    I just listened the dark city snippet again since a person said it sounds recent a few answers up and I agree! Tho her voice has been sounding kinda uvish lately to me so it’s hard to differentiate. 
     

    I also have the same confusion every time I listen iyldwm. Her vocals sound too new to be uv but too uv to be new?

     

    edit: also the dark city production sound too much like drews? 

     

    What do you mean with her voice sounds UV-ish lately?

    I think she re - recorded the UV outtakes on BB.

    looking at this is so shocking tbh

    madonna pretty much hardcore flopping after 4 minutes to make a very brief comeback because of the super bowl and then flop even harder

    europe was a little kinder but she freefell after living for love

    the ageism is very apparent here teebs especially since rebel heart had all the ingredients to smash in the US - madame x is a little more understandable in it's floppage but considering that american life was a major success everywhere that wasn't the US it's still pretty obvious ageism :bebe:

     

    Really, I try not to care much about the charts, but the way people paid Rebel Heart dust is a hate crime :pls: 

    She served so many good performances and so many good ballads , and it's like she can't win. When she makes very dance songs she's trying to hard, and when she does ballads they flop.... but nothing can erase her legacy, she changed pop music forever

    What makes American Life iconic for me was the concept, the lyrical content,the subject matter she disussed throughout the album. American Life helped me to see a different side of Madonna - not just a privileged Hollywood blonde icon but rather something very human,very relatable about her: A human being whos also struggling with fame, insecurities, fear, everydaylife, social norms/prejudice & having her thoughts & knowledge about whats going on in the world.

     

    The main sound of the album wasnt for me, and it still isnt now. However: i appreciate her effort & atempt to experiment w electro-clash beats but its just not good enough or timeless in my opinion - therefore the sound of the album is what keeps it from being S-tier in my book. But still, i did rank it only 1 tier lower because she was such a baddie,a  nonconformist in this era, from her brunette look, to her acoustic stripped down ballads - where her songwriting & vocalperformance really shine through.

     

    And its weird that her presentation of American Life doesnt sound 'human' (since the electro-clash, the autotune vibes took control, she sounds like a creepy robot),but it still sounds human through her writing AT THE SAME TIME. :true:

     

    She was a total baddie. She knew she was going to get cancelled, but she did it anways. US radio banned her for  10 years (if I'm not mistaken) , and when those 10 years expired they stopped playing her bc she was too old.

    But the way she still came out with Confessions and her career peaked again was icon material

    She's been releasing at least one game changing, career defining song per album ever since her debut

     

    The gag is that it's looking like there will be even better songs on the record 

     

    Would you mind elaborating? I absolutely agree with it but I can't decide for some albums.

    I think the most game changing song of her was off to the races tbh. The lyrics and the way she alternated her vocals, she totally snapped, absolutely untouchable

    like im prob being delusional & reading too much into it but I also feel like Lana really is always super intentional w everything she does so maybe just maybe....:wink:

    oh yeah she definitely did not "copy" the aesthetic of cover just because she thought it looked cute... I think I'm going to be listening to that soundtrack

    I know its already been posted a couple times but for reference incase anyone hasn't seen it yet,  Lanas album cover was very likely based on this:

     40-EA9-A8-B-8-DC9-420-D-B55-B-A43-E28-C4-D251.jpg

    I was curious what the film (originally a screenplay) is about incase it might have influenced the choice & heres two short summaries I came across:

     

    "A small-town woman falls in love with a stranger sent to close down the local railway. Her manipulative mother schemes to drive the outsider away, intending her daughter to marry someone else, which sets in motion a fierce battle of wills between parent and child. Romantic drama, starring Robert Redford, Natalie Wood and Charles Bronson"

     

    "In this film adaptation of a Tennessee Williams play, Alva (Natalie Wood) is a radiant Southern belle who clashes with her oppressive mother, Hazel (Kate Reid). Hazel is trying to force Alva to take an affluent husband, but the young woman has eyes for Owen Legate (Robert Redford), a handsome city slicker visiting their tiny Mississippi town. Hazel disapproves of Owen and forces him to stop seeing her daughter. In an act of revenge, Alva takes up with her mother's beau, J.J. (Charles Bronson)"

     

    :coffee: ....:gasp::gasp::gasp:

     

    Ofc it may just be an aesthetical thing but with what we know about her relationship to Patty....HELPPPPP
