Official Singles Chart Top 40 on 21/6/2015

Well I juss don't think she's as good as she used to be n we aint all fans on ere either. There's loss of much better singers abahrt who ardly get a look in of er age n all, ere are Natalie Cole, Gladys Knight, Dionne Warwick etc there still abahrt but ardly get played when their albums come ahrt n there much better singers than Madonna n all.

Are you seriously telling me you spell ABOUT as "abahrt", here as "ere". Also JUST has a t in it not "juss". Or is this a joke?...

The thing is with Madonna although she is getting older her original fan base is ageing too and they aren't as in tuned to music as they were before. They will still be listening to the radio as ways to find out about new music and Madonna doesn't get a lot of radio play anymore. In the UK her best bet at radio is radio 2 but ' i'm madonna' isn't really a song that will please her original fan base. They don't want to hear dance records they want another 'like a prayer' or 'holiday.' Going back to a more 80s influence is becoming a trend in pop music so there isn't any reason Madonna couldn't do that, I just don't think she wants to judging the sound of Rebel Heart and if she doesn't want to then she shouldn't, she should do what she wants and doing what you want in music has it's downfalls in that it wont always be a chart success and what fans want to hear. Madonna will know that more than anyone else given the longevity her career has given her.

I do agree with you about the 'age, 56' comment but that is simply because of how long she has been around. In other magazines you see: "Katy Perry, roar singer". Everybody who reads those sort of tabloids know who Madonna is and they know what music she has released, instead commenting about her age reinforces the readers identity as they will most likely be getting older to and it gives them reflection and engages them in the magazine because they think 'gosh Madonna is 56? Well I suppose that's about right I was such and such age myself when Papa Don't Preach was on the radio'. I'm not saying that I agree with it, they could write "Madonna, who recently released her new single B***c I'm Madonna," instead and engage them that isn't what the readers know Madonna of. Katy on the other hand the readers will know her as that roar singer their children are listening to. Sadly, that's just the way things are.

Time isn't everybody's friend, but it doesn't have to be an enemy. Besides I doubt Madonna truly cares about where her singles chart anymore, she knows there is a new generation of artists and listeners and it'll be near impossible for her to tap into them and compete against the likes of Taylor Swift and Demi Lovato, simply because she isn't a relatable figure to that audience. Lets be honest the children wont be admiring someone who reminds them of their Mother.

"Real music?" All music is music, and there is no such thing as alleged "real music."

I think when James says "real music", he is referring to music that isn't considered as "pointless noise"

Yeah iss a shame but you muss admit not er best song.

LOL GAYLE TANKING 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣LOL GAYLE TANKING 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣LOL GAYLE TANKING 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣LOL GAYLE TANKING 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣

For God's sake, learn some basic grammar and spelling before trying to communicate with other human beings. You're an embarrassment. Or an idiot. Possibly both.

Ere are we've got all igh n mighty on ere, gawn sling your ook if you aint able to be polite like wot I am.

Tool.

All you do is insults on ere, is sposed to be abahrt the charts in case you aint eard.

I'm sorry, I don't speak your language. Grow up and use the Queen's English.

Bit rude... I think basic manners, tolerance and kindness are better qualities than basic grammar and spelling, but maybe that's just me...

Hopefully. If we disregard English grammar and spelling, we all just descend into communication by grunts and drooling. In other words, the nonsense this clown had been posting. I realise this person probably thinks he's being clever but it's just tiresome and pathetic.

Well we aint all lille Englanders on ere, ere are if you aint bothered to post abahrt the charts then I aint botherin to reply to them insults either.

Cheers Alev, all e posts are insults nothin abahrt the charts so why is e on ere if e aint interested.

I'm sorry, I don't speak your language. Talk to me when you've learned how to spell.

Yeah well I aint botherin with you either til you learn ow to read. I see all you do is post insults at others n all.

Seems they're not the only one person thinking they're being clever? You're still being rude though. Fact.

Your spelling is appalling. Its tricky to read your sentence. I am bored reading that slang word 'Abahrt'. It is very juvenile. So your point gets lost.

Time to learn some manners on ere then innit, we aint all pubic school. You n PM muss be one n the same then.

Rebel Heart is truly Madonna's best since Ray of Light & COADF and could been a killer "single album", if all those unnecessary featuring artists had been omitted.

There loss of better singers than wot she is.

It's not the song that's the problem, it's the fact it's Madonna. Radio One have now dropped her from the Radio One playlist so you'll only hear her music now if it enters the Top 40. I'm not a great fan of Madonna's but I think it's an absolute disgrace that she's been dropped just because of her age. Of course the BBC will deny it's ageist on their part. I wonder if he were still alive would Michael Jackson be treated the same way?

Yeah well they play er on radio 2 n thass wot I listen to but she juss aint as good as wot she used to be n thass all there is to it.

Totally agree. Ghosttown should have been promoted more. It's a jewel of Adult Contemporary Pop deserving of much more attention than the teenage trash of B**** I'm Madonna.

This stupid and unfounded practice of Ageism also stirs up bitter feelings in me. Don't they know AC artists also sell well, particularly CD and vinyl?
