Quick impressions on first listen of MDNA:
Girl Gone Wild - Don't love the song, but love the video - Dita is back in her best video in ages! 6/10 (video - 9/10)
Gang Bang - I am smiling through this whole song. I need to listen to this again to fully take into everything going on here. It's weird and brilliant. 9/10
I'm Addicted - Love it. Love all the swirly sounds. This is what a dance banger should sound like these days. 10/10
Turn Up The Radio - Reviews keep saying this should be the single if Madonna's people know what they're doing, so I was expecting something more instant. 7/10
Give Me All Your Luvin' - Probably my least my favorite of the lot so far. 5/10
Some Girls - Another track I am not connecting with on first listen. 5/10
Superstar - Oo la la this is super catchy but pretty fluffy. 6/10
I Don't Give A - I like it, just weird and frantic enough for me, and ending is rather epic. 7/10
I Am A Sinner - Love the Ray Of Light guitars, and the shout-outs to all them saints. 8/10
Love Spent - Hold me like you hold your money. Haha. Great lyrics. And banjos rock! 8/10
Masterpiece - It's 90's Madonna ballad that belongs right with the Something To Remember collection. 7/10
Falling Free - This one has a Celtic feel to it. Lovely and moving. Her vocals are clear and heartbreaking. This is the type of music that makes me proud to be a Madonna fan. Perfect closer to album proper. 9/10
Deluxe edition tracks:
Beautiful Killer - Ode to Alain Delon. Actually kind of pedestrian.
I Fucked Up - Painfully honest lyrics. This one should be on album proper. 8/10
B-Day Song - Ok, pretty lame. 3/10
Best Friend - Nope not working for me.
Give Me All Your Luvin' Party Rock Mix - This song is better without the extra stuff. This mix has even more extra stuff on top of Nicky Minaj and MIA. 4/10
Love Spent Acoustic - Should have been even more stripped down. 7/10
