Can Madonna make a comeback?

Let’s get one thing clear. I am a massive fan of Madge, although I know she’s gone off the tracks occasionally in recent years, but haven’t we all?
Let’s not forget Madonna has been pumping out hits since 1983 when she released Holiday and had several smashes only a few years ago with Hung Up and 4 Minutes.
Not bad going for a woman in her 50s, who has helped shape music culture with massive hits over the decades like Vogue, Like A Virgin, Cherish, Express Yourself, Ray of Light and a string of other smashes.
In fact Wikipedia places the Material Girl at number 4 in the biggest-selling artists of all time with more than 300 million singles and records sold.

This year Madonna intends making a comeback and from what I’ve read she is serious about getting back on the radio and dancefloors. It seems she will be ditching the leotards and her flirtation with hip hop and going back to her pop roots, something Madonna specialises in.

She’s also enlisted the help of legendary producer William Orbit who was behind the success of her Grammy Award-winning album Ray of Light in the ’90s.

Rumoured song titles include Turn Up The Radio, Birthday Song, Masterpiece, and of course Gimme All Your Luvin, which was leaked last year.

Madonna sued the person responsible for leaking the track and has since tweaked it to her liking.

Even if you’re not a fan, you have to admit this woman is a survivor and a megastar in the fickle world of pop music, where artists are often lucky to have a two-year career. And you know what, I think she will do it again this year!
