Forgiving The Material Girl

When George Harrison sang about Living in the Material World, he had no idea that his spiritual longings would soon morph into a lithe, utterly Martha-like, business-brain dancer who would turn music on its head. At first you think punk/pop rebellious flash in the pan, but then she just had hit after hit, kept reinventing herself, became an artist. She wouldn't quit. Only Elvis & the Beatles have had more hits.

I can't hate Madonna. She's done so much for women. I can forgive her for putting fuck-you songs on the P2Ps and yes, I'm now going to forgive her for the pink Nano, just like I forgave hypocritical Bono for his. Hope she make lots of Nanomillions and does more with them than dressing her kids in $1K togs and showing up at Live8.
