Which songs make you think "Madonna CAN SING."
topic replied to Candy Perfume Boy's gst6662000 in News ✖ Discussion
I’ve read that she had singing lessons as far back as 1979 when she spent six months in Paris. Camille Barbone paid for further lessons in 1980-81. and she again had vocal training for the Virgin tour to sustain multiple performances. vical traisning is totally normal in her profession, and training covers many vocal styles and techniques. i think the Sondheim songs in late 1989 were the earliest theatrical and technical sounding style we heard. Agree with a post above that this technical style feels a little more detached and less emotive. I still love it though -
Madonna: A Rebel Life - is it worth reading?
topic replied to Candy Perfume Boy's Lucas B. in News ✖ Discussion
I thought it became very formulaic by the end and I was willing it to finish. it was nice to read about the contemporary artistic and political context and value of Madonna’s cultural contribution, but the narrative style and structuring got boring by halfway. I only kept going because I’d started. -

Except Madonna didn’t really write this song. She took a demo, and changed a word to claim a third. it’s an example of how Madonna as a producer can rework something and elevate it, which is a talent itself. -

It’s beautiful but definitely dated. what are the chances of a decent scan of the cover? -

WHO'S THAT GIRL IN BLURAY IN SPAIN ON JUNE 6!!!!!
topic replied to Candy Perfume Boy's Frank in News ✖ Discussion
this thread is worth a look with regards to Spanish Blu-Rays. Many are without question unlicensed releases by their original studio owners, but that doesn’t mean the picture and sound quality will be automatically bad. for example; True Lies comes from the original digital theatre masters, and is still to have an international official release. Others do come from HD TV broadcasts... So we will have to wait and see what this one looks like. https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=299201 -

Thanks. I’ve ordered one too! I was happy with my Spanish copy of Shanghai Surprise on Blu-ray, which also hasn’t appeared anywhere else to my knowledge -

I’m amazed there’s not been an I house CD with this anywhere. They must have made one during the 2001 or 2007 back ups -

The edit is of the unreleased Reggie Lucas production. the album version (also same as You Can Dance) is a remix by Jellybean done in 1983. -

I’d be inclined to agree with this. Given that loads of older albums are being remastered in atmos I think this could be what they’re up to in the studio. -

Do you really think that Madonna hates her back catalogue?
topic replied to Candy Perfume Boy's Aiwa08 in News ✖ Discussion
Me too. There is an interview where she discusses being in Paris in 1979 and having the opportunity for a manufactured pop career with successful producers. She left that because she said she felt she needed to learn the craft and earn her way to being musical. She went back to poverty and living hand to mouth living in a synagogue free whilst learning drums. she was also a regular of the arts scene and has been clear about artistic expression and artistic integrity as both a performance artist and musician. I think that game was certainly a goal, but creative artistic drive was also a significant motivation.
