What an annoying thing to say

Be for real

The comparison doesn't work because Tina and Cher never did choreography on an athletic scale for decades of their careers. Tina had a lot of energy but never did intricate choreography. and Cher hasn't moved from the neck down without assistance since the 80s. Janet and Jlo are the only other female performers who did the most in their 20s, 30s, 40s and kept the same energy in their 50s, and neither of them were doing it on the scale and frequency of Madonna throughout those decades.

Very much so. Streaming in 2020s is essentially like CD plays in the 80s/90s/00s. If charts were based on CD plays then every legend would have wildly different stats and charts would've been as meaningless as they are today.

My bad you're right, it's The Fate of Ophelia which matches Music. The rest of my post still stands though.

Taylor would be in her GHV2 era currently, and has already released 2 albums (3 with Encore) that could be considered American Life sized flops (relative to her usual success). Her last worldwide #1 smash hit was Anti-Hero (16 years in) vs Madonna's Music (18 years in). To match the success of Hung Up, Taylor would need a worldwide #1 smash hit in 2029. Even 4 Minutes is a feat 26 years into Madonna's career so Taylor will also need the same success in 2032. Eras Tour would be her Drowned World Tour so her next 3 tours will have to outdo the last one to match Madonna's Re-Invention-Confessions-S&S run, rather than peaking early. Basically she isn't close and it will take a long time to find out.

Everything is too high

Only if it also plagiarises a Madonna classic

Bigger the better

"I need somebody to sing" after you kicked out all the vocalists

It's already too authoritarian

Best era is Loose, best album is Back to Black

Not even interesting enough to be a mess. Just boring and uninspired

Confessions II is the most successful album/era by a woman in her 60s in the history of music...
