This sounds like Pharrell producing The Little Drummer Boy.

I can see that. What's with the pinched vocals?

What's with the track in general?

Pharrell is so boring these days. I hope she will work her magic on the production if he is indeed cranking stuff out for her new album. Because this is really bad...

I was expecting something more uptempo...like Keep it together meets Yummy (from Gwen Stefani).

I suppose hearing the full song in good quality will make a difference, but I can't say I'm holding my breath for this one.

Yeah, DM is saying that's just the intro, and it is just a crap mp3...but I'm with y'all, I wasn't too excited by what I heard.

It's only the intro and it obviously builds throughout. I like her vocals though.

It's a charity single for Live Earth. She's performing at the show in July. End.

There is no release date slated as far as I know. But for her sake it better be right during the Thanksgiving/Christmas season to take advantage of the gift buying season rush. Album sales are disappointing and I don't see her having any big hit singles to push the album in the US so it's all about timing.

I don't think she cares much about the US anymore, though. I'm sure her worldwide sales will be huge.

It's certainly not what I expected, but at least it's not going to be another 'Love Makes The World Go 'Round' or 'History' style debacle. I actually kinda dig the part at the end of the clip.

And while I never expected her to go all hip-hop for the next album, it gives me a little hope that she's gonna bring out a different edge in the producers she's working with.

It sounds appropriate for a charity single,which are never really that interesting anyway lol but I hope she doesn't put this song on the album.I want the album to be fast and uptempo.This song is sappy and boring.

Her album is due in November.In July,she's gonna go back into the studio with Timbaland and Justin to finish up a few tracks that they started.There is a rumor that the album is titled 'Madame' and a few rumored song titles have leaked: "Entertainer" and "Let Me Do It".

hmmm

If Madonna's new album called "Madame" is as shitty as "Hey You" I will be "Ma-Skipping This Album When It Comes Out." (Yes, I can play on her name as well.) lol
