Where's Lola though? She appears in the video rocco posted. Also in one of the pics posted Madonna is doing something that it's completely horrible. She is drinking red bull! That shit is horrible for you. People have died from drinking it. Ok rant over.

I think Bossa Nova is the best gift from Brazil to the world, after me.

It's all about #2!

So, guess what??
Melanie Ciccone (Joe Henry's wife) used to be a publicist at Brian Eno's Opal Records! M is closest to Melanie (now that Christopher betrayed her) and calls her sister "Smells."
P.S.: Is anyone still against M's facial enhancements?

Too bad he didn't inherit everything from Madonna and had to have some of Guy too, like his dyslexia.
Since we're talking genes... he inevitably received some of the same genes that Christopher and Marty have.
Check out a young Christopher.

No, I think she's happy with 4 kids.

Poor Rocco. He is a child and children make spelling mistakes. Even adults do all of the time. No big deal.

Okay, back to earlier reaction.

"Another day on earth"
this is not a song title. It's something that inspired her. Listen the full album on youtube
Another Day on Earth is an album by Brian Eno, released in 2005 on Hannibal Records.
Okay. I'm still listening. You see, this is very exciting if true. But you can imagine how easy it is to be skeptical. But I choose to deny that it may all be a hoax for now. Keep it up and don't break my heart.

"Another day on earth"
Okay. I suppose this is the song title...
Question: why did you delete your previous posts and now are posting rumours again?
-
Didn't she see Bowie once?

Guy Ritchie's worst nightmare.

a review of the last cohen album 2012's Old Ideas, inolving patrick leonard and Thomas...
While it's not normally a quality one associates with Leonard Cohen, he's always possessed a droll, self-effacing sense of humor. He expresses it on the opening track of Old Ideas in the third person: "I love to speak with Leonard/He's a sportsman and a shepherd/He's a lazy bastard/Living in a suit...." Have no fear, however, Cohen's topical standards, on yearning, struggle, spirituality, love, loss, lust, and mortality are all in abundance here, offered with a poet's insight. It is among Cohen's most spiritual recordings because it brings all of his familiar topics into the fold with a graceful acceptance. He's surrounded by friends on Old Ideas. Patrick Leonard, Dino Soldo, and Anjani Thomas get production and co-writing credits. Sharon Robinson, Dana Glover, Jennifer Warnes, and the Webb Sisters all appear on backing vocals. Cohen mixes up the musical forms far more than he has in the past. The loungey electronic keyboards on "Going Home" are balanced by Glover's female backing chorale, an acoustic piano, and Bela Santelli's violin. The sly, minor-key Gypsy jazz groove on "Amen" is played by a banjo, violin, and Cohen's guitar; it tempers his searing lyric, which posits the notion that the totality of love, divine or otherwise, can only truly be achieved when the object of desire has seen his worst, metaphorically and literally. "Show Me the Place" finds Cohenonce again adopting the Protestant hymnal as stirringly as he did on "Halleluja" -- albeit more quietly -- and wedding it to his simple, direct melodic sensibility. The song is a prayer, not for redemption, but to go ever deeper into the cloud of spiritual unknowing before his demise, to discover the terrain where suffering itself is birthed. Warnes' gorgeous backing vocals, piano, guitar, and violin accompany his beneath-the-basement, cracked-leather baritone in delivering the song with conviction and vulnerability.
Cohen's live band joins him on "Darkness," where he evokes, musically, his love of both late-'40s R&B and gospel, even as he frankly discusses his own -- and everyone's -- entrance into the big goodnight. He also revisits the spartan sound of his early career with "Crazy to Love You," written with Thomas, on which his only accompaniment is his acoustic guitar. Here, he wrestles with an unwanted but nonetheless nagging attachment to erotic desire. "Come Healing" is another hymn, with Glover's vocals, church organ, violin, and Cohen's croaking, old-man-in-the-pew vocal; he sings with reverence: "O see the darkness yielding/That tore the light apart/Come healing of the reason/Come healing of the heart...." "Banjo" is a country-blues that gives the songwriter a chance to indulge his love for Hank Williams while reflecting on Hurricane Katrina as Soldo's New Orleans-inspired horns add a haunted effect to the tune. Cohen speaks not only for himself, but the ghosts of restless spirits wandering in his vision. "Lullabye"'s lyrics, accompanied by a high lonesome harmonica and a whispering jazz organ, counterintuitively offer a gentle comfort to the disconsolate. "Different Sides," with its slow, loopy groove, is a shuffle that addresses unresolved conflict in lust and law (spiritual and carnal), bringing Old Ideas to a close with an ironic tension. Cohen meets conflict head-on and accepts it for what it is -- you can almost see him simultaneously singing sincerely while slyly winking an eye. Old Ideas is a very good Cohen album; it may be even be a great one; but that doesn't matter in the present. What does is that it bears listening to, over and over (and over) again.
if the rumours are true and if only joe henry........
Hmmm.... let's see... Pat Leonard, Leonard Cohen's girlfriend, Brian Eno and Joe Henry... If adding Madonna's pop sensibilities to the mix is not a Grammy guarantee, I don't know what else would be.

And will she sing true blue again?maybe as a ballad?
-
It's always surprised me the number of her diehard fans that are repulsed by the HC cover. I literally LOL the first time I saw it, I find it typical Madonna humor. Idk....maybe some approach it with the idea that she was TRYING to be "hot"......I never thought that, I thought she was going for garish and OTT and that's what it is!
She doesn't try. She is.

So Eno is not working on U2's new album
Their album is due in April
http://www.pastemagazine.com/articles/2013/11/danger-mouse-will-produce-u2s-upcoming-album.html
Which means he's got time to produce M's newest masterpiece.

I pray this and Webber so hard..
Time for Madonna to capture that Rod Stewart & Lionel Richie OLDER MASS demographic and BIG SALES!!
-
Rocco mainly I think, but you know how with Madonna one thing doesn't necessarily exclude another
I think this once she's really had plenty of time to mostly focus on the music. If MDNA, sandwiched between her film, the SB and the tour is still a solid record, I can only imagine how great she's going to be with her next album considering she has less on her plate now. Bring on all the fabulosity Madge - great music ahead
You read my mind!
-
but why she's seeing rappers lately?
Because she wants to be a cool mom to Rocco.

This is all too much for me. This is the week that keeps on giving! Can't decide.
New rumour about Madonna being spotted with Patrick Leonard.
