Confessit Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 That makes no sense. She had 16 songs on MDNA and released only 3 singles, which seems to be the usual number of singles for most acts nowadays before they move on to the next project. The new album can be a double album with 18 songs (9 on each CD) and she could still release only 3 singles. I don't see the connection. I have to disagree with "3 singles" being the usual for most acts before they move on nowerdays. Especially in the "pop world" which Madonna, although a pop legend STILL moves within. Katy Perry, Gaga, Beyonce, Swift, Spears, Adelle, Rhianna, Del Ray.... There JUST the females, but all release on average 4-5 singles to promote there albums....jut because Madonna has stopped doing this doesn't meen that it's not the "norm" anymore.

MerGirl Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I can confirm that she will release an album for every season, so we will get four albums in total, which will be released in a box set in december 2015. The set will be called "Bitch 4 all seasons". EXCLUSIVE: cover art by Olga Free Photo Editor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get your facts straight and check how many singles Gaga, Britney, Justin or some other acts release nowadays. I'm not talking promo singles with stupid lyric videos either.

Madonna is most definetly short on her single releases compared to her contemporaries. It's NOT a criticism of her, but its true! Compared to other pop stars.....to whom she sits alongside (legendary status or not) she realy only focusses on her "lead single" when she releases an album, other artists spend a whole year promoting singles!

JimmyJimmy Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 (edited) I don't want a double-album because we'd probably only get to hear 50% of them on tour OR she'll perform the majority of them and just add the usual oldies (Holiday, LAP, LAV, Vogue, HN, HU, CS) and leaves no room for some "forgotten" songs. I also think that with a double album there's higher chances of fillers to make the cut (see Superstar, B-Day Song, GMAYL).

I wasn't I was merely responding to your suggestion that it's the "norm" for pop stars now to just release 3singles, when it isn't its just now Madonnas "norm".

I would rather she create a really worthwhile special edition with more songs than a double album. The MDNA special seemed pointless....too short for one thing....and it just felt like a selling ploy rather than a genuine special edition.

Well...most artists are flopping after 3 singles nowadays which is really sad. I prefer releasing as many singles of an album as possible. I think most artists are being pressured by their lables to move onto the next album much faster than they did a few years ago. It all results in rushed and often trashy pop records with 4 singles and lots of fillers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop twisting my words You said "which seems to be the normal amount of singles before an artist moves on on something else"....in relation to 3singles. I paraphrased saying the "norm" that was all. 👄👄💋💋 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The MDNA special seemed pointless....too short for one thing....and it just felt like a selling ploy rather than a genuine special edition. EXACTLY! I also think that Beautiful Killer and Best Friend were way too good to be "only" bonus tracks, while Superstar and GMAYL were made to be bonus tracks (in my opinion of cousre). The latter one could've easily been released as a buzz single/non-album track for the Superbowl only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuckeye Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 oh god no no and no! she needs to surprise release the FIRST album with two lead singles & videos then in december release the SECOND album with another two lead singles & videos this leaves room for next year 2015 to release two deluxe versions with brand new songs. blah, done, fire her manger hire me.

Sounds just as messy as the 20/20 Experience. I'd say: Pick the BEST 12-15 (most well-written, mature and well-produced songs) and make a kick-ass album NO MORE FILLERS! Shoot the album cover and include fucking song lyrics, again! Release the strongest and fresh-sounding track (not necesarilly the most radio-friendly one) as the lead single and shoot a great video that matches the theme of the album. (No more wall-humping or white room videos, please) Release the album with a REAL Deluxe Edition (extra packaging and all that fancy stuff) with two or three bonus tracks, remixes of the first single or alternate versions of one song (ex.: Love Spent - Acoustic Version) as iTunes exclusive bonus track.

Yes but that's because the 2nd and 3rd singles don't do very well. There's no point releasing more singles if the singles before it haven't done much. Those other artists you speak of (Katy Perry) are following up songs that have charted well or at least charted at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about fuck no. I'm here for every song she's managed to come up with on a double album. Or just one album. Idc what the packaging or cover is, I just want the music. And I want a lot of it. Shame on anyone for saying they don't want all the songs just because of this "filler" concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rachelle of London Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I agree I don't care if I get filler or not. A lot of people dislike the bonus tracks on MDNA but I personally love them. It's all personal taste at the end of the day. The more M songs the better.

Shan Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I mean really who says they don't want all the new M songs? Filler is all in the eye of the beholder anyways, and normally applies to people who only create albums to support a single or two. That's not M.

frzndrwnwrld Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I agree. We can make our own "best of" playlists anyway. Everyone won't agree on what's filler and what's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzy Jan Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Yes, the more music the better. Madonna is not in the habit of releasing music that she does not like or approve of. The expression of 'One man's meat is another man's poison" is true when it comes to what people consider filler anyone. If certain songs don't appeal, just skip or fast forward and enjoy the one's you love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
