The Dolls aren't all from Dresden

"It takes a village (to make Village People)"
Two great songs from Madonna and Duffy. Just goes to show that female artists should all stop with one name: Cher, Kylie, Titiyo, etc. But what's the deal with all the "featured" artists? Surely, Pharrell doesn't add anything to Madonna's video, apart from being adorable. In "Four Minutes," poor M had to compete with Justin Timberlake, who succeeded in making her look almost old. She's a good deal more limber here.
