    The Philippines loves Madonna, especially when she surprised us by performing the most requested Madonna song on the karaoke, “Crazy For You!”

    Yeah, i think we are the only ones who got Crazy For You in the RH tour. It's her biggest hit here that even the millennials know due to numerous local remakes. Of course, Like A Virgin is the next most recognizable song here.

    WATCH: Kim Chiu, G-Force sizzle in show-stopping Madonna number

    MANILA - Kim Chiu and dance group G-Force joined forces in paying homage to the Queen of Pop, Madonna. 

    In a dance number on "ASAP Natin 'To" Sunday, Chiu led a show-stopping performance of Madonna's latest hit "Rise." 

    Madonna's hit songs such as "Like A Virgin," "Vogue," and "Like A Prayer," are known for their compelling messages and have topped global charts. 

    Madonna continues to make music and paint her legacy as one of the world's biggest artists.

    Wow! I missed that. Thanks for tagging me. It's totally unexpected they'd feature I Rise. Good exposure for M to announce she's still making fresh music, millions watch ASAP. 

    Remember how CELEBRATION had massive exposure in ASAP? It's been played over and over in the background for months, the original version.

    Madonna's fanbase is stronger and bigger than Taylor Swift's fanbase. How many will pay 500 pounds to go see Swift? Can Taylor Swift sell out a stadium in Portugal or Columbia? America is not the center of the world. Taylor Swift is a local artist for the most part. This is not to say she does nott do well elsewhere but her power is more localized. Madonna's fanbase just happens to be grown ass folk who do not have the time or dedication to repeatedly do what needs to be done these days to get her to chart. After the few days of Medellin, I eased off. Maybe we don't care enough about the charts or we just do not have the time. For instance Me. I do not go to spotify until I come here and read this thread and think okay go do your bit.

    Since the first week I have been listening to my own copies of IRise and Medellin and Crave. I bought it. Why do I have to go listen to it on some other platform? What did I buy it for? That's the mentality of most Madonna fans I think and fans of a certain age which is why the older artists do not chart as much even though they more often than not are making better music. Taylor Swifts ME charted on the hot 100 right? Medellin did not. I Rise did not. Make that make sense. We can't. It's the time we live in. So we just have to accept it and move on.

    Hope the album has good physical sales. Stream that when it comes out and see what happens.

    It is because MADONNA's team are so dumb when it comes to chart strategies. Either they are dumb or simply don't. 

    Can you imagine if Medellín was released as one song first and not part of any pre orders? It was able to reach #7 in the US for a time, and that is excluding purchases made through pre orders. We can only guess how many Madonna fans immediately pre ordered it and did not realize their purchase didn't count for the song for it is part of the pre order. Releasing it song by song first is a strategy that can give it a big boost for a Hot 100 placing. 

    Fans will buy the whole album anyway.

    LMAO.

    I guess this is also the reaction some in her team are having NOW.

    Seriously, biggest missed opportunity in YEARS. Probably since she skipped touring ROL for doing The Next Best Thing.

    Yeah. Honestly, i think they know the massive reach of this song contest since they exerted effort to perform there. It is the only international performance this era so far. 

    It all boils down to intention. Her team intended it to be dark and artsy, i think, plus political. It still served its purpose of announcing to casual viewers that she has a new album out, perfect for the rollout of a new tour. 

    They should have gone for a fun theme like the BBMAs for the Eurovision audience. The staging and theatrical performance was still amazing.

    You make great points here. When Madonna was asked about the charts though in an interview at the GLAD awards she did answer it still mattered to her. Of course it does she has always been A-list and putting the age argument and the record company change argument to one side, this stratedgy is already far stronger than her recent campaigns as there's been alot of her about that was my biggest issue with RH, who knew except the fans...

    It's odd because it feels like her team are half way there with the campaign commercially but still remain 2 steps back.

    If they really care about charts then they should learn the right strategy... Look at Made For Now, it charted because all efforts was concentrated on the first week... video, single (no pre orders), friday, voila a chart showing... If they secured the Billboard performance, they should have released everything within that week if they care about charts
