I was gonna buy the vinyl,but I've heard reports from other fans that the sound quality isn't very good.
-
please Madonna,keep the straight hair for awhile.It looks fantastic!
-
At first,I thought it was a cute,charming song,but it wears thin after repeated listenings.Good thing it was kept off the album.
-
At the end of "Take A Day",Pharrell tells Madonna, "you so nasty"
-
"Iconic" should be the third single,released in the summertime.
-
I love "Take A Day".That song has a certain charm to it.
-
"Iconic" would be the perfect opening song
-
I think Madonna should announce the Australian dates immediately.She would sellout the shows instantly and there would be alot of hype and (positive) media attention.
-
I sorta feel bad for the artists,producers and songwriters who worked on the album.Their contributions aren't even being credited for the world to see.This is ridiculous.
-
"Madonna Tour 2015" is trending on Yahoo right now in the US.
I noticed that,too.Perhaps it means that there is alot of 'new' interest in her tour?
-
She might aswell of brought back Sean Penn
That's a good idea,actually! Can you imagine all the media hype and speculation it would generate?
-
Best Night and VVV remind me of that late 90s Rnb-pop sound...Timbaland-ish
Yep,that's what it reminds me of...the stuff that Timbaland was producing in the late 90s.
-
Great looking dude and a fine actor!
Indeed! Plus,I'm thrilled that she's using a high-profile actor for the video.It will get alot of media attention and Youtube views.
-
so it looks like Terrence Howard (from Empire) will be the love interest in the video??
-
Mess.
I bought the standard edition on iTunes which had same cover as the deluxe. Now my Rebel Heart on iTunes is this:
Now I got multiple copies of HW, IO, and WAOM.
This is how my iTunes looks too Somehow,I wound up with multiple copies of the songs...LMAO

New Madonna tour sales more sticky than sweet
March 13, 2015 | 10:10pm
Madonna’s “Rebel Heart Tour” might better be called “Like a Has-Been.”
The Material Girl plans to play a total of 35 cities between Aug. 29 and Dec. 20, while two additional shows have already been added in Europe.
But tickets are not selling as briskly as for her “MDNA” tour in 2012, leaving thousands of unsold seats in the eight North American cities that began selling tickets on March 9.
In 2012, Madonna reportedly sold out Yankee Stadium in 20 minutes, prompting concert promoter Live Nation to add a second date at the 60,000-seat venue.
Live Nation also added two nights at Madison Square Garden that weren’t initially a part of the “MDNA” tour.
Its 88 sold-out shows drew 2.2 million attendees and grossed more than $305 million, making it the highest-grossing tour of 2012, according to Billboard.
The performer also holds the record for the highest-grossing tour by a solo artist, achieved in 2008 and 2009 while on the road for “Sticky & Sweet.”
Madonna isn’t attempting to fill Yankee Stadium this time but, in New York, scheduled Madison Square Garden for Sept. 16 and Barclays Center for Sept. 19. Rather than sell out in minutes, however, both venues are still offering tickets five days after they were put up for sale.
Ticketmaster, a Live Nation division, doesn’t quantify how many of Barclay Center’s 18,000 seats are still available. But a look at the online map for the venue reveals row after row for Madonna’s “Rebel Heart” remain unsold.
Madison Square Garden doesn’t have an online map feature but would-be ticket buyers can still turn to the site to purchase highly coveted lower-level seats.
Moreover, ticket reseller StubHub had 2,346 previously sold tickets back on the market Friday for Madonna’s Barclay Center show and 1,803 tickets for the Madison Square Garden stop.
Arthur Fogel, Live Nation’s president of global touring, denied a slow start for “Rebel Heart.”
“We’re thrilled with the performance of ticket sales to date, and we’ve no doubt this tour will perform to the level of previous record-breaking tours,” he said.
Until all seats are filled, though, an extra date at either New York venue makes no sense.
But those so-called add-ons provide a hefty economic boost to major tours in that the stage — already set up for a single show — requires very little in extra costs.
“A tour with a budget like [Madonna’s] counts on adding on second and third nights in markets,” the industry veteran said. “That’s why it’s scheduled with lots of empty dates in major markets.”
It’s not clear whether the tour’s enticing promotion — a 25-song digital version of “Rebel Heart” for each ticket purchased online — will make up for the slow start.
So far, first-week sales of the CD released on March 6 are expected to total 125,000, according to Billboard, less than half “MDNA’s” first-week sales of 360,000.
I knew this was going to happen.We'll see media stories like this,proclaiming the tour is already a "flop".I think the super high prices are to blame.Still,I think the shows will sellout....just not very quickly.
-
I won't get into another demo debate. However this version is so lovely, bright and breezy a total summer song
yeah,it's a nice,breezy summer song.
-
How about a segment devoted to Armegeddon (the end of the world)? Yeah I know it sounds bleak,but it could be interesting....
"Ghosttown" will obviously be one of the songs in this segment.
""Wash All Over Me" could be part of it,too.
Then,she can end this segment on a positive note,performing "4 Minutes" and "Hold Tight".

I honestly think she has priced the tickets way too high for her own good. I just searched for New York (MSG) tickets - a ticket for the 100 levels (NOT on the floor) is 400 fucking Dollars!! I love Madge *have been a BIG fan since 1989* but I am not at all surprised that people wont pay 400 bucks for a seat that is NOT on the floor. No wonder I can still get 6 seats in a row in section 103, which is right in front of the stage even now.
I think its a bad decision on her part - she should price the tickets cheaper, fill more seats, do more shows - and get her music heard by even non hardcore fans (so that she remains relevant).
At these prices only superfans are likely to see her - and so she does not expand her fanbase much. She is shooting herself in the foot with some of these prices.
Again - before you guys tell me to fuck off or call me a troll - I have been a loyal Madge fan (and still am), but 'sometimes I gotta call it like it is'
I actually agree with you.These high prices are why the shows are taking a longer time to sellout.If I was gonna pay $400 to see Madonna (or any artist),it had better be a floor seat,VERY close to the stage and catwalk.

Got the email today.

I wonder what the real reason is for no booklet with the credits? Is it a cost-cutting move? It really makes no sense to me.
I also think it's not very nice to the many songwriters and producers who worked on the album.Surely they want their contributions to be clear for all to see.
-
yes she said it's the 1song from the album she can't wait to perform!
Awesome! I'm sure she'll come up with a wild,outrageous performance for this song.
-
Do you guys think she will perform this on tour?
-
I'm surprised that there hasn't been a second San Jose show added.She usually does at least two shows in the Bay Area.
REBEL HEART album credits. Madonna produced Hold Tight by herself?

If Madonna chose to,she could easily write an entire album (the lyrics) all by herself.I think she prefers to collaborate with others,though.I have to admit,it is crazy seeing a ton of people listed as the writers for one song,lol.
