oh you mean the song where she does the crab walk yeah im sure she would have been able to sing perfectly for that performance
personally, I always found this argument ridiculous... she wasn't even miming in this position, this is before the singing part starts... there are parts of the choreography when she's just moving slowly or even standing, and she's still miming... Vogue is her miming song and there's no need to clutch at straws and make silly excuses.

So I always laugh when people call ROL her comeback, I mean really?
I think it's because it was her new peak at superstardom, the first one since the early 90's. While Bedtime Stories was quite successful, and Evita was a big success for her, she didn't really reach the success of her glory days until Frozen came out. It really changed everything for her, she was the definition of cool again, everyone loved it... So it was a comeback to her status of undeniably to most successful woman at the moment, she was the it star again... Bedtime Stories and Evita couldn't compare to how universally accepted she was with ROL.

Positive vibes please
personally, I would love a big performance at any event, I wouldn't have any opinions about the location or the political background.

whatever happens, both the fans and the haters will find a way to spin this as they please... the haters will accuse her of mass murder and the fans will justify her by saying she had to do the promo to earn enough money for Malawi

Serious question. If you have to choose between commercial success or multiple Grammys awards, which one would you choose, cannot be both. I’d prefer this album be the best of her career and win at least 5 major Grammys awards.
if we're talking Album of the Year and Song/Record of the Year, then I'd say I would prefer multiple Grammies... if it's just some Best Dance award, no thanks, I'd prefer a commercially successful album

I would LOVE a Barry Gibb / Bee Gees sample
-
I say we need COADF or ROL style promo.... major performances on major TV shows, in the US and Europe, whatever has good rating. I mean, she performed Frozen on the Lottery Show for chrissake
and it worked - first UK #1 in almost a decade at that time

my worry with this Anitta collaboration isn't Madonna's part.... it's Anitta's part that Madonna doesn't really have much influence over.... I mean, sure, she's in charge, but I doubt she'll be writing the Portuguese lyrics and turning this girl into something more than she is
-
I think it was not realistic to expect M to premiere her new single at a relatively small event without an official live stream/recording... all it would create is disappointment because of the low quality recordings, and without a big rehearsal, band, backup vocals etc I doubt the song would sound like the real official version... fans would be excited with anything, but the rest of the internet would be underwhelmed and the whole era would start on the wrong foot. I'm happy with the speech and the two songs she performed.

First week sales... sorry... should have been clearer...
I wasn't sure, because to me it sounded too optimistic for first week sales and too low for overall sales

^ it would be great if she could scan over 0.5 million and it would be a career first. But looking at her recent numbers, I would be happy enough if she scan hit 300K... much like her COADF debut which should get her her long awaited No. 1... *fingers crossed*
wait, are you talking first week or overall?

But I live in Bulgaria and it feels like it has regressed in the lgbt rights department. That was my point.
Yes, lgbt rights have regressed in many countries, but I believe it's just a temporary setback... it will do some damage for sure, but there's a slow progress around the corner

I totally forgot that Mirwais produced Future Lovers and co-wrote Let it Will Be, I still keep thinking of his sound for Music, so I was worried he'd be stuck with that, now I am even more optimistic about him!
-
I feel terrible about this, but even this is step in the right direction... the first time they see this, people will vandalize the posters.... the next time they will leave them and complain among themselves, then the next time they won't even notice the posters and they will instead complain about something more advanced.. etc.... and that's how progress usually works. That's why the conservatives are complaining about the posters, because they know things like this make a change for the better and there's not much they can do.
-
I would expect the new album to sell the same as Rebel Heart... I expect much stronger singles that will compensate for the overall slower sales and lower streaming numbers... I expect a million after approx one year on the market.
-
I would love M to perform at a pride event! The community definitely needs to be reminded of her legacy as an LGBT icon and supporter.... but I do hope that the fans will then stop making fun of other female singers who perform at pride events.

They won't have the EU and migrants to blame. Let's see whom they blame next.
They will blame Soros, and when he's dead, his son

British people should look carefully what's happening in Hungary, where Orban is trying to change labor laws and not pay extra hours due to lack of workers in the country. Lack of workers because he stopped immigration.
Hello?
They'll jut roll in their own misery, blame minorities and think they're being patriotic heroes who love their country.... so predictable. Worse conditions will just make them more right wing and hateful.

I don't necessarily think that the "outside the box" refers to the whole thing being unusual.. maybe just one aspect of the promo.... like two lead singles perhaps, I would be up for that

on climate change.... these are his exact words....

amazing.... now his supporters will claim he was a genius for not blaming the Saudi prince, and he did it all for the American people, who deserve cheaper gas... MAGA indeed

Gabbana is known for his crazy outbursts on social media, and he's definitely a racist loon... good riddance

meh. it just irks me because it's inaccurate... there were no singing lines in the moments she's doing acrobatic poses... I know it's more like a metaphore, and supposed to be humorous, but disagree with it. I don't think we need to justify why she lip-syncs because Vogue has always been a lip-sync song anyway, like a performance at a drag ball.
