Bill Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Just wondering if there were any brand new fans out there? If so, what was it about this album that attracted you? How much of Madonna's work did you know about before this? Have you explored her previous albums yet, and if so, what are your favorites? Also, how old are you? Just thought it'd be interesting to get a perspective from a new fan who is just discovering 30 years of her brilliance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mensch Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I wouldn't be surprised if there are a lot of ex-Gaga fans that see why we don't respect Gaga and why Madonna is a Goddess and jumped ship and came to become big M fans. They probably keep quiet about it though. I don't blame them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rachelle of London Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Mensch you are right, there are LOADS of ex Gaga fans jumping ship to Madonnas! I saw all the meltdowns especially the day Gaga cancelled her tour. They are now using their freakish obsessive ways about Madonna. And now dissing Gaga! Its hilarious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick00 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 This is a good topic because I wonder if younger people won't give Madonna a chance because of her age. As a long time fan, the MDNA era actually made me a bigger fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chimera Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Didn't become a fan just because of MDNA, just fell in love again with her since Confessions..and also with MDNA came GB,LS,SG and BK who entered my all time Madonna Top 10 right away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomwiggz Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I became a fan as a kid around 2002ish. I started obsessing over her in 2005 during Confessions but I'd say the MDNA era I fell further into fandom. The MDNA tour is my first (and probably only) Madonna tour (It was amazing, I'm just not crazy about concerts). I learned a lot more about her from this era but I didn't really make me a fan, since I already was one. It was my re-awakening I did take my friend who was a big Gaga fan (he had even attended the Monster Ball) to the MDNA Tour and afterwards he was like "Madonna put's on a way better show and her dances are so much more complicated!" He then went on to talk about how there is very little physical movement on Gaga's part during her shows hahahaha. So maybe I was able to make him a fan through MDNA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paparazzo Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I first 'paid attention' to Madonna after being shown Human Nature @ S&S, and then I was lent the S&S Tour DVD and the song that made me really go and look back over her music was the Borderline performance. And it goes from there. EDIT: before that I used to be one of the "Madonna is gross and old she should stop" but now it's all changed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhillipKyler Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I became a fan of hers after the Superbowl performance. I can't put into words how in awe I was of her. I wouldn't describe myself as a HUGE fan like others here, so it's sometimes hard to relate to what other people post. As for Gaga. I like a few of her songs (mainly Edge of Glory), but the whole 'Monster' shit is embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adreeyen Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I did not necessarily become a fan of MDNA, but it's such an important era in the context of my Madonna fandom that I feel like it's my first M album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably keep quiet about it though. I don't blame them. Haha, this is kind of me. I lost interest around the BTW era, when she started getting all embarrasing and "inspiring" shall we say. When people said that she was copying Madonna I watched a few of her videos and I instantly saw a link which is kind of embarrasing for her. I never realised just exactly how reductive she was. But anyway, I was a fan before MDNA but its the first era I've lived through as an actual fan, and definitely not a disappointing one to be honest. I've loved basically everything she's done this era minus a few things (shitty single choices, terrible promo) but artistically it's been amazing.

jyz Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I did I was always aware of her but didn't really know any of her work until one day I heard masterpiece from some random website.

LOOOOL some of them were HARDCORE Gaga lovers and Madonna haters, now they've "converted" one even messaged Paws Down to apologise for making horrible comments about M. To be honest I dont think they are pro Madonna now, prob just bored withwaiting for Gaga to release Artpop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Is this really true? I'd love some examples! And were they really "little monsters" though? Or just casual fans? In my case, I was more than a casual fan but not a little monster like "omg mother monster she's so inspiring put your paws up!!!" And all that shit, I got out at the right time (by the way era). I feel sorry for them actually because they're so deluded to actually think gags is the queen of pop or whatever. I saw on twitter a few days ago, one of them said "gags has been on a 6 month media break and is still making more headlines than anyone else" and the best part is that another refused to acknowledge madonna and claimed mariah Carey was the best selling female recording artist of all time. Oh dear. But now that I'm a fan of madonna it's so easy to spot all the time she copies. As if she's working with Dallas Austin on artflop though. There's this blog I like that basically highlights what a disaster she is, pawsdownlittlemonsters.tumblr.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get Together Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I've grown up with Madonna my entire life, through my parents and older sister. It wasn't until Confessions though at the age of 14 when my true love for the Queen awakened! It made me re-discover and discover her entire discography and I have honestly fallen in love with pretty much everything she's put out, she really makes incredible music. I fucking love MDNA, it's an awesome record. Got the album title font "M" tattooed on the top of my spinal cord, now the MDNA love pumps like the blood in my veins.....(I'm 21, by the way). Can't wait to start off my golden 22nd birthday on the 22nd with the Tour premier!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeGirls Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 First of all, yes, MDNA turned me into a fan. When Madonna performed on the Superbowl, i noticed her flaws and thought "get off the stage grandma!" but when she released Girl Gone Wild, I became a fan of the dancey tune. Then, MDNA started to leak, and I also heard the MDNA iTunes snippets and thought "this album sounds pretty good" so I went ahead and ordered the physical album and took a chance. As the album was released, I immediately fell in love with Gang Bang, I'm Addicted, Some Girls, Love Spent, Falling Free, Beautiful Killer, and Best Friend. So yes MDNA turned me into a fan, and I'm so happy I am a fan! Also, being in the Golden Triangle, AND TOUCHING M's HAND, dream come true! Also, a side note, I'm a huge Gaga fan and am turned off by the hate towards her on this thread! Be nice guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
