  1. I, too, have waited patiently for the Queen's return; however . . .

    As a performing musician, I, for one, can understand her current reluctance. She has spent 3 years doing intense and exhaustive research for this film, invested millions of her own money, and put her own music career on hold to make it happen. Excuse the pun, but W.E. truly is her masterpiece. This isn't just some little vanity project. If you haven't noticed from the previews, it looks absolutely stunning. Have seen how happy she's looked at each of the premieres? Just positively GLOWING. Do any of you have any clue how incomprehensibly difficult it is to make a movie, let alone a period piece of this nature? This movie is the product of her blood, sweat, and tears over most of the last five years and is immensely important to her. She has given the last 3 decades of her life, 11 albums, and numerous HUGE hits to all of the trifling queens who are bitching about this movie.

    As an artist, have you ever given absolutely everything you had to a creative project hoping that it will flourish in its own way and resonate substantively with its audience?

    Well, if you haven't, I would like to kindly ask you to shut the fuck up, and as someone once wisely sang, sit your ass down.

    :bow:

  2. Someone should write a hate letter to Guy Oseary because this songs needs a 'kick up'. Nobody does a song like this anymore except for the Bingo- night crowds in Alaska!

    Madonna- Queen of Pop ----------> Queen of Flat!

    Umm you should mind your own business. Artist are allowed to write and release whatever the hell they want. If you don't like it, don't listen to it. This guy is joke, right?

  3. Ban me or not ban me...it doesn't matter. I have opinion..so do you. You don't have to agree with me.

    The fact is her new single Give Me All Your Love (a sad leftover from Ciara's album) will flop because Madonna has lost touch with the reality. Her marketing strategies doesn't work anymore! Admit it..and now Nicki Minaj? :doh:

    Madonna is in a rut. She has been feeding us with mediocre album, music, video & movie since American Life! And now the movie WE (half of the world populations don't even know or care).... Come on!

    You guys can stroke her ego but that's not helping her to grow. Is it? :clap:

    Please just don't respond to this idiot. He's just infiltrating the forum to annoy fans. Hes like a little kid. If you give him the attention, he'll just keep going...if you don't like her anymore, get off the fucking forum asshole. No one asked for you stupid opinion. We have plenty of people on here who don't like Give Me All Your Love and I personally can't stand the idea of Nicki Minaj being part of her new single/album but we share our opinions constructively not like your stupid ass. Goodnite. :demonic:

  4. I think LP is a beautiful song, one of the best on American Life IMHO

    But I don't think it was in any way refreshing or stand-out when I heard American Life. I don't think Madonna did either since she never performed it live. Actually, come to think about it, it would make a nice acoustic song for the new tour.

    I do think Masterpiece is a breath of fresh air, just because we haven't heard this voice, simplicity since "to have and not to hold" and since the early 90's Madonna...so it's all relative.

  5. Oh I'm liking the HQ version. One thing though - what's with at 1:10 her cutting off "indestructible" to go on to the next verse. :confused: That will of course be a deliberate choice and not a production mistake, but it's a wee bit awkward.

    It's to jump into verse 2 ... I love that bit.

  6. 1. Ray of Light

    2. Drowned World

    3. Skin

    4. Frozen

    5. Nothing Really Matters

    6. The Power of Goodbye

    7. Mer Girl ( special edition music video released on a power of goodbye maxi single, mini film specifically for fans about her relationship with her mother)

    I think frozen was too slow to start off the album, and drowned world sould have been released alongside skin in certain countries and excluded in others to keep the momentum with an upbeat song like skin)

  7. their comments over there makes my blood really want to boil... :rant:

    That's why a few weeks ago I was "predicting" according to someone, but my opinion still stands. All these football love guys are NOT going to be thrilled to see Gay Icon Madonna dancing around, which is why I like the idea of at least one song being on guitar like Ray of Light, Like a Prayer (even though Im tired of it but everyone's loves it sooo much, the religious theme gets people), maybe Music/Holiday/Express Yourself ....something like that. I don't know. I'm excited there has been no mention of MIA or Nicki in the performance. I hope that means something...that they won't be destroying my Superbowl! :)

  8. People are either gonna hate her or love her, but I bet they will all watch it just to criticize. At the end of the day, she's just adding another great performance to her career that another copycat can't.

    well i'm glad the haters don't have the guts to speak out and all they did was honk! everyone else's answers were fair, not fan-type which i enjoyed cause it seemed more of a general public. even the guys think she deserves it so i'm happy about that.

  9. The version we have is the same version that we first heard in LQ. The "orchestra" sounds digital to me, so it's not an actual orchestra. The other clip has indeed a real orchestra.

    Yeah actually I was thinking that too cause the chorus hq, you hear the strings for one second and then they fade out, and I kept trying to understand if I was going crazy or if I was actually hearing. That's a little weird that now two esperare versions are on the verge of leaking. I mean, I'm all about leaks cause I can't freaking wait and I'm still going to buy it BUT, it's definitely something wrong and someone needs to get there ass looking into it. One leak of Masterpiece is cool, a second orchestral version, I mean we can wait for that!

  10. It makes her waaaaaaaay more interesting if she isn't loved by all..... This has always been the case with Madonna and will be even when she's dead! These are americans people! Lol

    I was born in the USA they got no taste!

    You're so right. It's so unfortunate but in the end, I BET YOU ANYTHING. People will quietly be like, "damn that was actually pretty good!" because Americans just like to hate until you force feed them something good. I mean really, you can't blame people when their listening to Britney Spears and Katy Perry. I guess when I look at it like that, it's because the media plays this garbage and they eat it and radio stations don't really play her.

  11. Something about the inclusion of this song in the film seems somewhat last-minute. Maybe they put the 'demo' on the film because the final one isn't finished? Maybe I'm just hoping because this song has the potential to be epic.

    maybe I'm just wrong OR they will have the simple version on the soundtrack and the orchestra version for the new album BECAUSE she knew it would probably leak& originally planned for just the soundtrack and now wants it on the album because it has the William orbit feel. I still hear this version as the demo version everything just sounds clearer. Idk I guess it's the way I'm hearing the instruments. I mean , no doubt the vocals are the same exact take. The instrumental on this version sounds cleaner. If you listen carefully to the LQ clip, you can hear the strings but everything was muffled.

  12. i agree with this.

    im surprised at the things ive read about it. i just dont understand why she cant get any respect. at all. even the facts arent good enough. people really want her to fail. they ignore her accomplishments and focus on the negative. its disgusting

    i'm starting to just back down. i'm not defending it anymore cause it's just continuing the arguments. however, i don't mind hearing facts so if someone post about the EW poll, i don't mind hearing about it but yeah i think it has a lot to do with the buttons she pushed and how she was a strong minded woman and didn't take shit from anyone and Americans can't get passed that. that, and the Erotica/Sex book era. People in the States (where i live) feel threatened and use her age as a reason to bash her. It's very psychological and very clear if you were to put things into perspective. the rest of the world loves what she's done because they feel she liberated women and gay men and see her as an icon for helping others. Here, people just talk about her veins, her attitude and how she should help the poor more! Who the hell has any right to tell her what to do. She doesn't even have to help anybody if she doesn't want to and of course American culture is so vein and disgustingly cruel about image and they like to put people down.

    Also, I'd like to point out that I believe the only reason she's being accepted with the film W.E. , (not that it's not good, cause i loved it) was because of it's image of rich society and the royal family. that attracts the bored rich women and you could just feel it in the air of the theatre. they were all snobby with their outfits and enjoyed the perspective of a female in all her richness and how she can find herself without her husband. it's "a little bit" of a chick flick, but more than that. it shouldn't be considered one but it has its elements and ultimately for anyone of rich taste, it was a feast for the eyes as well. almost every scene, you would see people pinch their date/partner about the next outfit (i found myself doing it throughout the film...they were just beautiful) so you can imagine how rich women would enjoy that and the story which was interesting to follow (cause it was mix matched in time, so it wasn't easy to follow which kept you discovering the story)

  13. Mensch,hope you're well. I think the reason why people groan when Madonna brings out the guitar,is because it slows the momentumof the show down. It's ok when it's a ballad or when it's an amazing acoustic rendition of a song,like when she performed "Don't Tell Me" on the Letterman show back in 2000. Otherwise it's just totally beige!! If I'm paying £200 to see Madonna live,I want to see her dancing and sweating her ass off!! The bitch has to work hard for our money!!! However in this case I think she needs to put on an amazing show (which I'm sure she will) and out dance Gaga,Perry,and all those other girls,show them how it's done and basically say to those girls "Thanks for keeping the world entertained for the last 2 years ladies!. But Momma's back in town, so get your hands off my crown,and your ass outta my throne,cos there's only room for one queen in this town BITCHES!!

    i agree. i can understand how lately she's OVERusing the guitar. But i still love like Ray of Light from Confessions/Sticky (they were both exactly the same lol). I think a football audience would actually enjoy that as opposed to Madonna in a purple leotard singing "Hung Up"...and yes these talentless girls need to step aside (except Gaga, i love gaga... she entertains me like Madonna does ...don't yell at me lol)

    ugh and i hope she doesn't use the circe du sole in the way they've been used before.

    I'm guessing Madonna will reinvent the idea of having them included in one of her performances since it is such a huge field and she would want everyone entertained because she's smart unlike other artists lol.

  14. No guitar please!

    wow people really hate Madonna on guitar lol idk i guess cause i play guitar i love watching her on guitar and think people would respect her for playing it. but oh well, she probably won't although i'm sure she wants to, and now that i think about it, Like a Prayer will probably be performed. USA actually does love that song (more than most of her others) for some reason.

  15. I actually think this song could do well as a single.Madonna should film a really good,stunning video,using scenes from the movie.For their part,Universal should aggressively promote it to adult contemporary radio stations.

    Yes even if it's not released as a single, it should have a video with her and the film intertwined and promoted as a promotional single for the film. That would give it a lot of promotion. Maybe audiences would appreciate that Madonna is relaxed in this song, almost like her bedtime stories, secret -era...and it could potentially do well. And maybe that's what William Orbit means about "plenty of treats" or whatever he said. Just the album wouldn't be means to say plenty of treats...you know?

    He must mean more than just her album release. It could also be tour announcement, album, hopefully a video for Masterpiece etc...
