When it started, I literally muttered to myself, "in my head, I play a supercut of us..."

This is fab! I love this sound for her, somewhere between 80s new wave and headlining Lilith Fair 🖤 I'm not expecting a Fiona Apple opus anytime soon, but every project feels like a step closer to a fully realised artist where making hits isn't really the point anymore. Robert Smith on your third album? Where is she going to be in a decade? My only gripe is 'begged' and 'less' almost back to back, both feel like Olivia ballad retreads when a lot of the album has moved beyond that

This is stun It looks like Dave Sitek produced the entire album

Mother subjected me to an arena show but she was worth it. Incredible setlist and still one of the best performers I have ever seen The unreleased music is insane and I need them all now

I really like the concept of a short film as a way to establish the visual world for a project. I can stomach no music videos if artists do things like this instead You didn't like the film? Oops 'Madame X' was everything I had wanted in years, on paper (Mirwais!), but the execution was a chop. This seems like her most realised and listenable project since the first Confessions

So this is the best thing she's done in twenty years, right? Everything sounds and looks fantastic. SHOOK Danceteria

I was there You would think she's one of the biggest in the world after that I felt personally attacked during the deluxe medley + no Unconditional

I saw Addison last night and it was a religious experience Everyone screaming to the Von dutch remix like it was the national anthem has added a decade onto my life

She is 67 years-old. She just did a free set in Times Square for Pride, in an era where we actively reward low-effort promo. She put on a show. And if the spectacle lands, it lands. It did. We survived the days of MDNA and Auto-Tune Baby. Stuart Price's comment likely refers to the studio recordings, and her vocals on these tracks have more clarity than they have in years. Even so, voices change with age. None of her contemporaries have kept pushing their art forward like this at 67, and I will never not commend her for that

Listen twice is not even enough for these 1 minute jingles anymore

Imagine being a 67 year-old woman performing in your vintage leotard at Times Square on the night before your visual album debuts at Tribeca film festival and you have these queens telling you that you're not doing much to sell the album and to stop

Iconic

I'm going against the consensus here and giving this a big yes. It's so joyous and genuinely sounds like some mythical French house 2000s Modjo x Madonna bootleg There's nothing that we cannot do, there's nothing that we cannot do There's nothing that we cannot do, there's nothing that we cannot do

ben oui 💋

make room for me 💋

Can you believe we used to live our lives without SS26? This song is a 10

I’m crying

This one is for the 00s pop girlies

The amount of comments I have seen this week calling Crystal Methyd the new Ginger Minj is going to put me in the ground

I didn't know at the time x forgive me

I did still like but most of my votes really grew on me 🖤

Congrats Assy! It wasn't for me, but I love that something different and unexpected won 🖤 I wasn't sure what to go with after my veto, but glad 'Salary Man' found some alt bloc fans. Oddly much happier finishing just outside the top twenty with a song I was sweating my cheeks off to recently than I was making the top ten with Tiffany Day. 'SAME LA' has to be up there as the most curdled entry of the year Justice for Jump Source btw

You might as well call me a whale because I'm getting that signed film strip need
