By the way, not to get off topic, but what did you think of the Chicago box set you got for Christmas? I am loving the Chicago box set! It's just amazing.Previously,I only had a hits compilation by them,so this is my first time hearing much of their non-album songs,and I'm really enjoying it.I am now eager to get the individual albums,most of which have been remastered.I'll probably have to start a separate thread to discuss this more fully...lol... | |

Record a handful of tracks with those guys and she would have a great album.But knowing Madonna,she'll probably work with someone we've never heard of. no, i'm sorry, i don't like it. you said she shouldn't work with Mirwais again because he's run out of ideas. i think that's the problem, even moreso, with her working with Dallas and Jamiroquai. they can occasionally find a new groove to work for the following 5 years, but at this point, neither is doing anything new at all. and Remy Shand... nah. she needs a professional. "Neither is doing anything new at all" Well,let's be honest,is there ANY producer in pop music doing anything "new" these days? I'm not so concerned with Maddy making a "groundbreaking album" (whatever that is),I just want a well-produced,catchy and fun album from her. I happen to think Jamiroquai is at the top of their game these days.I'm thinking Maddy could do a few club-oriented tracks with them.Listen to some of the more techno-influenced tracks from 'A Funk Odyssey' ("Feels Good",for example),and imagine Madonna working a groove like that...lol...it would be just awesome. As for Dallas Austin...his recent productions are great.He has grown as a producer since the 'Bedtime Stories' days and he has even tackled more rock-oriented material (TLC's "Unpretty"...Pink's "Like A Pill",etc).Stick him and Maddy into a studio again,and I bet they will come up with stuff as amazing as "Secret" (one of her most underrated singles). Remy Shand would be a great choice.I'm thinking Maddy could do a few slow/midtempo tracks with him.I predict that,in a few years,this guy will be HUGE and everyone would wanna work with him.Madonna should be the first | |

AaronAlmighty said: VinnyM27 said: DavidEye said: One thing you guys have to realize is,Madonna's singles are still doing well on the Dance music charts.So,maybe that's why she keeps releasing all these maxi-singles and numerous remixes.I doubt that anyone in her camp or at Warners truly expects "Love Profusion" to creep into the Top 40 on the pop charts.It's really just something to tide her fans over until the next album.Madonna releases a new album every two years,and every album has at least four singles,so the pattern for 'American Life' has been consistent with her other CDs.
I'm one of those Madonna fans that buys EVERYTHING so I have no problem with yet another set of remixes  Actually, no it hasn't. Warners dropped "Music" after "What it Feels Like For A Girl", which was extermly odd since it had much more commerical sounding songs on there. Plus. "What.." was a slight hit, even if it was more like a ballad compared to "Music" and "Don't Tell Me". So it really isn't consistant. Plus, two singles in less than two months? That just isn't normal. I think WB is trying to push the single again since some of their artists are getting airplay. Jewel also has a new single out for "2 Beomce 1". I've never even heard of her previous single "Stand", which is out in two forms! well WB *did* have further plans for the MUSIC album at the time. Amazing was selected by them as the next single, and they even sent a promo out for it in Europe. Madonna wanted to do Impressive Instant instead, and she put their foot down over it. she even removed Amazing from the DWT setlist to keep Warner from getting ideas about doing a live video for it. a compromise was reached by making Impressive Instant an club-only promo single. further plans to do Runaway Lover were abandoned (though Calderone and Tracy Young had both already done remixes for it).  yeah,Aaron is correct.Even before 'Music' was released,Warners had plans to release five singles from it.I really think it was Madonna herself who had other ideas.Execs at Warners had extremely high hopes for "What It Feels Like For A Girl".But Maddy did a controversial video for it,which effectively killed it's chances of becoming a huge hit (sound familiar? LOL).Then,she clashed with them over the song "Impressive Instant",which she really wanted to release as a single.They felt that the song was too unconventional,and wanted "Amazing" to be the next single.Maddy retaliated by removing "Amazing" from her Drowned World tour setlist,and in the end,no further singles were released (although "Impressive Instant" did survive as a club-only promo single).
The point is...Warners actually did have a long-term promotional strategy for 'Music',but somewhere along the way,things didn't quite go as planned.But this wasn't entirely their fault. [This message was edited Mon Jan 12 13:26:03 PST 2004 by DavidEye] | |

I'd have to side with Madonna there- Impressive Instant would've been huge, and Amazing was the weakest track on that album... | |

to make them worth hearing, yes, generally... That's why she's slumming it in "Honey", I guess. She needs to take a break for at least 2 years, especially with the reception that "This Is Not A Test!" got. Just don't do any Gap ads, film promos, or guest vocals for 2 years then come back with a kickass album and we'll remember why we love you. | |

I remember when "Music" was out Madonna's site asked what do you want the next single to be and II had a huge precentage. BTW, it seems like Madonna is really not interested in this album at all when you consider the struggle over "Music" and her clashing with execs. It seems like she doesn't care about this record as much. | |

Just don't do any Gap ads, film promos, or guest vocals for 2 years then come back with a kickass album and we'll remember why we love you. I think some people might be forgetting that her second album either didn't sell as well as the first or just didn't live up the critics and fans expectations. I just know that it was hardly as impressive as "Supa Dupa Fly" was and then she came came back two years later with "a comeback" and a song like "Get Your Freak On" that just blew people away and an amazing album "So Addictive". Then "Under Construction" was really something new but "This is Not A Test" was overkill, and only one year later? And while I haven't heard "This is Not A Test", I'd just like to point out that it got a 3 star review in Allmusic.com while UC and SA both got 4 and a half. So that is just one example of a not so glowing review. | |

"Music" "Don't Tell Me" "What It Feels Like For A Girl" (with a better,less offensive video) "Impressive Instant" (released just as the tour began) "Gone" That's five strong singles right there. | |

Agreed.Plus,do we really want Madonna to move into a hip-hop direction? | |

to make them worth hearing, yes, generally... That's why she's slumming it in "Honey", I guess. She needs to take a break for at least 2 years, especially with the reception that "This Is Not A Test!" got. Just don't do any Gap ads, film promos, or guest vocals for 2 years then come back with a kickass album and we'll remember why we love you. the reception "This Is Not A Test!" got? it got universally rave reviews...No, it didn't (see AllMusic among others). Most reviewers said "it's great, but, y'know, she's on autopilot somewhat here, and it certainly doesn't compare to "Under Construction"". Also, sales were dismal. Debuted at #13 and dropped like a stone (certified platinum but has sold much less). | |

WB and Madonna really dropped the ball on the "Music" album. | |
