It should be banned for being so explicitly...fun!

the cover must really be shocking

I don't get what Madonna is doing. Well, I think I get it but it's not working. Maybe the music is selling but this design is not good. On one hand there's the neon glam disco thing and then there's the casual "MySpace" pic. Sure combining these elements could be interesting but its execution is too literal...its lazy. Whatever is behind this must also be behind her most recent videos because they're lacking too...couldn't even watch them more than halfway thru.

It's like someone wanted to go retro but the fear was that it would alienate so they threw in "what the kids are doing".

Go retroglam or hit the street. If you want to do both, at least, find a clever way to combine them. This isn't it.

impartial.

like the concept, but could've used a better collage. maybe in colour.

Looks like a high school class field trip.

Madonna: "C'mon kids, wave at the camera!


Now get your asses back on the bus."

I really like it.

It's decidedly unchic and sort of conveys the mindless good time vibe of the album. For sure any photo worthy of a single cover is labored over, but I think if this looked like any more thought or "dressing up" went into it, it'd ruin the dorky fun of the shot. What I like most is that although everyone has obviously had their hair done, make-up applied and general poses considered, it doesn't look overly polished, and no one here is magazine cover material. It's pretty much Maddie and her current crew in all their average-ness just hanging out.

GOOD TO SEE...

Madonna chillin' with folks half her age.

M.2.K

i can't decide which i like less... the cover or the song.

(flower for chico )

Eh, the design doesn't bother me. Looking at the whole thing, I think full color would have been too jarring. The slight purple tint works fine to make the whole cover look cohesive. That's obviously what the dots are for also. It would have looked too segmented without the dots and in color.

It's kind of fun and informal, which gives it a little warmth. But the picture itself is just very, uninteresting. They could have played around with a few more shots to come up with something more unique.

i guess with as many singles as she's released, she can afford to be completely self-indulgent with one cover image.
