    I don't think there was any significance to it. She just took the fire escape. 

    I don't think it's by chance.

    Going out clubbing has always been linked to some sort of escapism from your everyday life.

    She goes to the club to escape from the depressing news, from a world where "white straight men" rule and people can get mugged at gunpoint when walking alone and she does so by literary using the fire escape.

    And she thinks the disco is a safe haven.

    But we're never safe.

    Im still trying to process all of this 

    its just too much brilliance for me right now lol

    Q: Disco Mama Donna at the end when she exits her apartment from her window? What can we gather? Suicide ? 

    The story is shown backwards.

    It starts with her getting ready to go out, ignoring what's on the news about mass shootings and "escaping" from her apartment using the emergency exit.

    Then she brushes off suffering from robbery at gunpoint and goes clubbing only to meet her demise.

    Sorry if this has been discussed already, but do all the vinyl copies of the album state that Future is on side A on the sleeve when in fact it plays on side B? I bought my copy in Canada and was wondering if this mistake is on every LP. 

    Only some pressings of the Rainbow edition correct this mistake.

    All editions with a cover come with the same one and a sticker with the alternate barcode if applicable or the country of manufacture slapped on.

    As the tracklist of the picture disc is a sticker in itself I guess it was the easiest one to solve.

    I'd assume the mistake on the other versions is not very likely to be solved anytime soon. We still have copies of Erotica with the wrong copyright information and that was released in 2012 I think.

    How do you define "diehard" fans?

    They do have smartphones, don't they?

    The tickets come with digital download. If they are not downloading it, they DO NOT qualify as "diehard" fans. Based on your description, I doubt they even bother to download.

    They are the BEST example of "casual listener" like what I had mentioned in my previous post. They don't particularly like or dislike M, they will only stream free on youtube like some self-claimed-fans. They were probably ex-fans but their enthusiasm had waned off long time ago ever since M no longer dominates the chart like she used to back in WB or they are getting older and focus on something else considered meaningful to them in their life.

    So who are the "diehard" fans? see MX formats & boxset thread. Those who posted what they had ordered, what they had missed, what they were upset with their orders etc and did whatever they could to support Madge. Whether they buy a format only or multiple copies is not the issue, they are the genuine diehard fans who really wanna support Madge till the end.

    So please do not use the term "diehard fans" to describe them 'cos I felt it's an insult to me. I am a diehard fans.

    One of that friends has been talking to me non stop about the album since the pre release tracks started to come out and knows the words to every track already, so definitely qualifies as a diehard fan to me, especially as he has bought tickets for multiple dates and hasn't missed any of her tours in his adult life.

    I don't share the reasoning in not buying the album but I don't think buying it or not is what defines someone's level of fandom.

    I said "Madonna fans".

    Madonna fans are mostly physical format supporters.

    Only her real fans will buy her album to support her.

    Just go to the "MX formats / boxset" threads and you will be able to tell who are the real fans.

    Buying or streaming the album is form of support to the artist that you like.

    Even if you don't buy the album, stream it but sadly MX 1st week streaming was only 5K.

    Only casual member who pretends to be "fans" would come in here and start telling it's ok that people don't buy albums even if you're a fan. :megamanson: 

    And you actually believe all her 14million IG followers are her fans?! :rotfl: Don't you know there's so many blind followers? And some only follows for the sake of following?

    You sounds even more strange than anyone else in this forum and the sad part is you don't even realize it. :rotfl: 

     

    The truth is somewhere in between. I have friends who are diehard fans, love the album, know the songs, bought tickets for the tour and yet are not planning to buy the album at all.

    "I don't even have a CD player or a turntable. What am I going to do with it?" is the usual argument. A few have also mentioned Rebel Heart or even MDNA was the last CD they bought.

    I've tried counter arguments like "your collection will be incomplete", "you're going to show your support buying it" or even "the booklet is amazing" to no avail. They'd usually blow that amount in a couple of drinks any given night which makes it even more irritating 💆‍♂️ oh well.
