Even though it reached #2 in the USA and 4 in the UK, One of Madonna's most underrated 80's single's: "Causing A Commotion" is 30 years old today. Wow. 30 YEARS OLD!

As most Madonna fans know, "Everybody" was the first single that sent her on an astonishing journey and kickstarted her career into orbit. She is now the most influential female artist in music history! This video incapsulated her youthful looks. So babyfaced and fresh. Wonderful!

i really feel sad for her daughter Lourdes, who has to deal with a younger guy obsessed mom-diva

On august the 29th 1987, Madonna played to what it is still considered one of (if not) the biggest paying concert by a solo artist with a record of 120,000 concert goers.

OMG, SPILL THAT TEA, PAT....especially the BIB.

"BC: Madonna is consistently attacked as a non-artist, someone who has somehow skated by for 35 years on sex and hype. How do you react when people scoff at her musicality, who don't see her as an artist?

PL: It pisses me off, to be honest. The people that do get credited as being real artists often times are just “cool” and that gets interpreted as art. And these days, there are way too many talent-show winners, and they get called artists because they have some crazy-good voice. I have issues with these things, but I won’t go into it because I’ll probably have my house burned down by the people that make Auto-Tune. I can assure the world listening and looking at Madonna that they don’t have any reason to ever defend her or feel insecure about it and all I can say is I’ve worked with a lot of people — I’ve worked with a lot of people — and ... hard to be any better or more artistic than her.

There’s people with a more controlled voice — the word “better” is not fair, because how can you have a better voice than the voice that sang “Like a Prayer”? You just go through the list of singer-songwriters through the years — Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, none of these people were “singers” But these are the ones that the most art came from. I think her lyrics were taken for granted all those years ago; you look at the individual lines and this is what people need to think about now, those statements she made all those years ago. I’m certain she’s still doing it.

My knee-jerk is to defend her always, but then I have the demos where she sang a song, having written it 15 minutes before, and it was a #1 record and remains valid 30 years later, who’s gonna tell me that’s not a real artist?"

Music is her best album

[Nancy.]

Music is a brilliant album and is my second favourite of the 00's.

Love the video's and imagery.

taylor can only be glad she got big after mdna was released because her career would've dissolved had it been released after

[RileyH]

Has she released anything good this decade?

[iRyan]

I wasn't crazy about her last two albums but I'm still perched as I've been stanning for her early stuff lately

except the last 3 albums (ignoring Celebration)

[Littlegreen]

I really did think Rebel Heart was her last full studio album, so this is a huge shock/relief!

Ready for whatever she does next.

Yes, while RH isn't my favourite album, some of the lyrics in those tracks sounded like she was ready to quit making music and retire, but i'm glad that's not the case. I can't wait to see what she brings out of the bag for M14.

[LemonJam]

Thank you for warning us.

Anyway,

Now that Madonna has moved to Portugal, she'll be able to soak up their culture and it will reflect in the music. This is obviously in the very early stages so I doubt she's even thought about producers etc. I think we're looking at the final quarter of 2018 at the very earliest.
