💿 Madonna (1983)
The eternal Queen of Pop is back with a new album cycle. Let's go back to the beginning today as a celebration of her longevity.
"The most controversial thing I ever did was sticking around".

#ToriAmos for novices in a nutshell.
Always an intelligent and creative force for the greater good. I never get tired of saying she's my favorite artist on this planet.
youtu.be/t28KHlJ5g7s?...
Love this album. Garden of Simple is one of my favorite songs
#NowPlaying
🎙️大貫妙子 [Taeko Onuki]
💿Pure Acoustic (1996) [Reissued 2020]
Most Western audiences restrict themselves to Onuki's infectious songs linked to the so-called City Pop genre
Those are great, but I urge them to dig deeper into her more poetic, introspective works as well.

🎙️Roberta Sá
💿Quando O Canto É Reza (2010)
Roberta's third album is an homage to songwriter Roque Ferreira and to Brazil's rich cultural tapestry.
The superb Trio Madeira Brasil provides their intricate guitar arrangements over some amazing percussion.
#vinyl #MusicSky #BrazilianMusic
Same here. Looks really promising!

🎙️ #ToriAmos
💿Abnormally Attracted To Sin (2009)
The Goddess is on tour, and it's nice to see some tracks from this very underrated album popping up.
'Fire To Your Plain' and 'Give' have been played recently and the magnificent 'Lady In Blue' graced her latest live album
#vinyl #MusicSky
#NowPlaying this one again. One of the best Pop albums of the year, certainly got me shook! Loved when people said she came to take the helm while Carly Rae Jepsen is on maternity leave. Haha
This is a high compliment as far as I'm concerned. #vinyl #MusicSky
#NowPlaying
🎙️Garbage
💿Anthology 1995-2022
Such a satisfying compilation. I revisit it all the time. So nice to have '#1 Crush' mingling with the big girls, where it belongs.
#vinyl #MusicSky
This gem rose above many controversies of its time, eventually being recognized as one of her best works
#NowPlaying
🎙️Madonna
💿Erotica (1992)
I haven't been posting much lately due to a planned low-buy year in music and reduced screen time.
But today will be full of house chores, so let's start things up with this top 3 #Madonna album filled with the finest 90s beats and moods.
#vinyl #MusicSky #マドンナ
One of the most beautiful pieces I've ever read on Tori's creative force. That intro alone is worth millions.
Well done, Sir!
My favorite version
youtu.be/bv3J7tGwZ48?...
Seiko is the ultimate archetype of the Japanese Idol. Everything a beginner/casual listener needs is in this collection!
Her first 22 studio albums and dozens of singles are represented in this box set (1980-1993). The perfect entry point to dip one's toes.
#NowSpinning
🎙️松田聖子 [Seiko Matsuda]
💿Bible -pink & blue- Special Edition (2023)
Seiko-chan has released more than 50 albums! But fear not: this 3-disc selection covers the first half of her catalog. 57 songs encompassing singles, b-sides and essential album tracks. A Bible, indeed!

#NowSpinning
🎙️Kylie Minogue
💿Tension Tour Live (2025)
I'm still playing this one incessantly. A killer setlist with perfect transitions between songs. One of the best catalogs in Pop music.
And the physical release is absolutely stunning!
#vinyl #MusicSky
#NowSpinning
🎙️山本達彦 (Tatsuhiko Yamamoto)
💿Alive And Well (1987)
A lively concert centered on some of his most up-tempo and rock-oriented tracks. Japanese music from the 80s just has a magical, glittering feeling to it, doesn't it?
I never get tired of it.
#vinyl #MusicSky #音楽
The Femme Fatale look from this era is among the most memorable visuals of her career
#NowSpinning
🎙️Kylie Minogue
💿Body Language (2003)
The furthest thing from being 'Fever Part 2', it took me years to properly digest the sound of this record
In retrospect, it was a bold move that still feels unique in her catalog.
'Slow' is, of course, a quintessential Kylie track
#vinyl #MusicSky
Maybe only those who were physically there can grasp the huge commercial success of this Pop record back then.
#NowSpinning
🎙️Kylie Minogue
💿Fever (2001)
I have vivid memories of Kylie becoming one of the biggest Popstars in the world when this album was released
It's always a pleasure to revisit its sweet electropop goodness and massive singles. 'Love At First Sight' is my absolute favorite
#vinyl #MusicSky
#NowPlaying
🎙️今井美樹 (Miki Imai)
💿Smile (2026)
Imai returns with her 21st studio album of new material after eight years, celebrating her 40th anniversary.
The first-press limited edition comes with a full concert from the 2023 tour on Blu-ray disc.
#MusicSky #J-Pop #音楽 #CD #CompactDisc
To be honest, I'm not even familiar with side b because I usually go to 'The Very Best Of', the 'I Wish You Love' collection or the Durban Concert LPs when I want to revisit those songs 😅
#NowSpinning
🎙️Madonna
💿Ray Of Light (1998)
Let's cut to the chase: this is one of the greatest Pop albums of all time. 'Nothing Really Matters' is probably my favorite Madonna track. Its crowning as the lead song on the Celebration tour felt like divine justice.
#vinyl #MusicSky
Tell me about it! We also had Garbage in their heyday, the world shining in full Spicemania, Mariah in her Butterfly/Rainbow Queendom... It was heaven for Pop music lovers!
Back to Come On Over, I think I loved the album even more when I got the OG Country version.
She really was the moment back then!
#NowSpinning
🎙️中森明菜 (Akina Nakamori)
💿Complete Single Collection: The First Ten Years (2009)
Every single and b-side by the queen of tragic love during her iconic imperial phase in the 80s. 4 discs, 56 tracks.
#MusicSky #音楽
This album is both a comeback to her longtime fans and a soft reboot that appeals to a new adult audience of Pop music
#NowSpinning
🎙️Hilary Duff
💿luck... or something (2026)
Duff is almost 40, and this low-key, surprisingly great Pop album is the ideal entry point to a new adult audience who, like myself, won't necessarily backtrack to her early teen music.
A perfectly executed return/rebranding
#vinyl #MusicSky
#NowSpinning
🎙️Tori Amos
💿Strange Little Girls (2001)
Tori is my favorite artist. A legendary singer, songwriter and piano player who is also a master in turning any song into her own thing.
This album of covers is an essential part of her canon, finally on vinyl. Highly recommended
#vinyl #MusicSky
#NowSpinning
🎙️Madonna
💿Bedtime Stories (1994)
Such a good album for laying back and chilling. Love the cool, bass-heavy songs and the overall mood of this record. 'Human Nature' remains one of her most iconic songs.
#vinyl #MusicSky #音楽 #マドンナ
February on #streaming stats.
I finally took a deep dive into Seiko Matsuda's 50+ studio albums!!!
More on her soon #松田聖子
#HilaryDuff did a hell of a career reboot. The album is very good!
The rest is my usual mix of classic Pop, Standards, Brazilian music and Japanese favorites.
#MusicSky #音楽
Artists: Yumi Arai/Matsutoya, Miki Imai, GAMU, Chiharu Matsuyama, Takao Kisugi
The best part of doing a low-buy year in music is finally having the time/urge to revisit and listen to box sets in their entirety. I'm on a vintage Japanese Popular music kick, having a blast with these multi-disc collections.

The 50th Anniversary box set, released in 2022.
In 2022, the 3-disc 50th Anniversary box set would select many tracks from the previous two compilations, add fan favorites and recent material.
In short, the 40th, 45th and 50th anniversary sets offer over 100 unique songs that barely scratch the surface of her 40 studio albums!
Amazing!
Disc 1: Pure Eyes Disc 2: Urban Cowgirl Disc 3: Mystic Journey
Yuming: a living legend still going strong at 72
#NowSpinning
🎙️松任谷由実 (Yumi Matsutoya)
💿ユーミンからの、恋のうた (2018)
[45th Anniversary Best Album]
Her discography is so massive that another 3-disc box set was released with 45 songs that didn't make it to the previous one. Combined, they offer 91 tracks to both diehards and newcomers.
