Actually Hillary did bring up protecting same-sex marriage rights and the rights of the LGBTQ community as a reason to elect the right Supreme Court justice.

The portraits line was the line of the night. "Who does that?"

Thank you, this definitely breaks it down into laymens terms on how a song is crafted these days. I've never doubted Madonna's lyrical input when she's inspired (and clearly she was in RH, whereas not so much in Revolver). So it sounds like while she might have had an additional songwriter or two in writing the lyrics (since she doesn't compose music) in most of the songs, it seems each track went through a lot of production changes which I imagine affects the musical composition -- ultimately leading to many songwriting credits.

The multiple songwriters is mind boggling. Does it really take 9 producers to pen the lyrics? Or did some of the producers write the music and that counts as a songwriting credit? No joke, I'm seriously asking this. It used to sound much simpler then to produce and write a pop song.

What Kurt said. RH, even with more flaws, is sincerely more confessional than Confessions.

Did she? Had no idea, haven't paid attention to the show in years. That's a shame.

Robin looks like she hasn't missed a few meals now. Shame she lost her braids though, she looked very pretty with them.

Forget about Chris, Sandra and Gags. I wonder if he's going to go there about the plastic surgery, and will Madonna rise to the challenge? Should be an interesting interview.

+1 I keep waiting, hesitating, anticipating......

I still say this is the little sister to Candy Perfume Girl, and I mean that in a GOOD way. Definitely in my Top 5.

I agree. It's mainstream enough without sounding too much like what the other pop tarts are putting out there, and the lyrics suggest more of an anthemic trademark Madonna song (like LAP, ROL, Secret, etc). It's a shame she missed the ball on this one, but I hope this song gets to see some light of day either on tour or as a single (even if it flopped). Plus the verses on the latter half of the song are quite a standout.

This song is LIFE! But these lyrics in conjunction with that amazing vocal delivery are to die for. Honestly if you took away the vocal effects on the song, her vocals probably still sound as flawless as her ROL/Music days (same goes for Love Spent).

Definitely camp in the end, which kind of kills the momentum. I mean could she sound anymore like an elderly drag queen on last part: "If you're gonna act like a bitch, then you're gonna die like a bitch"? For that I give it a 7.5/10. Chop off the last minute or so and then you have a 10/10 moment.

Agreed. It's a brilliant track. Does anyone else think this is the Candy Perfume Girl of this album? For a rather simple track it's so beautifully polished and cooler than the title makes it out to be. I think if the vocal effects were taken off her, she would still own it vocally.
