Demos were floating around BEFORE RIT and CT.
I heard a snipped of Vogue and Imagine weeks before the tour started back in 2004.
Yes but my point is that anyone can say "this song will be great!" "you must love me will sound much like the album version" (oh not a dance remix??) on and on about every song where there's no actual detail and they end up being right in the end because they had no details to begin with. A review of the Confessions tour stating that every song will be great or new or different would have ended up being 99.9% accurate. If anyone has actually heard or seen anything they should be able to say more than the obvious.

Desperate was working with Timbo.I don't get all the hate now fro Britney, and well...she already worked with her.
HN is a good song, but just like DTM..I can't stand it anymore.
Working with a producer who is popular, and working with a talentless mentally ill trailer park escapee are two different things... I'm not sure desperate is a good word for either. Timberland is wanting to get played on US radio (wow shocking for a pop star!). Britney is what... what's the point of her? I have no idea, but that said, if this is true I'm sure it'll be 20 seconds worth of video and nothing to get excited about pro or con.

OK, maybe I or don't have a clue about Madonna and record sales. Either way, I'm VERY surprised that after 9 weeks Hard Candy has only sold 570,000+ copies. And this whole "it's a different sales climate" sounds like a cop out to me. The fact is, there are plenty of artists out there who debut with HIGH numbers like Coldplay & Lil' Wayne, 2 different genres of music. There are artists who manage to sell VERY well, despite this "different sales climate". Look at Mary J. Blige, she's had several weeks where she sold upwards of 700,000 copies.
I'm still mystified that Madonna's album is doing so poorly.
Mary's album was out at x-mas time. Confessions was aided a lot by being out at x-mas time. Every album benifits by being out at x-mas time. You can't fairly compare HC to albums out at a time when they sell much better, or the best selling album of recent times. What difference does HC sales make anyway? M and Warner are done with eachother, Madonna has a 160 million contract and three albums still to go to bring her to age 60- it's not like we have to worry she won't be able to record anymore. She certainly isn't worried.

Was I asleep when Drowned Madonna became the voice of infallable truth aboout Madonna? Sorry, but I trust the President more.
If she had as much control over her singles as you believe, then Candy Shop would have been the first single. WB wanted 4 minutes, and they got 4 minutes.
Your assumption that WB would be releasing compilation after compilation of Madonna material, were it not for her refusal is just speculation.
You're right though, I don't know the ins and outs of her contract, but I can read and make reasonable conclusions. WB owns and controls Madonnas' entire back catalog, so if they wanted too, they could unleash as much of her material as the wished, and they probably will in the near future.
But whatever, it's not that serious.
Someone has kept an eye on not killing back catalogue (WTG soundtrack off TIC, not repeating many STR tracks on GHV2) and I doubt it was Madonna.
-
As for the recording industry not being what it used to be, yes, the glass ceiling is way lower than in 1998. However, if Carrie Underwood can sell over 6 million copies, it's reasonable to say that anyone can do the same.
It's not reasonable to pick the best selling album of recent times and say anyone can do the same. When the glass ceiling was 16 million with Jagged Little Pill (mid 90's) Madonna was normally scoring 2-4 million in sales. Struggling to reach 1 million today, when 6 million is the glass ceiling and America's sweetheart Mariah Carey may not make 2 million, sounds accurate to me. It's only going to get worse, anyway.

Bah I don't believe any of that "this song sounds different, this is the album version" stuff, that is always part of the fake lists. Like, how do they know Into the Groove is a great number??
DWRY-Not only will she play piano but she will SING it! ooh.
-
Angel would be great.
I really like the sound of this tour but I hope the choreography is better than the Erotica/You Thrill Me effort. It didn't fit the song at all and was very dull. Bring back the S&M slapper!
How much can you really do with Angel??
-
That jumprope routine best be for "Borderline"- otherwise, I may skip this tour live and just hope it airs on TV.
yeah she only has one good song
-
Celine could give two shits about you or any other fan. She is touring to make serious cash, and the bragging rights of beating Madonna's record.
Maybe her creepy husband or whoever is in charge is eyeballing the Madonna record but I doubt Celine spends 5 seconds on these or many other matters.
-
LOL at Roger calling someone out on planting nagative Madonna stories! Isn't that his job?
He's probably just trying to cause problems for Madonna and Warner or something along those lines, I doubt they planted that story... it's not like it's so unusual for the press to turn Madonna saving babies from fire into something negative.
-
^ That many daes in Europe where always planned. lol Anyways, I am ALL ABOUT stadiums!!! The atmopshere. The thounds upon thousands of adoring fans. It's monumentus! I can't believe the bitching that goes on here about this. It's like you want her to play at your local community theatre & charge 10 dollars a ticket at times & still expect the same level of entertainment & wow factor.
Those same people, if she did that, would complain that she's doing it on their least favorite day of the week.

I dont understand the whole Borderline thing... for me personally its a really mediocre song. Its aged very badly in my ears and you could of course redo the beat and melody completely but then its not really Bordeline anymore is it...
But thats just me...
I've always found the music cheesy and the singing irritating. The lyrics (which she didn't write) IMO aren't very "Madonna" either. She didn't write the lyrics to Don't Tell Me but IMO that's her all over the lyrics so it suits her just as much as something she has written. Borderline is what... too passive? Something has always seemed off about it to me. But that said, I know it's a big favorite for fans and casual fans so if she does it I'm happy for them.
-
Even if the list is fake I would think the real thing would have to be very similar- 95% HC songs plus a number of classics she hasn't done in a long time, plus some of the ususal (Music) sounds accurate to me. The person with descriptions is talking out of their ass though. All the obvious things to say and no real detail.
-
I was thinking Hard Candy would probably be poison for fathers day shopping.
-
I think PM Dawn opened some GS dates. They vanished halfway through and she hasn't had them since. I kinda like the shows w/o them and hope there's none for the states (unless by some miracle it's someone I happen to like).
-
It also seems paced to have most/all the dancing at the end. Ahhh I want this to be true so badly!!!
-
This HAS to be the set list. How awesome would RM/Rain/Devil w/ thunder and lightening be at a stadium show???!!
any guesses as to what is written betwen Everybody and Vogue? Looks like a title that starts with an R and the next line "w/s...."
-
OMG I hope that set list is true!!
Borderline is not crossed out but underlined so who knows what that means.
Rescue Me (as a video) into Rain into Devil is so perfect! They would all blend so well with water/rain imagry (someone even drew a rain cloud). The all spanish segment (minus Dress You Up) makes sense too. It looks like her hand writing. I don't think anyone could say for sure either way. Mine changes depending if I'm writing fast or slow, what it's for etc. I hate I Want Candy though. I thought for sure she'd put Blondie in there somewhere.
-
well if you think about it it's pretty amazing Donna has been available for a tour as many times as she has. there was bound to be one that didn't work with her schedule. I wonder though if she'll be forgotten from here or asked next time. it's sad the streak is broken but her backing singers have been invisible the past couple of tours anyway.
-
I could see Love Profusion leading the way for Miles Away, not the other way around.
-
I love how one person says she laughed at the idea of doing Rescue Me, while another says she's doing The Look Of Love. How could anyone possibly find this stuff out anyway??
-
Imagine what American Life would be doing if released now.
I think HC is doing very well. There's only one-did-big-promo-and-the-other-didn't between her and Mariah's sales.
-
And the half-hearted EY. Maybe it's just the RIT bootleg that I have (June 24th MSG) but I swear during EY she looked like she'd rather be doing ANYTHING but singing that song.
Too funny I have that on right now.
EY is my fav M song but I have long given up on it ever having the attitude of the video/MTV VMAs ever again (didn't care for it on Girlie Show either).
-
She only has so many megahits since the 90s so of course she wants to roll out as many of them as possible (or else it's an 80's act w/ a new album sort of show). Hung Up was the only megahit off the last album so it pretty much has to be there. Best thing for Music, Ray of Light and/or Holiday is some kind of medly at this point.
Tour info involving BRITNEY
in ARCHIVE - Madonna

The point of her in regards to Madonna, as I was discussing Timberland and what Madonna was interested in him for. What point does Britney serve her? Is Madonna trying to help her out? Does she think it'll aide her show? I don't know.
Otherwise, I'm well aware what the point of Britney is.
