Forgive me friends but I've cracked and decided to listen to the 3 bonus tracks. Simply because I don't expect them to be officially available tomorrow on Spotify/Apple Music.
Still leaving the album proper for tomorrow though.

Reviews like the Uncut one just serve to remind us that no matter what she releases she’ll always have her haters who’ll dismiss her no matter what. Having a look at their website / reviews they seem more wanky and pretentious than Pitchfork. I didn’t think that was possible. Fuck ‘em.
-
Almost there. I won’t listen at midnight but I’ll be up early and listen on my way to work. Can’t wait! The comments and positivity from people who’ve listened already is really promising!
-
Bullshit. Someone’s been watching too many TV shows and movies.
“Two black cars” a whole swat team for copyright infringement. Pretty sure they send a letter first.
-
I had a look at the “top albums” on metacritic and they are so wanky.
-
Waiting until the album comes out officially. The only thing I download now are demos/unreleased songs that aren’t available on streaming services.
-
There’s only like 4 days until it comes out. I’ll wait for it to come out officially.

This is great! Can't remember the last time she had a full length prime time interview in Aus! Hopefully it's the entire hour!
-
Crave - 11
Dark Ballet - 11
Soltera - 11
Medellin - 10
Future - 9
I Rise - 8.5
They’re all different and I love them all. Can’t wait for the album.

"English" would have made more sense. Anguish is somewhat manageable...
I don't know cos the following line is "god is on my side" which is definitely a Joan of Arc reference and JOA fought against the "english" i thought?

I thought it was "English" not "anguish".

The use of the term rape as a metaphor is to describe the massive violation of oneself in a different context. Hence the definition of metaphor. Fuck these simpletons.

i was raped man and i think the way she uses the word rape is tacky and tasteless and cringe, she should retire it because having a lukewarm interview on the new york times isn't the same as getting raped... end of
So her experience wasn't "rapey" enough for you. Seriously fuck off. This isn't even a Madonna issue. Honestly how the fuck do metaphors help rape victims. It's like saying people can't say "killed" in case you know someone who was murdered. Rather than focus on actual victims and their problems lets focus on the insignificant. The "right" wing do it too. You can't use war as a metaphor because its offensive. This shit really fucking irks me.

That said, I think Madonna is overreacting and to publicly shame someone like that is nasty. Maybe she had a bad day, did the label send her numbers for albums presales or something.
I genuinely liked you back in the day but you have legit turned into a proper fuckhead. This comment alone is the epitome of cognitive dissonance. Fuck off back to the other shore and the riverwide circle jerk.
Your attempts at being an intellectual are so pathetic I can understand why you're such a miserable human being.
Before hearing Vogue you probably didn't even know who Bette Davis or Marlene Dietrich were and now you have the audacity to look down on Madonna for not meeting your absurd expectations. Seriously go fuck yourself.

FUCKING

There was headlines about the rape comment in the original article but they clearly didn’t have the intended reaction. Now they’re ramping it up with the second use of the term. They are clearly trying to get the SJW fired up. Fuck them.

OK IS ANYONE ELSE getting "Spanish Lesson" vibes from this songs? especially when she says SHUT YOUR MOUTH
Hahah yes. I felt like sing “senorita, she just wants to fall in love”.

Love it 10/10.
The video is 10/10 even without her in it.
I agree with others - I feel like it could’ve been longer. I also think this has great potential for remixes. Not “disco stomper” ones but something like The XX’s Basic Space (Jamie XX Space Bass Mix).

Does anyone know the lyrics to the vocoder part???
I think it is a Joan of Arc speech/quote.

I found it a weird article and was a bit surprised that people’s reactions here were so positive. I thought maybe I had missed something.
It did contain some interesting commentary and it wasn’t necessarily negative but I thought for an interview there didn’t seem like much “interview”. Especially now knowing how much time they spent together and how much access she had - it seems odd. Vanessa Grigoriadis is clearly no Norman Mailer.
On a side note - I looked at her twitter briefly yesterday. She quoted the BTS comment from the article in a tweet and was getting abused by BTS fans.
-
I'm really looking forward to this song. I intrigued how the Nutcracker sample is worked in. Less than 2 weeks until the album comes out!!

They also beefed up the backing track music. Its not that flat anymore.
Thank god. Been watching the official upload video now on repeat. I love it.
As I said. It sounded the same to me as it did on the Eurovision YouTube channel.
-
I'm not sure what is going on.
I just watched the Vevo version on her channel and I'm pretty sure there was nothing different regarding vocals compared to the streamed version I watched on the Eurovision Youtube channel?!?!
I'm not sure why people are saying they cleaned up her vocals because to me I didn't hear a difference.
Was there something wrong with the television broadcast? I can only go off both videos I've watched so far and neither are as terrible as what people are saying. As has been pointed out she has had far far far worse vocal performances so I don't know why THIS is being singled out. It wasn't even that bad?
-
I am also surprised about the result. I thought that Labor had it in the bag. I suppose they did too. While Adani played a massive role in QLD I think the other policies that hurt them considerably were the proposed changes to negative gearing and capital gains tax. Also changes to franking credits for retirees. Australians have a fetish for property investment and people who I know who’ve ALWAYS voted Labor voted Liberal this election. I on the other hand voted Labor for the first time in my life as my priorities were more social / environmental than economic. I also thought Labor put forward some innovative initiatives and would’ve been more likely to pursue better longer term economic changes (rather than short term ones like the tax cuts promised by Libs.).

Damn almost 40 years in and a Eurovision performance has ended her career. Who would've thought.
Seriously the hysteria by the media and some members here is next level.
Anyone else waiting until Friday?
