Manuel + Celebration = Andy Warholesque Madonnuel via Mr Brainwash's cover for the '34 Songs That Changed the World' Celebration.
Okay, so that picture might be the most horrifying thing I have ever posted on here (give or take a Swank picture, ha!) but I couldn't NOT share my 'Celebration'-ised picture (oh that you could also Vogue-ise, Music-ise, Erotica-ise and Hung-Up-ise yourself...)
Thanks to Boy Culture for leading me there (and sure, I could have used a non-bearded pic, but where's the fun in that?)
Is it me, or should Madge try and have different type of dreams?
I'm so Stupid
I'm so stupid 'Cause I used to live In a fuzzy dream And I used to believe In a pretty pictures That were all around me But now I know for sure That I was stupid
Miles Away
I just woke up from a fuzzy dream You never would believe those things that I had seen I looked in the mirror and I saw your face You looked right through me, you were miles away
How does one go about reviewing Madonna's new CD? I could go into great detail about every song, or I could take a page out of Madge's (song)book and make it a bit more interesting. Madonna may only have 4 minutes to save the world, but I only have 4 words to review every song. Let's see if I can make it make sense:
Hard Candy (2008)
Candy Shop
I'll be your one-stop candy-store Raw Sugar; Good Beat! 4 Minutes We only got 4 minutes to save the world JT + Timbaland + Madonna = Hot
Give it 2 Me No need to catch my breath Gay Rave, Party On!
Heartbeat You know I feel it in my heartbeat Electro-funk - beat-tastic.
Miles Away I guess we’re at our best when we're miles away Breathy repetitive echo loop.
She's Not Me She doesn't have my name Hilarious lyrics::funky song.
Incredible Can't get my head around it Wanna dance - love it!
Beat Goes On On and on, on the beat goes Great cardio song, no?
Dance 2night Let the music pull you through it Will't grow on me?
Spanish Lesson Entiendo means I get it Oh Madge, no mas...
Devil Wouldn't Recognize You You hide your sadness behind your smile 'Over and Over': Next!
Voices Treat me like a curse Frozen throwback, mellow sound.
Madonna and JT saving the world in what has become my favourite video of the year
AND
Starbuck coming back, a shaven Baltar and the rest of the BSG crew back... all in one weekend?!
Nice.
Re: Madonna's 4 Minutes video. Random Thoughts Edition.
I love the choreography (especially the grocery store/moving conveyor belt bit) so much I can only try and do it justice with my half-haphazard attempts at emulating it in front of my laptop screen.
I know I'm echoing pretty much everyone alive when I say this but: what the heck do I need to do to look as good as Madonna does?
Is it me or was anyone else reminded of that other Madonna-late 90s/early 00s icon video (Me Against the Music)? Maybe it's just the intricate labyrinthian feel to it, as well as its emphasis on choreography and sexual tension... or maybe I'm just insane.
How does Mariah Carey have more Billboard #1s than Madonna? THAT was actually my recurring thought as I kept watching this video - mainly because I kept comparing it to Touch My Body... no comparison. Full Stop.
Re: The Return of Battlestar Galactica. Random Thoughts Edition.
Is anyone left who doesn't feel that this is indeed, one of TV's finest?
I'm so happy Baltar got the shaven treatment - as I see as this season's 'Let's get Jamie back to being thin' decision. And I applaud it.
Starbuck vs Roslin? I would not want to be in the middle of that confrontation. Too bad we didn't get to see that in an Unfinished Busines-style boxing match...
Welcome Back! I missed you guys! - with a gleeful smile, what was on my mind through the entire episode.
I know I joked about how Rihanna is the Post-Human version of Beyonce in an earlier post... but as some commentators mentioned, she's just the result of Pop Music. Which led me to ask:
