It’s a very good review!
There is funny/controversial points though:
- He/she is not sure if likes or doesn’t like God control.
- Definitely likes Dark Ballet, future and think that “Killers” is one of her best songs from the last 25 years.
- Says that “I don’t Search” and Extreme Occident are low point.
- Compares Crave to Ariana’s Song and talks good of the multiple styles on it.
There is a statement that I disagree: it is said that she thinks that can talk about the problems of the World based on what she sees from CNN laying on her coach in her Lisbon Mansion...

I love her voice in the beginning of the song.. sounds like her lips/teeth are clenched, like she’s angry...gives the song good emotion
It’s part of the role she’s playing.
There is angry and ira there, passive-aggressiveness vibes!

Get used to it.
i love the album, a million years better than rebel heart, in my opinion. But I don’t think you should be scolded for having an opinion, but unfortunately, on a Madonna forum of all places, you get dragged for having a different opinion than most. Go figure.
Of course you have all the right of a different opinion.
Although, I must confess that impress me. I was wandering today, after first album full listening, if there was a not-happy fan.
IMO the album (deluxe) is perfect! If you consider Ciao Bella then...

It's ok,. I have to listen to it a few more times, again I hated American Life so being that this album seems like a sequel to that turd with the overrated vocoder obsessed Mirwais on board, I honestly didn't expect that much
No HUGE dance anthems, basic lyrics (like AL),vocoder overload, sameness to many of the songs, bizarre political slant (not even sure Madonna knows what she means) just like AL
No wonder it's getting mixed reviews from the critics, this could of been the BIG return to form for her, she was on the right track with RH, which was far superior, those melodies on RH....
Of the songs not released ahead of time, I like God Control, Come Alive and I don't Search I Find the most

We need the video of this beautiful thing now!!!

This should've formed part of the album proper, rather than being tacked on as a bonus track
Totally agree!
Ibiza vibes! This is a hot summer chill hit, ready to go!

I love how we got this super Happy Ending with that song. After all the Anitta meltdowns. If there was ever a lesson to learn...
I was thinking the same.
There was a good Anitta and full album meltdown many weeks ago...

Anybody knows if is there an album for redeem with the tickets for Paris MadameX concerts?
Another question: I have bought mine in amazon and was thinking of buying in apple iTunes, but did not find a way, maybe because I already have Apple Music.

Buy from iTunes, then delete it from your phone/device and then stream the hell out of it from Apple Music.
That way both your purchase and streams count.
If you only purchase, and then listen to that purchased version on your device, only the purchase counts.
What about a downloaded album in Spotify? It does count each play as a stream?
-
It has just been released here!!!
-
At what time is the release in Europe? I’m in Spain and cannot find it in Spotify or ITunes.

What are you talking about? GC is probably one of her best records in a long time.
Totally agree!
its an excellent track, for mi is imposible to give it less than 9/10.

What a pitty the leaking!
Would have preferred an early digital.
we have to work hard on streaming to diminish this.
I have tried, but it’s raining links everywhere in twitter and they are going to other platforms like telegram.
Is there something we can do?

Okay, beware of spoilers, detailed review of God Control:
The track opens with a continuation of the ending of Dark Ballet, you hear M huffing and puffing and breathing, then a solemn piano with M's vocals (she sounds like she has grills in her mouth, but for some reason it fits the tone of the lyrics, as her voice starts to get more and more aggrivated and aggresive as she continues). Talking about the state of the nation and how we need to wake up "When they talk reforms, it makes me laugh. They pretend to help, it makes me laugh." She finishes with "They say that we need love, but we need more then this", piano drops away for a bit, then the choir comes in full blast, repeating the line "We lost God Control". Then the track stops, and these disco tinged violins come in, you hear a few gun shots and bullet shells falling to the floor, a stewardess like vocal comes in saying "This is your wake-up call. I'm like your nightmare. I'm here to start your day!" Full on Disco instrumentation kicks in as M starts to sing "This is your wake-up call". Very catchy melody, with violins warbling, clapping, a fun beat, then comes the wordy rappinghood inspired rap section followed by a whispering M "everybody knows the damn truth, wake up" which goes into frantically warbling violins with a repeated and heavily vocodered Wake Up. Then later the violins drop out as the disco beat continues and she sings a new melody line "It's a weird kind of energy", then back into the vocodered wake-up, back to the wordy rappinghood rap. Then the track starts to build to a crescendo with the violins rising and falling, vocodered warbling "wake up, wake up, wake up" again. Instrumental bit with Mirwais' best take on disco. Then the track drops in energy as she screams in a processed voice "A NEW DEMOCRACY", as the music is low in energy she starts whispering the opening monologue again as the music starts to swell, this time with the Choir in the background, heavy chords slammed on the piano as the track grows and grows, untill only the choir remains repeating "We lost god control" untill they drop out as well and M repeats in a whispered voice "wake up wake up wake up" until it fades out!
Pure art!!!!!
I ask for permission to repeat this gif!
OMG

The drag queens is for God Control, I think. As for the next single, no official word yet
Thanks for the info!
Good to know! God Control seems to be “the hit”!
It will be another intense and thrilling week!

How does it sound? Does she sing the whole song in Portuguese? (I am not listening to anything till the official release)
I tried hard to not listen to the Snippets or audios. Without actively searching, it recently appears to me one link of “Faz Gostoso”, and I did not resist. I am a sinner!
The song is catchy and very fun. I think it works well the Anita feat and it ends up way better than what I expected, and really deserve a video. It has lots of Portuguese, Brazilian funk (from Río) and a touch of samba (drums).
Very funny to see her going to international pop scenario.

Does anyone know for sure which song is the next single? Or which one is the “drag video”?

You have to stream the songs from Madame X on June 14-20 to be counted on first week equivalent album units.
From June 14-20, we'll have to work Hard, stream Madame X a lot, as many as we can, everyday to make Madame X debuts at no.1 on Billboard 200 albums chart and become her 9th no 1 album.
We don't want Bruce Springsteen Western Stars hold off Madame X at no 2, do we?
I will do my best! She deserves it!

Ive known haters who got leaks before real M fans. Isnt that insane? And like you said, some fans want everyone to know that “they” already have a copy.. it’s attention seeking indeed
Anyway, the problem with leaks nowadays is that there’s a thing called Streaming.. so for every leak that’s being shared, she’ll lose on streaming points next week..
I know nothing about sales market and charts, but wouldn’t be of help if they release the digital streaming before a possible album leaking?
Maybe I am delusional, but this way she could get ride of the Bruce close release at least for the streaming quote.
Personally, I haven’t listen to anything apart of the released tracks. I am terrible in finding non official stuffs in the web and really don’t care improving this in my life.

I accept and love the song / video exactly the way it is.
Such a good era!
