news.scotsman.com/entertainment.cfm?id=2264502005It is not allowed to play Madonna's number one single "Frozen" in Belgium anymore. ;D Yeah, Madonna is ripping off poor little Belgian Songwriters. I think I love her more with every day.  Just embarrassing for her, she could pay this man, that would have been honest and fair. And she has enough money, she can afford it.

What REALLY pisses me off even more is, that she denies ever living here (Belgium), tho she has lived here for a while, when she did backing vocals for a band. There is proof of that. But Madonna would not want the world to know that she ever lived in a tiny country like 'Belgium', especially not now since there is talk about 'ripping' off some poor Belgian songwriter.  Irony is, that I didn't mind 'Frozen'... quite liked it actually, as in a 'ok pop tune but never would buy it'. lol. I first was a bit skeptic about it, but I heard the song of Salvatore and it SO sounds like 'Frozen'. That's undeniable! |

I heard she lived in the north of France in that period (end 70's), not in Belgium self.
But who cares, I really don't believe this at all.

yeah, she never really lived in belgium. Close to, but not in.
I don't think it's plagiarism. It sounds alike, but I don't think it really is, and I don't think she'll pay. Kinda crazy, though.
I always liked Frozen. I still do. Ray of Light is the woman's best album since forever.

Well, I never heard the original version, but for me it is a proof that she lost at court. She can afford the best lawyers and if she loses this shows, that there is some truth in the story. You can't judge someone like Madonna without a reason.  That's impossible, because she has so much power. And spacedog: I agree with everything you said.  |

Well, I heard on the radio she lived here.  Doesn't really matter that much... just found it stupid. I so agree with you, Spacedog. Madonna owns half of the music business. She can do whatever she wants. She hires the popular dj's and artists of the moment and she 'makes' an album. She is a business woman on the first place and knows how to work the masses. She doesn't pay when she parked wrongly, I certainly do not think she's gonna pay some 'nobody' somewhere in a lil none important country as Belgium. I don't give a flying fuck if she copied that song or not. Hell, Madonna uses SO many tunes/samples of other artists it's insane. That's how things work in this world. People with power and money can do anything. I'm gonna leave this thread now... Need to do some work for school gaaaahdamnit...  Reason for Editting: oepsie |

I always thought something fishy was going on when i heard a Madonna song that i actually liked... This explains a lot. Funny how just when you think you couldn't possibly dislike a celebrity anymore than you already do that they somehow always seem to find a way of coming across as an even greater arsehole. So not only is she a worryingly masculine-looking cult-loving-brainwasher, she's also a thief? That's one classy lady.  |
