    MarXus got a reaction from Confessions Lightside in Bedtime Stories 25th Anniversary (Album Facts)   
    This is incorrect.  She only spoke about touring, early on, but as early as December 1994, she was already focused on getting the Evita role.  No tour was in production yet.

    It's not true.  She mentioned she was going to tour, but it never materialized. The album came out in October.  By December, Take A Bow was released and that's when she sent the video and her letter to Alan Parker to play Evita.  Soon after she was hired for the role.  Initially she was planning to tour in Spring or Fall of 1995.  Her publicist suggested a smaller tour, but Madonna and her manager scrapped all plans to tour.

    Shep Pettibone was shelved for this project because he did not bring anything new to the table.  If I recall, she even issued a public apology or thanks for whisking him aside.

    I hope this works.  Here's the amateur footage from a fan who filmed "I Rise" on 2/5/20 when the the theater supposedly cut her power and lights went up.

    MarXus got a reaction from DJ N A in Bedtime stories album cover   
    Yeah, I specifically recall back in the day, that there was a Mtv News Report where they addressed the first pressings were a mistake and Madonna intended for herself to appear upside down on the cover, which in reality she wasn't. It's just how she was shot on the bed.
    I bought the album when it was first release, and I have it where she appears right side up.  It was soon after that I recall hearing it wasn't what she intended.

    So what?  She used one of his works for an official cover for BIM, and one for a promo for Rebel Heart DVD, yet some make it sound like she's got him on speed dial to do any artwork needed.  Not that I'm bothered by his work at all, but it's weird how some take small incidences in her career and make it out as something she does all the time.  LOL!

    I don't think it got as far as that.  Does Geffen even have the rights to it?  I know the song was written with intention for the film, but do we know if it even got as far as it being licensed to the film or Geffen?
    Edit:  Add to sort of answer my own question:

    I just looked the song up and the song is registered in the Library of Congress through Warner Bros.  There is no certainty that the song was actually used in the film if even filmed, but you would think that if it ended up being cut out, it would have eventually surfaced by now.

    MarXus got a reaction from RayofPrayers in No hating but...what happened to Madonna after 2007?   
    Yeah, I see this thread getting ugly.  All I am going to say is; even if there was something amiss with her these days, we've had a good run of entertainment and music from her. 4 decades and not many entertainers can claim that.
    I don't necessarily agree things have gone down hill for her in the past years.  I also don't think her management is really the problem. After all, she's totally in charge.  I know some hate Guy O., but he's been wanting to do more with her past work (like most fans want), but Madonna is preventing that from happening. She's always had a keen sense in business as Guy O.  Of course, nothing is perfect.  Nothing is always guaranteed.  Though, she's hardly living in the poor house.  She's still touring and recording music that she wants to record despite what some fans think.  In the end, it's her ship.  It's bound to hit some icebergs.  No one can bat a 1000 all the time.  I think some fans get stuck in an era or two and enjoy and want her to keep producing that same sort of magic.  Sorry, that's not Madonna.  She evolves and I think some fans have a hard time doing the same. All I know is that I still enjoy her very much.  That's what I try to concentrate on.  I don't believe worrying about Madonna's career at this point is something we should concern ourselves with especially when there are far more important things to worry about.  I prefer to enjoy what she gives us, than pick apart what isn't perfect. After all, I've enjoy so much from her, more than not.
    What's next?  I'm sure something fantastic and enjoyable like all her past work.  I'm sure she's going to take some time to get her health back on track, and then probably look into doing a film.  Then an album again.

    I'm sure it's not real (*and it isn't!), but thought I'd post it as you never know.  Also, I do believe it will go to some streaming service before it is released on a DVD/BLU-Ray format.  
    And that nonsense at MTRIBE where Madonna was unhappy with the Lisbon footage is ridiculous and untrue. Several nights were filmed. It's been reported along with the company filming it.   I think it's still too soon for any info.  Madonna probably hasn't even seen the concert footage yet.  At earliest, we may get this next September.  I'm hoping sooner, at least the streaming version of it.

    Again, most of those fans who aren't loving it, are those who haven't even seen it.  LOL!! They are basing their opinion off the logistics of the tour, which obviously didn't sway the people who went to the show.  Fans or not, most are saying that they had a wonderful time and it was a great show. The critics in the media also have been pretty positive about the tour.  Honestly, I can't see how anyone can say it's the "worst" when they haven't seen it?

    Yeah, when I first saw that it was available, I thought that it may be around that price.  When I saw the actual amount, I was like "Fuck that!". Still, it's supposed to be a limited edition item, so I can see why they are trying to sell it for a hefty price.

    Oh I see. I thought you meant Madonna.  But still, I wasn't aware that Queen Latifah did this.  So yeah, if she was doing remixes for someone like David Bowie, there certainly is a chance she could have done with Madonna.  If it exists, I'd love to hear it.  I wasn't a fan of her music back then, but she does have a good voice.

    MarXus got a reaction from rlittler81 in Unpopular Madonna Opinions   
    While I agree to a point, but in a way it was "her last great record" commercially.  From there, it has gone down hill, and that is why I think people think of it as "her last great record."   But to me, commercial success doesn't measure a great album.  I love Rebel Heart so  much. I feel that is a great record too.  Hard Candy is another fun record, but still none of them seem to have that something extra special that Confessions seemed to have.  There is something about a number of her albums that really make them shine more than others.  I feel the same with albums like Ray of Light and Like A Prayer.   They all definitely mark a time that she really went all out and put her heart and soul into.  Not to say, she hasn't on other albums, but you can really feel the passion, the messages and love poured into them.  You can really listen to those albums from start to finish and still be "wowed" by it all.  Also, if you think about it, those three albums really made a huge impact among her fan base and gaining new fans.  I've yet to have that sort of feeling for her albums since Confessions.

    I don't think she cares either.   Personally, there are some pics (if I was her) I wouldn't have post, but I am not sure she's taking it so seriously.  We know she prefers Instagram as a way to communicate with her fans.  To me, it makes sense being she's such a visual artist.  I think she just has fun with it.
