Anyone got a link to the other 24 album covers......?

Gee. I wonder who this lady is voting for?
Watching this clip reminds me that left wing people are just as irritating as right wing people. What was the point of those two guys shit stirring this woman as well as taking down her number plate. That woman had every right to go off at them. I would have gone one step further and smacked the shit out of the arseholes for taking down my number plate and god knows what they would have done with it?

Le Pen grand daughter who is about to overtake south of France wants religion to be above the law. She made some pretty jaw dropping comments about christianity for someone so young. So this is not about religion in general. And as for muslims not wearing the same clothes as everybody else most of my muslims friends do and one works as a manager for H&M
And that's the problem, religion and politics should never mix, whichever religion that may be. Too many countries are governed by religion doctorate, orthodox Russia, Muslim middle east, catholic polish folk, Iowa Mormons etc even in a cultural mecca country like Australia our last prime minister always based his decisions on his Christian/ gods beliefs which was fucking stupid. This Lepen woman sounds just as crazy as a Saudi Arabian dictator. But I can see why people like her and trump become popular. They not only appeal to loons, but to middle of the road folk, who are just so over the left and right loons.

People are racist in France no matter how some try to spin it that's the truth. They vote for Le Pen because they blame the arab next door for their own misery. I'm not surprised, the rise of intolerance in France started with Sarkozy's election as a president. He toyed with the race and identity card and by doing so he gradually liberated the racist thoughts people were holding back. Hollande used gay rights to hide his politics, while extremists were attacking us, they were not paying attention to what he was doing elsewhere. Both put people against each other and divided the country.
Le Pen (daughter & granddaughter...the latter is the worst) are not only racist but they absolutely can't run anything because they are all talk only.
Or maybe countries like France, Germany and Australia that are predominantly secular ( or not so fanatical about religion ) are getting fed up with all religious "proporganda". And since Muslims / religion is very obvious to the eye due to dress and appearance, ( unlike a Christian who wears poorly made brands like A& F or H & M ) it is easier to discriminate.

Looking at my life
It's very clear to me
I've lived so selfishly
I was the only one
I realised
That nobody wins
Something is ending
And something begins
Everything about this was perfection.
Music, lyrics, video, image, style, live performance etc.
My only teeny tiny minor niggle was that this song was not included on the Drowned World Tour setlist because it would have been perfect in the geisha segment after she shot the ghost / demon / rapist man type clown thing!!
She can't even remember to put it on her DVD celebration collection, I doubt she will remember it for a tour

Would have loved Madonna in a horror film... maybe even pre-fame.
Have you watched A Certain Sacrifice, that was pretty horrorific
-
Why are people hating Australia? I don't like Baz Lurman much but this is my exception. I even got moved with the cattle scene and the boy! Can't stand Moulin Rouge even if I wanted to love it, so screwed up with the awfully unfitting 80's songs. Etc.
I could in fact see Madonna doing Australia.
You have obviously never lived here
the movie is the biggest piece of shit I have ever seen ( and that's saying something considering all of Baz Luhemens movies are a piece of shit from Strictly Ballroom to the Shit Gatsby ). Let's face facts Madonna is as a good an actress as Nicole is a singer.
-
Me, too. But besides Erotica, they should have included Garbage and Version 2.0 by Garbage, and Live Through This and Celebrity Skin by Hole.
Live Through This should definently be there, but there is just something with celebrity skin that makes it a bit too common and non worthy?
I'm surprised with Nirvana though, first time I've seen In Utero rated aboved Nevermind???
-
I can see Madonna staring in Days Of Thunder.

Madonna's teeth are fabulous. Brahmins are not.
Bucked teeth are always awful. And madonna has had to do extensive work on her teeth throughout the years especially having to keep the gap, since it's one of her signatures.
The Ray of Light years, that gap was splitting apart from the bottom becoming wider and flopping out of her mouth. Around I'm going to tell you a secret she was lisping as her teeth were being fixed.
I'd hate to see what you think of Miss Minogue's teeth

Was reading a nature book today entitled: One big happy family - all about the odd ball pairing of animals nurturing and caring for one another. I.e a fox looking after guinea pigs, a pig raising a kitten etc and a chapter on an Olive Silvery Marmoset being raised by a Tamarin monkey ( very unusal for one species of monkeys to raise another ) The final sentence being: The olive silvery marmoset has simply followed the greater trend of female celebrities such as MADONNA
and gwyenth Paltrow 
in depending upon a male caretaker to care for their young children :) did not even make sense but I pissd myself laughing that Madonnas name even appeared in the book. -
A masterpiece that should have been a single.
And that's the problem with Like A Prayer; Spanish Eyes, Till Death do us Part and Promise to Try could have all been singles as well. That's 9 beautiful and totally original singles from the one album
did leave off Love Song and Act of Contrition- great songs just not single worthy I thought Spanish eyes was a single in Spain or possibly promo single?
-
Some of the rap lyrics are pretty embarrassing and shit. Chorus / ending is nice and definently works better as a live performance. By far the weakest song ( along with I'm so stupid ) on an otherwise splendid album.
-
I love AL (song), but agree with this. Things might have turned out so differently...
Hindsight is a wonderful thing
i suspect this would have been a hugh success and chart topper ( particularly coming off ROL and Music era where she was universally loved and could do no wrong ). I suspect it was Madonnas decision to release American Life as first single whilst all those at Warner were probably shaking their heads, thinking WTF I would have gone:1 Nothing Fails
2 Hollywood
3 xstatic Process
4 Love Profusion / Nobody Knows Me
5 American Life ( when nobody would actually care and war is over
) -
It makes for a good housework and party disc. However she should of scrapped Celebration, Revolver and Miles Away which are all shit. Included Deeper and Deeper, Give It To Me and lead the compilation with Beat Goes On as a new reworked single!!!
I'm still baffled as to why they left off official film clips from the DVD when it could have been the ultimate DVD collection instead of 90% complete
:( -
I can't believe what I'm reading. The only post that makes any sense is webo girl.
Borderline was the first video anyone saw of hers. It's what REALLY started it all. Her first top 10.
Anyone talking shit didn't live through it and came of age with the spice girls.
Not if your an Aussie, where Burning Up was a hugh hit and its video played everywhere ( well countdown with Molly meldrum anyhow
) Burning Up is for real men, Borderline is for soft cocks ( except for the orange and green socks and pumps, which are fabulous! )

It's kind of silly to compare older concert takings and rankings with newer concerts. how about adjusting inflation to show comparability?

It shocks me how she embraced the internet right at the very start but then she didn't follow through. It must have been all that file sharing situation with Napster that put her off and when she realised that that wasn't going to be stopped it was already too late cuz a new generation of artists had already been working hand in hand with the Internet thing. Digital era hasn't been kind to Madonna unfortunately...
Not just Madonna but the whole music industry is at fault. Instead of innovation and embracing the Internet from day one,they fought and obviously lost in the end and now sales are in the shitter. By removing cd singles and forcing people to buy albums for a hit single, record companies greed fucked them over in the end. If the transition from cd singles to iTunes went smoother / quicker etc people would not have embraced napstar and stealing singles, which led to stealing albums ( it probably would have remained at the level of recording / stealing from a cassette).

Oh yikes. I didn't realize.
Are we still freaking out over these "low" boxscores? Cuz we'll all be gloating when the Europe/Asia/Australia boxscores are posted so whatever
I wouldn't get your hopes too high with Aussie box office scores. Our dollar is shit compared to US. She will earn only 2/3 for every US dollar.
-
Erase the kiss, god knows what disgusting diseases she caught off of those skanks Britney and anonymous Christina kiss.Hopefully she was wearing a dental dam at the time.
The fall showed resilience and strength. Aside from the physical pain I think Madonna received a lot of empathy from the general public post fall.
-
I once sighted a photograph of Madonna eating, it changed everything, now i eat.
JLO is so insightful, I'm pleasantly surprised she has not yet received a Nobel peace prize for outstanding excellence in jogging.
-
mom is spelled the right way in the US. it's "mum" in australia. why would she write it the australian way?
Because Australian is Proper English, not some Wall Mart version spelling of mum.
-
She didn't even spell mum correctly. How embarrassing
-
Hopefully a lyric booklet!!! The Japanese always enjoy lyrics and will often have lyric booklets even when not officially released
Guy O has been very quiet during this era...
in ARCHIVE - Madonna

Your forgot the brilliance that was Hard Candy gyms, which are now cum dumpsters and glory holes these days. I heard that's where Guy is spending a lot of his time with Janet's Manager discussing non promotional strategies.
