 She really is mutton dressed as lamb September 25, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Overall I'm not impressed by this album. She is 50 and this cd is as embarrassing as Prince Charles wearing baseball caps backwards and trying to speak like a rude-boi. She should take a cue from U2 who gave up trying to be whacky after their Zooropa and Pop cds; went back to their roots and quite frankly sounded much better. She can do a brilliant ballard, why doesn't she include some of those and leave the rnb for the hoody wearing teenagers.
 BEST ALBUM OF 2008 September 21, 2008
Im going to keep this short and quick. This album is EXCELLENT!! I listened to it once and thought it was average... but since then, ive listened to it constantly when i drive to work, when im excercising... it's just such a brilliant classy album with music produced by Pharrell & Timbaland.
It also includes guests such as Timberlake, Kanye West, and Pharrell. It's a really good album- there are 12 songs, 10 of which are exceptional!!
It mixes old style Madonna with modern day beats. BUY IT NOW!
 Did she not use to be the definer of music? September 17, 2008

I used to think Madonna was one of the influential musicians out there. I now question if she ever did. This album is bland and follows trends others out there do a lot better. Only problem is they don't get the hyped up media attention our Madge is famous for.
I expected way better than this, I thought we had finally got to see the real Madonna with Ray of Light, but in the end Madonna is a brand that a lot of fans will defend as being beyond criticism, the only true critics are her fans...which i've been for a long time. Maybe one day she'll lose all those insecurities and the rudeness and actually be someone folk can respect...other that a 'brand' you simply buy because its cool to do so or cause everyone else has it. Very poor album, but in Madonna's own words its as great an album as her debut! Really? What album is she listening too!
Try a decent album like Bring Ya to the Brink.
I'd have given it no stars if I could. September 1, 2008

I used to love Maddy, thought 'Like a prayer' was fab and my all time fave was vogue. This was a blatant attempt at her doing young girl pop with artists who should have steered well clear. Madonna has been going for years, with good reason, she is loved by her fans, fair play, but if this is what is passing for music these days, then I'd rather sit in silence.
I have been verbally attacked for my review on here, which is totally unfair, it's only my opinion. Let's be nice to eachother people, no need for it.
She is grim, her tunes are awful, she can't dance, can't sing. That's my opinion and I won't be attacked for it!
Oh look, it seems that there are over 30 people who also gave it a 1 star....hmmmmmm!!!!!
I rest my case!
 Madonna's back. August 6, 2008

I'm not really a fan of Madonna - I like the odd song. I fell in love with '4 Minutes' and decided to get the album. It definitely has a dance/techno feel to it, but don't let that put you off. Here's my mini review of the songs:
1. Candy Shop - Starts off good, but gets very repetitive.
2. 4 Minutes - Fantastic, as most of you know.
3. Give It 2 Me - Brilliant.
4. Heartbeat - Very addictive. I liked it.
5. Miles Away - Funky, and fun throughout.
6. She's Not Me - Upbeat, funky, fresh and a great beat.
7. Incredible - It's... incredible.
8. Beat Goes On - Hm... really good. Kanye West wasn't too bad, but he got a bit repetitive.
9. Dance 2night - Great. A solid beat, with great vocals and lyrics.
10. Spanish Lesson - Very different, but great. Very rhythmic.
11. Devil Wouldn't Recognise You - Great beat, with Madonna sounding great. Lots of variation.
12. Voices - Great end to the album.
Overall, a great return to form from Madonna. This album proves that she's still got some magic left in her. Definitely buy this.
