I fear so much for her sometimes but I understand and see why she is so fearless...someone has to be. That said, I hope the tour is fucking secured. I always am nervous when she's on a stage...the crazies with guns are crazy. You're right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a song about gun control and the video also depicts that but I worry people will say it's in poor taste. It happens in real life, i.e. Bataclan, Orlando, so that's why people need to put their brains to use. Their "poor taste" retaliation is just as harmful as a rat's fart.

Michael. Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Just now, Ai Papi Si. said: Uh, I hope not. That would be really stupid. She's already got it in a nightclub, I think that's all the reference the video needs. No, that’s what I kind of mean. I think people will automatically link it to Pulse because of the disco sound and drag queens but I don’t think her intention is to be that specific about one incident.

karbatal Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 It looks very dramatic and disturbing and Orlando and Bataclan come to mind. Madame X is really going to the jugular here! A much needed message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjbradleynyc Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 To ya'll talking about "what backlash will this create?" well, plenty. I mean that's what Madonna does. All the way from Like a Virgin (song, video, MTV performance, to Papa Don't Preach video, to Like a Prayer (video, pepsi and pope backlash), Justify My Love video being pulled, Erotica and Sex book *shock*, the Evita naysayers, Human Nature backlash, American Life shade and backlash, and many more. Madonna does this well. She's not only a master self marketer, but a genius at music creation, production and creating topics that create trends/people to follow her.

Showdown Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 A blacklash back then would be no biggie...a blacklash now? Look at how there was someone mailing fucking bombs!

Making a great point here when guesting on Letterman in 1986, she pointed out that he should compare her to a female and not say she's the Italian Johnny Carson or Ed Sullivan, in fact she adds "I'm just me, no need to compare to anyone period".

Jairo Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Lol @ people complaining about a violent video. Song is called God Control and talks about gun regulations. What did you expect?

stevo208 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I'm ready. She's going to get dragged to hell for this but she gives no fucks and she is the bravest star that ever lived. DO IT.

Camacho Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Bring on the backlash! She knows what she’s doing and she is ready for it.

Dr Lecter Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Well it’s got a large lgbtq representation in the video so they were clearly ok with it . It’s a message. Those who get outraged will be the Christian gun nuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drowned World Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 This is exciting news, but have to say I'm nervous about it, this won't be a typical hands in the air feelgood disco video, it's going to have a dark message, but one that's necessary.

Her styling is drop dead gorgeous, and already judging by these clips, one of her best ever in this decade. As for the ending - well, looks like she's opening Pandora's box with this vid anyway so yeah, I hope she will just go all out with this topic. Bring on the shock value! (And yeah now it's clear why they didn't use this for the album launch) Spot on! Bring God Control on Madame X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
