gone wild, Gang bang, Masterpiece, and more. 

    What do you think of this album, and why does it get so much hate? 

     

    I think the album is very canned (as in food - I don't know if there's a better word for that). My favorite songs are "GGW", "I'm Addicted" - the best, should've been a single and "Beautiful Killer". By the way, I love "GMAYL" and in my opinion most people that hated it, it's because they feel old. The sound of the album is too loud, too noisy, and to tell you the truth, I used to listen to only the first seven songs, then "Love Spent", then "Beautiful Killer" and that's it. I personally don't like "Masterpiece", a beautiful song but it's like there's something missing. I'd hardly listen to the 'last' song, "Falling free" is beautiful, though I never understand the love many fans have for last album tracks like "Like It Or Not", "Voices" or "Mer Girl".

    I don't like the tour also. The setlist, the outfits, the DVD cover... Everything feels like there's something missing.

  9. @emanonThis was supposed to be taken seriously... Anyways.

    @FighterAfter all these years, I finally got the book for the first time. I was 8 years old when the book was released lol. Now I got a super new Japan edition - only the book tho - for 55 dollars which seemed pretty fair considering the price they sell the book here in Brazil. God knows how hard is for brazilian fans who are poor (and by poor I mean those who have to struggle and make sacrifices, and sometimes pay expensive prices) to collect even the basic stuff.

  10. I love the album but I think it would be just perfect if The Look Of Love (beautifully nostalgic) and Spanish Eyes (which was played a lot in Brazil even though it wasn't a single) were included instead of the (time consuming) Orchestral version of I Want You.

    In my opinon, this compilation sometimes can feel like too much pasta with too little sauce. It's like something's missing, or was simply - maybe purposely - forgotten.

    Rob Zombie, one of my favourite people, just posted on Instagram, elaborating more on an incident he witnessed in September 1983 when he had just moved to NYC. 

    The incident in question involved Michael Stewart, a young African American who was being beaten by police. He would later die from his injuries. 

    Rob posted 3 images. One of Michael Stewart, one of artwork and one of a flyer advertising a benefit gig that took place on October 3rd. Look who the headliner was... So even from the beginning, she was active in standing up and being counted.

    Thanks for sharing this interesting fact, btw I love Rob Zombie's films.

  12. Not my favorite album, but an important part in Madonna history

    I remember being 7 years old and feeling so frustrated that Dick Tracy was not a Madonna movie like Desperately Seeking Susan or Who's That Girl. I used to hate the album. Sometimes I would listen to it but as a soundtrack album.

    The album does has great songs like Sooner Or Later and More. I used to think an EP (desired tracklist below) should've been enough, used to say Hanky Panky (which later I learned to like) was tacky, and that I'm Going Bananas and Cry Baby were the worst songs she ever done (I really didn't understand the album until now). Besides the smooth transition from Now I'm Following You to Vogue, I still think the song doesn't really fit the album, but who cares? That was one of her greatest business moves!

    In an alternate reality

    1) I'm Breathless EP: 1. He's A Man / 2. Sooner Or Later / 3. Hanky Panky / 4. Back In Business / 5. More

    2) Vogue was clearly included to make the album sell but I think it'd be amazing if it had first appeared on the Immaculate Collection.

    3) Something To Remember is a beautiful song but a little too slow to me and I like it more on the same title album. Since it's the last song on side A, I have a theory that like Vogue, this was the other 'featured new song' of the album.

    Please check my I'm Breathless Megamix EP
