Supersonic 49,376 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 No offense but the production on Ghosttown is basic and the auto-tuned vocals sound cheesy and distract from the entirety of the track. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustAnotherDay 8,402 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 American radio has hated her since American Life, Hung Up is the only solo hit she has had since then. And then she didn't do that much promotion for it. Plus at this point ,simply because who she is, people don't really take her seriously, they just think she is some old has-been trying to cling to her fame. was NickARTPOP Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty3009 232 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Madonna's vocals on her tracks become more grating and auto-tuned with each project. She literally sounds like she gave up trying to lay down a decent vocal and phones it in knowing that it'll all be auto-tuned in the end. I think this is part of why so many of her songs have flopped in the last 7 or 8 years. Her voice just sounds unpleasant. Even artists that don't have great voices are able to make their voice sound decent via more effort and more subtle auto-tune/production techniques. Taylor Swift is one example. She doesn't have a great live voice but is able to sound pretty good in the studio without super obvious auto-tune. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whispering 18,865 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 It was the second single, after a debut single that didn't do well and from an album that wasn't selling well. The song never caught on with streaming or on iTunes. There really was no incentive for radio stations to pick it up of play it much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyx 1,927 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 When I first heard Rebel Heart I instantly loved this song and thought it had the potential to be a big hit for her. Not sure why it wasn't playing on radio Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
froot 659 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 This is beautiful, such a meaningful, like a ROL Madonna, I think the GP wanted something like an old Madonna but they got the llyrics right but not the bass on some songs feel the fever Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What About Us 1,499 Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 I love Ghosttown, but my favorite bops from Rebel Heart are Graffiti Heart, Bitch I'm Madonna, Living For Love and Illuminati. Promise I'll always be there. Promise I'll be the cure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
