Uh, note to Madonna? It’s not 1986, you’re not Gwen Stefani, and this song … well quite honestly, it sort of sucks – much like your last new single, ‘Give Me All Your Luvin‘. Bad girl! Bad!
This is the lady’s new single, ‘Girl Gone Wild’ (yes, ‘Girl Gone Wild’). Here are some of the lyrics:
“I got that burnin’ hot desire/ And no one can put out my fire/ It’s coming right down through the wire/ Here it comes/ When I hear them 808 drums/ It’s got me singing / Hey, ey, ey, ey/ Like a girl gone wild/ A good girl gone wild/ I’m like, hey, ey, ey, ey/ Like a girl gone wild/ A good girl gone wild … The room is spinning/ It must be the Tanqueray/ I’m about to go astray/ My inhibition’s gone away/ I feel like sinning/ You got me in the zone/ DJ play my favorite song/ Turn me on.”
ZOMG, instant classic, right?
Thing is, Madonna‘s trying way to hard to sexualize herself and sell the package to everyone who doesn’t care anymore. I don’t want all of Madonna’s ‘luvin’, and I’m not excited by the prospect of Madonna equating herself as a ‘girl gone wild’. I also don’t see the appeal of a fifty-some year-old woman singing about how gin’s got her all wacked out on the dance floor. See, a woman (or a man) can be sexy as hell as they age, because age has got nothing to do with confidence, wisdom, magnetism, and all-around appeal. As far as I’m concerned, Madonna’s missed the boat on all of those things except for confidence (and that’s even questionable) for the past decade. Maybe if you’d stop trying so hard, Madge, people might take you more seriously. You’ve been in the business a long, long time. This should be second nature to you by now, girl.
Can we all be in agreement about this? Would that be OK?
this is the worst.
Madonna, along with Britney Spears, need to realize they’re not 21 anymore. This is not how mothers act in public, it’s embarrassing. I get that getting older is difficult, but the harder one tries to stay young the worse of a job one does. Age gracefully, and please don’t pretend to be a sex kitten. It’s a bit sad, ladies.
Granny got wild with her old style.. eep?
