I haven't listened to them yet! Just Living for Love, which I adore.

I gotta get around to it, soon!

Hahahaha!!!

I feel like the only person who has not liked Living for Love. I think it will be a slow burn on me.

And YAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS to 'Bitch, I'm Madonna.' I have EVERY intention of making Nicki's part of the song my Bitca if that gets dropped on a dance floor while I'm at a club.

I love Devil Pray as well. And Unapologetic Bitch was great reggae.

Ghostown stilled my soul yesterday. I have not been having a good week. And yesterday...it just calmed me completely. Easily my favorite. Makes me wonder when was the last time Madge did a ballad like a ballad without techno beats. Miles Away (since I don't count Masterpiece due to soundtrack)

Illumnati...not my favorite but great beat.

And I see all that hanging with Nicki is making Madonna rap a little bit better.

Can we share thoughts on latter-Madonna, when most agree it hasn't been the same? Let's say... everything after MUSIC?

What do you think about American Life, Confessions On A Dancefloor, Hard Candy, MDNA? I know most dislike them, especially HC and MDNA, with the possible exception of Dancefloor. Are there any particular favorites or good things you feel/think about those albums?

I've always loved Miles Away and Give It 2 Me for example, but HATE 4 Minutes. And I think Gang Bang and Masterpiece are brilliant. Dancefloor I've always loved as a whole and stuff like Love Profusion and Nothing Fails are beautiful.

I'm still baffled that "Dress You Up" was considered obscene and scandalous, and that Tipper Gore had the moral authority to make quotes like this (I can't imagine what Tipper would say about music today...):

This is one of my favorites of Madonna. It is such an underrated song.

25 years since the Like A Prayer Pepsi/video controversy, which seems like nothing today by today's standards.

I think Like A Prayer (the song) stands as her best single release ever. It's probably the one Madonna song everyone seems to love, as mentioned in this Slant article.

The late 80's/early 90's is definitely my favourite Madonna era.

I hated this song when it first came out and just recently started loving this song. For some reason I just didn't like it back when.

American Life

Never hated it. I'M STUPID was a fave. DIE ANOTHER DAY was up my alley. NOTHING FAILS brought me to tears. EASY RIDE is my 2nd favorite Madonna coda (GONE from Music being the first). I think the album has withstood the test of time for me.

Confession

LOVED. LOVED. Mostly from SORRY on was just a drug for me. FORBIDDEN LOVE will always be remembered as the last song that a dj loved to play at the end of the night at a lesbian club I went to when I first moved to San Diego. And just how it made everything so magical. And I thought about my boyfriend at the time who was my 2nd serious relationship.

Hard Candy

I loved it at the time, but I am finding it forgetful now. As in people have to remind me it happned forgetful. Funny since it had so many gems that I loved at the time of its release. PS. Oakenfold remix of Give it 2 Me was the s*it back then and totally worth dancing to it.

MDNA

LOVED. But it was up my alley. I have been finding that the end of the cd are more memorable to me than the rest other than ADDICTED though. And of course GANG BANG.

The video for Living For Love is out:

I like the obvious nod to Take a Bow with the video.. and the theme of a bull fighter and bull. In a way, I view the video as part 3 of the story that started with Take a Bow and continued in You'll See... with her finally winning in this video.

Also, like that she isn't naked.

LIke I said, this is not my favorite of her new song.

That said, that video is soooo visually stunning to me. And from the breakdown on, she looks [!@#$%^&*] fierce.

People can say what they want, but she'll always be the most relevant female pop star in music history.

Madonna and Michael Jackson set the template for the definition of what a pop star is, no one else can claim that or is really on that level.
