This has to be the most cringe worthy remake ever.

Once in a while there was something she recorded that I liked. But then I would recognize it was the music, not her vocal performance that made it interesting. Listening to this, and having respect for the original, I recognize her voice was not so special. Better than whatever is appearing nightly at the Ramada Inn Lounge, but not artistry. Strip away the dance show, the lasers, the smoke effects, and what arguably may be excellent musicians backing her, and what have you got? Eh.

There was a T.V. series on fame. It claimed that fame was a modern phenomenon. Of Madonna it said, she was the first person to be famous for being famous.

Bernie McGuirk,Imus's radio sidekick long ago,used to refer to Madonna as "a walking yeast infection".

Sounds pretty accurate to me.

There was a time when she was almost normal. Then she got very strange.

The gulf between ‘almost normal’ and ‘very strange’ is not exactly a huge chasm in my experience.

And some consider them synonymous.

Her ability to reinvent herself was extraordinary.

I could do without almost all of her music, but there was something I liked about her song "Don't Tell Me."

Yes, a much better version. One of the original. I was just getting ready to post a link to another copy of Don McLean performing American Pie.

She is very talented. Her “Ray of Light” album is a great work of pop music. But she is still a nasty woman who can’t understand normal thinking.

I always admired her talent. I never really cared for her 80s pop but I really enjoyed her music post 80s, especially the 00s. She is very talented and an excellent vocalist. And back in the day... Wow she was hot. She is a nut though. Being on the far end of 50 I would take her up on her 2016 offer though I would lie about voting for that wretched harpie Hellary.

oink oink.
