I'm trying to sell one of my tickets for N2 but Ticketmaster's not letting me.

Maybe her and her team were banking on a summer/fall tour to eat up the back half of 1989 and decided not schedule additional promo but then Pepsi pulled out and she did Dick Tracy so they had to scramble so the album sales didn't free-fall and we ended up with Oh Father, Dear Jessie and Keep It Together as singles. Also I feel like they knew Oh Father was too risky internationally to release as a physical single. Also, maybe the public decided to abandon the album because it looked like Madonna abandoned it. Not even three months after the release and Madonna abandoned the euro chic, natural brunette look she had originally adopted and went back to blond and old Hollywood glamour for Dick Tracy. Didn't help that she essentially abandoned it again by allowing Vogue to be released and cannibalize the sales of a LAP single. The tour was probably the only thing keeping LAP on the charts because that album disappeared almost Immediately following the North American leg

Honestly as long as the show doesn't get cut short by noise by-laws or anything like that, idc. Like I'm already planning on not leaving my house the day after.

I think it was less obsession and more necessity. She tried to semi-retire the back catalogue with DWT. Like we got Secret, You'll See, Frozen, ROL, BS, DTM, and Music instead of a lot of the 80s and 90s stuff. I stand by my belief that had AL not underperformed she wouldn't have loaded RIT with as many older hits as she did. Also, as much as she despises a lot of her older songs, she knew that those songs were the ones that were more likely to be remembered by/a bigger incentive for ticket buyers than stuff from 1994-onwards just purely because of a desire for nostalgia. For a member of the GP, if they had to choose between getting tickets for a show with Holiday, Into the Groove and Express Yourself or a show with Frozen, 4 Minutes and Take a Bow, they're most likely going towards the former. I do think however that her own stubbornness has prevented us from getting more great updated takes of her 1994-present discography on tour. MXT alone could've pulled and reinvented so much from BS, ROL and AL.

Finally Enough Talk: 50 Questions With Madonna
topic replied to Husam Elzien's Shoful in News ✖ Discussion
When she talks about Rebel Heart having too many collabs does she mean the producers? Because 3 out of 19 tracks having features isn't messy? But 19 producers? Yeah, that was excessive. -
MADONNA & STUART PRICE DISCUSS HUNG UP ~ OUT NOW

After hearing her do the Classroom version of Music on Fallon, I'm not surprised. Take away the autotune and choreography and M can still give us a good vocal. -

I would love that too. Honestly, they should've brought back Madame X Radio on Sirius for FEL and updated it with commentary for all the number ones. Mike Dean could never -
Madonna got into New York with $35 and a dream and her and Shep wrote Vogue after Madonna spent a day at the beach which turned out to be her dressing room on Broadway and Shep came up with the instrumental in 1987 after creating Janet's Miss You Much remix. I love how he mentioned that he was surprised that Beyonce's team didn't ask for the masters and they just put new verses over the original (which is not all the way true) as if the multi-tracks haven't been leaked on the internet for years. Literally, she just needed to call up M to get her approval and Emily could've sent the MEGA link with it from this site for all we know

Britney & Madonna collaboration may be happening..........
topic replied to Husam Elzien's xavier in News ✖ Discussion
It's a cash-in on Elton's part. Britney doesn't need him for people to buy her music but he kind of needs her if he wants a high charting hit like he did with Dua and Cold Heart. If she reached out first that's great but 100% if Britney didn't go through what she did, Elton would've declined a collab and probably would be shading her vocals like he did Madonna and Janet. -
The production value dropped after the Rock Witchu Tour. The setlists started being recycled. State of the World was the beginning of slight changes but her current festival circuit setlist actually makes me excited. I think it comes down to the same issue that M has/had: her creative director/ musical director was putting her in a repetitive rut instead of trying to push her forward slightly. M could easily do a Kylie-style show. More emphasis on vocals with light choreo and sauntering around the stage. Plus, the only reason I use Kylie is because she's the only person (other than M) that I can think of who actually reworks her back catalogue to sound current.

What we'll actually get: Candy Shop Human Nature Medellin Frozen (any of the remixes) Vogue Holiday (if we're lucky) but most likely another Madame X song

Can this be the beginning of the Madonnaissance era, please? I'm talking fresh and back to basics. TikTok is positioning her to have a good starting point for it.
