Now that I'm falling in love with the disc, this is my ranking of tracks fro best to worst:
Sorry (better be the next single) Jump Hung Up (I think the best choice for the first single...a fun, light song and then hit them with something like Jump or Sorry, which will probably be a bigger hit....) Forbidden Love Get Together Push Let It Will Be Issac I Love New York How High Like It Or Not Furture Lovers (if it weren't for the spoken word, this could go in the trash....I could hear an artist like Bowie or Prince recording a song with a similar sounding chorus....and it would also be the "What The Fuck Where They Thinking Putting This On An Album" track. Boring!) After giving it some time, I would have to say that this album is among her best in years (that includes I would say it's up there with "Ray Of Light" but not with "Bedtime Stories"). It doesn't have as many highs as AL (which had three great songs IMHO, a few ok ones and some real garbage). It's a good consistent album and if a few of the tracks were tweaked, it would be an even better album, maybe her best. | |

I think "Issac" would be a better track without Yithzak. It's not that his singing is bad....it's just it feels like a tag on and really isn't needed. It's the one song on the album I can't stand. :gag: | |

LIFE STYLE EXTRA (UK) - Madonna is poised to confirm her Queen of Pop reputation by topping both the singles and albums charts this weekend.
Her hot new LP, Confessions On A Dance Floor, has sold nearly 250,000 copies since going on sale on Monday and is poised to become the biggest-selling album of the year. However the debut album of Potty Pete Doherty's new band Babyshambles has failed to spark much enthusiasm among music lovers since also being released on Monday. Down In Albion is poised to enter the chart at around No 6. Meanwhile Madonna's single, Hung Up, has sold nearly twice as many copies as Westlife's You Raise Me Up, confirming her superstar status. Gennaro Castaldo, of music retailers HMV, said Madonna's achievement was a fantastic double and showed that she was worthy of her place in the pantheon of pop royalty. He said: "Both the album and her single Hung Up have been a massive event in the shops. We have struggled to fill the shelves back up quickly enough. She is a real superstar, the mere mention of her name causes a frenzy. "It will be a double number one and the strange thing is Westlife will now have the honour of a double number two. "Madge has another huge hit on her hands here. Everybody is humming the single and I have not read a bad review of the album. "On the other hand Babyshambles will only appeal to a small fan base." | |

He was the guy break dancing in "Hollywood" on the Re-Invention Tour, he's the guy in the chonise food shopping dancing in "Hung Up", and she gave him a guitar in I'm Gonna Tell You A Secret. | |

Wow at those Madonna pics. She looks great in those pics. I wonder if she diets a lot?? I thought I read that she was just doing yoga now for her workouts. I also read that she used to be more particular about her diet, but since she married, she'll have a beer now and again. Wow. She's in great shape.
Anyway as far as Cloud is concerned, he is so very CUTE!!! I think I've seen him work with some other artists as well or at least a guy who looks quite a bit like him. Whoever he is or if it's the same person, Cloud is really good dancer. I also think that Jamie King,her long-time choreographer is a cutie, too. Plus he has done some great work for Madonna. | |
