I agree. Now that I look back at some Who's That Girl tour videos or pictures, sometimes she really had it VERY poofy as you say. I don't like it either. I think it would mainly happen at the beginning of the concert, right? I didn't mind the movie look for some reason. Did she look cool? Perhaps not, but I guess I took it as the look of the character of the movie. I don't know, in the tour sometimes she had it pretty grandma hair or something like that. I also prefer it straight. Later in the show when her hair was already wet, it looked better to me. Or for example i didn't like her look in this interview. For sure i don't like her hair. But there is something else I can't pinpoint. Had she lost too much weight those days? Or the eyebrows were too thick? I don't know.

I think the eye brows were too thick and too dark...she looks like she capped the space in her teeth..and the hair is very big. Ithe only time I like the puffy hair was in the Open Your Heart video when it was cut shorter and sleek and only the top was wavy.

do you think she'll have some original music penned by her for her movie?

I wish one of her songs would go viral in the same way Fleetwood Mac has lately.

Madonna scored another top 40 hit in Australia thanks to Dua Lipa.

I thought her hair looked very nice in this. I actually like it when her hair has more volume. Very typical of the 80s.

Supernatural is a very silly song about a romance / love affair she has with a ghost. She started composing it during the True Blue era, but completed it during the Like a Prayer era. It’s amusing and catchy, but I can completely see why it didn’t make the cut for the Like a Prayer album. Thematically it didn’t fit in as the rest of the album is mostly serious. It would have stuck out because it is almost juvenile in a sense. That being said, I bought the Cherish single back in ‘89 just so I could have this song. It’s also on the Red Hot + Dance compilation in remixed form. Thanks for mentioning this, as I had never knew it existed. I’ll be sure to add this to my Halloween playlist this year.

Talking about Thriller in another thread had me thinking of Madonna's Halloween song that no one talks about. Supernatural, which has been on Spotify. It's actually a great song and if you really listen to the lyrics it does relate to Halloween. 😁👻🎃 That song is the shit!! "A ghost baby!??" 😂

These days, SPR, no 40-plus females are getting regular radio hits. There was Sia, who was over 40, though she had her solo breakthrough (2014 album) close to 40, so a different story. And even her big mainstream success dried up in the last few years. but who is the current oldest who IS getting regular radio hits? Is it Taylor? I think I’m gonna make my answer Pink who is 41. Her last album was her first one in ages that didn’t have a big hit but walk me home was still a huge hit on Hot ac and got minor pop play. We’ll have to see how her next era does to see if pop is ready to completely let go of her. She had big hits in 2016 & 2017 with just like fire & what about us.

I adore "Supernatural." What a video that would have been.
On a related note- I believe Prince played guitar on the track?

She looks fantastic in her recent photos. Absolutely. I love the whole punk meets superhero rockstar aesthetic of the whole look. I wonder if this is for a magazine spread/profile or something else. The photos of her in the dress a few days ago were really nice too.

I like Christina Aquilera but I was bummed that she replaced the juggernaut that was "Music" at #1 with the weakest single on her debut album.

That 9m figure for "Hung Up" is likely too high. I've seen it even before streaming took off. Maybe 5 million to 6 million tops?

Madonna just posted 3 "Hung Up" videos including the EMA performance, Grammy performance, and the Tracy Young remix video.

This became Madonna's best-selling single ever, moving more than 8.7 million copies worldwide in only seven months. It was a #1 hit in a record 41 countries, including Australia, Canada, France, Germany, and Japan. www.songfacts.com/facts/madonna/hung-up

^That's not an official source, though, correct?. Like, what is the breakdown to total 9 million? In the USA and UK, two of the biggest markets, its sales totaled ~2 million.

I remember I had to get an older friend to buy it for me, as I was only 17. I worked at McDonald's at the time and I remember displaying the book in the drive thru window! lol...and everyone asking about it...and me going "It's the new Madonna book!" Oh, what good times to be a fan!
