  1. The photo looks terribly - stretched - too, they love making fun of her face, hands, etc. Lets face it, she's not 23 anymore, she's going to get older and older looking right before our eyes even though I think she'd done a great job of maintaining her looks there's going to be a lot more horrible pics coming in the near future - how is she going to look when she's 60!!! Be prepared all, that's life as opposed to the alternative, I say good for her - she still looks great and sounds great.

  2. I almost fell out of my chair when my dad said, "she still has a beautiful voice."

    Guess my dad is a closet Madonna fan. Who knew?

    Great comment, I LOVE THAT! That's like when my Dad watched The Next Best Thing and he thought she was Michelle Pfeiffer, he said she looked so pretty that's what he thought - funny.

  3. Well, whatever anyone says her early catalogue will ALWAYS draw the loudest applause, as stated in this thread, these are the songs that are embedded in the fabric of her oldest fans lives and have been passed down to newer fans as well - it is what it is, there is something about the time they came from, her creative zone, the lyrics, catchy melodies - magic, whatever you want to call it, her 'greatest hits' are and always will be everyone's favorite Madonna music!

  4. Something a little more "organic" sounding would be a welcome sound - she hasn't treaded those waters in a while. The Chrissy Hynde reference would be a cool sound for her to wrap her voice around, sort of like early Emmy stuff - I guess we will see. Let's NEVER underestimate our Grrrl!

  5. Was it posted that EW corrected their grade?

    Due to an editing error, the reviewer’s original grade in the magazine was inadvertently changed from an A to an B. EW regrets the error.

    Madonna, of course, is less about the Voice than the zeitgeist. At 51, she remains 
 as strenuously au courant as ever; on the glitched-out dance-floor stomper ''Revolver,'' one of two new tracks from her mammoth greatest-hits collection Celebration, she enlists raspy-voiced hip-hop scamp Lil Wayne, and delivers lyrical come-ons like ''My love's a revolver/My sex is a killer/Do you wanna die happy?'' Superfans may well die happy with this much concentrated Madge-estry: 36 tracks covering nearly every phase of her 
 25-year career. It all holds up surprisingly well. A

    Well now THAT makes sense - GREAT greatest hits!!!

  6. agclef- anything else of note among those 8 pages?

    Anyone else think the interview ended abruptly? I.e. no "where do you go from here?" questions or anything to close.

    I have to say a lot of interviews always do end quite abruptly - it's like an annoying style or something, not nicely packaged at all. Whatever, as for other stuff of note, I think everyone covered everything, nothing really shocking or that we really didn't know, just more of her confirming what we've heard over the years.

    My favorite parts are her talking about hanging with all the great artists of the early 80's, that's always cool.

    Another thing, the article starts with an outake from the Borderline/Lucky Star 12" sessions - one of my all-time favorites.
