I hope she will not perform a too pretentious performance. Seeing her story on ig makes me a little worried with hashtag future and raging fires. Just the presence of her is so great, she doesn’t need an overtly complicated performance.
-
She's so hyped up
-
After a few listens:
* The bridge is great, love the airyness - although I'm not sure it works perfectly in a first single, I almost get the feeling the song would be a great outro to an album
* Maluma is def having a dominant role in the song, he kind of owns the chorus (this must be something new in Madonna history, that another artist gets that space in one of her songs)
* I'm sure the song will sound lovely in a good sound system, the production is low key but very on point. I can imagine it being played in bars etc these coming months
* The song makes me intrigued for the rest of the album. I have a feeling there will be sonic surprises

It is a grower - after the 4th listen I'm really into it

Thanks! Do we know around what time (European)?
-
Ok, can someone please recap, when and where is the song going to premiere tomorrow?
-
Nice, everything so far. And I like that she seems to be working with some very hot and creative people at the moment like @ibkamara and @dianakunst
Does anyone know if she's still with Livenation for the music release?

It's annoying how most discussions in this board are nowadays about some kind of victimisation about Madonna. Always poor Madonna, always freting that she will get bad comments. It is a sign of the times, I guess, just some years ago nobody was gloating on victimism or poor poor boo boo. I'm sick and tired and, frankly, disgusted.
I don't know if this was a comment on my comment, but just to clarify, if the sign of the times is that discussions in general tend to get polarized and black and white that was exactly my point.

aside from the Israeli thing, the million price tag to have her is also being thrown around in a shady way. im already noticing some critical comments on the radio "we hear a rich canadian-israeli wants to pay for the phenomenal (not artist, not singer?) madonna.. but she better not participate.. cuz if she doesn't win.. that would be so embarrassing.." and comments alluding to being a sellout.. on the other hand.. if the performance is absolutely amazing it could finally turn the tide and it would be a nice chance to get people to take her seriously as an artist again.. if the performance is otherworldly and one of the best in her career to prove the haters wrong, im all for it. if it's a standard M performance im not really into it.
I think the israeli issue will be much more controversial. There are examples of artists pulling out of events in Israel, Lana del Rey is one example (she was booked and ready), because of the politics surrounding the country.
But if she does it I'm sure the eurovision community will praise her, but unfortunately this will drown in the comments from people not engaged in the event.
-
I can see the backlash coming - Israel hosting this is in some circuits controversial. And in Britian, for instance, a public letter was written by prominent celebrities that wanted a boycott of the event.
-
There will be pan flutes.
Lead single - Pan Sexuality.

Okay, so... Some info I got from someone apparently in the know. It's not world shocking information, but interesting nonetheless and time will tell how trustworthy this info really is, but I decided to share it regardless. If only for us all to have something to discuss during the holidays:
- Do not expect anything in 2018.
- Official info will begin to be shared little by little in the first weeks of January.
- At the moment the definitive track listing is not done yet.
- She really put her heart and soul into this album. No fillers here.
- "Killers" is indeed a killer track.
- She didn't play it safe. She took risks musically and he really means RISKS. Some of the tracks people will be like "WOW, what is that?!" At first listen. Of course a couple of tracks are less innovative, more commercial. But even those are top notch.
- Some tracks you can't compare to any other music out there really, at least not that he knows of.
- The only thing is that it's not a very cohesive album as a whole. But the tracks are so out of this world that you couldn't care less about cohesiveness. but according to him, the album is not messy (as he thinks "Rebel Heart" was).
- It's no secret that there will be Latino influences on the album so to a certain extent people who love tracks like "Spanish Lesson" will be happy. But of course the Latino tracks do not sound like "Spanish Lesson". They are way better. The influences on this album are incredible.
- In his opinion, this is her best album since COADF.
Don't shoot the messenger...
Thank you for the info, very interesting. I'm just curious, where do some people here get this info, I mean who are these "in the know" people? I'm not judging the info, I'm just curious.

Is this old????
Possible video location?
Grabbing at straws?
Might be old, never seen it though. I find it interesting, somewhere inbetween T Richardson and Klein. I like toned-downdonna. Hopefully it’s new.

This photoshoot is everything, fantastic. But I forgot, was it Terry R that shot and B Åkerlund that styled it?

As a Beyoncé fan even I don't understand that. However during sociology and media studies Madonna came up a LOT in my studies. Especially to do with feminism. Madonna is a lot more widely respected than we realise. Especially in academia.
Ah, I have studied sociology too but never dealt with artists. But it's nice that you say that. I have just felt, and this is totally non-scientific, that many feminist women have a hard time understanding how to interpret Madonna, because she comes across as more complex with her personas over the years than say Beyonce. I like Beyonce too, as an artist, but I have never felt that she's a great feminist icon, her statements in that department are rather tedious and not so interesting.
-
Can someone explain to me how come Beyonce is a greater icon in many feminist circles than Madonna? It's just beyond me, I can not understand it.
-
It still feels so fresh, not dated at all.
Does anyone know who designed her clothes for the video? The red and the black dress are AMAZING.
-
Isn't her contract with Live nation over with this tour? If so, what do you think will happen next?
-
She's amazingly strong and unafraid. That's what all of this proves and what keeps me paying attention to her as a fan year after year.
-
The show was rated average in the swedish newspapers, but, her speech and Like a prayer has been widely praised here.
It's interesting, Aftonbladets journalist Kristin Lundell gave her show in Montreal 5 stars and she's been writing articles just recently about how relevant and important Madonna still is. However, when she comes to Stockholm another reviewer, a man, who has given her lukewarm reviews in the past years reviews her show, and is quite critical. The usual, she's cold, distant, a machine etc etc.
Well, it's the same everywhere, always the white, heterosexual man that get's the last word.

Sexy and sophisticated and jazzy and clubby. As Madonna.
Just wonderful.

When your lips are burning mine
And you take the time to tell me how you feel
When you listen to my words
And I know you've heard, I know it's real
Rain is what this thunder brings
For the first time I can hear my heart sing
Call me a fool but I know I'm not
I'm gonna stand out here on the mountain top
Till I feel your...

Those performances were not ”heal the world” performances. Bad examples.
