her face when she looks at David 🤣

Agree 100%.

Hey… certain words are setup to automatically require moderation approval. I think “autism” might be one of them as some people will use it in a negative context as an insult although I can’t see the words that have been chosen. Only @Jackie can. We don’t seem to have a problem with anyone abusing this word so we could possibly remove it from list.

All three share the same rhythmic pattern but musically they are all different. The Gaga one is just the baseline, and the Katy Perry one is musically more simple than Vogue. It was common to use consecutive minor thirds or major thirds to achieve the rave sound as there were pre sets on keyboard synths where you just pressed one key and it played a chord for you, but Vogue is little more musically sophisticated. I dont remember exactly what it's doing, but I think the verse and chorus are in different keys/modes which gives the chorus that darker sound. A Madonna song that uses the more simplistic rave sound is Thief of Hearts in the "you do it, you take it" part.

What bank commercial?

Did something happen?

SEX Book 2

It’s so strange that she holds onto that demo for some reason. Or maybe Stuart Price thinks that’s the original song since he did the confessions one and possibly the new one.

That happened to me back in 08 at Roseland. I went out and bought a 500 camera and didn't know how to use it. Took the most amazing pictures of the crowd in front of me with a blurry Madonna in the back ALL NIGHT. And then in Washington Square Park in 2015 I took video, except I wasn't paying attention and every time I pressed record I was actually pressing Stop. and vice versa....I got nothing of Madonna and alot of my inner pocket. I felt so dumb afterwards.

Do all the non English speaking fans know that she pronounces Revolver as Re-Vulva to reference her vagina? Just curious.

Such an odd choice for Holiday promo. I’ll take it tho.

Haha, she’s probably not even on this tour… This one that’s always featured… or feels like she is.

I don't know why, I thought it was that French dancer.

Are there photos anywhere, I wanna see....

So you really ARE a girl!!!

More times than I have digits to count on.

Was he a blond Russian woman? I've heard about her.

Is this a weird part of the show? She just listing her sexual body count.... I haven't watched this yet but it seems very strange.

Did you look at the Hung Up video? There’s multiple angles, black and white thrown in…

So... I think alot of people felt that way at the time, but looking back now it's easy to see that it was brilliant and ahead of its time. Name another performance from that very show.... I'll wait. There's always resistance to changes in the music industry, just look at Hall and Oats talking about how they didn't like music videos cuz they didn't wanna have to become "actors" in 1985 or whenever that was. Having an element of shock wasn't too common at this time except for maybe Britney tearing off her clothes to a nude bodysuit a short time before this. Eminem may be another example of what was to come as far as shock value in performance, but he did it so well that people didn't even see it as shock. Being labeled homophobic and then obviously willfully participating in having Sacha Baron Cohen's bare ass plopped in his face was also a brilliant performance he just didn't do it as a musical performance. It wasn't long after this that Janet flashed her boob. Not brilliant, but people still remember it and talk about it. In fact the entire show was eclipsed by those 3 seconds. A star studded show reduced to a nipple. Flash forward to Lady Gaga and her entire career became shock. and there is a definite line in the music industry before Gaga and after Gaga when EVERY SINGLE ARTIST was doing EVERY SINGLE THING they could to shock the audience. It's not enough to just stand there and sing your hit song. You have to also do trapeze. Squirt whip cream out of your boobs. Kiss your same sex dancer. Twerk with a big foam finger. It's not enough to wear a gown, you have to wear raw meat and 75 inch heels and a blue wig. I think it's mostly cooled off although Sam Smith and Kim Petras and their devil performance was most likely trying to achieve this, but I think the audience is too ready for it. Shock isn't as shocking anymore. We expect it. but it all started with Madonna. Arguably with her first VMA performance when she PURPOSEFULLY rolled around on the ground and humped the floor. At the time people thought she was crazy... in time, everyone would be humping the floor with their asses out. The power of Madonna is that she doesn't limit herself or her brand to what has worked in the past. She sees what's happening and adapts. A lesbian kiss was being performed by that girl group, I think maybe even at the VMAS before 2003. Madonna doesn't scoff at what's being done, she says.... how can I do this but make it bigger. When she talks about the kiss she says it's part of the narrative of the performance ... She's the groom, Britney and Christina were the brides blah blah blah... bullshit, she knew exactly what she was doing. Listen to the music... if they didn't kiss at that moment what would fill those seconds? How would the crowd have reacted if she had come out and sang the album version of Hollywood like this: It might also be worth noting that she hasn't performed on the VMAS since then, with the exception of the EVMAS in 2005 and her asses performance in 2021.

I think this person is responsible for some/all of the video content on tour but possibly also for the tour film? Slide over to the Hung Up clip and there are many angles stitched together, obvious color adjusting and effects applied that seems a little too polished for just a casual instagram post. https://www.instagram.com/p/CzZDxGXuczd/?igshid=bXZ0eGF6MWF3ZzU5 We've also no doubt all seen the promo video she released from opening night that is definitely professionally filmed/edited, perhaps just for promo, but maybe they have plans to release a film sooner than usual? Maybe follow in the footsteps of Taylor and Beyonce and release it right after the tour ends. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CybGCbIocdm/?igshid=bW1rdzI3am93cnlj Either way... It looks good.

I wonder if humping her shaw helped push the shoe on a little tighter.

I don't think people realize that William Orbit brought Guitars and atmosphere.... thats it. He had a certain sound that took the demos to a more current (1998), cohesive sound. He wasn't the brains (Melody, Harmony) behind the record. He was used as a remixer like Shep for Immaculate.
