She and her team should be prepping for the video. BRING. IT. ON. Edit: She posted an image on Instagram, of what could be for the video. Perhaps an updated take on the "Take a Bow"/"You'll See" videos storyline.

She's so free with the keys- it's Francis Bacon, not Bacom. The 4M and GMAYL videos were decent enough, but I hope this one takes its place among the true Madonna video classics. Been a while since we've had one of those.

I would be surprised if it didn't at least reach top 50 on the Hot 100…. I would think initial promotion and sales would garner a peak in that range at least! Her secret weapon could be the video. Back in the day she was the mtv music video queen. Nowadays we have music videos on Vevo instantly going viral. Madonna should try to capitalize on Vevo's instant reach by releasing a controversial video. A video going viral would give her a high hot 100 peak.

It doesn't have to be necessarily controversial, though- a striking, provoking, kick-ass video will do just fine.

I can't wait for the gifs to surface, especially when they include Gaga, lol. The GMAYL ones with Gaga shooting Madonna were hilarious. And Madonna throwing a baby Gaga off the balcony, lol.

The remastered vocals on the verses of LFL sound SOOOO much better. They're more in the forefront and clearer.

Gotta say that these remastered versions really make these songs pop, her vocals are much, much better. Enjoying all 6 released tracks so far. :)

I'm not hearing any noticeable differences. Mastering is a process that involves the finished version of a song (pre-mastered) that usually brightens it up, highlights certain aspects of it and helps take away any additional muffled quality about the song. If anything, these new mixes should be louder and more prominent than the originals. There wouldn't be anything else additional added to the recordings.

I notice a difference in the sound for some of the tracks. Even in LFL. Good stuff.

Was the "Parental Advisory" label always on the cover art? I think they recently added that too on iTunes. Tracks 4, 6, 10, 11, 12 and 16 also now have little "E's" by them. Maybe it's been like this the whole time but I just noticed. lol.

They did just add those details (along with run times for all tracks unless I overlooked that before); 74:15 total, which makes it her second longest album behind Erotica.

^He was photographed with her when she was recording, but maybe it's a spoken thing. Hey, three featurings out of 19 tracks ain't too bad.
I'm glad I haven't listened to any of the demos.

Remember Mike Tyson has been reinvented as this pop culture oddity, he even has an animated series on Adult Swim. We have no idea what his presence on the track entails. (Eek lol.)

Kind of weird to see now everything leaked. Judging by the running times all the tracks got reworked though.
I'm shocked she included all of Body Shop, Holy Water and S.E.X., unless the vocals were re-recorded, those are nothing more than filler and tour interludes at best.
The title track being the closer is a nice idea, but it does seem most of the Avicii tracks suffered the leaks, especially the ones with "art of freedom" theme.

Just being a stickler; iTunes has it listed as 'HeartBreakCity'
So stoked it made the cut, it's divine as is 'Messiah,' but that's all I listened to of the additional leaks.
