Maybe it kind of feels as if she wasn't so popular because local acts are very much loved as well. Here in Mexico, for example, when you go to parties you mostly listen to music in Spanish, Madonna is more for the clubs. Even so, songs like Hung up and Music, and Give it 2 me believe it or not, did catch up in people's tastes and you could hear them a lot, even at teenagers parties.

Is this a joke? She's probably the most accepted and loved female pop star who is not Latin. I've never seen Mariah, Janet, et al have such a run of hits, at least here in Mexico, as Madonna.

I looove Bday Song. It's still on my gym playlist! Also find Take a bow so lush and delicious, same goes for Candy Shop.

The vocals were good and I actually think she sounded GREAT singing the last bit of Same Love. I enjoyed the country-inspired sound of OYH too. (Dolly collaboration in the future?
) The whole wedding thing was a bit cheesy though. I seem to be the only one who thought she looked awesome too, cane and all. Also I thought it was clever they juxtaposed the bible belt/country theme with a song about marriage equality.Yeah, but she also looked like the plantation boss there with the white outfit, so it reminded me of last week's N-word controversy a bit.
Anyways, her voice was ace, she looked good. And I love this new look. She should keep the style for the next album.

Loving this American horror story meets day of the dead look!

I really really hope it's Fleetwood Mac and not this Macklemore thing. But hey, whatever, a new performance!!

She can fuck whoever she wants but what's the deal with getting these guys close to her kids? Weird, no?

I think the expectation was big for GMAYL and she fucked it up. Now the tone has been set for this stage of her career, and the next tour is where the biggest expectations/hopes lie in.
-
I think she was on to something, a sound of her own. Madonna's sound. I don't know if she was ahead of her time with it or not.

I don't think America was ready to hear a woman rapping about nannies and soy lattes and feeling super dooper.
LOL
Forgot about that too. -
I think AL suffered because America wasn't ready to see the Material Girl bury her old persona the way she did with that album. The beats are a bit jarring, the sounds are disjointed, flowing from electro to folk. As amazing as the album is for me, I can see how people might no be completely into it instantly. Pop music's all about instant gratification, something AL's not. Same goes for Erotica, IMO.
A big flop can also be Hard Candy, as bluejean said, since that album was obviously conceived to ignite American audiences interest, and it didn't. So it all is very subjective, I think.

Is it a joke?
Madonna's vocals on this tour alone are enough reason to put it in the top 3 M tours of all time. Add to that the amazing first segment, the beautiful AL songs, the reinvented hits... RIT is awesome!

I would care if I keep hearing singles being serviced with the specific purpose of catering to mass radio, i.e. 4 Minutes, Gimme All Your Luvin', Turn Up the Radio.
If she decided to release other types of songs, chart positions wouldn't bother me. But since it seems one of her targets/goals with recent music projects is to score top 10 hits, then it does.
Hopefully, with the next music project she will say a big FU to chart success. But it has to be reflected in the music she puts out there to promote the albums.

I'm really digging the ROL mix! Very trippy
The GB mix eh... not so much. It's OK, but I'd rather listen to the original honestly.
As for the FF mix... oh heavens! That opening is something else. I always felt FF was a rough cut, unfinished and just added there at the end of the MDNA cd. This one's a bit more polished. I really like it.
WHY DOES ATRL HATE MADONNA?
in ARCHIVE - Madonna

I can ser why one would consider Tina or Aretha more influential. But what's the deal with the US and Beyonce? You guys adore her, right? She's not that big IMHO outside.
