personally,I don't really care about charts,but it's always fun to play a game of "I-told-you-so" when people doubt Madonna.Remember just yesterday,Ace was insisting that NONE of the songs on this album will reach the Top 10? Several weeks ago,VoicesCarry basically said the same thing.

i trust Madonna's pop ear more than yours though. She has made her living off of it for 23 years.

Ah, but it failed her on AL, did it not? Some artists reach a point where they become out-of-touch with the record-buying public and/or their lyrical concerns become too complex for the majority of that demographic (which is heavily weighted with very young people).



You may wanna re-think that statement."Hung Up" is a Number seven single in America right now (Number One in many other countries),and the video has been Number One on MTV's TRL (which caters mainly to the very young people that you mentioned) for nearly a week now.Seems to me that Madonna is having no problems connecting with the record-buying public.And I'm shocked that you are still insisting that "Hung Up" is too complex for the pop audience...lol...read the lyrics,it's not hard to understand or relate to.

"Hung Up" benefitted from a time-tested lyrical perspective (the obsessed lover) and momentum from the excitement of the album release. And it still didn't crack the Top 10!

It still might.



It just did lol


speaking of "time-tested lyrical perspectives"....."Sorry" is about a woman who is fed up with her lying boyfriend.There's nothing complex about that."Push" concerns a woman praising her man for "pushing" her to be the best person she can be.I'd argue that there's nothing hard to understand about that.And "Jump" (the other potential single) is about letting go and taking risks.Again,I fail to see how these lyrical topics are too complex and too cryptic for the mainstream audience to relate to.I mean,how much simpler does Madonna have to make it? LOL

Cleopatra had her way
Matahari too
whether they were good or bad
is strictly up to you
Life is a paradox
and it doesn't make much sense
can't have the femme without the fatale
please don't take offense

don't let the fruit rot under the vine
fill up your cup and let's drink the wine
better the devil that you know
your love for me will grow



Am I the only one who just LOVES that verse?? lol

I switched it up to "Physical Attraction" instead since we ran out of spoken parts from "Everybody".

"Hung Up" is Madonna's 36th Top Ten single in the US,making her Number Two on the list of artists with the most Top 10 hits in the US.


Elvis Presley has the most Top Ten singles in the US (38) so he is Number One on that list.


Two more Top Ten singles to go,and Madonna could beat his record hmmm

Hmmm so if she if has the best selling single and the most requested video why isn't radio playing it?

If the singles were determined by more sales she'd be #1 but what does Clear Channel have against her?
