All this chatter about Madonna's "horrible album run" is ludicrous. There are multiple genres out there beyond dance and pop, and they're rich and interesting and stimulating. Most artists can only dream of a building a back catalogue like hers. Get a grip!
@getulioabelha Most of the allocated money would've been spent on the 4 Minutes video. Madonna doesn't go over budget. And hey, you've got Pharrell looking fine in this clip. What else do you need? ๐
@insidethegroove Yep. Some of the melodies remind me of the Like a Prayer album. But Stuart's production sounds really confident, too. And M's health scare has obviously affected her approach to music. This is not her last album. If anything, it's a reset.
The best lyrics are those that are simple, relatable and seem like a bunch of words that were always arranged in that order.
L.E.S. Girl ticks these boxes.
@insidethegroove School. It sounds like nothing she's done before - the groove, the production, the staccato melody.
I Feel So Free is a classic; it'll be played at gay clubs for years to come.
If Fragile is ever used in a TV show or film, it will be massive.
But yes, every track is killer.
Remembering the wonderful Mel Appleby of Mel & Kim who would have been 60 today. Mel died in 1990 aged just 23 ๐ Her legacy lives on for all who remember how amazing Mel & Kim were despite it all ending too soon
Amateur hour over @Qobuz. Currently selling Madonna's CONFESSIONS II - The Film Edition. But no-one can download the film due to a corrupt link. AI agent doesn't understand the issue - funny that!
Hey @WarnerRecords, anything you can do to assist this struggling startup? ๐ ๐ผ
