I like charts and statistics and things, but I try to not place much meaning in them.
Of course, I would rather Madonna do well than not, but its not really essential at this stage of her career or in the current state of the music industry ("singles" are at their least relevant in a very long time). When looking at the total package (including not only singles and albums but touring, media coverage, etc.), she is still a major popular artist.
And as others have said, we are very used to this in the US, so nothing about LFL's chart performance is shocking to me in the least.

Someone needs a blow job
Yas! Make ghost noises during all blow jobs from now on. NTP
-
If she performs five songs my guess would be: Living for Love, Ghosttown, Devil Pray, Joan of Arc, and Rebel Heart. But that's very 'heart' and not so 'rebel' so maybe she'll mix it up
-
Drowned Madonna is reporting that Ghosttown is impacting radio on March the 13th!!! Where though??
Yeah, I'm not sure. I would expect the US adds date to be the following Tuesday I guess.
-
So, tickets go on sale, to the general public, for five U.S. shows next week, eight the following week and then three thereafter. So, any album redemptions will be spread out and not so concentrated in the first week (if there even are many that get redeemed during that week).
Hmm didn't realize that. That plus Ellen could mean a not so bad 1st to 2nd week drop
-
Its not going to be a massive delay! Its getting officially sent to radio March 13 and then the video in early April. That's about 3 or at most 4 weeks. That's very normal. And there be many live performances on youtube (Jonathan Ross, Che Temp Che Fa, Le Grand Journal, Ellen) to hold people over in the mean time.
-
Yes, DrownedMadonna has reported that "Ghosttown" will go to radio on 13 March.
MadonnaTribe previously reported that the video would be released in early April, but that the song would impact radio much sooner.
For me, this timing works quite well. Hopefully the initial push in March gets some traction and then the video will provide a second wind.
-
I think she'll surprise us. A lot of what's being mentioned here is very.... on the nose
I do hope for something outdoors, something more cinematic and expansive than most of her recent videos.
-
It was actually Drowned Madonna, which tends to be a bit less reliable than MTribe
-
You can just tell she loves this album!! I love it too M!!
-
Has she ever done a doubleA side? Has anyone? Imagine a GhostTown and JoanOf Arc single release, with videos even. No way that won't be her next top 10 hit everywhere. I already sent Guy a tweet asking and begging for this miracle. even if not the videos, but atleast both songs. We have so many songs on this album. Brilliant songs. They must not get lost. People must hear that this is not MDNA or hardCandy. Madonna is back to the Madonna everyone loves in so many tracks.
A double-A side would be very difficult to pull of in the digital era. In fact, a double-A side proper is probably impossible. So the two songs would just chart separately and split what ever support Madonna has. Some artists like Nicki Minaj release different singles to the urban and pop markets but that's because the perceived overlap is minimal. Both Ghosttown and JOA appeal to same Adult Contemporary type of audience. Better to save Joan for a single later on
-
I don't think she's injured but I bet she's sore! I mean I'm 25 and I slipped on some ice last week, didn't break anything or get too hurt but I was still sore for three or four days.
She probably wants to conserve a little energy
-
So she's in Italy right now? I thought she was suppose to go there on march 8th?
It airs March 8 but it is filmed March 1. So her UK, Italy, and France appearances will actually air in the reverse order of when they were filmed!
-
I saw her in Yankee stadium last time, and it was a cool experience to be in someplace so big, but MSG all the way this time!
-
That's really unprofessional. Like her Instagram post was super gracious when it didn't necessarily have to be.

"Lana Del Rey has described her pussy as tasting like Pepsi Cola in a song of hers. What brand of soda would you say mostly accurately matches the taste of your holy water?"
-
Drawing a comparison is not saying things are the same. I'm sure Madonna understands that France today isn't particularly like Nazi Germany, but rather the rising intolerance brings Nazi Germany to mind.
France has a deep, complex relationship with antisemitism. A recent actually showed anti-Jewish sentiment in the rise in Europehttp://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2015/02/26/389250366/pew-study-on-religion-finds-increased-harassment-of-jews. Europe as whole is dealing with Islamophobia. It's a very complex time
-
There are so many good songs that could be released as singles, but what's the point if she can't even enter the official charts of any country around the world? It feeds the haters. It's really upsetting they do nothing to push her music.
1) Never worry about the haters 2) Times have changed and there is a point! Singles and videos can sell the album even without "hit singles" (see Lana Del Rey in the US, even Bayonce is sort of an example of this)

YASSSSSSS

The French album poster does highlight "Living for Love, Ghosttown, and Joan Arc" !
-
Black people love Madonna. Fact. I swear at my granparents parties you'd hear all reggae and random Madonna songs
Black people in NYC also have a lot of respect for Madonna. In Harlem, you'll hear a bunch of rap songs and then someone will throw Open Your Heart or something on
-
but where is that pic from? or does she just play with swords in her hotel room?
I think its from the album photoshoot. I think she's wearing the same top as the Super Deluxe cover
-
I'm trying to stop listening to the tracks until the album release to make the day more special. I'm only giving myself Living for Love and Ghosttown
-
This will be the first performance of Ghosttown that we get to see! Unless she delves into French history and decides to do Joan of Arc of course
