Stop messing with your face. You are one of the most beautiful girl/woman in the world, you have a natural face structure that is the closest to perfection. 

Reconnect with your old pals... Debi M, Rosie, Erika, Roesanna, Liz, etc. Just remember who you are and where you came from.

-Hire a fucking community manager for your social media accounts. You are not doing it well, sweetie.
-Keep your fans happy. In the end, they're the ones who buy your records nowadays.
-Live in the fucking real world, 400€ for a concert ticket won't get your "real" fans to the concerts, only the rich ones.
-You're a living legend, care about your legacy.

I’m here for an EP era. 
four EPs of four songs each with 4 picked as the lead with a packaged album at the end would be something fresh for her. 
 
Do it M. It would be nice to have something less laborious. Light and in the moment. 

Much increased visibility and she could even repackage them as a 2CD with some of her greatest hits or with the singles and other songs from the MDNA-Madame X era.
a cute package that could shift some units.
- Bitch I’m Madonna
- Girl Gone Wild
- God Control
- Turn Up The Radio
- Crazy
- Devil Pray
- Love Spent
- Crave
- Ghosttown
- Medellin
- Living For Love
- Masterpiece 
- Future
- GMAYL
- Body Shop
- Come Alive 
- Rebel Heart
- I Rise
 
 

I'm less interested in an album worth of material and more interested in just 1-off singles or EPs with 4 songs.  
Similar to what Roisin is doing, just release an incredible song when you have one finished.  Don't bother trying to collect 12-16 songs when you have one ready to go.
Issue the single to iTunes, etc. Determine response from fans ... then do a few remixes. An instrumental .. just small gestures .. 
Do this 2-3 times a year .. it's nice.
Albums are great. They had their day. But now -- they ALWAYS leak. And they don't perform well. So they're a lot of work and little is recovered. 
Back in the day, Madonna did a ton of 1-off singles from soundtracks/charity/benefit albums -- and many of those did SO well because they came when there was a dry spell, but also -- no one had them. There wasn't an album already released containing the song.
And instead of ramping up a massive "ERA" campaign with expensive producers and photographers and merchandising, just throw out a single. I bet it would do better than an album single. 
The other thing is, with a 1-off single -- no one has it. With an album single, by the time the 2nd or third single hits, everyone has the album that wanted it so .. what's the point unless you have kick-ass remixes and where will you hear those? the clubs? where all her 40-50 and 60-year old fans are every saturday night? Mmm .. they're not .. 
Her fans are not going to the clubs like she thinks they are or she should be lol ..
 

I'm convinced Live To Tell is about her abortion from Jellybeans baby that happened before the Virgin Tour hence her being "chubby" for the first time ever.
Weird that she followed it up with a song about pro-life in Papa Don't Preach and then danced with a child in the Open Your Heart video and rounded off with the La Isla Bonita video playing our the virgin and the whore. 
I imagine True Blue was a bittersweet time for Madonna. 

Yeah I think an acid house or Detroit house / rave vibe would be good for her. Something that was going on which she was doing peak pop in 89. 

I think she’s only really concerned with  creating stuff that her kids and her boyfriend approve of. She pretends not to need approval but deep down she wants to appeal to a market many years younger than she is so her kids are a natural springboard of opinions for that. 
 

I wonder if Madonna will focus her next campaign on getting the gays back?
 

Bitch Im Madonna pushing Into The Groove out of the top ten feels homophobic. 

I don't think we're gonna get this type of album for another few years. I think she's likely to have a late career classic album that will sadly come from her writing mindset after her father has passed and the twins are leaving for college. So we're looking at a 71 year old Madonna giving us a the third in the trilogy of Like A albums...Maybe Like A Lifetiime. More organic and with a studio band.

Yeah Dua has a few bopps on her new record but theres 11 and three of them  Future Nostalgia, Good In Bed and Boys Will Be Boys are unlistenable. Love Again uses a really bad played out sample and that's about it. 6-7 good pop tracks.I think I actually prefer her first record which has a bit more range and depth. 
She's just taking advantage of the purer pop drought of the last few years ...and good for her. In a larger purer pop market she would get drowned out a bit more.

Hey. You know what is missing (or I can't seem to find on the forum)? A comprehensive list of each eras unreleased or rumoured songs. I know there's a downloads section but I'm not talking about something that is downloadable. It would be great to have a really concise reference as a pinned post at the top of the page. It seems like a no brainer to me at least. 
It should probably be compiled by a forum master or something so it will forever be editable as we discover new song info and stuff is slowly leaked over the years.
Does someone think this is possible. The only reason I mention it is because I was looking through that American Life era thread and found a couple of song titles I had no idea about.
There used to be  "file discussion" thread on the old version of the forum but I can't find it now. 
Just for formats sake something like:
 
AMERICAN LIFE ERA: 2002
Album track alternate versions
"Hollywood" - (early version possible from MUSIC sessions) "Silly Thing" - (early version of Nothing Fails) "The Process" - (Dance version of X-Static Process said to be similar to Impressive Instant) "Mind Trap (per)" - (Early Version of Nobody Nows Me) "Round & Round" - (Early acoustic version of Easy Ride rumoured to have no string arrangement) "I've Got You Under My Skin" - (Early version of Love Profusion) "Love Will Change Us Forever" - (Early version of Intervention originally created in the MUSIC album sessions) Unreleased Tracks
"Set The Right" - (leaked) - Mirwais "The Game" - (leaked) Mirwais "Cool Song" - (leaked) Mirwais "My Ejector" - (It is said to sound like the final version of “American Life) "React" - Mirwais "Adverse Youth" - (said to be a ballad) "Can't You See My Mind" -  (ballad from Die Another Day soundtrack) "I Can't Place It' - (said to be a heavy guitar driven stop start track like Don't Tell Me. Possibly an early demo of Im So Stupid) Abandoned / Rumoured
"Alpha Beta Gamma" - (collaboration with French duo Air. Later released as an instrumental) Madonna also reportedly reached out to Dr Dre and Paul Oakenfold to work on the project. Goldfrapp were also invited to a screening of Swept Away at Madonnas house for a potential collaboration. George Michael was also reportedly seen visiting the studio Madonna was working in Aphex Twins were quoted as saying Madonna contacted them to work on music for her  
Any one on coronavirus lockdown fancy having a bash at this as a lil project?
 
 

and they're brilliant but something more concise just listing the material itself is something I would find really useful.
