    Of all the singles that are not in the setlist right now, I may say that You'll See, Music and 4 Minutes were big hits here in Brazil, because they are (or were at the time they were released) pretty well-known by GP and they were played extensively by MTV and the radios.

    I mean I can see about 6 lanes there. I don't think having a whole troupe of people looking to your right and to your left while crossing makes sense. Imagine her sneaking out from the Hotel into the street to the stage back door like some seedy nightclub. She will be mugged or run over before she reach the middle aisle.

    Also, consider that the song was released 35 years ago. It holds the same iconic impact on pop culture as the use of "Running Up the Hill" in "Stranger Things." Older generations vibe with it, while younger generations recognize or discover it, helping to keep it alive.
    The song fits well in the movie trailer because Deadpool plays with irreverence and the breaking of social norms, much like a big meme. It heavily relies on pop culture references, similar to past uses like the Flashdance's chair scene. The idea of it being a gospel romance song, combined with the lyrics, works with the on-screen reunion of Wolverine and Deadpool—renowned enemies who became besties in the comics. It's smart and funny and aligns with the character lore's sense of humor and storytelling.

    It seems like it’s hard to understand unless you’re familiar with the series. I’m not so it seemed random to me. Although I am all for Madonna in anything

    It works in the trailer because the song is a message from Marvel to its fans (finally, the X-Men are coming 'home' after so much 'prayers' from the fans). Deadpool and She-Hulk are two Marvel characters who always break the fourth wall.

    it's an album that I appreciate more picking the songs out of it and now from a distance. Mind you I never care much about Bedtime Stories until quite late.
    As others comment I think the big crash was due to be after the electronic evolution from ROL onwards. She was playing with dance-pop sounds and bringing something different with each album, then she landed into generic 00's sound.
    But I never like 4 minutes and I can't listen to the album straight. I like 2 songs then I don't care about the next and so on.

    Mercy is definitely playing live. Those supposedly "unplayed" notes are actually percussion sounds from the backing track she's playing to. The five or six piano notes heard in the studio recording before the first verse begins are omitted in every single performance on this tour. 
    However, she's not playing an actual acoustic instrument. It's an average-sounding keyboard built into a mock-up of a grand piano body. If you look closely, there's no functioning pedals but simply a standard keyboard pedal hooked to the built-in keyboard she's playing. There's also no hammer and damper movement whatsoever during her performance. 
    To properly mic an actual piano for one single performance would be a nightmare scenario for any sound engineer. In order for an acoustic piano to pick up as little surrounding noise as possible (sound disturbance being immense given the position of the B-stage and the nearly 360 degrees placement of the sound system), the lid would need to be closed at all times. There are specific piano microphones that perform miraculously under such circumstances and are able to bypass a lot of distracting resonance from drums on stage and audience noise, but obviously the lid is wide open for most of the performance. 
    Settling for a MIDI-controlled mock-up makes sense since wheeling around an actual grand piano from underneath the stage wouldn't be economical due to its weight, transport needs and tuning delicacy. In an unstable A/C (or lack thereof ) environment, a grand piano would detune within minutes and sound off very quickly after being tuned. 
    That said, Mercy certainly is a very good and notably skilled player. She's very consistent in her interpretation of Mayer's "Le regret" but she does add a little extra nice grace note here and there from time to time. She also plays with a sense of urgency and fervour that would be nice to hear on a future studio album of the Madonna family band...

    I agree
    I became a fan when Music was released in 2000 and for me it was a fantastic ride Music => American Life => COADF... For me, she was getting better with each album. And then Hard Candy came and I was shocked. Madonna following trends so cheaply without anything new?! What the hell is this? 
    But over years I've started to like Hard Candy more and more. Now when I look back to it, I am like "yeah, this is how exactly pop music sounded back then, and 4 Minutes defines that era of 10s music perfectly". 
    I am not saying it is up on par with her best works, but it is not down with worst ones either. I can now listen every song from that album and enjoy it (well, exception being Spanish Lesson which is not her worst song ever only because Bday exists)
