Sounds... too good to be true.

Well, we'll see soon enough whether she should have or not when The Studio S2 premieres

I agree some of these are really clever and... less obvious than the ones in part 1 if that makes any sense.

LES Girl is so sweet, nostalgic and... gorgeously sad. Do you reckon it's about Dan Gilroy?

If we get stuck with the inferior mixing on the physical copies... ugh.

Some Girls isn't an awful song by itlsef, but it relies too much on notes Madonna can barely hit. She sounds so strained on it. I miss her pre-Evita vocals.

"Everybody is fly" I have that bizarre rap memorized. According to the producer Debbie wrote it in 15 minutes during a recording session.

Jesus Effing Christ, Rapture is my favourite Blondie song, I'm OBSESSED by it. Debbie has been out and about lately, I'd drop dead if she showed up at one of the listening events.

If you take the best tracks from both you can actually put together a pretty great 10 or 12-track album.

Absolut just added two more hours to the countdown. At this point I'm just checking for the lolz, because you can't make this sh1t up.

The countdown is back, now says over 13 hours to go. You can't make this up.

Found the song. It's generic crap, but still better than the Hot Sauce snippet.

Won't load. Lol. Does anyone recognise the male artist in the 5 seconds that do play?

It would be kind of hilarious if Kylie bartending for Madonna was part of some Absolut campaign since Madonna refused to drink her cocktail.

Not really, I'm just kidding. It would be kind of insane to announce a tour on a monday morning.

They have added ANOTHER hour to the Absolut countdown. Thisnis the second time that I've noticed. Maybe this is the tour announcement after all and the hint is how Madonna takes her sweet time to get on stage.

I swear Hot Sauce sounds like

Wasn't it reported to the police? And wouldn't that be a crime if it turned out to be a publicity stunt?

Me lo diste duro, corazón. I actually really like the flamenco guitar, but I'm not sure it's on the album version. Cute bop, though.

Do you think Madonna can beat Olivia Rodrigo's third week? I didn't expect Olivia to pull such massive numbers

I think Danceteria would have a better chance of becoming a mini-viral moment for Madonna, especially if they took all that footage and edited it into a stand-alone video for the song. The bathroom scene is what I'm seeing on instagram today from magazines etc. talking about the film.

Why isn't the solo version of BYL on streaming yet?

Is her dress in the bathroom scene a nod to Ray of Light? My favorite scene, btw, Cumberbatch breaking into a dance is soooo cute AND hot. I just wish they'd take all the raw footage and edit a stand alone video for Danceteria.

Danceteria is kind of her doing Veni Vidi Vici again, except much better this time.

BYL I don't mind so much, but Love Sensation is almost ruined by how nasal and robotic she sounds. And it had the unintented effect of making her sound 90. I was worried for a minute the entire album would sound like that but she sounds great on One Step Away
