  1. Incredibly overrated: Time Stood Still To Have And Not To Hold Little Star Masterpiece Love Spent Falling Free What It Feels Like For A Girl (Above & Beyond remix) Something To Remember (well, everything on I'm Breathless with the exception of Vogue) Somewhat overrated, but still fine: Human Nature Nothing Fails Mer Girl Just my opinion, don't hate me :-P
  2. Well, Confessions's non-singles are all performing well; even the divisive I Love New York and Push.
  3. You're partially right. But if we have a look at her most streamed albums and tracks, are we really surprised to see LAV, TB and COADF on top? And the various La Isla Bonita, Like a Virgin, Hung Up, Vogue, Frozen, Music on her top 20? I don't think so; and I also guess that top 20 won't change anytime soon. Yes, I was expecting higher numbers for Ray of Light and Music, I'm pleasantly surprised to see Sorry, Jump, Give It 2 Me and American Pie performing better than expected, but overall, both on Spotify and YouTube, the streaming numbers are favoring her most successful/popular hits. Also, the fact that some videos aren't getting more streaming because they were realeased before YouTube isn't holding up, sorry: apart from her '80s works, Frozen, Die Another Day, Take a Bow, Don't Tell Me, etc etc are all videos from the pre-YouTube era, and they are performing better than the various Hollywood, WIFLFAG and Human Nature - which despite its amazing video, was never a massive hit. Peace and love.
  4. In Italy the video was regularly aired, and it didn't generate any controversy: in fact, it literally came and went. And let's face it: the remix isn't doing great numbers because it's pretty generic and forgettable... as far as Erotica, Hollywood, Bad Girl and Human Nature are concerned, I'm not surprised either: great videos, but the singles didn't perform greatly on the charts as well as on the radio stations. Even though I like/love them, I've always felt that - due to the relative flops of Erotica and American Life - they didn't have any chance to become "real" classics. Even in the long term.
  5. WIFLFAG remix gets 1500/2000 streams per day: for a single promoted with a video, it's performing poorly. And on YouTube, the video isn't doing great numbers either. In few words, it didn't stand the test of time. https://kworb.net/youtube/artist/madonna.html
  6. It didn't sell a lot of physical copies, but when it comes to radio airplay, yes, Jump was pretty successful; just like Hung Up and Sorry, italian local radios regularly play it... I can't talk about other european countries, but if you have a look at Spotify numbers, it's among her 40 most streamed songs (top 30 if you ignore the double versions and the various remixes). On the other hand, we can't say the same about the mediocre numbers of Hollywood and WIFLFAG (in particular the remix that it's among her least streamed singles).
  7. I'm still surprised that we got Hollywood and Miles Away but not The Power of Goodbye... or Jump and Give It 2 Me that were massive in Europe.
  8. I think it's one of the worst Madonna songs, but ok...
  9. He wants to work with Madonna again? I hope NO! First, I don't want a Ray of Light 2 just like I don't want a Confessions 2; second, in 2000 Orbit's sound was already dated (Amazing and Runaway Lover are Music's weaker tracks); and third, his MDNA tracks were painful to listen to, including Masterpiece.
  10. I'd say that a lot of Madonna fans hate that cover (not me of course), but its streaming numbers show that general public loves American Pie.
  11. I actually like Hard Candy. Since its release.
  12. Considering the MASSIVE success of the title track, I'm surprised that it hasn't higher streaming numbers; actually ROL and Music are performing worse than Hard Candy...
  13. I would have preferred a video for WHY'S IT SO HARD; FEVER was nice but somewhat not necessary.
  14. Yes, both of them were two missed opportunities.
  15. I guess this fine song is a tasty appetizer for a "bigger" collaboration... a whole album would be very welcomed, and it could help Madonna's career and popularity after a string of disappointing failures.
  16. I will take the verve and the freshness of POPULAR every day of my life over this banal, pretentious, overrated bore :-)
  17. I like Hard Candy: I can't say it's among her best works, but at least it's a solid, "coherent" album with some killer tracks.
  18. Or total bore such as Masterpiece. And let's not forget other over-produced garbage such as Love Spent, inexplicably loved by several Madonna fans. Anyway, am I the only one who has noticed that the fans who praise those sh*tty songs are the same who treat with disdain countless good/great Madonna songs?
