Madonna

[Artoo]

Madonna couldn’t even do that - she changed it very quickly to a headstand once the tour started

[floridagrl]

Not one of my favs, but it has some decent tracks.

I love the cover!

[floridagrl]

This must be her top performance ever……

No dancers, no big choreography staged, no special effect……. Just her, a mic and the stage: and she slayed!!!

Totally agree!! Listen to the audience's reactions. They loved it!!

[music126]

I listen to about 120 Madonna songs a day.

Does this remind anyone of Netflix, or vice versa. When I see the Netflix screen I think of MDNA.

[Angeman]

MDNA is such a bittersweet album. She had EVERYTHING going for her. She was coming off the last 1st single being 4 Minutes and she had the superbowl. She could have smashed but the music is so "mid" for most of the album. No promotion besides the superbowl either and with no natural hit songs the album just suffered. The music videos were great well 2 of them and the cover is great but that is really it.

I also think she waited a year too long. 4 years between albums is a lifetime in the pop world. So much had happened musically since HC.

[JeremySpears]

Cut B-Day Song, Superstar, I'm a Sinner, Beautiful Killer and maybe Turn Up the Radio and I F****d Up (I like the lyrics but it’s just a lil boring) and it’s an okay lil oontz oontz album

Im a Sinner and Beautiful Killer are two of the best songs.

the bridge in IAS is better then most pop girls discographies

Hail Mary, full of grace
Get down on your knees and pray
Jesus Christ, hanging on the cross
Died for our sins, it's such a loss
Saint Christopher, find my way
I'll be coming home one day
Saint Sebastian, don't you cry
Let those poison arrows fly
Saint Anthony, lost and found
Thomas Aquinas, stand your ground
All those saints and holy men
Catch me before I sin again

Some wish they had a middle 8 or whatever like this

[Forreal]

I m still kicking myself for not attending this show back in the day

[Forreal]

Speaking of Pop perfection album.

[Artoo]

Too busy learning my ABCs to attend TGS

[Forreal]

Too busy learning my ABCs to attend TGS

I just didn’t know how to manage to get tix from another country ( she skipped Italy back than) and all the rest…. I know it sounds strange now, but it was different at the time, no internet and bla bla bla…..

I remember waiting to finally watch the show live on tv, I was so excited that morning but the show was cancelled due to rain…… a disaster

Madonna Announces Eight Extra Dates for Winter U.S. Tour, With Focus on Trans Rights in Tennessee Stop
By Chris Willman

Madonna is adding eight extra dates to the second leg of her U.S. tour this coming winter. The additional shows were revealed in an announcement that put a special emphasis on a show she’s added for Nashville on Dec. 22, where she plans to put the spotlight on the state of Tennessee’s recent wave of LGBTQ+-targeted bills.

The additional dates announced for this coming December and January represent a mixture of Madonna returning to cities where she already is playing concerts earlier in 2023, like New York City and Los Angeles, along with a few cities that are completely fresh additions to the “Celebration Tour” routing, like Nashville, Philadelphia, Palm Springs and Sacramento.

The previously unannounced 2023-24 dates take place Dec. 18 in Washington, D.C.; Dec. 20 in Philadelphia; Dec. 22 in Nashville; Jan. 11 in Palm Springs; Jan. 13, 2024 in Sacramento; Jan. 15 in San Francisco; Jan. 18 in Las Vegas; and Jan. 20 in Phoenix. (See a full itinerary of all her tour dates below.)

For the Nashville show just before Christmas, to be held at the Bridgestone Arena, Madonna is vowing to donate a portion of the proceeds to trans rights organization. She did not specify what percentage, or which organizations will benefit. Tennessee is under fire for new laws that take aim at drag performances, among other rollbacks of rights affecting the LGBTQ+ community. (A multi-artist benefit concert, “Love Rising,” was held at the Bridgestone last week.)

In a statement, Madonna said, “The oppression of the LGBTQ+ is not only unacceptable and inhumane, it’s creating an unsafe environment; it makes America a dangerous place for our most vulnerable citizens, especially trans women of color. Also, these so-called laws to protect our children are unfounded and pathetic. Anyone with half a brain knows not to **** with a drag queen. Bob and I will see you from the stage in Nashville where we will celebrate the beauty that is the queer community.”

Bob the Drag Queen, aka Caldwell Tidicue, is her opening act across the global tour.

In some of the cities that have newly added dates, she’ll be playing a different arena than the one that is hosting her earlier gigs on the tour. For instance, the January dates just announced for L.A. will take place at the Kia Forum, versus the four shows she already has scheduled for September and October at the Crypto Arena Similarly, in Las Vegas, her additional January show will be at the MGM Grand Arena, instead of the T-Mobile Arena, where she’s headlining two shows three months earlier. And in New York, she will be in Brooklyn’s Barclays Center for two nights in December, on top of the four nights she’s doing at Madison Square Garden in August.

The additional dates will go on sale across two dates this week, with Citi cardholder and fan club presales happening Tuesday, followed by a general on-sale Friday, both happening at 10 a.m. local time on those respective days madonna.com. The only exception is the Philadelphia date, which goes on sale at noon ET Friday.

I can’t track how many songs I listen per day……I must confess I have a second phone that I basically use to stream M songs continuously every day even when I am not at home , I know I m cheating……

Do u do the same? Lol

I know stevyy also streams while he is not at home.

I only stream when I'm in the room. I want to know which songs I actually heard, so no cheating from me.

According to my last.fm I streamed Madonna 178 times this year, which is an average of 2 songs per day.

[RayRay]

I listen to about 120 Madonna songs a day.

Do you actually listen to that many songs or do you "cheat" like Forreal ?

According to my last.fm I streamed Madonna 178 times this year, which is an average of 2 songs per day.

I would say that out of my 850,000 streams since 2011, 70% are reals streams.

Queen Madonna is my 3rd most streamed female (2nd if Florence doesn't count).

Madonna has amassed 8,555 streams since 2011 on my LastFM. She ranks #14th overall. Rebel Heart leads her albums.

This means you listen 9 hours per day to music. This is almost impossible as we don't work at an office.
(I guess you don't stream music while teaching.)

I listen between 2 to 3 hours music per day, which is already a lot, I think.

Forgive my ignorance, but how on earth do you listen to that many songs in a day, regardless of the artist?

[Artoo]

I don’t cheat on my streams. I don’t actually care about Madonna’s streaming figures enough to try and manipulate them with fake streams. I listen mostly in the morning before work and on my commute home. All in all, that’s a good four hours every day, then maybe a bit more as I make dinner.
