  1. Trying to summarise things I can remember. I’m tired so won’t remember everything 

    the vast majority of what she talked about was from audience questions. She was in a great mood, thoughtful and playful and very funny

    She said she asked a theatre in Italy to bring the Madame X tour there but they said they only allow Classical music there and they said no to her.  

    She had an audience member come up on stage and taught him how to do the butterfly dance from the Medellin video/performance. 

    She wouldn’t give anything away about the tour really, except that she wouldn’t be performing Give It 2 Me. 

    She did say though that it wouldn’t be ‘madonna unplugged’ and that it would be very ‘plugged’. She said there’d be singing and dancing and talking with the audience like last night.

    She signed some peoples’ tattoos. 

    She talked a lot about what she found inspiring in Lisbon. She said she found it beautiful but that she did feel lonely there which was something which she found drove her musically. 

    Someone asked for a hug and she said ‘I don’t own any hogs so no’ 

    she said that if she became president she’d ban guns for the first thing she would do. 

    She said that the most important thing she’s taught her children is that they should treat all human beings with dignity and respect. 

    She sang a few lines of Miles Away when there was a question from an audience member far back. 

    She said that the thing we should take away from the album was that we should ‘wake up’. Graham asked what we do when we do wake up ... I can’t remember what she said next acrually lol. 

    She seemed genuinely happy to be engaging with audience members which was so great.

    That's my hope, but at least I'm pretty much happy with the album songs. 

     

    And OMG, you're so cute, please post more

    I'd rather have a good album that misses the top than an average one that gets it. (I haven't heard it yet) At least Graham Norton show on Friday and maybe the Evening with Madonna will be televised at some point.

    It will obviously be disappointing but she does have some stiff competition. And anyway will Bastille's album be remembered in 50 years, like Madonna's will as part of her illustrious legacy? Doubt it. :queenbitch:

    And thanks hehe

    Yep—I listened to the leaks from HC, MDNA, and RH, and it made the release day experience anticlimactic. Not doing it again. Hearing an album for the first time from the physical CD somehow makes it more “real” to me.  

    Me too me too. 

    I listened to IDSIF the other night and realised I didn’t want to listen to leaks again, even if I really liked the song. The album will be delivered to my door on Friday and I’ll listen to it properly then. 🙂 

    I wanna look at the physical copy, booklet, artwork, the whole shebang. 

  4. I have listened to the snippets and my gosh they sound great. 

    Astonishingly considering the publication (and what you can see even from those snippets), I think my favourite line from any review of the album comes from the Daily Mail headline 'Madame X by Madonna hits you instantly with its vitality'. It is as if the fullness of the tracks and the scope of them is what has convinced reviewers, who were so ready to trash her (at least some of them), to give it a good mark. I am v excited. 

  5. Hopefully the Graham Norton stuff will help. Although to be honest I doubt I will care where it ends up once it’s out. Her lack of success in the UK nowadays is sad to see but what can we expect when radio stations (apart from radio 2 which have been pretty good I suppose) don’t touch her? Eurovision also did a number on her general reputation but that’s been discussed to death too, so.
