Daily affirmations of a word mercenary
EW’s Popwatch rounds up what the critics are saying about Madonna’s new album … and it’s mostly positive. Note: “I don’t like cities, but I like New York/Other places make me feel like a dork” are indeed terrible lyrics, but the beats more than compensate. The continuously mixed tracks make it great for walking, working out, and of course (der!) dancing. I’m not a big Madonna fan, but this is definitely my favorite of her albums — better even than Ray of Light, which I really enjoyed mostly thanks to William Orbit’s involvement. Interested? It goes on sale today!

Some reasons why I love Madonna:
1. Her kick ass skull and bones circle bag that she carried in Desperately Seeking Susan. She kept it at a locker at the bus station! Don’t TELL me that she didn’t choose her own wardrobe for that movie.
2. Black fingerless lace gloves, circa 1985.
3. Her hairy armpits in her Playboy debut.
4. Shanghai Surprise.
