    TheGoth got a reaction from drivebitch in Madonna on Instagram / Facebook / Twitter + other Social Media   
    Madonna currently trending on Twitter for all the wrong reasons again. I'd hold off on that tour announcement and do some damage control because aside from going viral with a song nobody really cares about, she's really at a low point in her career with no discernible hits for a very long time and a public image that does not resonate with the general public. She really has backed herself into a corner and it feels like the early 90s again.

    It's coming from a extreme right wing media, saying that she adopted her children to “expose them to homosexual and transgender propaganda”. Probably related to David Banda wearing a dress (because they're quoting that situation), and using a supposed accusation from Malawi's government.
    There's not a single serious media reporting on this: just blogs from random people. While some of “official” sites that are talking about it, are affiliated to the Russia government, so… be careful with what you read and with what you share.
    If you see her trending, it's because the algorithm knows that you're interested in her and prioritizes content about M. Not because she's actually trending for everyone or something important has happened.

    Maybe this specific story, but it's not rightwing media driven disliking for Madonna and the hate feels incredibly wide spread as of late.
    Outside of the fandom, it's extremely rare for me to encounter anyone who has a positive thing to say about Madonna, and almost 100% of the time, negative sentiment is rooted in her Instagram antics. This reputation isn't going to be an easy thing to overcome, and she needs the audience outside of the fandom to sell a successful tour. 
    Look at the state of Madonna forums. There's a wide schism between the fans embracing Madonna of the 2020s and other fans who think this is a low point in her career. She's struggling to even keep the die hard fans on board.
    Fully agree with @LoveSong -- The focus this year should be on image rehabilitation and great PR investment in reinstating her brand as the Queen of Pop. How that's done, I don't have the answers...but her status in the pop world is sorely bruised at the moment.
    At the end of the day, Madonna is partially a brand. And her brand used to be rooted in quality, professionalism, athleticism, mystique, and top notch pop music. Madonna of today doesn't really seem to maintain the integrity of this brand, and it's understandable that a lot of interest is waning. The Madonna of the 2000s and early 2010s would have BROUGHT IT for a Greatest Hits Tour. Now? Eh....let's see.
    This doesn't seem like the right time for her to tour, but she'll do what she wants to do. Just hope this is a resounding success and doesn't end in embarrassment and fiasco...she deserves so much more than that as a bookend to her career.

    DrownedMadonna just announced from a very close source to god that the tour name is In The Midnight Hour I Can Feel Your Power as a reference to Like A Prayer and the hour at which each show will start

    I was very disappointed with how the single was released. They didn't utilise any of the gorgeous images from the video on the front cover but instead recycled from Secret. The track listings were boring and could've done with some really great remixes by David Morales, Todd Terry and / or Frankie Knuckles who all were adept at transforming ballads into dancefloor smashes. Last, but not least, a previously unreleased track would've been a nice bonus too.

    No. Bring on Madonna with *any* actually competent musical director who can do justice to her back catalogue in a live environment. Not the cretins she's been employing since the Sticky and Shit. Or do you just want to waste your money on another shitty setlist, rehashes of the same trash and subpar reworkings and mashups?

    TheGoth got a reaction from DoneGone in Donna De Lory - "Just A Dream" finally on streaming   
    I would've preferred more songs from Madonna in this vein. There's a rawness to it that follows on from tracks like Burning Up, Gambler, Over and Over, Dress You Up, White Heat and much of the production on the Who's That Girl tour. Guitar driven definitely. Til Death Do Us Part is great lyrically, but I would've swapped out the production for something more along the lines of Just A Dream.

    It’s the “middle 8” actually. The bridge is the part that takes it from the verse to the chorus despite years of me thinking otherwise. It can be both but song writers use these terms.
