    The Confessions Tour was simply way more fun, her sound was amazing for its time and she was really on fire.

    Yeah, I was about to recommend the same site. On discogs you're pretty sure to get the right version. Amazon is also extremely overpriced for secondhand items, Ebay listings are often lacking and even wrong.

    Why you don't check Discogs.com? You can buy any version you want from every album as they're all catalogued

    I don't think any of M's devices were hacked, but do correct me if I'm wrong. It's more likely that someone got access to a cloud service used my her and her team.

    I don't know about you, but I expected this to just scratch the surface of the Top 20 from Day 1. While this autobiographical ballad (with a slightly pretentious production) is amazingly beautiful,  with hurtful power driving Madonna's pleasantly gritty voice. A true testament to her artistry during her Like a Prayer era, I would argue this is among, if not the, best ballad of her career.

    The underrated single of ROL. It had a really flawless video, and it's production is perfect. However, when I think of it's one performance, I think just that one was enough for this single. No live rendition will be able to match the fluidity of her studio voice or recreate the magic of the album version. Sorry about it. It made it as far as I expected it, and I'm ok to say goodbye to it here.

    This was NOT the one I expected go the farthest from Bedtime Stories. I love me some trance, so I fell in love with this song within the first three seconds. The fact it was written by Bjork made me love it even more. The video was triptastic, which was great, and the lyrics are all ethereal and Bjorky. Her voice is dreamlike here, and she managed to sneak this into an R&B led album flawlessly.

    @@devilpray has just cemented himself as my #1 member (I'm making a lot of judgments based on this rate, btw). Who doesn't love a good S&M romp? This song delivers all that and more. All the sex with the class S.E.X. lacks, for better or worse. I think the Erotica album as a whole is underrated, so I'm SO glad this song, with it's porny bassline and it's steamy vocals made it this far (should've gone farther, but whatever).

    A song I DEFINITELY expected in the Top 10, but I'm glad it's not. It's a great song, don't get me wrong, it's just not my favorite. I really like the innuendo of the whole thing, and it inspired awesome performances, but as a whole the song just isn't as memorable as some of her others. Catchy as hell though.

    This.I used to be a very active on certain Madonna forums about 10 years ago. But it was no longer fun when some people were more insane than the average Mariah Carey fan.Madonna - the person and her music - is something to discuss, to admire, to love, and/or to dislike. She's not a God.

    The moment a fanbase becomes a majority of people just saying "YASSSSSSSSS" to everything and thinking everything's fantastic is when it loses its grip on reality and ventures into the land of delusion.

    I love Madonna, and have had very little to complain about during this era. Yeah okay so the Living For Love video wasn't "amazing", but it was okay. I didn't feel I needed to complain about it - I just lost interest in it pretty quickly to be honest.

    I absolutely ADORED Living For Love, but i was extremely disappointed that it didn't have a properly designed cover for the single. It's almost like they forgot, or couldn't be bothered. I dunno. But as a fan, I think I have the right to complain about it. I bought the single, I paid for a product. If i found fault with it, then I think i'm allowed to voice my opinion.
     
    Hasn't Madonna taught us - express yourself, don't repress yourself?? :wink:

    "Negativity" is subjective. I think that a lot of fans have struggled this era, and had a hard time with a lot of things. Living For Love "flopping", the album not hitting number 1 in the US or the UK, and all the shitty press that she's got.

    People are allowed their opinion, and they're allowed to complain. It only makes matters worse when you get people complaining about people who are complaining. It's a bit hypocritical.

    Surely what matters is what YOU think of what Madonna's currently doing. If you like it, then that's the important thing. If someone else doesn't like it, then that's their prerogative. Telling them to stop being "negative" or whatever won't change anything.
