TBH Madonna's latest recordings were more sophisticated than traditional or most current pop music and very message oriented. I love most of MDNA, Rebel Heart and Madame X. There is a lot of sincerity and art in those neighborhoods. I would take those three albums over an album like Like a Virgin any day. Some songs should not have happened but there was so much music during each of the eras that a couple of songs really is not an issue.

Happy birthday to our Unapologetic Bitch! Luv the Queen!

Bought one. Regular Black Vinyl as picture discs can be wonky.

My shows, blocks from my home were spared. Whew! Go Seattle!

The evidence speaks for itself.... MAGIC!!!!!!!!!!! Music Impressive Instant I Deserve It Nobody's Perfect Don't Tell Me Paradise (Not for Me) American Life Hollywood I'm So Stupid Love Profusion Nobody Knows Me Nothing Fails Intervention X-Static Process Mother and Father Die Another Day Easy Ride Future Lovers Let It Will Be Fighting Spirit Super Pop It's So Cool Medellín Dark Ballet God Control Batuka Killers Who Are Partying Extreme Occident I Don't Search I Find

Easy Ride has always been my jam. Paradise was definitely elevated for me with the live performaces. Mirwais and Madonna are Magic.

Recently, a coworker asked me if Taylor Swift was this generation's Madonna. I replied "no". We discussed it further and I explained that, while both are/were phenomenally popular, Madonna actually transformed the industry while Taylor has not. Taylor is far less artistic and creative and I compared her efforts to previous boy beds like Back Street Boys and Insync. Huge marketeers but only the flavor of the moment and nothing more. Taylor also has taken very few risks and has stayed on formula. My co-worker actually agreed with me. Grant it, neither of us loves or hates Taylor Swift and we are both over forty. LOL

Nothing at all? Finally Enough Love doesn't count? A lot of vinyl releases and digital streaming singles added. A ton of video remastering and a greatest hits tour that should have already started.

And she is a timeless goddess (when her eyebrows are not bleached). Lol

The rest of this year is really still the fortieth anniversary.

I would take that as a placeholder.

Part of the deal includes special promotion and appearances. I doubt that Madonna was up to promoting an event as large as a fortieth anniversary. Hopefully, now that she is better and not on active tour dury either.

150 seat theaters in Antartica.... Get it right.

Me too. It came today but I am at work.

Are you referring to Michael Jackson?

I actually love the American Life album. I prefer it to the Music album. Love Profusion... Nothing Fails... Intervention... Nobody Knows Me... Easy Ride... Die Another Day... X-static Process... Hollywood... There is fantastic material on the album. I am an American Life stan for sure but it is well crafted. It is phenomenal but not as a singles album. A listen from beginning to end serves it best.

American Life was definitely the turning point for American radio. I love the later albums but she was not even given a chance. Americans really were pissed off... and have stayed that way. Madonna was more issue based from that point on too and Americans overall prefer fluff to substance. Americans wanna play, not think. Madonna was asking people to think more and they really wanted to party. Just my opinion.

Song is Who's that Girl?

If they essentially ignore this major anniversary, they deserve all the hate that is coming.

The fans deserve remastered, expanded editions. We have been very loyal and made Madonna the biggest selling, living artist on the planet. We deserve a celebration.

Probably getting ready for the anniversary the following week. ! [Fingers crossed]

I bought many copies, including the sux vinyl set + six vinyl rainbow edition but.... Where the eff is Causing a Commotion? Lol

Love Profusion is actually a great song. Madonna had trouble with charting after American Life but her music has been stellar for the most part. Personally, I prefer Madonna's last three albums to her first three and I was definitely around and on board for them all. Lol

TY

Is this legit? I love it but I cannot tell if it is real? Seems well done.
