ComingWithTheClouds

What was the sound like for those on the floor, particularly the B section?

Thank you for keeping it going!!!

I also misheard Vogue. I heard: Beauty's where you find it THATS just where you bump and grind it Soul is in the MUSICAL That's where I feel so beautiful, Magical, LIGHTS ABOVE so Get up on the dance floor I knew "lights above" wasn't quite right and then heard FLEXIBLE.

I don't know if this has been posted, but I think this is the best sickick remix of Frozen.

You'll See Express Yourself or Like A Prayer

You added it!

My favourite official mix is The Immaculate Collection version - which is not on the list.

Facing the stage she came down the middle right side. It could be different each night so...

Express Yourself was sung a capella, Papa Don't Preach and Crave was cut. I don't know about costumes. She spoke a lot and that annoyed many people who often shouted "sing something". Rude. She sat next to someone in the audience called Giampero (?) and chatted to him. At the end she walks up the aisle. I was a foot a way from her! I'm not happy about the view I had. I'd say half of those in the stalls shouldn't have been for sale - you couldn't see what was going on due to the upper circle obstructing the view. I'm going to complain to Ticketmaster tomorrow.

While there was a considerable amount of confusion amongst fans regarding the registering of shows initially, I was wondering, what was your experience like during the registration and purchasing of tickets? Your story might help and advise other fans purchase tickets and avoid any problems you might have had. Here's my experience. I used the Madonna site to register for The London Palladium. I'm not an Icon Legacy member or part of any scheme that allowed me early access. Tickets were due to go on sale Fri 24 May. I got an email at 6pm the day before tickets went on general sale (Thurs 23 May) stating; From what I've read, not everyone got an email like mine. I immediately went to my local ticketmaster website and made sure I was logged in. On the day of the sale I received two sms texts. The first was a link to purchase tickets- - this arrived at 6:30 am. The second was a code to access the sale - this arrived at 7:45 am. I used the link just before 9am, this took me to the Madonna shows on ticketmaster. I also copied the code. There was a countdown to when the tickets would be on sale. I selected the show I wanted to attend and waited. There was a list of show packages. I knew I was going to be clicking the Verified Fan option due to my email. The moment the sale started there was an unlock button, pressing the button I was then prompted to provide the code I received via sms. It was then a matter of selecting the seating area I wanted and then wait for ticketmaster to find me a seat. It seemed to take forever! Got the seat and area I wanted and had a few minutes to secure the ticket or release it and find another. I went through the payment process. Each stage of the payment process you were allocated more time to complete the purchase. The payment process took the longest of anything to do. I completed the purchase and was taken to my overall ticket details. I also received a confirmation email a few minutes later. The email arrived at 9:18 so the entire process took less than 20 minutes!

I was just having a look at the UK official charts. In terms of sales, Medellin is at number 32. For audio streams Medellin is not in the Top 100 #shock

I wouldn't say radio is nearly irrelevant. In the UK, BBC radio 1 have 10 million listeners a week and BBC radio 2 have 15 million a week. That's still a lot of people to reach who enjoy music and most likely to stream or purchase a song after hearing it on the radio. What truly makes a difference is sales. In the UK 100 streams on a paid-for service equates to one sale, while free services like YouTube require 600 streams to equal one sale.

It's not my favourite quote but the scene from In Bed With Madonna/Truth Or Dare when she's on the bed with Donna and Niki has been floating around my head for several years:

I can't believe it...we have a release date! It'll probably be postponed lol ;)

I wish I'd watched the Showtime video when it was available on YouTube. I didn't imagine having to wait this long for a release.
