Madonna
 

What is your opinion of her as an artist?

She's an amazing businesswoman no doubt about it.

Yes as a business woman she's shrewd
but the way she dresses & dance
her stage act can be kinda lewd
She's like a virgin but
you could never call her a prude
She wrote a childrens and that's a little skewed
from her other work where
She appeared in the nude

Meh. I liked some of her songs when I was young, when she was at her prime. She needs to retire, or at least quit trying to act like she's still in her 20s.

Her Ray Of Light album is mighty fine - thanks mostly to William Orbit, I'm sure.

All I know is that people keep saying that she redefined pop with Michel Jackson. But no one explains the reason of that saying.

When it comes to Madonna, I like her 80's music the most. The songs I have from her are "Borderline", "Burning Up", "Dress You Up In My Love", "Get Into The Groove", "Like A Virgin", "Lucky Star", "Material Girl", and "Open Your Heart To Me". I also have another song from her which is called "4 Minutes" but I think it's okay.

i agree with the amazing buisness woman comment, not one song of hers comes to mind. except like a virgin which was way before my time. but she should give the leotard a by.
and give up the gym.
everytime i see her in a celeb magazine her appearance makes me shudder.

not attractive in the slightest.

Lol that picture always makes me think of Iggy Pop.

now you mention it...

Madonna and Iggy should arm wrestle

madonna would tan iggy pops arse at an arm wrestle :laughing:

Madonna is awesome. Particularly her classic 80's tunes and early 90's.


I don't mind her new stuff but it doesn't have the same quality as her old material. It's also kinda....weird (for me, anyways) to know that a 51 year old woman is singing songs that are played in a club....I mean, good for her, but it almost comes across as so damn fake, for some reason. She walks around in these skimpy outfits and still uses sex to sell and it's retarded because she's 51....just, no.

For real. And your new avatar is hot. :o:

I so don't get the claim that Madonna is the queen of pop. Other than her being overly sexualised during times when it wasn't the norm, how is she so? Some of her videos are pretty well made, but it wasn't exactly her input, she just represented them.

I agree that that's the case with some of her videos. Like the Hollywood one...she pretty much stole it from a photographer.

But she's not without her merits. For some of her videos, she had so much input that she may as well have directed them. Like, in Express Yourself, she did basically everything, from costume selection, to casting and set-design.

Still, she's a covetous bitch. :laughing:

She looks scary now, but back in the day she was amazing. Her music still makes me smile though, espescially the 80s stuff.

Well, she's probably the the most successful female pop singer of the past 30 years if not of all time. I'd imagine that's why someone would call her the queen of pop.

Edit: Some info from her Wikipedis entry...

i agree with you :thumb:

she looks ugly in that picture although I find her pretty in several magazines.

I think she's very clever - she knew what she wanted to do and she did it - but as a musician, I don't think she's exceptional. Her songs are really good (or at least her old ones are, can't say much for the new ones) but I've never been amazed by her voice as I am with some of the other people on the charts.

Madonna's choreography was well done. Her music was exciting (danceable) to say the least. She is still the Queen of Pop.

I like the electric funk bass-line on Into The Groove.



These are a few of my favorite singles by Madonna.

Didn't care for her back then, don't care for her now. The only reason I know some of her songs is because:

One) Idiot drunkards sing some of her songs.
Two) Never Been Kissed
Three) That hype when she did that stunt with Britney Spears
Four) James Bond movie.

(Idiot Drunkards?):laughing: please enlighten me to who you suggest is a good artist and performer? "by the way, I do love your above list", very informative.:rolleyes:

Shouldn't this be in the Pop forum?

I would think the fact that she's the best-selling female artist of all time would be the main reason you'd know some of her songs.

You can see her as the best selling female performer of "all time" but that doesn't change the fact that I would still know her songs just because of that. As mentioned earlier, those are the reasons why I know her.

I don't care for her at all. Get over it.

"I don't have to get over it! You! get over it". Mr Blank? or what ever your user name represents?

Well be that as it may person from Ohio. There are people who are very much in the spotlight of the media (or have been), it doesn't necessarily mean I would know about them or their career. She never appealed to me.

:rolleyes:Yes, that may well be, she never appealed to you. But why in the lords name do you dislike her music and as a performer? Answer that mr. smarty? I say she's "The Queen of Pop"!

Well, for one, I just said she never appealed to me so that right there means, I do not want to listen to her music, or see her perform. She does not interest me at all. And from the songs that I had to endure I quite disliked. I don't like her voice or anything about her.

You can say and think she is the queen of pop, go ahead, I'm not asking you a million questions to prove your opinion. It's your own.

It's not just "how I see her", it's actually a fact.

I don't care for her either. What's your point?

Fact or something, it doesn't change how I came about to know her songs. In my case that's not how it happened just because she became best seller.

"I like the way you ask a question when you're really just giving a biased answer". Are you asking me to give you a million answers to your questions? If she does not interest you at all, as you stated, then why do you post negativity about her? You think you can just go around anywhere and say what you "think you think"!? About Madonna (Queen Of POP)!?

Man, you just asked why I don't like her. It's going to sound negative. And yeah, I'm entitled to give an opinion about people and their (lack of) talent.

Accept that there is someone out in this world that does not like Madonna nor her music.
It happens.

:confused:

And I despise the way you say "(lack of) talent". And yes you may be entitled to an opinion, but that doesn't mean you can just come around here, spreading nothing but Trash! About Madonna. Why do you sread negativity about such a "GREAT" star? When you know yourself, that she is very talented and great in every aspect as a Star Performer of All-Time!

If you read carefully, I said people. Not just your queen of pop Madonna. I wasn't spreading trash, but only answering your incessant questions. My opinion on her differs from your own. Yet you're calling my answers "spreading negativity trash". Quit fueling the fire, man. I said my opinion and I'm done answering your inquires about someone you clearly think highly of.

I love Madonna...she's a talented artist and great business woman, but she needs to stop trying to look and act younger than she is. I saw some recent photos of her and was like "what the hell did she do to her face?!"
