Italians Do It Better wish Madonna, who is returning to Warner Music after 10 years with Interscope, a happy 63rd and pay tribute with a new covers album.

As mentioned VH1's classic '90s-era documentary series Behind the Music is getting rebooted by streaming service Paramount+ for new episodes. The original series, meanwhile, is getting repurposed as a podcast

You can listen to new single “$ouls in the City (Part 2)“ from A Certain Ratio‘s upcoming ACR:EPR (available on limited edition transparent amber vinyl in the BrooklynVegan shop).

A documentary about the tour, which saw Madonna doing extended runs at intimate venues in various cities, is headed to Paramount+ in October.

“New York, New Music 1980–1986“ features over 350 objects, including video footage, photography, show flyers and more from one of the most vital periods in NYC's music history.

The 2021 Music Icons auction includes Cher's outfit from ”If I Could Turn Back Time” video, over 100 Destiny's Child costumes, one of Madonna's ‘Evita‘ dresses, and lots more.

She also talked about her love of Billie Holiday, saying, ”long live the genius spirit of Billie Holiday that will live on forever through her transcendent work.”

”With a bunch of creative, alien kids in working-class Michigan finding one another and unleashing a catalog of totally amazing tunes, it was the blueprint for radical punk that’s still going strong today. Dope, Hookers and Pavement lets everyone who made the scene state their case and connects the dots,” says Thurston Moore.

The influence of the Cocteau Twins goes well beyond dreampop and shoegaze.
