And you can dance, for inspiration



Reasons to be cheerful: it's the end of my first few days back in work after Amsterdam, the Vivien Leigh archive - including her diaries, which I hope are salacious - will go on show at the V&A next year, and it's the Queen's 55th birthday today!

Many happy returns to Madonna Louise Ciccone, Our Glorious Leader, and let us all get Into The Groove...


Thank Disco It's Friday!

  1. Thank disco indeed!

    Happy birthday to the queen of absolutely everything! My love for this woman has been endless for 27 years now! I'm off to put some M goodies on my record player - I think my 12" picture disc of "Causing A Commotion" is a good choice...

    Have a groovy weekend!

    1. It is always good to have a twelve-incher, a weekend, and Madonna to boot... Jx

  2. Quite by chance last night, forgetting that it was Madge's birthday today (it's been a busy week) I made a 12 track compilation of unreleased Madonna songs - a few of which could have been singles, including Across The Sky omitted from the Hard Candy album which is astonishing when it's better than most of the songs that made the album xox

    1. Your "Princess Points" are being rescinded as we speak...

      The Hard Candy album was definitely not a high point in Madge's career, so anything that could lift it out of the doldrums is welcome!

  3. Hard Candy may not have been a high point but it is still a pretty solid album, me thinks. It is however an album she did not co-produce herself and it really shows.

    The unreleased orchestral version of "Voices" is divine - she should have put that version on the album!

    1. I dare say the Glorious One will release a "Director's Cut" of Hard Candy at some stage... Jx
