^ Maybe we'll get a snippet of "Masterpiece"!
It would be weird TUTR was one of the snippets for this week. Obviously it would be nice to hear a verse or something, but I'd rather hear three brand new ones.
-
^ Love it! This would have made a better single cover. I think the other one is a little too racy for a single cover.
-
I feel like if the album leaks it will be the standard version, so there will still surprises to come leading up to the release date.
-
^ Yeah, it does. I love that song.
-
^ My sentiments exactly.

I definitely miss the days of walking into a record store and picking it up off the shelf, buying it, and coming home to listen to it. The last time I did that with a Madonna album was Ray of Light. And it was glorious. But times have changed, and finding a leak and downloading it and listening to it for the first time is still a thrill.
I obviously want it to leak because I want to hear the album and don't want to wait. It's been almost four years since we've had a new Madonna album, after all. I'm surprised most of us aren't more rabid - but you can chalk that up to being disappointed with a lot of her recent music. I think leaking a week before the release date doesn't hurt, and probably helps a little. Leaking three weeks in advance would be a huge problem. They would need to prepared to move up the street date to at least a week earlier.

If this shit goes down, someone better PM me!

What was up with that fat PIG hasbeen Perez getting clips of the album? Wtf. It's not 2007 anymore! Nobody cares about that loser now. Not the best most effective marketing exercise I'd say and it was bad enough she acknowledged him the first time.
Even if I was desperate to hear the new songs (I am of course, but don't want to hear em like that), I'd really begrudge going to that disgusting pervert's site to hear them, even if he had them in full. I don't think I could do that and break my habit of NOT going there anymore. But anyway...
I respect you enormously for this. I actually waited until people linked to other sites before listening to the clips. I refuse to make him money.

Love Spent does sound ROLish LIKE IT OR NOT
I don't think it does, at least from what I heard. Does it sound like Orbit? Yes. Does it sound like something from ROL? Not really. Those songs were either throbbing dance cuts or lush downtempo tracks. And the vocal effect doesn't sound like anything on ROL.
-

I'm really glad that the two Orbit tracks we've heard sound nothing like ROL. I'm eager to hear the rest!
-
You're saying you don't think "Don't Tell Me" was a risky single for mainstream U.S. radio?
-
I'm not saying she doesn't take risks (even "Live to Tell" was kind of a risk), but you can pretty much count how many times Madonna hasn't gone with the most commercial/mainstream songs for the singles on two hands:
Hanky Panky
Justify My Love
Erotica
Bedtime Story
Don't Tell Me
Die Another Day
American Life
And I wouldn't count "Frozen." Aside from the blips and bleeps, it's a totally traditional Madonna pop song.
-
It's kind of odd, but this song is sort of what I was expecting/wanting when I heard that she was working with Timbaland. Reminds me a little of "SexyBack."
-
Yeah, I'd say the full video will be out by the end of next week. Are there any other details aside from "tomorrow"?
-
Seriously my favorite clip so far. Can't wait for the full song! I can't see why this couldn't have been a single. So what if it's not "radio friendly" it's not like the current singles have set the chart on fire with their radio frIendliness.
Yes, but it's obvious they're TRYING. Releasing any of the three leaked tracks we've heard would have been DOA.
-
I just wish she wasn't singing like a little girl robot. Think about how much sexier it would sound if Madonna circa "Rescue Me" was singing this?
-
fun/cool.
-
This is really growing on me. I still don't like the effects on her voice, but it's really pretty and I actually like the lyrics (although I'm guessing it's because they were written by someone else!).
-
Booo. I want to hear something new!
-
No way, neither of these two new songs would make good singles. I can't hear radio being interested in either of them. MAYBE "I'm Addicted" but I'd have to hear the whole thing.
-
The thing I like least is the vocal effects, but hopefully the full version in high quality will make it come together for me. It's certainly not bad.
-
My first reaction is that it's totally underwhelming. Sounds like filler to me. The hook isn't strong and the vocal effects sound unnecessary. Hopefully the full version will have more to it. I dig the direction, but doesn't sound like anything special.
So far (and this is based solely on the clips obviously):
I'm Addicted

Love Spent

Girl Gone Wild

Give Me All Your Luvin'

Oh this BS theory again. Not only does it not make a lick of sense (if she was only interested in making money from performing she couldve never signed a contract with Livenation and just continued performing off her back catalogue in VEGAS like Cher and CELINE), she prett much told us fair and square that music is her first priority and first passion in that interview a few days ago. Just becuz she has stopped caring about flouncing around all over prime time TV doesn't mean she has lost her integrity. Shes got 4 kids now to boot. Lady Gaga can appear on every awful tv show all over the planet because her status and relevance in pop culture is all she cares about. Madonna has grown up. Name another pop star with 4 kids that promotes herself to hell like Rihanna and Lady Gaga do. Even Britney has stopped promoting herself as much now that she has 2 boys.
Theory? It's not really a "theory." She's practically said it in interviews. She needs to pay the bills, and making albums doesn't do that anymore, not just because of the market being what it is, but because SHE doesn't sell very well anymore. She does, however, sell out arenas. And good for her. But the least she can do for her Interscope, who's dumping millions into marketing the album, is make yourself available for a few weeks before locking yourself in a rehearsal studio. I never said she's lost her integrity (I mean, she has, but not for this reason). The argument that she "has kids now" and so she can't make a few TV/radio appearances doesn't hold any water. We're talking about going on tour - which is way more disruptive to family life. What does it have to do with growing up? How is touring more "grown up" than doing press for your album? I don't think she needs to go on American Idol and Dancing with the Stars and every morning show on TV. I do think, however, there's really no reason she couldn't have started the tour one month later and make herself a little more visible leading up to the release. Not to mention, you know we're going to get crap videos, if any at all.

@guyoseary Madonna needs urgent promo for her album fast!!!
Guy Oseary Guy Oseary @guyoseary
@Recylopse she's in full on rehearsals.. a teaser of video coming soon.. and video being edited now.. other things in the works..
They should really know better. Touring doesn't sell albums. She shouldn't start rehearsals until after the album is out. And if that means the dates start later in the year, so be it. It's just poor planning and basically confirms what we already know - she's only interested in making money and the album is simply an excuse to hit the road.
SUPERSTAR

Definite filler. Next!
It's interesting that even the non-WO tracks sound like WO. I still think GMAYL sounds more like WO than Solveig too.
