Celeb News: Attitude: Girl Gone Wild SHOULDA been HUGE

Quote:

-Girl Gone Wild is Madonna to down to a tee. It bares all the hallmarks of a Madge classic...

-The moment she begins to recite the prayer at the beginning, the track screams early ’90s Madonna... Musically, it’s one of her finest moments since Confessions of a Dancefloor – but for those that feel it lacks a little, try the Justin Cognito Remix.

-Make no mistake though, this is an absolute smash in its original form. I defy even the song’s biggest critic to hear Girl Gone Wild in a club after several gins, and not feel the need to throw caution (and dignity) to the wind and start dancing.

-...the critics of Girl Gone Wild really need to take a seat and let the light in...

-Madonna is a good Catholic girl who decided she no longer wanted to play by anyone’s rules but her own – it’s how she managed to become the most recognizable musical icon in the world. If anyone is entitled to sing lyrics like these, it’s her.

And then they say misogyny and ageism were the main factors why it didn't smash

One of her best songs ever. It's annoying how everyone ignores the fact that radio will not play women over 35 no matter how good the song they rather play 2 year old overplayed songs so then the fatties hear say flop flop but radio likes to play the year or 2 post crap over and over just because of her age but whatevs we get her albums and all her tours on DVD

Miracle Whip

Absolutely NOT

It's EASILY one of her worst songs, generic garbage that deserved to flop

Kayzan

This song is FIRE! It really reminds me Confessions.

The Original High

Yaaasss. I wanted GGW to smash and a killer vid for Gang Bang

Bruss

This song made me a full blown Madonna stan until she started acting messy towards gaga and i personally shredded my stan card but i still bop to the song

AMENHOOKER

If a hotter, younger star - like Rihanna - were to release this, it would be #1 for 6 weeks.

It only flopped because radio doesn't play women over 35

Lifeline

Yessssssssssss

still using it

YourMadGesty

Meh.

It had too much going against it. Horrible rehashed lyrics, out dated subpar version of Hung Up production and a mediocre video.

I'll let good sis attitude refute

Quote:

When Girl Gone Wild was released back in 2012, much of the criticism aimed at the track focused on the fact Madonna is no longer a girl, but a grown-ass woman. Pushing the misogyny aside, if you place the track in the context of her career, the sometimes clichéd lyrics attain an entirely new meaning.

+ Madonna at her 50's is hotter than some of the younger stars

Miracle Whip

Girl Gone Wild would of flopped even if Katy or Rih released it because it's a bad song, Love Spent should of been a single and should of smashed

Pierrot

I liked the song a lot more after watching the video, but that opinion is dead wrong. Unlike her earlier smashes, her vocal delivery in GGW is extremely lazy and halfhearted (besides the prayer).

BadHabits

That video for GGW was everything and I'm surprised it wasn't a huge hit, and I'm disappointed we didn't get a video for Gang Bang.

It's a bop but most people don't want to hear Madonna refer to herself as a girl.

But she's still a girl trapped in a MILF's body
