Soma Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 funny, cause the"iconic, ironic" chorus is the part why i am listen to it... There is something about that sound I don't like.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moka Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Iconic is anthemic! Really good song. Usually I don't like rappers but the rap part fits well with the song (and the male voices on the background are gorgeous). "I can't, Icon, two letters apart..." The only thing I'm not really a fan of is the Mike Tyson part... The idea of someone iconic giving a motivational speech is a good idea, but the way he speaks and the sound at the very beginning make it look like it's ironic or making fun of him...

blossom Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Sonically 'Iconic' is exceptional ... so much going on in the production and multi-layered melodies and sounds. A quite amazing achievement all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapertje Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Iconic turns from a mediocre demo to my ultimate favorite of the album!!! And surpassing a lot of Madonna favorites! It gives me so much energy! Epic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRDK Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Tour opener? I was thinking it'd be a great shoe opener myself. I'm kind of thinking its not going to be the Rebel Heart Tour but the Iconic World Tour....and Iconic would be a great opening number! It's one of the album's strongest uptempo tracks and its about empowerment...perfectly in line with the era's overall message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cud Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Love this song - love EVERYTHING so far... MAJORLY IMPRESSED. Probably gonna get a lot of shit for saying this, but does the 'I can, Icon, two letters apart,' remind anyone else of RuPaul's Sissy That Walk - the bit where he goes, 'And if I fly and if I fall, least I can say I gave it all...' *ducks* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alquemist Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Am I missing something or are I can and Icon only one letter apart? Depends on whether you count the space between the two words or not.

Apples388 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 The SuperPop of Rebel Heart. I wouldn't go that far but yes, out of the 9 songs we've had so far, I'd say that "Iconic" as AMAZING as it is, is probably No. 8 or No. 9 for me... This alum is shaping up to be her next Erotica!!

Guest CzarnaWisnia Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Ok after hearing it for the first time yesterday and thinking it was messy, I totally get the song today. It's really great and I think it would be a fantastic idea to use it as a second single. Even though there are many tracks (I heard about 9) that could be great singles, this one should be used because A) it's dynamic and positive B) It has two features, and I guess Nas is popular (I don't know him actually, but I guess he is). It was really brave of Madonna to go solo for her lead single, but there's no shame at all in benefiting from a good feature as a second single.

lrnzi Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 It's one thing to write a song called Iconic and have the history to backup it up, it's quite another for the song to live up to that title and be better than some of her most Iconic songs. It's a triumph in every sense of the word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
