Madonna - "Music"

Episode 84,   Nov 08, 2023, 04:00 AM

Do you like to Boogie Woogie? Because your Right Back At Ya! boys are covering the Queen of Pop for the first time, so grab that pink cowboy hat and tiara - and let's get to it! With The Celebration Tour going full throttle now (and yes we will give our thoughts on it!), it feels like the perfect moment to dive into Madonna's 2000 album "Music". Joel and David dive into this monumental album, including the singles and music videos, and relive Madonna's Brixton Academy gig which was impressively instantly live streamed to a global audience on the world wide web! *insert dial-up modem tone* 

The "Music" era was a massive turning point for her Madgesty both creatively and personally. It's a new millennium, new experimental body of work with a new collaborator (Mirwais) and, it also marks Madonna's first album made exclusively in Europe. The avant-garde French house and electronica influences mixed with warm acoustic guitars, acid techno and folk influences brought us big commercial hits like 'Music', 'Don't Tell Me' and 'What It Feels Like For A Girl'; but also wild dance tracks like 'Impressive Instant' and 'Runaway Lover'. Despite the European influences, visually she gave us one of her most memorable signature looks with the camp, country Western aesthetic. There is so much to unpack together!
