jxckk 959 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 the demos were far superior to the versions that appeared on the album, it was a step better than MDNA/Hard Candy however. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenniferella 2,774 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 As much as I love her, no ****ing way it's an underrated album. It goes from quite good to the absolute worst "I have been writing LG5 since I was 13" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pacify Him 9,073 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I've never even seen anyone recommend a song from that album from anyone who loves it lol. I've only seen one person quote a whole verse about bondage lmao. That's how underrated it is I’m getting on your nerves Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Slayne 4,154 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 yes gawd it is SO good but it got pretty good ratings, sold over 1M copies WW, it's her most streamed studio album, and the tour grossed over 150M... so it was fairly successful, considering the leak (it was one of the 3 most ilegally downloaded albums of 2015 where is ha diamond certification?)

Lnds500 194 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I was listening to it yesterday actually. I don't think it has that long-lasting effect some of here other albums have but I like it. It has a lot of good tracks - Some leaks were better than the finished product and shaped the expectations of the public before the public heard the actual tracks. Some were better than others and people were turned off by the changes. - I like the self-references in the album to a degree. Track names, lyrics, a lot of it is derivative directly from her career. But I think it's a bit too far. It's an album in which she keeps congratulating herself and in the end, it sounds redundant - like she put her career in a blender and Rebel Heart came out. - Some tracks simply sound unfinished (Addicted ...why?). - Musically it's "let's see what the kids listen to these days and we'll go from there". A shitload of producers with no particular sound. - The album would have been much better without trash like S.E.X. , Queen, Autotune Baby Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HauntingHollow 4,310 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 please, the songs are bland, even the ones with potential got ruined by cheap lyrics and melodies, her voice sounds really weird, no thanks You can not hide if nobody pays attention to you :* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrawberryBlond 13,282 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I don't think it's under-rated as far as this community's concerned. There have been threads made before about how good an album this is and a lot of GGD members have brought it up as one of her better albums. It also wasn't overly under-rated by the public either. It got decent reviews, sold over 1 million worldwide (which is an achievement these days), the Bitch I'm Madonna video got over 100 million views and has over a million likes (Madonna's biggest Vevo acheivement to date) and the tour sold over 1 million tickets and made just under $170 million worldwide. That was more than than Gaga's Artrave despite AP selling more copies and the tour having cheaper tickets. But yeah, artistically, I don't think it's underrated. There's some good songs on it but a lot of rubbish too. I think it's her best album since American Life (which isn't saying much, though) and isn't as bad as Hard Candy or MDNA but she still has a way to go before she gets back to her heyday. Holy Water is a disgusting abomination, if you pardon the pun, along with the pandering to the youth Bitch I'm Madonna. I despair for any of her young fans listening to this and thinking this is some of her best work. They need to listen to some of her truly underrated work like Bedtime Stories.

It is a finished track though, it's not like the demos. Someone obviously had the good sense to drop it, albeit on the last minute. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
