ცıɬƈɧ I'm Shooter- indeed. On the whole, the Grammys and acclaim haven't really gone hand in hand, especially in major categories. because there are so many categories/fields, everyone's pretty much been nominated at one time or another.
A top 10 single will be tough at this point- it would have to score big time in sales and streaming.

Im more concerned well her having albums that are well received critically that sell well. The singles chart has become a young person's game and I'm not all that concerned with that. I just want her to put out a great album , If she can sell 500k with a so so album ,she can do even better with great buzz.

I'm more interested in her scoring Top 10 singles than in her Grammy wins, though she should have won best new artist in 1984! Yeah, because Culture Club turned out so much better than her! :kidding:

As she's likely performing "Living For Love," there'd be no need for Nicki Minaj's presence (and it's the kind of song that should stray from a rap tack-on). They can easily move into BIM at the end of LFL, just so that Nicki is out there, which yes, will help with sales. But again, this is a great opportunity...no need for Bit*h, etc., save that for MTV.

Id Die for an Epic B!tch Im Madonna performance with Nicki !! This song screaming to be a single... and to be honest I love it way more than LFL. Im still trying to force feed LFL to myself. I am here for BIM, Illuminati and UB. but i think LFL is more of the "safe" route which is odd Madonna Never goes that route lol

Well, LFL has a great universal message, and that's very Madonna. :)

I personally think UB is the best single choice here. At least for CHR. Ghosttown for Hot AC/AC.

Yeah, because Culture Club turned out so much better than her! :kidding: I meant she was more deserving, not that she needed the Best New Artist Grammy for career longevity. But as candygalore pointed out, that award is the kiss of death. Even not being a critical darling has worked to Madonna's advantage. There's nothing this woman can't turn into a positive!

^With her amount of acclaim, I wouldn't say she's not a critical darling, as the Grammys is not a good barometer of such. :) In any event, even the most acclaimed/revered acts have detractors, of course.
"Living For Love" inches down to No. 29 on this week's Dance/Electronic Songs chart (thanks to its No. 32 entry on Club Songs). In coming weeks, will it outdo its current peak of No. 13?

Unapologetic Bitch is becoming the jam for me now. Hooked. Can feel the Diplo reggae influence. Gotta tell it like it is.

illumanti is certainly a grower for me. All are very good except it's taking me some time to warm up to BIM.

hmv.com presents... Albums Of 2015: #14 MadonnaEvery day during January we’re going to be previewing the albums that are going to be hitting the shelves in 2015. Most will definitely come out, some probably will, and some we really hope finally see the light of day (we’re looking at you Adele…). Today we're anticipating the 13th studio album from Madonna... A Little Background… Ah, Madge. Where do we start? Well, with career sales of over 300 million albums, she hardly needs much of an introduction. Often controversial, always provocative and never boring, Madonna's 30 year stint in the music business has yielded some brilliant albums and you'd have to go all the way back to 1994's Bedtime Stories to find one of her albums that didn't reach No. 1 in the UK Album Chart. Despite this, her last two full-length offerings – 2008's Hard Candy and 2012's MDNA – received a somewhat mixed response from critics and fans, many of whom will be hoping for a return to form with album number 13. Back in February of last year, Madge stated that she had begun work on her next LP, and over the next few months a slew of writers, producers and collaborators were linked with the new album. Then, in December, 13 unfinished demos leaked onto the internet, the result of her laptop being hacked in what the singer described - in characteristically hyperbolic fashion - as “artistic rape”, saying that the leak of her album's new material was “a form of terrorism.” Undeterred, she responded by surprise-releasing 6 of the new tracks in their finished form, stating that the new album would include “a further 13 unreleased tracks.” Obviously we're not condoning or endorsing the hackers' actions here, but the upshot does mean that fans will get a little extra music. Then of course there was the added controversy over the album's artwork – or, more specifically, her tweeting pictures of the likes of Martin Luther King and Bob Marley with their faces trussed up like hers on the cover – leading to a predictable storm among the professionally offended on social media sites like Twitter. What's it called? It's called Rebel Heart. What Will It Sound Like? Madonna has always been a bit of a musical magpie, but the last two albums in particular drew accusations of bandwagonism for a latching on to current musical trends, especially the heavily EDM-influenced sound on MDNA. Where Madge's habit of picking producers du jour have yielded brilliant results in the past, such as her triumphant 1998 collaboration with William Orbit on Ray Of Light, many felt that Madge had lost some of her experimental edge in recent years. However, if the 6 tracks released so far are anything to go by, she's learnt a lesson from this and there's much more variety on offer here, allowing her personality to shine through more than on her last two albums. The Diplo-produced lead-off single 'Living for Love' and the more downbeat, introspective 'Ghost Town' are good examples of the stylistic breadth here, and overall there are house beats, trap beats and acoustic guitars all in the mix. Who's Producing It? Are There Any Big-Name Guests? As well as Diplo, Avicii has also contributed production work on the album, while guests include Alicia Keys - who contributes piano on 'Living for Love'. Nicki Minaj also makes an appearance, lending her rapping skills to 'Bitch, I'm Madonna', while elsewhere there are contributions from producers Dahi and Billboard. Even Kanye West has lent a helping hand on 'Illuminati', which finds Madge dispelling conspiracy theories about secret societies. www.hmv.com/music/hmv-com-presents-albums-of-2015-14-madonna

COUNTDOWN TO HISTORY?: Speaking of Dance Club Songs, Madonna explodes onto the chart at No. 32 with "Living for Love." The lead single from her forthcoming album Rebel Heart (due March 10) marks her first chart appearance since "Turn Up the Radio" became her record-extending 43rd No. 1 in September 2012. If "Living" eventually latches onto No. 1, Madonna will equal one of the most vaunted milestones in Billboard chart history: the Queen of Pop will tie the King of Country, George Strait, for the most No. 1s by any act on a single Billboard chart. Strait boasts 44 No. 1s on Hot Country Songs.Remixes of "Living" from Djemba Djemba, Offer Nissim, Dirty Pop, Thrill and Mike Rizzo have been sent out to club DJs. www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/6443513/robin-schulz-madonna-dance-charts ![8-)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cool.png) Go, Madonna!!

She hasn't missed out on No. 1 on Club Play with a lead single since who knows when. Topping Dance/Electronic Songs would be cool but that probably won't happen.

I just hope LFL gets a HOT 100 entry, even if it enters and peaks at #100!

LOL @ No. 100. That wouldn't add much for her position on the Top Hot 100 Acts list. ![](http://yoursmiles.org/ssmile/fun/s0244.gif)

Well, I wish Hollywood, Nothing Fails, Love profusion, Get together, Miles Away, Girl gone wild, Masterpiece, Turn on the radio had at least made it to #100. She would be ahead of Taylor Swift in the list of female acts with most hot 100 songs :)

Hope this is true :)
MadonnaTribe can share some great news about the Living for Love video, the promotional machine and another very special TV appearance to come… First of all, fasten your seat belts because the shooting for the Living For Love video is taking place today in New York City! And that’s not all, the promotion for the new single and the upcoming album will start as soon as next week! Last but not least, the rumours are true: Madonna will perform at the Brits Awards on February 25th!

I would be surprised if it didn't at least reach top 50 on the Hot 100…. I would think initial promotion and sales would garner a peak in that range at least!
