Gimme, Gimme, Gimme
Camille Paglia expresses with subtlety and detail what I experienced only as a vague discontent: Madonna doesn't quite succeed with her new dance album, "Confessions on a Dance Floor." Indeed, my first thought, before I knew it was Madonna singing but after hearing ABBA's 'Gimme, Gimme, Gimme' in the background, was that whoever was singing 'Hung Up' had to be a major star, in order to afford the astronomical cost of the rights to ABBA's song, but whom among the major stars would be foolish enough to kidnap this song? Can't Madonna afford original material?
I need to listen to the rest of Madonna's album, but I'm in no hurry.
Gimme, gimme, gimme Kylie Minogue!
