the songs do all blend together but they are 12 seperate tracks. in other words, when the cd plays on my ipod it will be interrupted by a second of silence but when i play it on my stereo there is no interruption. the cd package said "the non stop, all-dance tour de force..." so i assumed it was all one track. i'm so stupid.

oh, and today at 5pm est...

it's like any dance dj set. it's all mixed together but it's also tracked so the end of one track blends with the begining of a new track. it's not like lovesexy.

I think it's the 40 page booklet and special case it comes in. You also get a month membership to ICON.

Sorry, couldn't resist! It is a Madonna thread, after all!

What exactly do ICON members get?

JediMaster said:

I second that question....

crap!! I remember the good old days when you just went to the Wrecka Stoe and picked up the smelly cassette of Like A Prayer and you were done with it!

The new song from Icon is awesome!

It's called Super Pop! It looks like a demo from COADF!

It's fun!

And I got it without being a member of that over priced fan club!

JediMaster said:

i'm glad you picked up on my pun.

Super Pop

If I was an animal I'd be a lion
If I was a car I'd be an Aston Martin
If I was a genius I'd be Isaac Newton
If I was a hero I'd be Martin Luther

CHORUS:
If you want to reach the top (reach the top)
If you do you'll never stop (never stop)
The top

If I was an actor I'd be Marlon Brando (the top)
If I was a painter I'd be Frida Kahlo (the top)
If I was a drink I'd be a lemon drop (the top)
If I was a song I'd be super pop

CHORUS 2x

If I was a star I'd be who I am today
If I was a fighter I'd be Cassius Clay
If I was emotion I would be intense
If I was a man I would be president

I'll be different if I'm the president (2x)

If I was an animal I'd be a dog
If I was a dog I would be a man
If I was a man I'd be the president
If I was the president I'd be different

CHORUS 2x

If you want to reach the top
You would start it but never stop (repeat fade out)

Thou shall not mock the beauty and nobel prize poetry of "I'm stupid"!

i wish i wasn't at work so i could have seen the KoKo thing.

super pop should have been on the record and i love new york should have been burned...i mean, offered as the icon bonus track.

SassyBritches said:

the 1-track version is only at iTunes, so that there are no gaps between the continuous mix. the CD version is a continuous mix but broken into tracks.

Did you all see the Prince-connection in the credits of that webcast?

The lighting was done by Roy (Mister Brenda) Bennett!

SassyBritches said:

there is an ipod version, with each of the tracks isolated with their own unique beginnings and endings. i'm gonna get this one tonight.

Can we please have a new thread in celebration of the album being released? That and this one's WAY too fucking long.

ok so lets get it straight...there is an ipod version that is one track, an ipod version with seperate tracks, an ipod version with seperate tracks each with their own proper beginning and end, a retail version with individual tracks, and a limited edition version in december. am i missing one? dag, how many different formats is madge gonna release this on?

(...on my way to itunes for the non-tracked version...)

SassyBritches said:

thadda boy.

Hung Up #2 on TRL

SassyBritches said:

I never assumed it was one track....that would be terrible if you wanted to skip around.

ehuffnsd said:

WOW

MikeMatronik said:

Apparenly if you buy the upcoming special edition, you can join the club for a month...so does that mean you can legally download the song?

I'm listening to "Push" right now and certaintly not a favorite but I'm glad Madonna did an R&Bish type of song that is a little bit like the stuff she did on "Bedtime Stories". It feels like the cleanest, most full song on the album. I'm digging it.

flame on

I don't like this cd. After all of the hype and praise, I expected maybe too much. The lyrics are horid and It's not a FAST dance cd at all, kinda dull techno. I like just three songs, kinda. I am so diappointed.

jthad1129 said:

I'm not sure that there is a lot of praise for it. I think the general response from fans is "Well, it's not "American Life". So far that is my reaction. I like it but it doesn't hold a candle to most of her dance pop hits. It's not very well written, nor was, in my opinion, the bulk of the supposedly reflective AL.

VinnyM27 said:

Super pop is fast lol... i love it

ehuffnsd said:

So are you an Icon Member? Can I join and get the song after I buy the Deluxe Edition (if I do....) or can I get it elsewhere....you know....

SassyBritches said:

There are four Itunes verisons sold!

THere are the Tracked and Non-Stop that are regular. (2)

Then there are Tracked and Non-Stop Deluxe Verisons...but no bonus songs. You get a digital booklet (whatever that is) and the "Hung Up" video. (2 more)

Have fun but if, and only if, I do buy another verison, it better include a bonus track. I'm leaning toward the Limited Edition box next moth for the membership and all.

So where did everyon buy the album? Did you get goodies? When? Where others buying it?

I got it at Media Play for $8.99, which is crazy becuase they used to overcharge for CDs and most of their DVDs are pretty high in price. No giveaways. I asked the cashier how many she sold...and she was like....well, one! She said it probably had to do with the demographics of the area....very liberal Ann Arbor. Maybe it's mostly college kids who listen to emo along with adults and kids with their various tastes.

For someone not all that impressed with the album, I'm sure obssessed with it!
