Madonna Wants Everybody To Come On, Dance, And Sing

1zqykw9ARTIST: Madonna
TITLE: “Celebration”
WEB DEBUT: July 30, 2009


ONE-LISTEN VERDICT: The title track from Madonna’s forthcoming greatest-hits album Celebration leaked today, and the Paul Oakenfold-produced track sounds like it could have been scrounged from the You Can Dance cutting-room floor; Madge is singing about partying and not recognizing clubbing partners while they’re clothed over a brash, synthpop-by-the-numbers beat. Her voice still has that sorta-strangled post-Ray Of Light quality—but I have to say, when she let loose a girlish giggle on the bridge, it just about melted my bad-Neptunes-collab-frozen heart.


WHERE TO FIND IT: YouTube embeds of it are getting dinged faster than you can say “4 Minutes To Save The World,” but this clip of an adorable baby getting into its groove provides a nice little preview:

    Its great. Just a fun, fantastic dance track. Madonna sounds like she is having fun again! The spoken part in the bridge is absolute classic Madonna, the best part of the track. I think this is gonna be a massive worldwide smash. May not play too well on US radio, but US radio sucks.
  • Aside from being a little TOO blatently Oakenfold (and the verses being a little weak), it's great. I suppose we're all ready to forget Hard Candy...

    The production is nothing new and its very Sound Factory/Ibiza in late 90's. But its sounds fun and carefree and its straight to the dancefloor Madonna.....

    so i'm the only one that liked "hard candy"?

    @silkyjumbo: perhaps. but i bet i'm the only one that liked the "hard candy" album by counting crows. i'm going to pay for this revelation, aren't i?
  • @cheesebubble: You are not the only one. That was one of those "right desperate time, right desperate place" albums for me.
