Not so fast! :roadrunner:

"SUPERSTAR will be new single and will have artcover made by a brazilian chosen in exclusive contest in São Paulo.

Graphic designers, attention! Madonna is eyeing Brazil and will choose a professional to do the cover for her new single, the song SUPERSTAR, to be launched later this year.

It is a partnership between the whisk brand Johnnie Walker to mount a workshop at the Museum of Image and Sound (MIS) in São Paulo for 30 students. At the end of the course, which will be curated by the art director Giovanni Bianco and whose registrations expire on the 19th in the museum's website, each professional will be asked to create a cover.

In December, whenshe brings her new tour to the country, Madonna will choose the work that will be the cover of a limited edition CD. "What attracted me to the project is the opportunity to inspire a generation of Brazilian artists to progress in the creative field," says the singer.

Expect more details soon!"

Is this a Latin America only thing? Would she be doing a promotion with Jonnie Walker when she;s been promoting Smirnoff?

As for a fourth single, unless they come out with a storming remix of any of the tracks that spreads through the clubs, this project is dead. After three flop singles, the media have no interest in this project. She should finish the tour and start work on her next one.

I think she should release 7 more singles even though all will disastrously flop, a couple on the same day, one Lithuania exclusive, then when you think it's over, the final one in 2014. :wow:

Oh definitely. Do the people who want GB just want a great video? Fair enough. I love it myself of course but I don't c it as a single. Then again Gimme All Your Derision was beyond idiotic, though with the Clear Channel promotion who cares

No. I think it had hit potential. Obviously if it were released now it wouldn't do very well as a 4th single, but at least it would be appreciated as a fan favourite. I want remixes and a video. But I guess it won't happen.

I'll never get over the shitness of GMAYL as a lead single. Its almost as embarrassing as American Pie.

Well,

Masterpiece SHOULD have preceded the album. Just 4 the sake of tradition (LTT, DAD).

Yes. Had the movie came out well before the album that would have been good. It really is one of the best songs on the album.

>:( GMAYL is fab and it made it to top 10!

AP was #1 in I-can't-remember-how-many countries single chart and it was one of her monster hit in 00s.

Completely off-topic but

For ten years I've thought she sings "dress and go". Just checked the lyrics online, and feel like a flop fan....

HAHA! That actually makes a little more sense than what she actually sings. And then the next line being an unfinished thought... (I'm gonna kiss ... some part of ...)

I love DAD, but the lyrics in that verse particularly are ... challenging to make sense of. Especially since the rest of it isn't quite so disjointed in terms of the thoughts.

The other day I was even contemplating that "Beautiful Killer" could have been a good first single.

Yes, it's THAT good.

On my MDNA cd in my car, it is the first "single" ;-)

There were some wasted opportunities, in hindsight.

TUTR video is good in theory, but the crowd noise and bad editing kinda kill it for me.

I'm happy with the way this era has shaped up over all though.

I would like to see a video for GB and as a b side, a Love Spent remix.
