I can't find the Madonna track for download anywhere, I just keep finding fakes. Who te hell does stuff like that? That's a sad life.
I can kind of do that thing she does in that picture, except I never tried with heels, I think I will do that today at the gym. The heels I mean.

Some of those minor/major things work great. That one just sounds like a cassette that was left in the sun.

"In the teaser, Madonna describes Madame X as “a dancer, a professor, a head of state, a housekeeper, an equestrian, a prisoner, a student, a mother, a child, a teacher, a nun, a singer, a saint, a whore,” and “a spy in the house of love.”"

Madame X - she's been all of us

must say i am intrigued by "killers who are partying"
― petey v, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 16:45 (five years ago) link
same but "dark ballet"
single is both trend-hopping and deeply weird, but it's probably the first time i've been more intrigued than indifferent toward a lead madonna single since.... "hung up"? this is no "hung up" but

Y'all enjoy. This is v bad.
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 17:34 (five years ago) link
it was also produced by mirwais which is extremely weird to me
― american bradass (BradNelson), Wednesday, 17 April 2019 17:35 (five years ago) link
appears that a lot of the album has been produced by mirwais.
― mark e, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 18:11 (five years ago) link
Madonna finally relents and works with a prior collaborator and she chooses Mirwais?
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 18:19 (five years ago) link
Didn't she try working with William Orbit again and it didn't work out?
Not really feeling the new single. There's a nice breezy feel to the verses but the chorus feels clumsy and the song is two minutes too long. It's definitely stronger than her last few leads but that really isn't saying much.
― kitchen person, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 18:21 (five years ago) link
i mean i'd say the majority of stuff she made with mirwais was good
of course i wish it were stuart price, alas xp
― american bradass (BradNelson), Wednesday, 17 April 2019 18:22 (five years ago) link
Hung Up is prob my favourite single of the 2000s so that’s a high bar.
This is a bit dull but it’s curious enough to pique interest about the album. I don’t mind Mirwais. “Nobody’s Perfect” remains incredible.
― Chuck_Tatum, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 19:32 (five years ago) link
i said it was no "hung up"! it absolutely isn't, i haven't even decided if i like it lol

OK, kids, let's see what's got you hopped up.

I'll say her Spanish is pretty decent. That's the best thing I can say about the track.
― daavid, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 20:33 (five years ago) link
^^^ fair reaction
― american bradass (BradNelson), Wednesday, 17 April 2019 20:37 (five years ago) link
Me and the newly-out lodger were just dancing round the kitchen to this, and we've decided we like it. Extra points for the Usha Uthup reference, too. https://youtu.be/k8f5Itra2Wo
― mike t-diva, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 20:39 (five years ago) link
time to dig out that Mirwais album then I guess.and, to be fair while driving home, when the song came on the radio (Sara Cox R2 : EXCLUSIVE build up etc), it was rather enjoyable ..
― mark e, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 20:56 (five years ago) link
too funny. will never intentionally listen again.
― dyl, Thursday, 18 April 2019 02:14 (five years ago) link
I listened to it four times in a row, hoping I could dig anything out of it. I couldn't. How many times is too many times to still give Madonna the benefit of the doubt?
Then I thought, young people don't give one fuck about Madonna. And her older fans just listen to Lady Gaga now instead. She's in an interzone desperately attempting to stay on-trend when she could probably do something else with far more success.

i'm not sure this is accurate
― dyl, Thursday, 18 April 2019 04:47 (five years ago) link
Me neither; I know an “older” Madonna megafan who cares little for Gaga (despite my recent attempts to get him into Joanne).That said, I’m not sure how much he cares about “new” Madonna, either...

I'm talking about moms and shit who probably still buy cd's, but a couple a year. Not us (although I now listen to way more Gaga than anything Madonna is making).

oh i guess it makes sense she worked with Mirwais on this because this is just as bizarre as "American Life"
― ufo, Saturday, 8 June 2019 15:52 (five years ago) link
the album's credits have fewer collaborators since the Stuart Price days. We'll see if it works.
