  1. I truelly just don't get what Billboard was going on about. The term shape-shifting dance legend just doesn't make any sense, unless they were reffering to the dj dogs in the artwork and video. It was one big mess in terms of communication. And not only Madonna fans were sold on the idea that it might be her but music fans across the spectrum all thought it would be Madonna...

    I think it was intentionally made to sound like Madonna (or another big name) to get as much exposure for Kleinenberg. Pretty shitty by all involved. I wonder what Madonna thinks of the whole situation. Obviously not the first time her name has been used by a d-list celebrity to get press.

  2. I'm not really a fan of instrumentals but I'm really liking the clip. It definitely sounds like a Madonna track. It has a great vibe and a "happy" sound. If it's not her good luck to which ever artist it is. It does sound pretty great.

    A June release would be awesome!! If she is touring Australia in 2015 it will have to be Jan/Feb. For her to put the album out and put a show together you'd think she'd have to release the album in August or at the latest early September.

    If she does release it in November then I think Aus will miss out on the tour again.

    (If this is her and is an idea of the direction the album will go in then I can't wait!!!)

  3. The people she is working with seem to be pretty impressed by her work in the studio. They seem to be showing a lot of love and respect for her. I had the impression that Diplo didn't really like her but they seem to have hit it off. I'm really looking forward to hearing what they've all come up with. Hopefully the album is a killer, she seems to have put a lot of work into it!

  4. I really don't get people like this. Good you don't really like her why be a cunt about it. I think it just makes them look stupid in the end. Elton John is another good example. Surely his own fans get embarrassed at his outbursts. And isn't it funny how Madonna doesn't really talk shit about others anymore. Honestly I can't even the remember the last time she was a cunt to someone famous. Even during the Elton shit she was just "Oh well."

  5. I know a lot of people are having a go but I do agree for the most part. It's not so much that she sounds "bad" but I think her voice does lack the warmth from her earlier days. Could be any number of reasons but I don't think it's simply because she is older because she seems to revert back to it when she sings old songs. PDP and OYH on MDNAT are good examples. Compare them to how she sings GGW, which sounds a lot more nasal and high pitched. I think TUTR is also a good example of how she uses her voice differently on newer material. Honestly to me she sounds shocking singing it live, it's almost like she is trying to sound "operatic."

    One reason I think her voice has changed is because her speaking accent has broadened over the years. She seems to over-emphasize on certain words and really puts effort in pronouncing words correctly which gives her the "crow" vocals. Like when she sings "love" she seems to sing "laaaarrve" rather than "luurrve." Plus her more recent music she seems to sing at a higher pitch than her earlier work. Compare the vocals on I'm a Sinner with Like a Prayer and you can definitely hear it. I'm not entirely sure why she's done that but I can't help but think it's to sounds "technically" better. Personally though I think it makes her sound "whiny" on certain songs. Especially like on Candy Shop when she sings "Get up out of your seat, come on up to the dance floor..." and pretty much all of I Fucked Up.

    It's funny though on MDNAT when she sings GMAYL she sounds so much better than the album version and I think it's partly because she's using her older style of singing.

    Anyway feel free to disagree as I'm sure most people will. I still like the new stuff but I do miss that older sound of her voice.
