LOL WTF!?

You see, this is another reason why I'm a fan of this woman. She has a sense of humor about herself. And it's so cool that she gives props to all the fan-made videos.

On the set of her new video "Give It To Me"

on both accounts. Unlike another artist we know....not naming any names here of course.

Come to think of it, any chance this could be a shot at him? I'm sure she's aware of his campaign to purge Youtube, including fan-made videos featuring his music.

Not that I care about these things,but....the "4 Minutes" video was Number One on MTV's 'TRL' yesterday...

Thanks for posting that!!

Thanks because the D/L link wasn't working for me.

I'll have to spend some time with these before saying anything. This album was always going to be a challenge for me, as I've never been able to get into the sound that she seems to be going after. But there may well be enough of a Madonna twist to it that I'll find at least some of it to my liking.

I think I transcribed some of the lyrics to "Give It To Me" (the first verse,the chorus and the first line of the second verse)....


What are you waiting for?
Nobody's gonna show you how
Why wait for someone else
to do what you can do right now?

Got no boundaries,got no limits
if there's excitement,put me in it
If it's against the law,arrest me
If you can handle it,undress me

When the lights go down and there's no one left
I can go on and on and on

(chorus)
Give It To Me
yeah...no one's gonna show me how
Give It To Me
yeah...no one's gonna stop me now

They say that a good thing never lasts
and that it has to go


GIVE IT TO ME (fan-made video)

When you listen to the clips,you'll see that this isn't really the big R&B/hip-hop album that many fans assumed it would be.This is pure pop/dance.I don't hear too many hip-hop influences on these songs.Even Kanye West's contribution appears on a dance track that sounds like it's from 1983,lol.In fact,if you played me some of these songs without telling me who the producer was,I would think it was Stuart Price or Mirwais.

WTF!


these new snippets!

I love them!

It's madonna from the new album redux!

holy shit! She's not me is the colab Duran Duran never did with prince

SoulAlive said:

the album is so Prince-ly

SOMEONE LEAK THIS MOTHERFUCKER ASAP! I CANNOT WAIT NO MORE! WHOSE CORPORATE COCK DO I HAVE TO SUCK TO GET AN ADVANCE PROMO?

this album is so 80's! I see Prince, Duran Duran, a bit of human league!

And pharrel did a hell of a job!

Spanish lesson is so pathetic! Silly lyrics! Shit! It's so bad, it's good!

"Work!

MikeMatronik said:

Didn't Confessions leak a full two weeks before it was released? I predict this one will leak sometime in the middle of next week.The CD is being released first in Israel next Thursday (April 24),so it'll definitely leak immediately after that.

This album is going to be amazing judging by the clips. Give it to me could be her single of this decade!

MikeMatronik said:

"Beat Goes On" and "Dance 2Night" sound like early-80s R&B...the type of stuff that groups like Shalamar were doing at the time.

"She's Not Me" sounds very Chic-like.




I gotta hand it to him...he did a superb job here.He brought the jams



I agree,this song is crap She really could have done an interesting Latin-flavored dance track,instead she chose to do a silly,gimmicky throwaway

SoulAlive said:

Sooner the better, cuz i'm having a nervous breakdown with this anticipation!

HC is miles bettter than COADF!

What's better is that M really whore her boys. The weakest songs are the Timbaland/danja ones!

SoulAlive said:

it's the jimmy jimmy of this milenium!

I'm so happy that HC isn't a shit-hop crap fest!

Hey Madonna, I'm takin' ya 2 the club...

MikeMatronik said:

"Dance 2Night" should be a future single.

MikeMatronik said:

Gotta disagree with you there It's a solid album that I'll enjoy but I don't think it's better than COADF,not by a long shot.



The Pharrell songs are more challenging and he takes more risks.I heard that the second half of "She's Not Me" goes in a totally different direction...can't wait to see what that's about.

The Timbaland songs are more "safer",more commercial.

Looks like Madonna has found a good balance here.

I heard that Warners wants to release five singles from this album.These are the five that I would pick (if it were up to me):

***"4 Minutes"---this was a good choice for first single,even though there are better songs on the album.

***"Give It To Me"

***"Heartbeat"

***"Miles Away"---a future smash!

***"Dance 2Night"---Yeah I know...two singles with Justin might be overkill,but this is a really good song It reminds me of "Rock Your Body" which I liked.


I wanna see your lists!! Pick the five singles!

HC sounds like the album COADF wanted to be, a full on assault on the dancefloor!.COADF was amazing but for a dance album inspired by music from the 70's. it had a little funk missing. Judging from these clips it could be her best album of the 00's.

So far janet's Discipline whooped Mariah's Lp (which I am very suprised). And I have a feeling Maddy is gonna kick it 2 the curb 2
