all about Madonna

To Paul:
Let me tell you something Paul, 1- You should speak for yourself and not for most Madonna fans. Because even the best of scientist cannot measure how even a representative portion of Madonna fans feel. Their numbers are so big wide spread around the world; 2- if you and those fans prefer lady gaga over Madonna, then I can tell you that they were not real fans to begin with, they just use her as an excuse to trash Madonna; 3- Your definition of class and mediocoreness is certainly not ours(not Madonna’s and not her fans). So be my guest and just go listen to gaga, spears, mariah,,,,,, and other dime a dozen wannabe starlets. Because Madonna is NOT going to do what others expect her to do, she never has and never will. If she didn’t do that when she was a poor and upcoming star, she most certainly won’t do that now that she has concurred the world and ruled it for nearly 3 decades.

In fact, the true Madonna fans love Madonna because of her defiance, because of her ability to take simple concepts and turn them into great work. Madonna has built such a great track record that I can go out and buy her record without having to hear it first on the radio. I have never been disappointed by her. She has always delivered the goods. I can’t get enough of to the title track ‘Celebration’. At the club where I go to sometimes, the album version gets hot reception.

So you can bend it and twist it as music as you want, but regardless of what you say her target audiences still love and appreciate her work. Madonna has just finished a world tour and this song is a great excuse to party and celebrate. When I come home from work I am not in the mood for gaga or crying mariah, but in the mood for a cool, refreshing up-tempo song to make me remember my last vacation and think of the next things that I have to do. Celebration does just that.
Lets not forget that Madonna’s last studio album Hard Candy, became the third best selling record of 2008 in the world(USA included). It sold more copies in some markets than others, but so what that is always the case with everything. One cannot expect a product to do equal business in every single market. We are talking about the overall record sales of 2008. And not just one week or one market.

When the chips are all counted the way this collection album is selling now, and will continue to sell, it will outsell all the other albums that are currently on the charts.

Madonna fans have said all of this before, but you guys(fake Madonna fans)don’t really seem to get it. We don’t expect you to like anything that Madonna does. So don’t waste your time and just go and listen to gaga, mariah, or other dime a dozen wannabee starlets.

To me she sounds as cool and care free, yet wise as the very first time I heard her songs blasting in the clubs.

You buy or you leave her record. YOU DO NOT OWN MADONNA.

There are still plenty of people around the world who will continue to love Madonna, simply because she defies what people expect of her and still goes out there and does her own thing. Just because some people don’t like what she does, doesn’t mean she should not do the things that she likes, true artists go by their own feelings and instincts and not only by marketability of every single thing that they want to do. If you like to get in the groove/ mood with her then you are welcome to get to know her work. Otherwise why bother coming in here trying to tell her what to wear, how to sing, who to sleep with, what not to sing,,,,,,,

Hey, I am glad Madonna listens to her own timing, mood and instincts. Great minds don’t sit there like silly girls waiting for approvals. They just get on with it and do their own things, their own ways, where and and when they want.

Obviously, there are so many hypocrites in this world. Hypocrites, no good for nothing Hypocrites.
Obviously her critics lack Madonna’s class.

I need to address a few points here:
1) After listening to CELEBRATION (the cd)I do not see a decline in her music or talent. The songs CELEBRATION and REVOLVER are great songs, different, but great. She is slowly merging her US and global fans back together after AMERICAN LIFE tanked in the US
2)I am an American and I resent hearing how US radios sucks. Yes, during the Bush years, it was all hip hip, but now we have Lady Gaga and newer, more New York sounding Americans on the radio. US radio is finally getting it together, albeit slowly.
3)I LOVED LOVED LOVED HARD CANDY!!!
4) This is a GREATEST HITS cd! It’s still #1 on the GLOBAL chart!
5)Warner has done almost ZERO promotion in the US, unlike in Europe and the rest of the world.
6) Madonna herself is in transition from a Euro life to an American life, no pun intended. Give the woman a break, she has four ki

U.S. are not the world.
celebration is still at no1 in the world album chart and the celebration single is at no8 in the world single chart!
she conquers the world once again.

Her album drops? So what? People here obviously think that only the US matters. She still owns the rest of the world since she’s number one( global) and number one in Europe. Instead of celebrating this fact, people here are bitching about her lack of creativity, the fact she’s supposedly losing fans, or that she should come up with something new.
Ever start to wonder why she’s number one in Europe and the rest of the world? Because they know how to celebrate and to appreciate someone who has been in this industry so long!

Am I the only Madonna fan who is starting to not like her? She’s becoming like this weird plastic old lady!

This CD is a big reality check for Madonna….after a successful world tour it turns that her fans have NO appetite for her old material…I CANT BELIEVE THIS WASNT A REMIX CD…..BORINGGGG….we DEMAND new material…..M needs to go away for at least one year, get refreshed and come back big with something different and exciting or she will NOT stay relevent…and believe me Madonna IS a statistic person right down to the last dollar!

Misery loves company… the post below states she is dominating the world & European charts in her 3rd week and it gets hardly any comments and yet this one has tons. Everyone just loves to bash and make negative comments, nothing new.

MADONNA DIVINISIMA, SHE IS BIGGER THAT ANYONELSE, BEYOND THE REST OF BLONDES AND COPYS,REFERENCES, OHHHHHH SUPER SIMBOL OF THE 8O, 90, AND NOW , OHHHHH SUPER ETERNAL QUEEN OF OUR TIMES, SHE SHOULD BE LIVE WITH OBAMA LIKE A MEGA DIVINISMA TOTAL, REENCARNATION OF GARBO, DIETRICH, MARLENE, NO ONE IS SO INSPIRING IN THIS EPOQUE, WITHOUT MADONNA THIS WILL EXTRE BORING, WE NEED MADONNA, IS THE CREME, THE REST MEDIOCRE, LONG LIVE SUPER DIVINISIMA SACRE MADONNA

Hey, I think it’s pretty respectable that she is still in the top 20 with this CD. I mean, we all know that most people already have most of these songs AND the U.S. market is very fickle and fly-by-night, so continuing to sell a decent amount of CDs is a testament to her overall staying power. Most of these songs are so old and can be heard in elevators, so anyone buying them is pretty amazing. Let’s see what’s next for her!

“Madonna is glad the infamous naked photos of her were published early in her career – because the scandal made her determined to succeed.
The Material Girl’s raunchy reputation skyrocketed when a series of sexy shots – in which she appeared totally naked – surfaced in Playboy and Penthouse magazines in 1985.

Industry experts feared the scandal would end the singer’s career – but she turned it to her advantage and became one of the most famous stars in the world.
And Madonna admits she was so outraged at criticism of the photos, she developed a steely attitude that helped her survive in the music industry.”

She tells Rolling Stone magazine, “That was the first time I was aware of saying ‘F**k you’ with my attitude. ‘You’re trying to put me down because of this?’ I (wasn’t) going to let public opinion dictate my own feelings about myself. I (wasn’t) going to apologise for anything I’ve done.”

It is amazing the twist and turn that life takes.

That was exactly the day when in my mind and in the mind of millions of other people around the world Madonna became a cultural institution, the day when emancipation finally began, the day when she became the queen of universe. Since then I have always looked up to her with highest respect. To me Madonna has always been far more than a pretty face on the cover of a magazine. Her attitude and steel determination is of highest order and can only be worshiped.

how about the celebration video collection?is it still on top music video on billboard?

So sad..what happen with US??is it because of economy crisis or what?maybe US fans need more new touch from the M…or maybe US fans more eager to listen to late MJ or miss Spears..we’ll see!
