  1. The only good thing that'll come from her death (in at least 30 yrs ) is the shameless release of all her demos
  2. There is really no excuse for it and you've got it in one. Madonna came across extremely bitter and resentful towards Mariah (who essentially replaced her as 'the' female recording artist at the time). I obviously love Madonna, but coming for a girl ten years younger than her never sat right with me.
  3. There is literally nothing to back this up. The only songs she seems to regularly perform are those from BTD
  4. Well whatever it was, vocal effects became really popular after Cher's Believe.
  5. Believe is a far bigger song today than any of the ROL singles, yes. But ROL the album is highly revered and came first. It was a huge come back for Madonna, and everyone but you apparently says it popularised electronica.
  6. Then why are you saying Cher made it popular if it already was?
  7. I'm pretty sure they're both given credit for making electronica mainstream. A lot of the retrospectives on ROL discuss the fact it brought the genre to the GP's attention, so I'll take it from people who were teens/adults at the time rather than someone who wasn't. Though I agree Believe had a huge impact on autotune as a vocal effect and you can clearly see that in Madonna's own Music record two years later.
  8. This thread was bumped and I got a kii reading through it again and seeing this comment cause you called me a white supremacist for thinking Drake, Beyonce etc are the most popular acts right now and @Melt Away said it was institutionalised racism
  9. It's one of those records that are well received several years after release Jagged Little Pill will always be her opus but SFIJ is still a great record
  10. Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie says otherwise. It's pretty much agreed upon her first two albums are essential but after that...
  11. Agreed. It's unfortunate but the refugee crisis (and the effects of ISIS making people scared and in turn islamophobic) is making the whole Western world extremley intolerant
  12. My favourite show. I loved Rose as Paige, but the orignial three were much better I assumed as much from them unfollowing each other and the stuff Shannen said in the Chelsea interview but it's not confirmed is it?
  13. I apologise for my original defensieve post, I can understand why it would be frustrating for you and @Kyoteki. I didn't mean to come accross as being dismissive. It's not just my Witness era () , I genuinely want to better understand and will make an effort to research.
  14. Sis, I had no idea something like a mixed marriage is still an issue? All we hear in the media is police brutality. I grew up in Sydney, a major city and not the equal of Southern America. I've never personally seen or experienced the level of racism that I'm learning about everyday. Sorry if I'm discovering the extent of black racism growing up caucasian slower than a black person living it. I never implied racism isn't an issue, or denied the fact black people are still ridiculed. I was refrencing the fact that I didn't know just how terrible it still is.
  15. I meant artistically pretentious, she was taking herself way too seriously
  16. You say it as if everyone is supposed to automatically know the plight of black people in the US, but how are we to know until told? For example, I grew up thousands of miles away in Australia. Thank you for helping us in the thread to better understand the extent of racism still existing today, but no one will listen when you belittle them. All it takes to educate someone is to tell them.
  17. It's literally the most pretentious thing she has done
  18. Madonna - Physical Attraction Like A Virgin - Over and Over True Blue - Jimmy Jimmy Like A Prayer - Act of Contrition Erotica - In This Life Bedtime Stories - I'd Rather Be Your Lover Ray of Light - Shanti/Ashtangi Music - Paradise (Not For Me) American Life - Easy Ride Confessions On A Dance Floor - Forbidden Love Hard Candy - Incredible MDNA - Superstar Rebel Heart - Ghosttown/Illuminati/Hold Tight etc
  19. It seems like she is getting rid of bonus tracks completely, thank God. Hopefully the track list will be thought out like Honeymoon too.
  20. I must say I don't really get why Bowie wasn't a fan, he was normally quite cordial to everyone?
