Madonna Is Officially Queen of Billboard's Dance Club Songs Chart



Madonna Is Officially Queen of Billboard's Dance Club Songs ChartThe assless chaps, questionable kisses and Great Fall were worth it, guys; Madonna has racked up more number one songs than any other artist on Billboard’s Dance Club Songs chart. *throws glitter in the air and dances around like a “Ray of Light”*
With her latest single “Ghosttown” reaching number one this week, Madonna is now unrivaled in her rule of Dance music, according to Billboard, to which she gave the following exclusive statement. She’s also got more number one singles on a single chart than any other artist in history, including George Strait over on the Hot Country Songs chart.
“Thanks to all my fans on and off the dancefloor,” Madonna said. “I’ll (always) be your partner.”
Madge has 45 hits on the Dance chart, ahead of Beyoncé and Rihanna who each have 22. For a bit of music nerd history, Billboard’s Dance chart debuted in August 1978 and Madonna’s first number one hit was “Holiday/Lucky Star” in September 1983.
“Ghosttown,” from her latest album Rebel Heart, was written by Madge along with Evan Bogart, Sean Douglas and Jason Evigan and it’s just like her, over the top.


“When I write with people, we always try to come up with a theme,” she told Billboard’s Keith Caulfield in December. “So, this one is about the city after Armageddon. The burnt-out city, the crumbling buildings, the smoke that’s still lingering after the fire. There’s only a few people left. How do we pick up the pieces and go on from here?
“Kind of dramatic,” she added with a laugh.
Love or hate Madonna’s antics, the woman put points on the board and you gotta respect the architect.
ps. Also “Vogue” because this is the best live performance of Madonna’s entire career in my opinion.

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 ...
