beautyiswhereIfoundit Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Having had been able to listen to the album for a little while now, am I the only one who's really picked up on how almost every single song has lyrics containing the words "dark" or "darkness"? 14 of the songs use the word "dark" and 6 other songs allude to the concept of darkness, leaving only 5 tracks who do not mention it whatsoever (but some of those four are certainly "dark sounding" songs or contain dark themes). Maybe it's just me - and it's fair to say that this is just an all around theme for Madonna in her music in general, it's just really never jumped out like this to me in any of her albums before. I made a list below: What do you think? I didn't count the use of "dark" yet, but I noticed "scars" in some lyrics and the idea of fall and be lifted up on LFL being strangely seen live. She says "the end" in some lyrics with more affirmative and opened ways than before. May seem silly specially for those who instantly avoid ideas of conspiracy theories, but that's not my point. I keep hearing the songs and relating one to another and there's a message of fear, I don't Know a stange vibe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Msig Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Only just seen that Veni Vidi Vici (Mix 5) and Autotune Baby (Demo #1) have leaked! That makes a total of 64 demos now I believe... (Including the La Isla Bonita Dubplate) Does anyone know how many are still left to leak? There's still close to 30 unleaked demos, AFAIK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Msig Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Living For Love (Alternate Version) 3:39 (alternate ending) Apart from the track fading a second earlier than the album version (WTF!?), the vocals are louder in this mix. I believe this is the one used in the music video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pud Whacker Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 SORRY BILL, BEAUTIFUL SCARS DEMO IS SHIT. ALBUM VERSION IS DOPE. HOPE U ONE DAY DISCOVER. TILL IT HAPPENS 2 U...No Stephen. They went in after the leak and added unnecessary blips and bleeps. Listen to the demo opening.Perfection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomwiggz Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 The dark concept is indeed interesting. I was recently trying to figure out what nick name Madonna would have for this era. I'm talking about the likes of Dita, Veronica Ellectronica, Esther, M-dolla... And I realized. She has the letter N backwards in her name a lot this era, which in Greek or Russian is a letter E (ee). So therefore, with the N backwards, her name is pronounced as Madonia, which basically means dark Madonna. You could also say Rebel Madonna. That's awesome! Love this sort of stuff!

mnino Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 No Stephen. They went in after the leak and added unnecessary blips and bleeps. Listen to the demo opening. Perfection. I'm with Pud and Bill. Beautiful Scars was perfect without the unnecessary blips and bleeps. It doesn't mean, however, that I don't like the "disco" version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phineaspoe Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I'm with Pud and Bill. Beautiful Scars was perfect without the unnecessary blips and bleeps. It doesn't mean, however, that I don't like the "disco" version. What blips and bleeps? It's called disco and it's fantastic. It makes me want to drink a piña colada in Cancun while the sun sets. The demo is great, too. Edit: oops, I see now you said you didn't like disco. In any case, I don't understand why we need to pit versions against one another. They all come from the same source and have the same essence... to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sul8323 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 (edited) Beautiful scars album was different but after a few listens...I prefer it to the demo. That says a lot because the demo was my second favorite. Second only to Borrowed Time. BT is still my song and will continue to be.

le smoking Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 omg the artwork looks INCREDIBLE!!!! (Except the OCD in me hates how her name is only on the super deluxe cover) We need that new photo in the bottom corner asap!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sul8323 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Does anyone else find it strange that the digipak photo looks incomplete? Those pics are all readily available and why not show the other side? I have doubts of the authenticity. As well....AB and Queen still show up on her websitee. Maybe this is fanmade or an early prototype. Just observing and guessing. Could be wishful thinking about not getting already leaked remixes. Thrilled none the less that we will have the real deal soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
