Valium Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 I don't think its desperation. I think all of us can relate to situations when you are not your best self and do things because you have to either because of someone else, your expected to... There is a period in all of our lives when things don't go as you hoped, imagines, planned... There is just 10000x more pressure on her with all the contracts, deals and shit. People waiting in the shadows to push her off.. Lyrically she never failed on any album. Hard Candy: 'Devil Couldn't Recognise You', 'Voices', 'She's not me', 'Heartbeat' and 'Miles Away'; MDNA: pretty much all song ('Falling Free' & 'Love Spent' my fave) are great.
Nonoka Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Illuminati is a cool track, like some of the other demos it still needs quite a lot of reworking to make it work IMO, but it's going into the right direction. Oh and I don't believe the rumours that LFL will drop this Monday. What's the point? Radio won't play it in the Christmas week and I believe it would get lost among the excitement for New Years too. I think January makes a lot more sense, maybe not the first days, but drop it in the second or third week and it will receive the desired attention (although promotion is, of course, still the ultimate key).
Pink Matter Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 The Monday rumours cannot be true .. nobody releases new music on Xmas week as it would clearly get overshadowed by Xmas music
Camacho Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 What is the source of these Monday rumors? Which facebook fansite page or loon is making that claim?
Valium Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Im still a little lost as to where she's headed with the album. Its still not making sense to me :/
BallbagsAtDawn Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 What is the source of these Monday rumors? Which facebook fansite page or loon is making that claim? Madonna Revolution
robster Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Monday rumors are ridiculous, the world comes to a practical stand still over the holidays and is indeed overshadowed by Christmas songs on radio. Worst possible time to officially release a new track...
magodonna Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 What is the source of these Monday rumors? Which facebook fansite page or loon is making that claim? https://www.facebook.com/illogicallmusic?fref=nf
robster Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Yeah I agree but you never know. I'm a little skeptical that the single is LFL. I thought Diplo said it was gonna be reggae-esque. Unless he reworked it...but that would ruin LFL's feel completely. Diplo was reffering to Unapologetic Bitch when talking about the reaggae track, which it clearly is. I doubt they'd turn LFL into a reaggae track, most likely they fleshed out the track, improved the somewhat boring verses and the shody structure the song has now. I have complete faith that they turned the song into a really big, festive, massive anthem! Can't wait to hear the final version!!!
Apples388 Posted December 19, 2014 Author Posted December 19, 2014 She's going to Brazil for her Xmas/NY family holiday. Of course nothing will be released on Monday. Some people I swear
Bill Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Today's thoughts and observations as I obsessively listen on repeat: Stunning, award-worthy lyrics. Deeply personal yet perfectly relatable, introspective, retrospective, empowering, and heartbreaking. Everything songs should be. Vocals - some of her best EVER. Crystal clear, strong, emotional, straight from the gut. BORROWED TIME - this song is euphoric. I love how it starts off acoustic with those naked, perfect vocals and explodes into that powerful, pounding chorus followed by the synthy break, but what I love most is it doesn't stay that way, it goes back to just guitar and her voice again, so you pay attention to those beautiful lyrics before building back up again. UGH (I'm not really good at explaining different sounds in songs so bare with me ) REVOLUTION - it's really hard to write a song about a revolution, and CALL it Revolution, and pull it off. But for fuck's sake, she sure did it. I love love love the "ohhh ohhh ohh" after "It's a revolution" and the "HUH!". MY GOD WHAT THIS WOMAN DOES TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!! ILLUMINATI - still kicks ass and I need to hear this in an arena BITCH I'M MADONNA - I get it now. There's not a single song that I don't absolutely adore to pieces. That hasn't happened since... well, that hasn't happened.
Jumpb4uthink Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 If Living For Love drops on Monday, it would be a great opportunity for a massive campaign to promote the single with a four day on top of every hour play rotation on radio. It has been done before and it will lead right into after Christmas. Wishful think on my part but the smart thing to do.
Foxcatcher Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Joan of Arc is so perfect. Absolutely my favourite demo. I feel close to tears all the time. They couldn’t say it to my face... One day I won’t care... But for the moment I’m not there... I’ll just close my eyes, and let you catch me now
PRDK Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 (edited) Doesn't it seem strange that DrownedMadonna who reported on all of these (& more) demos has been very quiet since the leak happened? curious. Edited December 19, 2014 by PRDK
Guest HaveASit Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 moe is online. Give us something PLEASE
Nikki Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 listening to dj dahi now to get an idea of how some of the music may change, and Im liking what I hear. just don't hope all the beautiful pop/rock songs won't turn into diplo dance tracks like UB etc. dahi could really bring in something extra, something soothing yet different. like an updated Orbit
Andra Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 moe is online. Give us something PLEASE He quietly left. We saw you moe!
freddykrueger86 Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Living For Love kinda reminds me of... LOVE IT!
madonnafan126 Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Does anyone else agree that living for love is perfect besides the crow-like sounding versus? It has SO much potential. I just hope she fixes it. It should definitely be the lead single though. My favorite chorus since Music!
Stephen Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Doesn't it seem strange that DrownedMadonna who reported on all of these (& more) demos has been very quiet since the leak happened? curious. cause their shit is straight up getting investigated
Guest Pud Whacker Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 I fucking love Illuminati!!!! Me too!!! It plays over and over in my head!!!!

Didn't Drowned World reported that Living for Love will be the kick off single???

I just hope she fixes it. It should definitely be the lead single though. My favorite chorus since Music! yeah, but she should do a better vocal at the beginning (i guess the crow vocal ur talking about) and add a bit of extra touch here & there to make it even bigger.
Genevieve Vavance Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 I love all the songs except Messiah (don't shoot me) i listen to this album from start to finish
madonnafan126 Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 yeah, but she should do a better vocal at the beginning (i guess the crow vocal ur talking about) and add a bit of extra touch here & there to make it even bigger. Yeah its potential is massive. I could see it being HUGE, and winning grammys+topping charts. It could seriously be huge if it is handled correctly. The beginning vocals really do need to be reworked.. The versus are just too weak right now.
Starman Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Im sure those are not the final vocals/versions
Lucky Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 I have NO DESIRE to listen to anything until I buy it and it's official! This is such messy garbage. I haven't listened and wont!
Guest Borderline Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Ugh... I caved. This woman has always had a hex on me... She could slap all of these songs on a disc as-is and call it her album and I would be thrilled. It's all really great stuff. The fact that there is still more being done to the album just really speaks to her dedication to this project. All of these songs are fun, inspired, poignant and most of all, they are all very Madonna. I feel a bit torn about listening to the demos, but, everyone else was doing it (or some excuse like that so that I can live with myself)... but, regardless - I will buy anything this woman puts out, many times over. I'm so excited to hear and see the art that she wants to put forward and wants us to have. So excited for this album.
