The Breast 6,387 Posted Thursday at 09:41 AM Share Posted Thursday at 09:41 AM Listened to COADF twice yesterday cause I was going to buy it and it's way more fun than CII Create a new persona 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladle Ghoulash 51,961 Posted Thursday at 12:03 PM Share Posted Thursday at 12:03 PM I also honestly think Hung Up is overrated asf. Sorry, Get Together, Future Lovers, and Isaac clear. We have forgotten our public MANNERS 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROL, LAP, Music, AL, and Erotica clear I mean, I kinda agree but can you blame her for trying to find a safe place after AL backlash? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not comparing tour or music videos… Also, CII has a very strong message - and more profound to me than the one from COADF 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziggy 13,960 Posted Thursday at 01:03 PM Share Posted Thursday at 01:03 PM (edited) It really depends on what you want out of an album. COADF has more genuine HITS, but I think CII has more confessions, more to say, and flows throughout better (it wasn’t really aiming for hits ala Hung Up imo). Personally, I like CII as an album more but if I want a quick hit song to listen to it’s COADF any day. Really just depends on what the vibe is for my dance electronic music hankering on a given day Edited Thursday at 01:04 PM by Ziggy 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you compare a single album to a tour, videos, era, etc.? COADF was dropped when we got full pop eras that’s just not the case anymore. I think the CII film clears a lot of COADF or at least stacks up to it. as for message…what is the message of confessions I compared to II? One of the album’s biggest critiques is its lack of heartfelt confessions which is what makes II stronger in that regard imo. COADF is a great and safe dance pop album loaded with hits but it’s also a compilation of songs she’d been working on in different places so she could fulfill her Warners contract. Gotta be honest here, CII has way more to say 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also CII is deeper thematically and more experimental - I loooove that about it! So I voted for CII! What kind of experimentation do you think happens on C2?

Like specifically Betrayal - amazing mix of jazz and that sample of a classical piano piece One Step Away - adds tropical pop which is very new for Madonna School - very interesting experimentation with voice, really creative and unusual track with its own mood Everything - aggressive song with rave music like quality - Madonna is new to rave culture Song with Stromae - partially in French! Plus, it’s a successful mix of trip hop (which Madonna tried in early 90’s) with the modern sound. To me, those are more creatively made songs than most songs on COADF 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
imogen2133 536 Posted Thursday at 01:24 PM Share Posted Thursday at 01:24 PM Still much prefer the original COADF, the tracks stand out more individually than Confessions II and I prefer the lyrics as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
