Reputation from Jaawsshhh - Page 8

Jaawsshhh got a reaction from LikeAMelody in Thank you, Madonna. July 11, 2020

Not sure if this has been done, but, let's all just say our thank you's to Madonna.
I've been asked before as to why am I a fan of Madonna or like her. That she's a bitch and a horrible person, etc. I could never find the words to answer it. I guess below would be my best way...
I've been a fan since I was a kid, maybe 3 or 4? I've always connected to Madonna for some odd reason and was so drawn to her music, music videos and anything to do with her really. As I got older, I gained to appreciate her artistry even more. And also her being an ally. She proved to me that it was ok to be weird, to be gay, be creative, to have a masculine and feminine side and to not give a shit. I could go on and on and I'll probably think of other things, but thank you Madonna. I doubt you come to this forum (cos you'd shut us down probably lol) but thank you for everything you could give to this 35 y/o gay man. Thank you for fighting for love, equality so people like myself don't have to be ashamed of who we are. And for making me have the best memories as a sissy kid dancing to your music

Jaawsshhh got a reaction from Kieran in What Is Your Worst Madonna Albums? July 8, 2020

I stand by my statement above, but I kind of wanted to dive deeper as why. Please note I'm going to give lots of praise to these albums as far as production and creativity.
With Madame X, what is/was lacking is the cohesiveness. The album feels as if the shuffle button were hit right when they were printing the album. And as much as I love lots of songs, some could have been left out (this was the biggest issue with RH). But I will say, this is Madonna's best album as a creative artist. She finally stopped following trends from Hard Candy onward. I made a somewhat cohesive tracklist on Spotify for kicks:
God Control
Medellin
Crave - sometimes I replace it with the Tracy Young remix
Addicted
Future
Batuka
Killers Who Are Partying
Faz Gostoso *
Extreme Occident
Dark Ballet - the second half of the song really annoys me :(
Come Alive *
Beautiful Scars
Bitch I'm Loca *
I Don't Search I Find
I Rise (Tracy Young's Pride Mix)
Looking For Mercy
* = deluxe/bonus tracks. And yes I included 2 RH songs. They really flow with this tracklist. I would have added the 3 other songs but they aren't on Spotify (I do own the CD tho)

Rebel Heart...the leak did hurt the album and perspective on it sadly. The demos sounded amazing as is and it's terrible M and her team had to rush to re-mix most the songs. Over time, I grew to enjoy the album with thanks to the RHT. As stated above, it has way too many songs. I'm good with fewer songs that are strong than a large album with only a handful of solid songs. Sadly, I would have eliminated Body Shop, Best Night and Veni Vidi Vici from the tracklist and saved them as b-sides for CD singles.
Speaking of singles, the RH singles were great choices too. But I would have released these:
Living For Love/Rebel Heart (Acoustic demo)
Ghosttown
Bitch I'm Madonna
Wash All Over Me (original version with Avicii and have the album version as a remix)
Unapologetic Bitch
I would also replace some of the mastered album tracks with their demo form too.

Not even sure my creative mind could save MDNA LOL. It was produced amazingly, not gonna lie. It's very polished and sleek, which I love. But some of the songs are just too A.) Ridiculous or B.) Sound too much alike. I know this was supposed to be her post divorce album, and I sense the music/rhythm is supposed to represent her anger (because the beats on the album are very angry and aggressive). But part of me wishes there were a few more songs with emotion - which is a big reason I adore Falling Free.
I'm very iffy on having I'm Addicted, I'm A Sinner, Superstar and Some Girls on the album. I tend to want to take them out but when I listen to them, I somewhat enjoy them? IAS is probably the most listenable out of those 4 to me and sounds different too. I would most definitely add Beautiful Killer to the main tracklist.

Once again i'm in minority but this :

Jaawsshhh reacted to Holger in Did M Intentionally Want Two Forbidden Loves? July 8, 2020

Kylie Minogue, "Love At First Sight" (1988 and 2001).

Jaawsshhh reacted to Enrico in Did M Intentionally Want Two Forbidden Loves? July 8, 2020

"The one that got away" was changed in "Addicted" to avoid confusion with the Katy Perry track, but did she remember she had "I'm addicted" on her previous album?

Jaawsshhh reacted to Redha DBL in What Is Your Worst Madonna Albums? July 7, 2020

Exactly like me.
MDNA : Because it's a collection of disposable pop tracks recorded by a Madonna who's soul and mind at the time were into making a movie and not into making an album. This is the only album were almost all the tracks were already already existing by other demo singers. As Orbit said she just came to put her vocals between other projects. Even in a supposed personnal track like "I fucked up" she sings like the song is about pink elephants flying in the sky...
HARD CANDY : Not that bad but just came two years too late. The Timbaland era was coming to an end when M jump on the (late) bandwagon... and yes, it's also the first she literally jumped on a bandwagon without adding anything new to the mix. Also that horrible artwork...
LIKE A VIRGIN : An iconic album in the way that it put Madonna to superstardom worldwide but i have to say that this is the album that has aged the most. The debut album release two years before sounds fresh even today. The artwork picture is sublime though.
