Very sad news. May he rest in peace.

Madonna has chosen a track that works well for both, totally agree!

Love Sensation is a standout on C2 and both new versions are ace. Love the Kylie ad libs and the new production. My only gripe is I think Kylie’s vocals have been added in and it’d be better if they recorded vocals together. In an ideal world the original Love Sensation would have always featured Kylie and they could have then remixed. It’s bloody brilliant though that they’ve worked together and Madonna has chosen a track that either could have recorded separately. The CD should have been ready this week though for maximum impact!!!

I find it much too similar to Get Naked/ Freakshow from Blackout. The said I loathed 4 minutes when it came out as I found it too derivative of other Timbaland productions but now i think it’s an epic banger.

Not but am pleased others do.

Not sure what the 3 country option is about given they’re not restricted to each store unless they’ve added all 3 by mistake but preordered all 3 from the UK store. Postage was still £4.50 if buying 1 or 3 and they’re only £1.99 each. Love Sensation has grown on me, enjoy it along with the first 4 tracks on Confessions 2 and Bizarre, the rest I don’t rate at all. Pleased Kylie is on this track, wasn’t it rumoured a while ago she’d be on Love Sensation?

Tough…chose HOTN

Just looked it's on 1859 which I'm assuming is Friday and Saturday streams. Bit more than I thought but hopefully it can generate big numbers this coming Christmas time.

Expect it’ll only have a few hundred so far judging by the rest of the album, bar Santa Baby.

I’ve added XMAS to my Kylie Spotify playlist…it’s now on 32,000 saves so it should help generate some streams ho ho ho.

They do seem very comfortable with each other. It’s so nice to see. I was lucky enough to win tickets to Madonna’s fabulous Brixton Music launch gig back in 2000 and Kylie was centre of the front row in the balcony seats where all the celebrities were. There were loads of A listers watching but Kylie had the best seat….theyve known each other a long time.

Can’t see a remix coming but an extended version with a middle 8 or whatever it’s called would be good. The song is excellent but over too quick. It’s moved back into the top 20 on the uk rolling week airplay chart.

Over 1.2 million per day now on YouTube….looks as though an ad is driving up the numbers…be interesting to know what that costs vs the streaming revenue.

Kworb reporting CGYOOMH has achieved over 1 million views on YouTube on the 20th July. Easily its highest ever. Last month it managed its best ever monthly total 15.9 million, July on target to beat that too.

Great to see all the number 1 entries. Think in the uk it’ll hold up ok as there’s good streaming.

RIP dear Bonnie x

One More Time and You Still Get Me High

This song has really grown on me and I’ve hardly listened to it because I’ve been listening to Madonna on a loop. Went back to it yesterday and it’s so well written, love their harmonies.

Thank you

The streams will be much better than Westlife. Today’s midweek report will be enlightening. I didn’t realise there was a pop up shop over the weekend in London. Should have sold a few vinyl there!

Shakira is pre 2000s?

Hopefully a good report in tomorrows midweek update.

Is the 29k pre sale figure mentioned in the Friday chart prediction thread confirmed from a reliable source? If so this is going to be her best week one since Hard Candy (can’t remember what celebration and FEL opened with).

Multiple listens in now! School is very similar to Britney’s Get Naked from Blackout. Madonna at the time said she used to workout to Blackout! Can really hear Daft Punk influences on the One Step Away instrumental and PSBs on the album standout track Bizzare. Love Sensation and Bring Your Love both sound so much better within the album. I see many are loving Danceteria, it’s ok but to me it is a poppier and far less accomplished rehash of Vogue and it sounds like MDNA (which I loved at the time but is not a classic Madonna album sound). Read My Lips is such a dud within the album. I now think IFSF is the best track by far. Sounds even better as the album opener.

Surely well over 1 million overall. I’m actually surprised it’s taken this long to go platinum post 1994….its overall streams are very large, guess they’re spread across many countries.
