gonna dress u up reacted to ChrisK in Madonnas' success in later years
I have become 'woke' - I always judged Madonna's success on the US Charts - and it wasn't until I objectively looked at how she performed internationally that I realized, she's done amazing even in her mid 40's and 50's!
Let's look:
Hollywood - UK - No. 2! How amazing! No. 5 in Canada, 16 here in Australia.
Love Profusion - UK - No. 11, No. 3 in Canada and 25 here in Australia.
COAD Era - all singles did really well internationally!
Hard Candy Era - most singles did really well internationally and in the US - I mean GI2M - it got to No. 57 - not bad for a second single for her!
Celebration - No. 3 on the UK charts, No. 5 in Canada - and it charted in the US.
MDNA - that was a blip - GMAYL did well in the US but that was based on the deals at the time, but didn't fair too well internationally - and GGW was such an underrated hit!
Living for Love - despite BBC 1 not playing it, it still managed to get to No. 26 on the UK charts - not bad for a female pop star at the age of 56!
Medellin and Crave - Crave did better on the UK Charts at No. 51 - again, for a female pop start at 61 - with BBC 1 not playing her music - that's a great achievement!
I guess my point of this, is we are really narrow minded if we continue to judge her success on just America - she's doing great internationally and continues to do great internationally! I'm guilty of it - I remember during the AL ear - I was like, gosh she's not doing well in America - she's bombed. But, when I look back, she did amazing, I mean, Hollywood - No.. 2 on the UK Charts - how amazing!
If we want her to do well in America - those fans living in America need to stream the fuck outta her - I can't remember which song it was, but a recent one, that charted, it had something like 56 million unique streams in a week!
Peace and love!

A little levitating with our morning wake up...
I believe that you're for me, I feel it in our energy
I see it written in the stars
We can go wherever, so let's do it now or never
Baby, nothing's ever, ever too far
Glitter in the sky, glitter in our eyes
Shining just the way we are
I feel like we're forever, every time we get together
No, we're never gonna be apart

Just wanted to say that... do you think that Bedtime Story Brit Awards version is better than the album version?
I was watching the video today, and is so good, M's presence just make the song better, how she moves in the stage, the way she sang it... just so gorgeous!

You can't hurt me now
I got away from you, I never thought I would
You can't make me cry, you once had the power
I never felt so good about myself

gonna dress u up reacted to Glindathegood in Will Madonna Ever Have A Hit Single Again?
Very unlikely as long as streaming is included in the single charts. Has any older artist had a bit hit single since streaming was included? Everyone talks about Cher, but Believe was before the streaming era.
I personally think they should create a separate chart for the most streamed songs, but not include that in the main charts. For me I often stream stuff I’ve heard about to just hear what it sounds like out of curiosity not because I actually like it. I don’t think streaming is an accurate reflection of music people actually love.

gonna dress u up reacted to RinoTheBouncer in Madonna In the First Place of Billboard's Greatest Music Video Artists of All Time
It’s what she deserves and I’m glad she’s finally getting this recognition. She deserves nothing but No.1, especially in the visual and performance department.
Let’s face it, the woman did every role, every look, every idea, every aesthetic, every sound and every culture under the sun lol. Who even dared do what she did? The only ones who come close are Björk, Bowie, MJ, The Weeknd, Taylor Swift and Beyoncé.

It’s unfortunate that she doesn’t give a f about her videos at all. As much of a perfectionist she is, I’m shocked she isn’t the least interested in presenting her work in the best possible quality. #choices

gonna dress u up reacted to V*C in So beautiful in her new story
I love love LOVE when Madonna wears a hoodie.
I'm also surprised that she's wearing something from Rick and Morty. I love this show, but it's 100% stoner culture. It's not a kids show at all.
I wonder if she's more into weed or "grass" (lol) nowadays. Maybe the new bf is a stoner? NOT JUDGING AT ALL considering it's 8:43am over here and I already had a few puffs myself I know she's mentioned weed lots of time throughout her career, but recently it's like she's actually showing that... maybe she likes it? lol. It's like "goes to Jamaica once" and she's now Snoopdonna... WHICH I LOVE LOVE LOVE.

gonna dress u up reacted to Redha DBL in So beautiful in her new story
It may seems random but there's something i like about the way she looks in that little video she has posted in her story. I don't know, there's something that reminds of her face circa early 2000's, maybe the eyes, i don't know...
