well i can safely say she is one of the few artists of the 20th century that has lived their life to the fullest and reached their potential
funny how she opted to turn down the lifetime achievement award at the risk of being labelled 'old' and 'unfashionable'
but having lasted 20 yrs i guess you have to top your hat off to her, she always had her share of critics in whatever she did: her music, her continuous changing image, the books she writes
there have been many comers, and goers, like debbie gibson, tiffany, and now we have a huge wave of britney, aguilera, jessica simpson and mandy moore. they have all been nothing but try hards; the diet coke of madonna: one calorie, not madonna enough
anyway its the music that matters, she started off all happy and teeny boppy with 'Holiday', 'Lucky Star', 'Material Girl', 'Into The Groove'
and gradually the music became darker and more atmospheric and cerebral with 'Ray Of Light', 'BedTime Story' and 'Erotica'
i guess her key ingredient has always been her ability to write catchy tunes without ever sounding like youre pretending to like it, and also her throaty voice which has been so effective. then again, name another artist who's been so er.. daring in their music videos?
