I was ready to kill a bitch if I opened this and it was like "lol jk" but OMFG THIS IS TRUE!!!!

I can't stand James Cordon but I have to admit he has bagged himself a winning sketch in Carpool Karaoke and I just love watching them. I think Madonna will be so fab in this. Surely 'Like a Prayer' and 'Vogue' are a given, fingers crossed 'Ray of Light' is in there as it's such a good driving song.

I was hoping she'd do it to promote a new era so it gets exposure but I'm here for an all time BEST OF greatest hits medley. Cannot wait !!

Posted by: Joe. 17th November 2016, 07:29 AM

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's all I have to say.

Posted by: vibe 17th November 2016, 01:30 PM

I am excited by this I just hope she is on point and not too vulgar.
Please don't wear your grills.

It is a shame this isn't to promote anything but it will publicise her benefit concert that James is hosting

What songs do you think will be sang ? Let's all guess 5

1. Like a prayer
2. Like a virgin
3. Vogue
4. Don't tell me
5. Express yourself

Posted by: liamk97 17th November 2016, 01:53 PM

^ Thankfully there is no sign of those hideous grills in behind the scenes photos.

I saw on a Madonna Tumblr fan page that: "According to fans, Madonna performed Bad Girl, Gambler, Like a Prayer, Holiday & David Bowie’s Let’s Dance at #CarpoolKaraoke."

'Like a Prayer' and 'Holiday' sound a given, a Bowie tribute sounds likely, 'Gambler', maybe at a push, but 'Bad Girl'? I wish!

Posted by: vibe 17th November 2016, 05:17 PM

Bad Girl and Gambler

Haha surely that isn't true , random !!!

Posted by: liamk97 17th November 2016, 05:53 PM

I mean, I'd be over the moon if she actually acknowledged the existence of 'Bad Girl' but there's more chance of her getting another UK #1 than that happening anytime soon.

'Gambler' only seems possible because I keep hearing how it's a fan favourite and this would be a good opportunity to resurrect it.

Posted by: HausofHorrors 17th November 2016, 07:54 PM

Posted by: HausofHorrors 17th November 2016, 07:55 PM

In an IDEAL world for me she'd do:

Vogue
Deeper and Deeper
Like a Prayer
Open Your Heart
Borderline

Posted by: mr_pmt 17th November 2016, 07:58 PM

Hasn't she completely disowned 'Gambler'?

Posted by: liamk97 17th November 2016, 08:22 PM

Perhaps, but Madonna seems to have brought back a fair few songs that previously got the silent treatment recently and I don't think it's completely out of the question for 'Gambler' to make a brief comeback. I'm expecting at least one (semi)obscure song to make an appearance alongside the inevitable.

Posted by: Living4Love 23rd November 2016, 05:34 AM

I wish she could sing songs from American Life album, especially the title track!

Posted by: Qween 23rd November 2016, 09:25 AM

She did tell those fans to f*** off on the MDNA tour (I think) when they requested it? But then she also asked for requests and sang whatever the f*** she wanted ANYWAY. Either way a resurrection of Gambler would be THE GREATEST MOMENT EVER.

Posted by: liamk97 23rd November 2016, 09:53 AM

I can just picture the scenario:

Fans: Gambler! Gambler!
Madonna: What was that? You want to hear Holiday again?

Posted by: Qween 23rd November 2016, 02:32 PM

What was that MOTHERFUCKERS*

Posted by: HausofHorrors 23rd November 2016, 06:00 PM

I've probably heard Gambler like 5 times lmao, am I missing out on much?

Posted by: liamk97 23rd November 2016, 10:33 PM

Oh yes, her favourite term of endearment!


If you want care-free, little bit bonkers, fun pop, I've found it's proved to be a right little bop. Perhaps not a must hear but it always puts a smile on my face.

Posted by: Qween 23rd November 2016, 11:50 PM

Probably not, it's as throwaway as throwaway pop comes. I love it because it's so JOYOUS (yes, there's that word again because IT'S AN ACCURATE DESCRIPTION OF THE SONG) and carefree and harks back to a time when 'simple' pop could still smash.

Posted by: liamk97 26th November 2016, 01:24 PM

It actually does always makes me smile when you use that word.

Posted by: liamk97 3rd December 2016, 02:12 PM

Is there an airdate confirmed yet? I remember it took what seemed forever between Gaga's Carpool being confirmed and actually airing.

Surely it'll be before Christmas, to coincide with the TV premiere of the Rebel Heart Tour?

Posted by: liamk97 3rd December 2016, 02:31 PM

Also, I've just heard that 'Ray of Light' and 'Bitch I'm Madonna' were used for the Carpool Karaoke! I suppose that latter was inevitable but hell to the yeah about 'Ray of Light'!!

Posted by: vibe 4th December 2016, 01:50 PM

American Life
Britneys toxic could feature in this

Posted by: liamk97 4th December 2016, 02:12 PM

Yes I noticed she had performed a cover of https://twitter.com/britneyscheetos/status/804971111066648576 recently. I liked what she did with the song although I think a little bit of work needs to be done with the vocals in parts. There's usually a cover involved on Carpool Karaoke so it could be this, if not a Bowie tribute.

!!

Bitch I'm Madonna and Vogue confirmed

Posted by: vibe 6th December 2016, 06:16 AM

Cool teaser

Posted by: liamk97 7th December 2016, 11:06 PM

I've been waiting for this all day until realising it was called The Late Late Show for a reason...

Posted by: vibe 8th December 2016, 08:09 AM

It is so good !!!

She sang well and danced crazily , she was funny without being cringe.

Vogue
Bitch I'm Madonna
Papa Don't Preach
Don't Cry For Me Argentina
Ray Of Light
Music

My only complaint was that it could have been 5 mins longer

Posted by: Tinasha 8th December 2016, 08:55 AM

She also did Express Yourself ^!

Awh, I loved it! I really feel like it's the first time Madonna has come across as a nice down to earth person instead of a very famous person being interviewed for a while.

Yes at her doing my top 2 Madonna singles too!

Posted by: liamk97 8th December 2016, 11:33 AM

Love! Good line up of songs - still so pleased 'Ray of Light' was included and the 'Don't Cry For Me Argentina' acapella was great - but I'm a tiny bit disappointed there was no rumoured Bowie tribute (although maybe that's a good thing after the pretty dire Prince tribute she did). I agree that she came across fantastically; she got really involved, was funny and she looked so good. Loved the twerking even if the media have jumped on the age-shaming bandwagon. Oh and I usually can't stand James Cordon, but I actually quite liked the banter between the two.

I'd have loved longer too because I was really enjoying it and didn't want it to end, but ~15 minutes seems the maximum for Carpools. It's almost 5 minutes longer than the Britney one.

Posted by: liamk97 8th December 2016, 11:39 AM

Also, how many laws did Madonna exactly break when she was in the car?!

Posted by: vibe 8th December 2016, 01:19 PM

Oops forgot about express yourself

Posted by: Aquamaqueesha 8th December 2016, 01:45 PM

She wouldn't be Madonna if she didn't.

Posted by: HausofBallBalls 8th December 2016, 06:20 PM

That was INCREDIBLE I laughed throughout. My new favourite one!! She is a LIVING LEGEND and I love her so much. Put a humongous smile on my face <3

Posted by: vibe 8th December 2016, 08:36 PM

Surely this deserves more responses and love ?

Posted by: HausofBallBalls 8th December 2016, 08:58 PM

I watched it a second time and loved it even more, lol.

Posted by: mr_pmt 8th December 2016, 09:23 PM

I really enjoyed this! I never knew she actually had a sense of humour.

Posted by: Aquamaqueesha 8th December 2016, 09:44 PM

AND she sounded great doing DCFMA.

Posted by: Jonjo 9th December 2016, 12:56 AM

Really good! Very funny and she was SO desperate to get James to take his shirt off!

Glad we got this because before this, I thought she was mainly just a bitch for the sake of being a bitch. But this really does show a complete different and maybe more honest side to her.

Still despise 'Ray of Light' though. (Sorry, not sorry etc..)

Posted by: liamk97 9th December 2016, 06:13 AM

Kudos to you for being in this forum for so long without me knowing your dislike for 'Ray of Light'.

As for now...

Posted by: HausofBallBalls 9th December 2016, 06:52 AM

Pretty sure the reason RoL did much better in the rate we did recently was because Jonjo didn't vote. In the first one I did in the Pop forum a while ago he gave it a -1 #neverforget

Posted by: Jonjo 10th December 2016, 01:15 AM

#WishICouldForgetThatSong </3

Posted by: Aquamaqueesha 10th December 2016, 01:40 AM

i cant.

Posted by: liamk97 10th December 2016, 01:41 AM

Jonjo needs to see a ray of light.

Posted by: liamk97 10th December 2016, 02:16 PM

Anyone else seen Piers Morgan's petty snipes towards Madonna this week?

Posted by: mr_pmt 10th December 2016, 04:21 PM

He hates her, he's been really venomous about her lots in the past.

Posted by: vibe 10th December 2016, 07:17 PM

Didn't this have an effect on iTunes ?

Posted by: HausofBallBalls 10th December 2016, 07:22 PM

Very minimal unfortunately.

Posted by: Aquamaqueesha 10th December 2016, 07:56 PM

everyone already has them.

Posted by: liamk97 11th December 2016, 12:27 PM

I was aware he's made one or two comments before (which is fair enough, I appreciate people just don't like some people) but he just seems to have been on her back all week with such unnecessary comments and I've come to learn it has indeed been like that in the past. It just seems a bit much for someone who I assume has never met the woman; I just don't understand the reasoning behind being as unpleasant as he has been. Besides, he seems quite the fan of Katie Price who also refuses to grow old '''''gracefully'''''.

Posted by: liamk97 18th December 2016, 02:19 PM

I was hoping to see Madonna appear in the 'All I Want for Christmas is You' special Carpool tbh (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKJExBXRorA).

Posted by: vibe 28th December 2016, 07:53 PM

I'm quite confused as to why this didn't become more viral.
It's so good and so fun yet doesn't have many views when compared to other carpools.

Posted by: liamk97 28th December 2016, 11:18 PM

I wondered the same! It's got 15m views so far yet the Bruno Mars one, which was released like a week after, has double that.

I know it's "uncool" to like Madonna but I would have thought people would be interested in watching, even just to take the piss.

Posted by: HausofBallBalls 29th December 2016, 12:41 AM

It's such a shame My favourite one, but i'm not sure if that's because i'm majorly biased or because it really is that good?

Posted by: liamk97 29th December 2016, 01:01 AM

Even in non-stan mod, it's one of my favourite ones. She's just so natural and up for a laugh; really great to see Madonna like this.

Adele and Chili Peppers are also up there.

Posted by: vibe 29th December 2016, 02:57 PM

It really is one of the best !!!

Posted by: liamk97 7th December 2017, 11:16 PM

Another bump!



One year since we got a Madonna Carpool Karaoke! I remember being really excited for this and I wasn't disappointed. Madonna fully got into the spirit of things, having a blast singing along to her classics and having banter with James Corden. I'm not a James Corden fan at all but I love the Carpool Karaokes and I loved the rapport between him and Madonna.

Posted by: vibe 10th December 2017, 04:26 PM

One of the best carpools !

Posted by: liamk97 15th December 2017, 06:42 AM

Absolutely! Think we need a part 2 soon.

Posted by: Spiceboy 17th December 2017, 11:35 PM

Now I'm a huge Madonna fan, adore her, one of the greatest (if not THE greatest) pop stars of all time. However I really didn't like her carpool karaoke. I found her a bit embarrassing and OTT with the legs and almost climbing out the window... I was cringing.
