Guest iMisto Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Thank god somebody feels similarly. I just feel like I wasted TONS of my time/effort/energy... some people think it's crazy to devote any time to this sort of thing, but I look at it this way: She's an artist I truly respect and admire. She's done AMAZING things for women as a feminist, many great things for the LGBT community, and even things for racial minorities! She pushes progressive ideas into our society. I feel like I owe it to her, to support her, and fight for her when she's considered down and out. Radio not playing her?? Fine! I'll request the song 100times by myself! But when she doesn't care... why should I?? Sounds dramatic, I know. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtzlplk Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 But when she doesn't care... why should I?? precisely... this has been her laziest promo schedule ever, sad that it had been timed with a potentially commercial album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest iMisto Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 sad that it had been timed with a potentially commercial album This is what gets me the most! She spent ALL this time with mainstreem artists to do what? Sit on her ass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's going the bulk of the promo for the launch and for GI2M, where she can PROPERLY perform the song. Quit acting like she's doing all this to YOU.

Guest socalboy1984 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 lol why is everyone getting so worked up over chart positions? madonna's SO much more than that. but with that said, she'll probably be #1 week of album release. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zezwer Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 400k + with promo 250k without 250?? COADF sold 350 without any radio support at all... I know it was the holiday season but still... it didn't have any support... I think anything under 350 is a disappointment! at least if you ask me... and if she does promo... 400+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tha EVMA peformance was legendary. It did have a big impact in the US too. COADF had a great promo and huge buzz and better reviews than HC and this is why it sold 350K the first week. If HC sells well will be mainly because of the success of 4M. I believe the internet broadcasting of the concert in NY will be a great promo but she still needs a couple of TV appearances.

Camacho Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 How the hell was the EMAs performance not significant?! It was broadcast on TV to millions of people and reported heavily in the media. They made a big deal that "Madonna stole the show"! Madonna was on the front page of major papers the next morning as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
