All For You doesn't deserve this
Distinct growth in quality across all three, but I wouldn’t say they grabbed anyone station-hopping the way most leads that came before did?

"4 Minutes" was huge here in the US. Heard it way more than I ever heard "Hung Up"

I remember seeing Get Smart in the theater and getting my life when 4 Minutes came on at the end
4 Minutes was big in the UK too, it’s probably the Madonna song I heard most in clubs over the past decade.

4 Minutes is well known here in the UK but I’ve heard Hung Up way more. I was literally trying to hurry a bouncer to get into a club before it ended last week.
Hung Up you'll hear more in the gay clubs, 4 Minutes for the str8's.
You've cited two great singles there, but that comparison does the likes of 'Trust A Try', 'Come On Get Up' and 'You Ain't Right' dirty. I wish there was even one song on 'MDNA' that glimpsed the quality of those tracks - and they're just album cuts.

Is this anything? Just got uploaded.

Apparently it's a stem edit, which is interesting considering I'd Rather Be Your Lover is one of the last M songs I'd ever expect to have a multitrack circulating
I am currently obsessed with "Be Careful" (the duet with Ricky Martin). I find it so amazing how deep and operatic her voice sounds.
And while I fux with the way she decides to use/process her voice these days, I do wish she could let us hear more of her organic voice every now and then.

It's one of my fave vocal performances too. No one could listen to that track and say Madonna can't sing.
Living For Love should’ve been huge, regardless of the leak, mix issues.
As a Madonna fan of 30 years I never knew this existed!
I've never been able to get into the Ricky Martin version of Be Careful, the demo from the Ray of Light sessions is divine though.
I’m pretty sure I read somewhere that it was planned as a single but I believe they were not able to schedule to film a video for the song, so they scrapped it. It was even included in Ricky’s Greatest Hits Collection. I think it was a missed opportunity and would have been a top 5 worldwide hit for them.
It would have been if it sampled What Is Love by Haddaway like Hung Up sampled ABBA.
The pre-chorus and chorus are amazing in this remix.
YES. I think so too. I wish I had stems for both songs so I could make an amateur pass at it, because that mashup idea is brilliant.
