    Yes, I like your interpretation.  That’s why I’m asking.  I couldn’t tell from the wording.  And since it was four years anyway, it makes me wonder how long we would have waited had she not been inspired!

    It also concerns me she wasn't thinking of her next album during that long gap, but luckily we got Madame X!

    I'm kind of okay with the album being number 2 in the UK simply because she'll be number 1 in the USA, I think that's a much bigger achievement for her, I'm sure Bruce would also rather have a number 1 in the USA over UK any day, as you know, it's a much bigger country and it's their homeland.

    The UK aren't worthy of her, fuck their general hipster attitude "I know it all, what I say is all that matters and everyone has to agree with me or I'll delete them from Facebook, Madonna needs to fuck off", I'm so over it.

    Why is she flogging this dead horse . I rise is so meh , only song I skip on MadameX . And the video now , it didn’t connect two months ago it’s not going to now . 

    Funana would have been a much better album closer than this 

    Speak for yourself, I Rise is top 5 for me, Funana definitely is not.

    I don't understand why you're STILL not getting this.

    If every UK poster tells you that Eurovision had a disastrous REAL WORLD (ie not just social media) effect on her reputation then maybe you should listen, no?

    As far as Springsteen goes (and there couldn't be a more apt or telling chart battle than these two) he's been able to make the big bucks from his stage act while still maintaining his long term record deal and all the benefits that brings him. Madonna should have taken note and then maybe she wouldn't be floundering (and not just in the UK but all across Europe).

    I've kept quiet about this topic, but I think you're right Kim. A few people I've spoken to at work, out and about etc have said they won't be bothering with her album after her Eurovision performance, just the other day I asked a work colleague if he was going to get Madame X, he has often stuck up for Madonna over the past few years, he replied "not after that awful Eurovision performance, that song was terrible, did you see it?" So I agree with you Kim, I think it has effected her reputation this era.

    Regarding promo / Kylie, there was a heavy push on release week of Golden, Stop Me From Falling and Dancing were playing constantly on Radio 2, I'd hear them several times a day for the entire week, there was even a push to get Dancing in to the Top 40 with that digital bundle deal. Granted, Madonna covers far more ground than Kylie, but surely a label should be able to push an album without Madonna necessarily doing performances? I've heard people saying there's an advert on TV for the album, I haven't seen this.

    Don't get me started about this UK business. I am livid. Somehow I am thinking the copies bought from Madonna.com haven't been taken into account yet. That's my remaining hope and streaming. 

    This is my last hope. Hopefully there was a delay getting these numbers over, it doesn't make sense, so many fans have had to buy the deluxe box set from the UK Madonna store and Amazon UK. These figures would surely count to the UK sales?

    Okay, I really DID NOT care for this song at first, and it didn't bother because, it's a bonus track on a separate disc, away from the main album, but, upon third listen, I quite enjoy it now, it's got a great beat in the middle, and the fluttering "let's go DANCINGNGNGNGNGNGINGING" is an ear worm.

    Or maybe those pressings are all jancelled given that we haven't received any of them yet. 

    I don't know. 

    I mean, I thought some of them came with mp3 downloads - they haven't even sent those links out! If they had, I'm sure we could have 'claimed' / downloaded them and would have known for sure that they're counted. 

    Oh well, let's hope she stays at No. 2 come Friday and doesn't fall behind Bastille.

     

    I got an email from her store on Friday to say there was a delay with dispatch due to an issue with customs, and they sent the download link. My brother received his clear vinyl today, so hopefully we all will by Thursday and these figures will give the album a boost.
