Lolasmommy Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 Does anyone think Beautiful Game could still be the lead single?

Seems like they tested the waters at met gala and since there was no universal praise, they might have returned to the studio. That’s my suspicion
cosmic_system Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 A 20 seconds snipped of a song at a private party is testing the waters? If that's the case her "team" is really the worst.

That is also possible.
strictmachine Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 I mean, if someone had never heard Like A Prayer in their life and only heard a 20 second snippet from the Met Gala performance do we really think that would give them a sense of what the actual album version sounds like other than the lyrics and the melody? Prolly not, no...so I very highly doubt the Met performance of a 20 second snippet during a highly stylized performance has anything to do with what’s gone on in the studio since.

Yes, also the Met Gala was almost 6 months ago and it happened shortly after she started working in the studio.

LOVE HER but I can barely cope with another song lecturing everyone about being obsessed with fame and money (like she is) on the album, let alone a lead single. She needs to make us dance and feel good, not give us a lecture. Edited October 15, 2018 by Danny Bubbles

From my observation of history , the prealbum song does not match the album sound at all: american pie ----music DAD-----american life hey you-----hard candy I think DAD does sound a lot like the AL album!
Icykiller Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 ^ Agreed. This has been already discussed to death in the forum, but I think DAD was already a demo from the AL sessions that got reworked to fit the movie. Tbh AP also does not sound completely out of place in Music. A bit different (think TAB in Bedtime Stories), but not out of place.
tasteinmen Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 DAD sounds very American Life to me, I associate the production / sounds with the American Life era.
dumitru Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 To me AL is kinda folkish, guitar driven, with a touch of electro , but DAD feels like full on electro magic to my ears. That s how i remeber it . Back to #14, i am still have hopes for at least 5-6 killer songs, as she delievered every time. Many time i was so let down by snippets and got blown away by some of the tracks when the album came in.

stevo208 Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 It's almost 2.months since the VMA's. I really thought that was a start to something happening album wise. 2 months from now it'll almost be Christmas. Not long to wait until 2019, I suppose.

And me she does lots of things randomly these days as oppose to a piled up promo attack.
Maleficent Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 I full believe the major FLOPPAGE from Pop Girls in 2018 is why M pushed Magic to 2019... She probably thought 2018 has bad energy or unfavourable star placements...
sul8323 Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 We need the new Ray of Light demos to get us to 2019. Just saying.

paradise Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 What happened to that documentary about Ray of light that was mentioned months ago?

His distinctive sounds are unmistakable. No it doens’t. AP has a signature Orbit sound of course, but it has nothing to do with Runaway or Amazing. And after Gone it screams bonus track (that what it was). DAD fits like a glow on the album though.

I think American Pie, Amazing, Runaway Lover and Gone are so strongly connected in their production, that they would have make a cohesive E.P. And American Pie never screamed "bonus track". It sold nearly as much copies as the title track. Outside the US it's a regular album track and worldwide it's one of her most successful singles.
