Nile Rodgers: 'I don't have any unreleased Madonna songs'

Nile Rodgers has confirmed that he doesn’t have any leftover songs from his session with Madonna in the 1980s.
The Chic guitarist worked with the singer on her classic album Like a Virgin and reminisced about how she was very efficient in the recording studio.

"I don’t have any unreleased Madonna material because Madonna knew exactly what she wanted her album to be when we did Like a Virgin,” Rodgers revealed during his Google+ Hangout with Billboard.
"The only song that I had any input of bringing into the mix was a cover of Rolls Royce’s ballad ‘Love Don’t Live Here Anymore’. That was a final last-minute decision.

"The way I make records, believe it or not, there are not many outtakes in my world."
He added: “As Madonna would say, ‘Time is money and the money is mine’. The tape cost money and things like that, so when we were making records we had to be very budget-conscious.

"The great thing about Chic is that we do it very efficient. Both money and groove-conscious."

The star also premiered his new single ‘Do What You Wanna Do (IMS Anthem)’ during the Google+ Hangout, which will be released on Cr2 Records in the coming months.

Madonna Started Filming The "Bedtime Story" Video on December 5 1994.

The inspiration behind the video. Hello everyone! This month’s music video to be analyzed is the for “Bedtime Story”, While this video is tricky for its various sources of inspiration, it’s one of her best, if not the best, and an underrated one by most fans. I am sure that, after reading all of this, you’ll find yourself more in love with the true artist Madonna really is. Madonna called upon “Rain” director Mark Romanek to do the music video for “Bedtime Story” after she saw what he had done with Nine Inch Nails’ “Closer”. As she always does, she listened to the song over and over again, trying to think of a concept for a video. The theme she held on to for this one was dreams, it’s meaning, concepts, imagery and works based on it. She’s a huge fan of surrealistic art, in which lots of paintings deal about dreaming, or allude to something unfathomable in real life. She held to that and brought that concept to Romanek, that really liked the idea and wanted to add ...

Rolling Stone - June 13, 1991 - Flesh and Fantasy - Big Time Girl Talk with Carrie Fisher

Madonna and I had met many times over the years, but we had never actually had a conversation. It took this interview to bring us together – she as icon, I as inquisitor of icon [after all, I have already distinguished myself as friend of icon, relative of icon and ex-wife of icon]. I had never done an interview before, and I don’t know that I will again. For me, this has all the makings of a waterloo. The first of the two sessions for this interview took place in the restaurant of the Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles. Madonna wore gold lame; I probably wore black. The last session took place in the offices of her manager, Freddy DeMann. Madonna wore a negligee; I probably wore black. I was late for that first meeting because a friend who had AIDS and who was staying with me had suddenly developed a fever. I called Madonna to say I was on my way. “You’re late,” she informed me. I explained about my friend. “Well, okay, that’s a good excuse,” she said. By the time of our fina...
