Jitterbug

Mmm.. maybe the diaries are but you can easily prove a lot of things he says in interviews wrong like dates and such. Let alone that he contradicts himself a lot. 
I'm not saying he is malicious about it because memories fade and he is not a stan like us who thinks about those things everyday, but still...

At the end of the day we also have Madonna on record attributing Express Yourself to Pat Leonard and remembering the VMAs 84 and American Bandstand differently than the actual footage... 

Agree, Love Hurts is a great track I go to very often.
I always guess why when Erotica got to her final stage they simply chose to take You thrill me off. She clearly likes that song (she included it in the Confessions and in the Celebration tour) and it's actually sexy and dramatic and cool at the same time. They could have produced a new instrumental, maybe writing some spoken parts and include it in the album. I'm sure it would have worked better than Did you do it, don't you? 

Kylie released it on her Disco album

Is this video supposed to be against misogyny? I rather see the typical video where women continue to pander to the sexist vision that men have of them by presenting semi-naked women showing their breasts and butts in close-up. Where are the ordinary women that we usually see around the corner, on the subway or in the supermarket? Flabby women, women with bellies, women who don't shave their armpits, ugly women, old women, women who burp or fart without caring about the delicacy and femininity that men so admire and demand of them? I'm glad Madonna wasn't part of this absurd project.
Once again the inconsistency of these artists who claim to fight for minorities but at the same time are great friends of famous homophobic or misogynistic people whom they choose as producers of their albums. Fortunately, Madonna is not on that path of falsehood and hypocrisy. She is the only artist who can boast of being consistent with her convictions and does not sell her soul to anyone in order not to lose success and fortune and that's what I admire most about her.

Or they could be waiting for a genuine public reception. If they have an idea the public isn't going to latch on to it, it's possible they won't want to spend anymore time and money in promoting it.  Therefore they will move on to another song. It's possible they anticipated this. After all, she's released numerous one off singles in the past and they haven't taken off for her.  And I will admit, Katy doesn't have the same public interest as she used to have.  If radio doesn't get on board in playing her new song, then there is really no hope.  This is just the way the music world works.  Also, I see many here raving about Kesha's new track, but it's not doing any better and it's been out for several weeks now.  So again, you can't go by reviews and streaming charts, but even so, fans will enjoy it no matter what. 

And maybe the song will "bomb" in the sense of how people consider what is a "hit", but it won't change how many actually still enjoy it.  Besides, like you pointed out, it wasn't added to the usual "Top lists" to help boost it.  Also, making a determination how a song is received after one day's release is a bit unfair.  There are plenty of songs which have started off poorly charting whether it's digital, streaming or Billboards and yet still manage to climb.  Besides, that's how it used to be in past decades. Songs would debut low on Billboard charts and then sky rocket in the next few weeks. Not saying that will happen here, but I'm not determining if this song is a "hit" or a "bomb"  after one day's release. This idea that a song needs to debut strong the very first day, is just a recipe for the song to quickly disappear.  I prefer a song to saunter and stick around for awhile.

‘Woman’s World’ by Katy Perry debuts at #58 on Global Spotify with 2.25 million streams.
It also debuts at #110 on US Spotify with 500k streams.
BOMB

I would swap:
- La Isla Bonita for Who’s That Girl or DCFMA (Miami Mix)
- Like a Prayer for Express Yourself
- Burning Up for Material Girl/Dress You Up
- Holiday for Borderline
- Hung Up for Sorry
- Human Nature for Secret
And I would bring back 4 Minutes, The Power of Goodbye, Take a Bow and Living for Love

Their other Orbit produced single 'Black Coffee' would've really suited Madonna at the time IMO and includes drum production that sounds very Beautiful Stranger/Amazing/I'm A Sinner, especially from 4.24 onwards
 

It sounds like liquid love and arioso

It’s like asking KM not doing the same setlist for every tour 

Does she have a new stylist? Cuz it's giving "I have a new stylist who knows how clothes should fit". Thank God.

 
 
 

I honestly believe the Celebration Tour changed her and helped her find a confidence again. 
She used to be on the top for decades and then it was suddenly a flop after flop (MDNA, RH, MX) for her for the last couple of years  (+ ageism) which takes its toll for any artist, especially considering she is queen of pop always looking to the future and not relying on past successes like all the others in her age (clearly she doesn't want to be a legacy artist at all). But during Celebration Tour she finally felt the love of all fans again all over the world + sold out shows, amazing reviews, Rio.. It has boosted her career once again, and clearly she is finally enjoying herself again. I am so, so, sooo happy for her!
Something was simply slightly off with her performances with Maluma or during Eurovision, but since Celebration Tour has started until this moment in NYC Pride, this is Madonna in full power again as we haven't seen her for years. The Queen is back (even if she never left). Makes me almost cry seeing her this happy (and owning the stage again!) 

Candy Shop annhilates corpse market, not even close 

Oh I love this topic.
1. Any Virgin Tour so I can film Angel, Borderline and Burning Up in glorious 4K and share with everyone here
2. Who's That Girl - Turin or Florence
If I get a third it would be Blond Ambition. Probably Barcelona for the crazy hair or Toronto for artistic expression and freedom of speech 

Also, the sad truth is that some Madonna fans are around 60. If they keep waiting to release some of the rare stuff, there will be no one left to buy or stream it. I even know some fans who have even passed by now and never got to witness the singles on streaming. It’s very very sad, so this whole "things need to stay exclusive" bullshit is extremely elitist and ignorant.

Nope, we're gonna get another re-issue of FEL Rainbow edition.  You're gonna love it, even if you don't!

Im thinking Who's That Girl remix with Tokischa for pride on the 29th event with the remix dropping on the 30th along with the old EP.
 

Yeah something has changed majorly throughout this campaign. From the first Human Nature upload missing some of the major commercially widely available released mixes, to real effort being made with vinyl only promo mixes being sourced and releasing up to 15 mixes on a single release  to just pressing upload on the basic maxi or CD single and not bothering to register as New Music Friday. They can’t even get the dates and chronology right and whether it’s an album or single. 
With that and the fuckery of the FEL tracklist and I really don’t hold much hope for the EXPANSIVE releases. 
 
It is what it is. I’d rather it was new music tbh and these dropped between albums but her output has slowed to a crawl so I guess it padd it out til the biopic time. 
We are where we are. 

TUTBMP is strongly associated with the Erotica album, as it was recorded during those sessions. I think IF they indeed plan to release expanded versions of her albums, it will appear there.
I never expected it to appear on this single though. They only go as far as promo mixes occasionally but an actually unreleased version? No chance, unfortunately.
And unlike some people here pretending to be super loyal fans by saying crap like "Oh I think it’s great that some stuff stays exclusive to (rich) fans! Not everything should be available. " I am disappointed in the inconsistency and the overall patchiness of these re-releases.

What I really want is that they sort the singles correctly.
For example, moving Love Profusion and Don’t Tell Me from the albums section to the singles section.
