I just mean I have no difficulty imagining LMFAO lyrics can be heard in your more tragic dorm bathrooms. The problem is less that new music is unsuitable to Madonna's gifts so much as Madonna's new music is tired. Cher pulled off digital disco ten years ago.

If Madonna tried to play "Into The Groove" on guitar it would sound like "I Deserve It."

Madonna's gift, as such, used to be (besides not sounding tired) not sounding like she was breathlessly, belatedly playing catch-up.

But on the radio there's not a lot of room for songs without a 4/4 stomp and a stupid hook. It's a shame Madonna is buying into that, but I don't see what choice she has, if she wants to get played.
Seriously? It's Madonna, she'll get played whatever, she could afford to take more risks than pretty much anyone else. I haven't heard any of the new stuff but if it does just sound like Guetta-house then I'd put that down to lack of imagination rather than anything else. See also Hard Candy.

"Revolver" pissed me off way more. Plus Evita (not really her fault).

I don't understand how this new boring song can be viewed as being worse than the actively terrible song she released right before it, not to mention the impressive string of drippy clunkers she's released throughout her entire career

The worst thing about it is how it disinfects the word "erotic."

Not even sure if it's better than the Paris Hilton sexting song.
― Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 29 February 2012 14:56 (twelve years ago) link
I will never know about that because srsly fuck seeking out a Paris Hilton song, life is far too fucking short for that
― Vaseline MEN AMAZING JOURNEY (DJP), Wednesday, 29 February 2012 14:57 (twelve years ago) link
the song is actually seriously p amazing, but mostly because it was already a song that these people just had Paris re-do vocals for

if she was gonna go this route, why didn't she just pay for the full max martin spa treatment. i mean, go to the source and don't mess around. even britney would have turned up her nose at the girls gone wild song.

there's a very condescending "meet them halfway" attitude madonna seems to have to catering to the charts that more and more ends up at the exact wrong halfway point

Between the Super Bowl and this track I am p convinced she is just going through the motions w the bare minimum of effort. Who produced this? Maybe the Orbit tracks will redeem her?

Most of her efforts these days lie in film-making.

"Efforts."
― Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 29 February 2012 20:52 (twelve years ago) link
Most of her efforts lie in trying to physically turn back the hands of time. Which is her prerogative, but she should't pretend her music is nearly as impressive as her physique.

you have to admit that madonna keeps up with linguistic fashion for using "punk rock" as an adjective. i'm serious about this.

The Madonna-is-old jokes make you look bad and are...old. There's enough bad music being pumped out by this woman to poke fun at instead.
― Cousin Slappy, Tuesday, 6 March 2012 21:25 (twelve years ago) link
Well, I will say there is a distinction to be made between someone who is old and someone who is old and trying to act young. For sure Madonna has been "old" for a while now, both literally and figuratively, but in general she has surmounted society's prejudices. Not this time, though.

The Necronomicon is old? Dead things are old?
BTW, I think Madonna's awesome mother/*ucker shirt was her smartest, cleverest statement on age.
