This song is totally unlike her usual stuff, except the tick-tock-tick-tock. Not bad a song

She's trying to get back in the US market, she has been successful elsewhere but the States. Well good luck to her, so far it seems to be working....

Head over here for a full album preview!

At first listen, a couple of standout tracks, Incredible and Devil Wouldn't Recognise You (which has a very strong "Cry me a river" vibe).

Although the album doesn't have as strong a hip hop feel to all the songs as I thought it might have, but it does sound very retro and does remind the listiner of Gwen Stefani and Nelly Furtado. Hope you guys enjoy it. Definitely a grower of an album.

Well now that the album has dropped, Madonna is on the road once again, but this time it is a promo tour which will take her to New York, Paris and London over the next week or so.

Watch the performace of some of her new songs and some classic at Roseland on Wednesday. Next stop, Paris!

Well after reading your review, I can't say that I agree with everything you said. She's not a strong lyricist and don't think that she's ever been or will be, her messages have always been straight forward, and at times simplistic. But I think the the basis of all her songs is pure pop, regardless of the musical direction she takes, but it should be enjoyed both visually and misucally, that's where is excells at.

Listening to the lyrics of "Sorry" and would you think it's lame? What about "Hung Up"? and "I Love New York"? Would you think Confessions is a lame album then when the lyrics and delivery is simple and straight forward?

I don't believe "4 Minutes" is the best song off the album, but that's probabaly a marketing choice. But I do believe that she's done some things, musically, different on this album that she's never done before, especially her part as being Executive Producer only and not being hands-on as she used to be.

I do not believe that this album is on par with American Life either because even as Madonna albums, these are two different beasts. Different points of views, musical arrangements, delivery, everything. No comparisson really.

The closets thing she's ever done which could be comparred with Hard Candy is probably Bedtime Stories, but even that's more R&B than Hip Hop.

I'm not saying I love every track on the album, I do believe there are a few which felt like fillers, but it is a good album, nothing magnificent, but definitely better than American Life.

But that's the thing about a new Madonna album, never the same and makes you use that grey lump 3 feet above your ass.

Maybe it is because she sound more current rather than musically progressive that may be the reason for your review?

Well, as you've said, it is a matter of preference and I do respect yours, I just didn't think the word "lame" was apt.

M did say she prefers the remix versions of her songs, so there may be truths in what you say, but I don't think the mix of Nobody Knows Me works though, I prefer the Re-Invention Tour version.

Give it to me will be the 2nd single and the video has already been shot!
