Too many "heart" songs. She's not going to include Grafitti Heart AND Revolution maybe one of them but certainly not both. Inside Out is definitely going to make it. Never Let You Go is good but there are stronger songs.

Holy Water and S.E.X. have most likely both been reworked by Blood Diamond/Dahi (see instagram). I'm pretty sure they're going to be included as well. SHE IS NOT GOING TO HAVE AN ALBUM WITH 70% BALLADS!!!

Just because a demo has been recorded as a ballad does not mean it can't be reworked into something uptempo. Wash all over me is a good example of this

But I respect your argument and will wait and see

never let you go is just GREAT!!!!! it needs to be in the final album along with "nothing last forever" and "body shop" (these songs have interesting production...

this album is going to be fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Madge is delivering the goods as she used too! she's back! really back!

PS: it is a pity she will not include two steps behind for it is soo catchy!

It's an interesting outcome of all the leaks, that Madonna's fanbase are now entering into a 'Strictly' or 'X-Factor' style competition, with the contestants being 20+ unfinished tracks and fans of each cheering on their own with a place on the album for the winners. We've been given 6 tracks that convey something of the tone of the album, so we know roughly where she's going, and perhaps in some small ways are part of the making of the album [that's assuming M and / or those close to her have an ear to the ground for feedback]. To that extent, the leaking of all of these demo's may actually turn out to be more a positive thing than would first appear. Very few could afford - or would dare - to engage in such a revolutionary process (that's not suggesting for one minute M has done this on purpose etc) as organically involving the audience in the creative process / development stages and making of the album.

With that in mind, the only tracks I'm backing (i.e. the only ones based on what I've heard so far I think are good enough for a place on a Madonna album) are:

Heartbreak City

Rebel Heart

Wash All Over Me

Addicted (The One That Got Away)

Joan Of Arc

Messiah

Borrowed Time

Inside Out

Iconic

Beautiful Scars

Hold Tight

Never Let You Go

All of which have amazing potential. The rest are just not good enough, but then the bar this time is very very high. Some good ideas, some with amazing sections / parts, but overall, not up to the mark. That said, this will still be one of the best album's Madonna has done so far, and hopefully there's yet more tracks we still no nothing about. Quite an achievement.

The fact that Illuminati was highly transformed in the album version, shows that anything is game.

And for the record, I don't even consider the majority of the demos as ballads.

We only know of 6-7 of the official tracks, and it still doesn't give a good idea of what direction she'll be going in

I could do without Natalia Kills. Her songs seem lazy. Who couldn't have come up with a catchy phrase like "bitch get off my poll"? Nothing original.

There are so many demos with great potential:

Inside Out

Beautiful Scars

Best Night

Hold Tight

Addicted

Heartbreak City

Freedom

Body Shop

Iconic

However! That's just my unprofessional opinion. Plus I have to be respectful to the fact that many people do like Natalia's involvement. And it's also a given that when the full album comes out, all songs will have their place the way Madonna wanted. And I trust the Queen. And I'm sure the final versions of any song we doubt right now will be a good surprise. ♡♡♡♡♡

No! I love Holy Water. It's a must. I like all the demos so I will be happy with the tracklist, but the ones I really want besides Holy Water are Beautiful Scars, Graffiti Heart, Veni Vidi Vici, and Revolution.

Apparently it's another Madonna/Natalia Kills demo. They wrote 8 songs together.

Nothing Lasts Forever

Tragic Girl

S.E.X. (Probably)

Holy Water

Objects

Midnight Shift

Score

Trust No Bitch

Interesting. Nothing Lasts Forever seems so differente from Holy Water!
