Music : Madonna’s MDNA – Review

I previewed the cd on itunes….one word generic! the ablum has no common message, the beats are all over the place, the only Madge dance album I ever liked and she actually pulled off was “confessions on the dance floor” and “ray of light”. This album will go down as one of her worst.

PS how can you form an opinion from previews? The songs are much more than the sum of the parts, I bet in five years when lady GaGa forgets about being innovative and rehashes this the fickle gays will eat it up as being groundbreaking

I loved it over all.

1- Girl Gone Bad: Great song, great video – the more I listen to it the more I like it.

2- Gang Bang: My fave of all. It’s one of those songs that make you wanna cringe and feel good while doing it. It’s one of those FUCK YEAH kinda songs!

3- I’m Addicted: Very clubby, very technoish-ish-ish-ish.. Still something you wouldn’t expect Madge to sing to unless it was a remix.

4- Turn Up The Radio: This song made me feel like it was a nice sunny summer day, one of those everything-will-be-alright songs.

5- Give Me All Your Lovin’: The more I listen to it the more I like it. Very 60’s meets modern club music.

6- Some Girls: Loved it! I definitely wanna crank this shit up in my car.

7- Superstar: Ohh la la.. another sunny day campy summer song. I think of all, this is one brought out my gayness the most…

8- I Dont Give A : Not too crazy about Minaj on this one, I think Madonna could’ve left this for herself. Her rap is way better than that of American Life’s btw.

9- I’m A Sinner: I liked the religious references she plays with. Her voice hits notes I usually don’t hear her do, at first I thought they were computer generated but after the 4th time of listening in closer, I know they weren’t.

10- Love Spent: I didn’t really get the different changes this song has but it’s still slowly growing on me. I get the lyrics are very hers though.

11- Masterpiece: This song brings out the romantic side of me (as opposed to the gay side..)

12- Falling Free: For some reason this one makes me feel melancholic. Nice though.

13- Beautiful Killer: A little more Brit-pop sounding. I think it would sound better after a few drinks and a bad lover in mind.

14- I Fucked Up: I get the anger and disappointment in this one, it’s also very Brit-popish.

15- B-Day Song: I love M.I.A. but I don’t know what the fuck she must’ve been thinking on this one. It’s alright..

16- Best Friend: This song sounds a little closer to home, a little more suburban a la Hard Candy.

17- Give Me All Your Lovin’ remix: eh, where’s M.I.A. on this one?…

i actually like it.is very edgy and there is nothing like that out there.i recommend to get a good pair of speakers and go loud so you will get a different perspective of it..

wow, now she changed it to “Girl Gone Bad”?

Seems like she took a little taste of each album and put them on MDNA. Girl gone wild = Sorry…and so forth.. Some of the songs and straight up fillers and some are good and couple are ok…Honestly it feels like a something that was rushed to get out quickly, even though it wasn’t.. I love my Madonna but its getting to the point of ok we’ve heard this already… What I would like to see her put out is something old school sounding circa the self-titled “Madonna” with just enough of a modern twist, and no songs “featuring” some other artist that happen to be hot at the moment just makes it seem like she is trying to hard to connect with that younger audience who likes that artist. Madonna is big enough to carry herself and doesn’t need to “feature” anyone. If the time comes that you aren’t relevant anymore then bow down gracefully and quietly.

Did she pay Dr. Drew for the plug or is he on the payroll at her new record company?

I love the album. The beats are deep and dancey over all. It is one of her best albums to date. I know ppl who went to get the cd in NY and shelves were sold out. The sales ppl said as fast as they replenish it’s gone. Good work Madonna another best seller. Keep us dancing baby.

Ummmmmm Hard Candy and MDNA are possibly her worst albums to date. I love me some madonna but really?? If she can’t do better than she really needs to just stop and keep repeat performing the stuff that was actually good.

She looks incredible!

I judge albums individually and try not to reduce it by comparing it to said artist’s back catalogue. This album really stands out on it’s own. Great production, vulnerable, well sung and catchy (albeit sometimes corny) lyrics.

Stand out tracks:

Girl Gone Wild
I’m Addicted
Turn Up The Radio
I Don’t Give A
Love Spent
Masterpiece
I Fucked Up
Gang Bang

4/5 Stars from me

This album is absolutely amazing, what I was expecting, Madonna showed again, shes the best and better than ever.
Girl Gona Wild video is hot!!!

This cd sucks. Give me Hard Candy, bedtime stories, or early Madonna. The stuff that was fun and funky. This has been done before. I like Girls Gone Wild and I you know up! And some ballads.

And quit comparing the new hit with old stuff..this has a great fresh beat ..Girl Gone Wild..edgy and VERY RELEVANT. Yes turn up the volume…catchy and I see people boopin to it all over the place. Great song by a great lady..new, relevant and fresh. And anyways artists do sound similar time after time, like a trademark, as they are who they are…get it !
