Your heart is not open so I must go
The spell has been broken, I loved you so
Freedom comes when you learn to let go
Creation comes when you learn to say no
You were my lesson I had to learn
I was your fortress you had to burn
Pain is a warning that something’s wrong
I pray to God that it won’t be long
Do ya wanna go higher?
On January 1 1993, the Madonna Special #1 comic book was released by Revolutionary Comics.

On December 31 2015, Madonna was featured on the cover of Elle France magazine.
Here’s a snippet of the article inside (translated):
“Morons have always hated her. Or loathed her. For Madonna is not only consumerism. It would be an insult to Madonna fans to speak of her only in terms of figures. Because she was the first to deliver this message to such big crowds, and still does after 30 years: that her femininity is openly in conflict with what religions demand from female individuals, yet her femininity never ceases to be spiritual.”
On December 30 2005, Madonna’s Hung Up entered it’s 7th consecutive week at #1 on Germany’s Top 100 Singles chart. The hit single spent an additional two weeks at #1 before finally sliding to #2 in its 10th week on the chart.
