I "received" a copy of Madonna's newest album HARD CANDY. First I expected to be Madonna revisiting her roots of bubble gum pop, which I thought was kind of cool and a good idea. I contemplated ordering the whole album via iTunes especially since her last album CONFESSIONS ON THE DANCE FLOOR was so frickin' hot (definitely the perfect cardio cd). Luckily it was the last thing I had to do last night so it helped putting me to sleep. Sorry Madge sad but true at least from this blogger.
The leaked version of THE BEAT GOES ON has been redone and some of it is better but some of it sucks too. SPANISH LESSON sounds like Dr. Giggles is laughing freakishly in the background. Some of the songs have a bit of retro-disco ding-dong sound to it with repetitive lyrics. There might be like three songs overall that I like and thats only because 4 MINUTES has grown on me except I want to skip around like Madonna does in the video. You call it whether thats a good thing or not.
I really expected better songs (something different "I'm tired of the same ole' thing" as she originally was quoted in saying on THE BEAT GOES ON) but everyone is entitled to their own opinion. It may be one of those albums that takes a while to grow on you. COTDF definitely didn't need that. I loved it right away.
ADDED LATER:
I forgot to mention that despite not being crazy about the album I think they are all perfect for remixes and that'll be where the fame and and money will be.

i haven't heard the new album, but 4 minutes is growing on me. i'll admit, madonna's newer albums hurt my ears. it's all synthesized and and weird frequencies in her voice.
your typical pop album nowadays. ;)
