Confessions was a wonderful record. I can’t understand how she went from something so good like that to something so bad like Hard Candy.

Maybe it was because of her fights with Guy and her divorce that she couldn’t concentrate on the music.

But I hope she comes back strong with her next record.

Long before Mariah released a relatively credible song (her best to date) ‘the roof’, Madonna made Erotica album and the song ‘where life begins’, which is a true dark masterpiece. I think all Madonna albums are educational in a fun way. Before Erotica, nobody knew that toe sucking was actually very stimulating. And if anyone did know, he or she would not dare to talk about it. While in those days MJ was singing ‘keep it in the closet’, Madonna insisted on transparency and throwing wide open the borderlines.

To me, true emancipation began with Madonna.
Nowadays Riahana tries to do vogue, Gaga tries to do ‘in to the groove’ and they all fail to recapture Madonna’s maDgic.

If they are lucky, other artists manage to create one of two good albums in their entire careers.

Madonna has had 11 fantastic full-length studio albums with hits as well as great b-sides covering three decades. You can never put all of Madonna greats on one collection. Her latest double disc collection gives a good overview of her career. However, thank god it does not cover everything. Some things are still left on the original albums. Uplifting Nothing really matters, Funky Beat Goes On, Dark I want You, immaculate Paradise not for me, American life,,,,,

There is only one Madonna.

Madonna pups up on many best lists, one after the other. The haters can never stop that.

Good works have a way of reaching the audiences and critics alike. Madonna’s work have always been avant-garde. Her work is too good for some people’s ears at the time. It took years for some people to recognize that True Blue was a diamond of an album, way better than anything Whitney could ever offer.
Many of the pop records from that era sound so outdated. But True Blue still sounds and looks fresh and new like the very first time.

Confessions on the Dance not only had the International mega hit Hung Up(number 1 in 41 countries) it also had the dreamy trance dance floor number 1 ‘Get Together’ as well as cabaret style take it or leave it ‘Like it or Not’.
