Madonna ft. Justin Timberlake & Timbaland - "4 Minutes"

[Mylo13 💜]

This is probably my favourite Madonna single lol. Super fun song!

[stunnedout]

I loved this at the time and it still sounds fun to me. Haven’t heard it in years before today.

[Ty]

One of the worst pop singles in the 00s.

This was a bop. So much better than that mess "Gimme all your luvin" !!!

[someguy]

Such a great song. Probably will go down as the last huge hit of Madonna's career.

Still great, probably my favourite Madonna song that isn't Vogue.

for the 2008 Sticky & Sweet Tour, Madonna mashed up "Vogue" with this song's instrumental.

The horns on this song are absolutely perfect.

This is kind of jam, but really all it reminds me of is how much of a snake Justin and Madonna were. Justin, after throwing Janet under the bus post superbowl, goes to collab with her musical rival? Bad. Madonna has already been talking shit about Janet too at this point.

And Britney was at the height of her mental breakdown so these two go and collab like "hey look at us". Glad it flopped.

[Positive Tension]

I loved it when it was released, but the song was very much of its time, so it doesn't sound as great today. It was definitely a smart move for her to partner with Justin though.

Bit of an overreaction on this part
Pretty sure Madonna was still on good terms with Britney and joined her on the Sticky & Sweet Tour for a performance of I think Human Nature
Also this didn't flop at all, it was largely successful worldwide and even did super well in the US peaking at #3 and being like #23 on the year end chart
Also this was released in March of 2008, Britney was working on recovering from 2007 at this point and in the middle of recording the Circus album and her documentary at the time, so this wasn't during the height of her mental breakdown but more so during the aftermath recovery period.

Anyways, this song was very of its time and honestly lacks any charm for me now tbh, hell Hard Candy, a weak album on release, aged poorly as a whole

Even if I think Justin’s participation in this was intentional, forget about the Britney connection, the Janet part still stands.

I don’t remember this doing well, Atleast not when the general public. do we know it’s peak on radio?

I believe it peaked at #5 on Pop radio
The Janet part I agree with though, never said anything of it for a reason

Just was negating the whole thing about Britney

It peaked at #3 on the Hot 100.

according to wiki it debuted at 68 on airplay and went to 3 with sales.

I’m wondering what it’s airplay peak was, on radio. 68?

[Positive Tension]

It's been so long, but I think it peaked around #5 at CHR and had over 60 million AI at its peak- it was a good-sized hit all around.

[Deleted]

If this was released today it would have been called 3 minutes or maybe 2 minutes and 59 seconds

[SPRΞΞ]

It wasn’t a flop at all.

[Deleted]

This was a great jam but I actually have grown to like "Miles Away" more than this from Hard Candy.
