I'm liking all the other 5 songs more than this, lol. But I do like it. I really am interested in hearing the demo now.

Living for love??? Rub it in Madge.
Anyways I prefer GMAYL but this is ok. Doubt it's gonna be a huge hit or anything. Kinda generic.

If this were released in 2000/2001, it probably would have been a top hit for her. With all the obstacles now, less likely. But some notable activity would be a nice surprise. :)

Living for love is a rousing od to loving thy self with high energy that climaxes with a chorus of hell yea.
I would prefer Ghosttown as the first single. Best of her ballads up there with Live to Tell. Tugs the heart.

Whether radio latches onto this or not, it's still a great track. Everything I've heard, besides BIM, is truly amazing.

I like it, A LOT more than the MDNA/HArd Candy stuff.

The song is infinitely more interesting than Give me all your luvin (at least it doesn't sound like a Hanna Montana reject). I think radio will give this a try, but i'm not sure if it'll be a fair chance. Crossing my fingers for a top 20 peak (and a decent chart run)

^It all depends if Interscope wants to work it at radio or not.
GMAYL had a radio deal which obviously helped a lot.
This will have a January adds date.

Love this song! Very anthemic, hope it does better than "GMAYL" (which I also liked).

This has grown on me already, very nice, and the "Hideaway" comparisons helped it for me.

^Don't expect anything. Radio programmers are off this week and next. This song kinda slays. If they don't have a radio deal for this song they should get one for Rebel Heart and make this a buzz single. This album is shaping up to be kinda the best thing she's done in a decade even the demos are hot. |

I don't know which version I like better. Both the demo and final version just bring me so much joy. I can't wait for the MNEK version and just a nice big remix package in general.

I haven't listened to the demo, but I love this version (as does my other half).
It's a return to the classic universal, uplifting anthems.

Although it's a great track, the only part that bugs me and sends the song down a notch is that damn 2nd verse. It's so flat and lifeless. But that chorus is heaven.

This is actually such a jam. I wasn't sure when I first heard it but damn, it's a great mix of some of her 90s material and modern production.

www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/6415173/madonna-hot-dance-electronic-songs-chart-rebel-heart?mobile_redirection=falseMadonna Debuts Three Tracks on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs ChartBy Gordon Murray | December 24, 2014 A trio of tracks from her upcoming 'Rebel Heart' album debut days after their arrival. Madonna catapults onto Billboard's Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart with three tracks from her upcoming Rebel Heart album: "Bitch I'm Madonna" (No. 14), "Living for Love" (No. 16) and "Unapologetic Bitch" (No. 26). The songs, available for instant download upon pre-ordering the album (due March 10) or as a la carte purchases, were made available digitally in a surprise move at midnight on Friday (Dec. 19), following massive demo leaks earlier in the week. (An additional 14 demos leaked on Dec. 23.) The songs soar onto the chart, therefore, on the strength of only a partial week of sales and with only small benefits from other metrics (streaming, radio airplay and club play). The cuts mark Madonna's first entries on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs, which premiered on Jan. 26, 2013. "Bitch I'm Madonna," featuring Nicki Minaj, leads with sales of 12,000 downloads, according to Nielsen Music. "Living," the album's first proper single, starts with 10,000 sold and "Unapologetic," 7,000. The tracks begin on Dance/Electronic Digital Songs at Nos. 9, 12 and 14, respectively. (She notches her first top 10 on the list, which launched in January 2010.) Two versions of "Living," the album original and an instrumental, shipped to club DJs on the evening of Dec. 21. Remixes are currently in production and, once approved by Madonna, will be sent out. Madonna leads all acts with 43 Dance Club Songs No. 1s, with her most recent, "Turn Up the Radio," ruling on Sept. 8, 2012. Madonna told Billboard on Dec. 21 that "Living" went through more than 10 incarnations during the recording process, including ones with vocals from British singer MNEK. "There will be remixes with MNEK's voice," she confirmed. As for radio airplay, top 40 has so far not warmed to "Living." It's received a mere 10 plays at the format (through Dec. 23) (led by KMXV Kansas City, which has sampled it three times). Then again, Interscope Records serviced the song at midnight, Monday morning (Dec. 22) as a soft sell. An Interscope source tells Billboard that the label will re-service the song after New Year's and decide on an official "add" date shortly thereafter. (Surely the song's rush-release and Christmas week timing, when many programmers are on vacation, play into radio's general lack of interest in the song do far.)
Madonna last reached the Pop Songs airplay chart in 2012, when "Give Me All Your Luvin' " (featuring Minaj and M.I.A.) and "Girl Gone Wild" reached Nos. 24 and 38, respectively. "Luvin' "was aided by coordinated first-day plays on iHeartMedia-owned stations, as well as Madonna's performance of it during the halftime show at Super Bowl XLVI. "The reason I wanted to call the record Rebel Heart was because I felt like it explores two very distinct sides of my personality," Madonna says. (The album's buzz spurred Madonna to top the Billboard + Twitter real-time Trending 140 chart on Dec. 22.) "The rebellious, renegade side of me, and the romantic side of me. "(Fans will) just get my rebellious and romantic side all mixed in together.") Additional reporting by Keith Caulfield and Gary Trust
