While we’re working on updating our photo gallery, here are photographs taken at the recording of ABSOLUT MADONNA in Cologne Germany 2003. The audience shots have been taken with a disposable camera, so once again not the best photographs. But then there’s the promotional shot of Madonna with Oliver Geissen to make up for it.…
Madonna’s Madame X concert film is set to arrive on Friday via Paramount+. The documentary was filmed in January 2020 during Madonna’s six-night stand at the Coliseu dos Recreios in Lisbon, Portugal, where she also recorded some of the album. In an exclusive clip from the film, Madonna performs “American Life,” the title track from her 2003…
Madonna – American Life Then A heavy-handed, “wake up sheeple!” political awakening Now A brilliantly odd peek behind fame’s velvet rope Madonna’s ninth album, a dissection of the American dream in light of 9/11 and the buildup to the Iraq war, was hard to love upon its 2003 release. The title track and lead single was hampered by that rap, in…
CREDIT: Warner Music April has been a big month for Madonna fans. The Queen of Pop’s Hard Candy LP recently celebrated its 12th birthday, while American Life turns 17 today (April 21). Both albums have been relegated to the footnotes of M’s holy discography, which is an injustice — particularly in the case of American Life. Squeezed between the mega-successful Music and Confessions On A Dance…
We wrap up our American Life discographies with the last single taken from the album: ‘Love Profusion’. Love Profusion was also used in an Estee Lauder commercial and therefore free samples of the new perfume were given away with the CD singles. Madonna recorded a music video for the track inspired by the Estee Lauder…
One of Madonna’s most memorable songs is without a doubt ‘Nothing Fails’, critics thought it to be a follow-up to the classic ‘Like a Prayer’ because of the fantastic use of the choir. Many fans felt it should’ve been the lead single off of American Life, but Madonna and Warner Music had different ideas. The…
Next up is the discography to the second single taken from Madonna’s American Life album ‘Hollywood’. Madonna performed the track on an extensive promotional tour, European performances included: Absolut Madonna (Germany), Jonathan Ross (U.K.), CD:UK (U.K.), TOTP (U.K.), La Chanson Nr.1 (France). Madonna has yet to perform it live during a (world) tour. A remix…
The first single off of Madonna’s American Life album was the title track. A single with an exceptional video directed by Jonas Akerlund only to be withdrawn moments after its release as Madonna felt it was poor taste due to the ongoing war. A new and not improved “flag” version was released and the general…
Next up in our discography is American Life! The sister to Madonna’s current ‘Madame X’ another collaboration with genius French producer Mirwais. In this discography we have collected 49 different pressings including many cassettes and various rare (promotional) pressings. Check them all out HERE
CULTURE Madonna has compared her new album to one of her most controversial records. During an interview with French LGBTQ magazine Tetu, the legendary singer-songwriter and forever Queen of Pop spoke about her new album Madame X, which is due out 14 June, and made a comparison that may leave fans divided. “In many ways,…
Fifteen years ago today I was queuing outside the studio’s in London waiting to attend the exclusive taping of Madonna at CD:UK. I was told that only 200 people were allowed in, most managed to get tickets and others were simply put on the guestlist. While waiting in the chilly London air, us fans had…
While American Life certainly wasn’t the kiss of death for Madonna, her ninth studio album did end one of the winningest streaks in the history of pop. Although the LP—which was released 15 years ago on April 21, 2003—did debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, it became the lowest-selling studio LP of her career up…
