We're all waiting for one thou-saaaaaaaand 🎶

Danceteria is being promoted on Spotify ads when you use the free version. It comes up most frequently when you listen to a Madonna track

HITS reports that Confessions II is still top 30 with 21k units this week, with 13k pure sales and 7k Streaming units. Guys the commercial rebound of this era is bigger than we might think, the hold is comparable to MDNA which sold 21k in its 3rd week To compare Confessions II with her 3 interscope albums in the US: MDNA: 13 weeks on the chart week1: no.1 - 359k week2: no.8 - 48k (-87% from last week) week3: no.18 - 21k (-56%) week4: no.29 - 13k (-38%) Estimated Sales Total: +550k Units Rebel Heart: 11 weeks on chart week1: no.2 - 121k (116k pure, 5k SPS) week2: no.21 - 26k (24k pure, 2k SPS) (-79% from last week) week3: no.34 - 14k (-46%) week4: no.57 - 11k (-21%) Estimated Sales Total: +210k Units Madame X: 2 weeks on chart week1: no.1 - 95k (90k pure, 5k SPS) week2: no.77 - 9.7k (6.7k pure, 3k SPS) (-90% from last week) week3: OUT - 5.5k (-43%) week4: OUT - 3.5k (-36%) Estimated Sales Total: +162k Units CONFESSIONS II: 2 weeks on chart * still charting week1: no.1 - 134k (114k pure, 20k SPS) week2: no.12 - 36.8k (25.1k pure, 11.7k SPS) (-73% from last week) week3: (HDD prediction) no.30: 21.2k (13k pure, 8k SPS) (-42%) week4: if the album decline at 35% similar to her previous albums, it would be around 13k copies, let's hope for a landing inside the top 50 And that's remarkable for an album without a tour being announed (yet) to support it

this edit of Bring Your Love is the official video in my house (guys i'm lowtech don't know how to embed this ****)

Do you think she's satisfied?

Shakira was performing the official world cup song and she's been a FIFA staple since forever, high views are expected BTS's youtube views (and k-pop in general) would always be high, just look at their music video and their fans engagement If anything, Madonna being almost 68, legacy act,generated more buzz than whatever Christian snoozefest Bieber, a contemporary artist, was doing. Like, Madonna's being more contemporary than the contemporaries themselves

My fictional setlist for her Confessions Club World Tour: (i know the tour does not exist yet as of now lol) I Feel So Free Good For The Soul Love Without Words Music (Remix Version similar to Sticky and Sweet Tour) Give It 2 Me (Remix Version) Everything Girl Gone Wild Bizarre Frozen (Club Remix) I Don't Search I Find Get Together School Danceteria Read My Lips Sorry (Club Remix) One Step Away Bring Your Love Love Sensation Future Lovers Vogue (Club Remix) Burning Up (Club Remix) Holiday (Club Remix) My Sins Are My Savior Celebration (Benny Benassi Remix) Like a Prayer (Club Remix) Hung Up If some tracks are shortened and mashed up, it rounds out at about 90 minutes of Dance Club Music Galore How about your dream setlist?

the pre-release streams don't count for the opening week, but the stream during the album opening week of those already released songs will still be counted. Madonna at this point cannot rely on streaming numbers because they would translate to, i'd say, maximum 15k album equivalent units. Pure sales is where the label is focusing on. Releasing tracks ahead of the new album generate buzz and awareness. Album announcement + releasing I Feel So Free = buzz for the core fanbase Bring Your Love = buzz for the general public (mainly thanks to Sabrina) Love Sensation = sustaining the buzz for the general public flow coming from Bring Your Love (notice how radio friendly it is compared to IFSF) Confessions II Film = solidifying the newly captured public and create more high-end buzz and word of mouth, especially when she teases Danceteria, everyone in that pool of new audience is loving it And a lot more that she does on the side with Grindr, Times Square that have varying effects. All of these translate into bigger sales during opening week and perhaps a sustained longevity.

Human Nature keeps gaining daily streaming peak... The way the song went from 20k daily before CII era and now pulling 150k daily This R&B smasha is not well known to the public, but it display a core narrative of her career, hence to fans, we love the song. This surge in gains means that more and more people are interested in her narrative in the industry and her discography as a whole. Oh motha we never would have thought Madonna Spotify on X: ".@Madonna's "Human Nature" earned its biggest streaming day EVER on Spotify with 151,350 streams across two versions combined, up 10%. ALBUM — 103,282 GHV2 — 48,068 (Thursday, June 11, 2026) https://t.co/PC7sjQZiVI" / X

These Gen Z kings reacting to the NON-STOP Mix of Confessions 1 (and loving it and admiring Madonna) really made my day. The way they GAGGED about the vibe switch of the album when they got to Isaac and Push !!!!

Yesss i believe we can guarantee 100k units first week US sales. 150k is much more possible now. She just came off the back end of a massive world tour, reconnecting with her fans after the whole Madame X era kinda alienating everyone. Her back catalogue has seen a resurgence bigger than ever: Like a Prayer going semi-viral every now and then, Material Girls becoming a trend of TikTok, Into The Groove going viral in the UK, The sickick collab bringing more attention to the original Frozen (and now the OG is outstreaming the viral remix), and La Isla Bonita and Hung Up keeping on serving "timeless hits" status. She returned into the lane of dance music, which is where the core fanbase truly stands. Word of mouth from the gays, Collab with Sabrina, the Brat aesthetics will help her tap into the Gen Z gay demographic. Coachella, Confessions II film, Times Square performance, Grindr collab, Seizing the pride month visibility, the Taylor Swift vinyl variants tactics, the whole Bilt collab thing(questionable but at least it gives us another vinyl variant lol), and now the FIFA hype will only help boost it even more. Her reputation has never been better since MDNA. We know she won't get a massive hit at this point, but we can't deny that the rollout has been stellar so far and it feels so much like a full-blown Madonna Era. The album will probably end up selling 300k in the US in the long run and gain a decent cult following. Where's the Confessions II World Tour announcement?

1. Taste 2. My Man on Willpower 3. Manchild 4. Nobody's Son 5. Tears *insert* Slim Pickins (A nice slower-paced break from the first 5 bangers, while continuing the "No man's left for me" theme) 6. When Did You Get Hot 7. Bed Chem 8. House Tour 9. Espresso 10. Juno 11. Go Go Juice *insert* 15 Minutes (if Please Please Please is the album finale, 15 minutes works as the penultimate track, the upbeat nature of the song picks the pace back up from country to Dancy, (it's like one last hurrah) her sentiments on gaining a lot of success from this era and how to deal with it forward feels like something you listen to towards the end of the album. The placement feels more rewarding when we have listened to it from front to back, as if we've been with her through this crazy adventure. 12. Please Please Please 13. Bad Review 14. Don't Smile I tend to rework the tracklist of a lot of albums to have the most pleasant, rewarding listening experience. Lyrical theme and story-wise it doesn't have to follow a chronological order. However, there has to be a sort of emotional arc, an emotional journey that you go on throughout the whole 40-minute setting (a good opener, a good middle, and a good ending). Labels tend to put the singles first in the tracklist to maximize visibility and streaming numbers, completely disregarding the pacing of the album. Short n Sweet suffers a fair bit from this (Sharpest Tool just drags down the pace so bad, and Lie to Girls has no business being there). Man's Best Friend has a better pacing tho.

Short and sweet man's best friend - The perfect album without duds and drags 1. Taste 2. My Man on Willpower 3. Manchild 4. Nobody's Son 5. Tears 6. When Did You Get Hot 7. Bed Chem 8. House Tour 9. Espresso 10. Juno 11. Go Go Juice 12. Please Please Please 13. Bad Review 14. Don't Smile This makes a perfect album, and I adore this sequencing so much (and how the ending of Nobody's Son segways perfectly into Tears.) Taste is a universal opener to Sabrinaverse in general, so I can't picture it otherwise. The next four songs share similar themes of "No good guys left". I put Willpower as track two because i like how the song transitions from Taste. The run from Get Hot? to Juno is the horny section, followed by Go Go Juice and Please Please Please which is Sabrina's heartbreak humor at its finest, on a country music musical landscape. PPP culminates the album into one great finale. Sabrina's slower songs can drag down the album a lot, but the two ballads work as the closer. Bad Reviews continues that country sound in PPP, and Don't Smile makes the perfect ending. In fact, the album can end with PPP, but these 2 songs are like the ending credits. Busy Woman gets an honorable mention, I'd put it either as track 2 after Taste or after Espresso.
