Groovyguy, thanks for the review.
-
Omg I know the person who wrote this review! He's just a great person. He's from Australia and like me, was really devastated when Madonna skipped Australia for the millionth time on her tour.
This is the photo used in the The Sun photo:
You need to register to The Sun to read the review but I'm too lazy lol.
Us Aussies are so forgiving of her bypassing us since The Girlie Show!
-
Yeah, there has been such an overdose on the leaks I feel like I might have anaphylactic shock!!
Whilst truly grateful to hear them, when there is such a minor change between versions it does get a confusing.
-
We live in a world where everyone is an armchair/keyboard critic. Bravo to Madonna for being who she is.
-
I knew the world BM (Before Madonna). It was dull
BM, I was into Irene Cara, so that video of a woman who proclaimed 'I'm not the same, I have no shame...I'm on fire!' saved my teenage life!!
-
totally agree with you. actually sounds awkward too. Its off by a milisecond but thats a technical issue that could be subjective.
Why couldnt they use an appropriate sample from like "where life begins" or "erotica" wouldve been hotter!
Yeah, they could have sampled 'Next time you want pussy, babe...look in the mirror!'
-
I could go on and on about this from era to era and write a whole book on it practically. I'll just say her music has been the soundtrack of my life and it's evolved in many of the same ways I have myself. It's like she's been a friend even though we've never met.
You took the words right outta my mouth! Madonna has been a constant soundtrack to my life since 1983. She is like a friend that comforts me, even though we have never met.
-
I love RH but my only quibble is the track order does not make sense.
-
Did these recently just leak? I don't remember these being mentioned before....
The Heartbreak City (New Vox) mix ... is that a certain demo number...?
Borrowed Time #3 leaked this week. It has a different swirling synth line than the earlier version and the finished album version.
-
But probably the best thing was, we didn't know a great deal about her, she was quite anonymous when it came to revealing herself & not doing a lot of interviews. There was a huge mystery about her & that of course intrigued us more.
I miss the days of album releases before Internet, because you didn't know a great deal about the album & what was on it, except for maybe a single release. The anticipation of buying a new Madonna & playing it right through from start to finish....words cannot explain the feeling....incredibly euphoric! Learning all the dance moves to The Virgin Tour.....I still know them 30 years later I did it so much! Lol!
Oh God, I used to play my Virgin Tour VHS to death and my sister and I would do the moves to DYU together!
I was hooked on Madonna after hearing/seeing 'Burning Up' on Countdown in 1883. It was like she broke my musical virginity! I was smitten and remember recording that and 'Holiday' off the radio onto cassette! Today we take the Internet for granted but this was pre-Internet age and getting a new Madonna album was rather exciting and a revelation!
-
Is that directed at me? Why?
Not aimed at you. Something got lost in translation there!
I guess I was going to say that a lot of reviewers are going to go in with their mind made up already.
-
I can see Devil Pray getting an outing.
-
Can't stop listening to HeartBreakCity Demo 3. It's soooooo good.
Yeah, love this one, also demo #3 of Borrowed Time.
-
It was listed in the demo list that was posted prior to when all the songs started to leak. So, whatever that means. Ha.
So we will take it as unofficially 'official'?
-
Iconic Part 2 leaked as well. But I don't see the difference from part 1, just the extra lyrics.
Well, the Mike Tyson rant is in the middle of the song, leading in to Chance's rap and then Mike goes on for more of a rant later. I wish they had auto-tuned out his lisp (it's very pronounced in this version).
-
SoS, you are in for a treat with Madonna's vocals. One of my favourite lines (with her voice) is 'I would drive to the ends of the earth for you....' in 'Bodyshop'. Very emotive.
-
Is it confirmed that the Etienne mix of 'Tragic Girl' is official...or just another one to add to the fan-made mixes?
-
Oh, I'm with you. Especially the dj personalities. However, let me share an example: I am only ever exposed to the radio while driving. I always prefer total silence in the car so the radio is muted, but I do see the name of the song and the artist on the Sirius screen on the dashboard. Every now and then, in between the Taylor Swifts and that girl who sings about her "big bass" comes something interesting like Nick Jonas' "jealous;" which I would nave never discovered in a million years. I then checked him out on Spotify, etc. And apparently many peoples knowledge of songs is limited to the 5 songs that are played on the radio so it's heartbreaking to see a good song disappear into the ether simply because some radio stations chose not to play it. I hate that radio is so important, but it is. Even the iTunes top ten mirrors the radio playlist: that cannot be a coincidence.
PS Please don't make fun of me for liking "Jealous."
I only ever listen to the 'youth' radio station Triple J in Australia, again in the car somewhere. At least JJJ has a playlist that incorporates more Australian and independant acts (they personally excluded Taylor Swift from their playlists, even though a small % of their demographic probably doesn't mind her!). Without JJJ I would not have 'discovered' Northeast Party House, RUFUS, Owl Eyes and The Swiss. There's a lot to be said for hearing local music.

Similar style as Beautiful Scars: Unapolagatic Bitch (Disco Mix) 4:37
Sounds really cool, faster, more retro club sounds & has cheap high hats. IMO it would be a great bonus track. But my sound system isn't good enough to detect if this mix is based on a filtered acapella.
The vocals seem a bit low in the mix for the UB (Disco Mix), so it may actually be a mix from a filtered acapella (I am listening to it through Bose headphones), though my hearing is probably affected from too many nights clubbing in the past! LOL
-
God, I saw an advert on telly here for the BRITS being televised. I don't think Australian free-to-air has even shown the BRITS, right? Must be the Madonna factor! LOL
-
Cruncher, I understand. I know lots of people who have the radio on in the background. If they hear LFL over and over they may subliminally want to buy that album when they see the CD on the music store shelves. Personally, I cannot bear the personalities of radio dj's, the station jingles and advertising.
-
I gave up listening to radio years and years ago. I know it seems important that Madonna gets airplay, but seriously...who listens to the radio for their musical diet? If the kids wanna hear shite like 'All About The Bass' then they can have it.
-
That list of songs is scary. They might as well have her bank account information and health records. that's literally everything that was on the recording studio floor. damn.
God, no wonder Madonna felt 'terrorised' and understandably so...having several dozen demo tracks leaked after all that hard work in the studio. She's recovered well, the show must go in. My head has been done in with these leaks.
-
Peter, the album version has a more distorted beat and a male vocal sample thrown in for good measure...but in essence the vibe is still intact.
