"Dervilla Mullan, Director of Online, eircom said “We are thrilled to be the first music provider in Ireland to offer listeners the chance to stream Madonna’s new album MDNA before anyone else. eircom MusicHub listeners can stream the album from 9am tomorrow morning and for all true Madonna fans this is very exciting indeed. I for one can’t wait until tomorrow morning to listen to the Queen of Pop’s latest songs”.
After nearly 30 years of making music, no one has come close to matching the impact of Madonna. Madonna's unwavering commitment to her craft has translated into sales of over 200 million albums worldwide, not to mention record-breaking tours that raise the bar for creativity. With MDNA, she breaks innovative new ground with songs that explode with ferocious rhythmic energy, while also offering the kind of irresistible pop melodies that are the hallmark of her classic compositions.
MDNA -Song by Song
Madonna describes MDNA as a collaboration stating “I am not totally in charge, but it’s more direct and it’s more simplistic”.
Clearly, there is, indeed, only one queen... and that is Madonna. MDNA opens with "Girl Gone Wild," an anthemic collaboration with Italian club wunderkind Benny Benassi. Amid a frenetic collision of beats and keyboards, Madonna sets the tone for an album that she vividly characterizes as having the intensity of a "caged animal." From there, the listener is taken on the heart-racing, reckless joyride "Gang Bang," a reunion with Ray of Light collaborator William Orbit. At the first ominous, bass-soaked thump of the beat, it's clear that Madonna and Orbit are navigating previously unchartered musical territory. The unapologetic, foreboding tone of anger in her vocal builds to the point of violent mania. And just when you think she couldn't go any further, she does. This is Madonna at her most primal and animalistic.
There is no denying the kinetic chemistry that Madonna shares with Orbit, as exemplified by their additional MDNAcreations. "Some Girls" exudes an almost masculine funk swagger, while "I'm A Sinner" shows the pair indulging in jangly guitars and retro-splashed pop percussion. It is also with Orbit that Madonna has created her most delicate compositions, most notably the deliciously romantic "Falling Free," and the gently percussive "Masterpiece," which won a 2012 Golden Globe Award for its inclusion in her motion picture directorial debut, "W.E."
In contrast to Madonna's pensive moments with Orbit on MDNA are flourishes of spectacular joy with Benassi. It is during their dance floor-friendly tracks that long time aficionados of the artist's pure-pop efforts will experience absolute bliss. He brings out her cheeky, playful side on "I'm Addicted," which reveals its massive pop-hit potential in its booming bassline and its meticulous, infectious chorus chant.
Of the collaborations Madonna explores throughout this project, the results of her time with French DJ/producer Martin Solveig are the most unexpectedly intriguing. Their shared affinity for film and art imagery is unmistakable in their lyrics, drawing an ear-tickling contrast with the sweet, often varied tones of their music. "Turn On The Radio" has a charming, earnest quality, while the top-10 hit "Give Me All Your Luvin'" has a sexy, surf-rock vibe that conjures images of sunshine within its first few instrumental bars.
Perhaps most powerful of Madonna and Solveig's tracks is the reflective "I Don't Give A...," during which she ruminates on the necessary end to a relationship with brutally sensitive prose like "I tried to be a good girl. I tried to be a wife. Diminished myself. I swallowed my light." It's a startlingly beautiful, delicate moment that evolves into a climax of extraordinary empowerment.
MDNA is unequivocal proof that Madonna continues to be the world's most inventive musical artist. Her desire to bring bold new ideas to the mainstream is unparalleled. No doubt, this will be illustrated in a worldwide concert trek that will show the artist shattering the boundaries of a traditional stage show.
Madonna understands and respects the simple purity of pop music, while thriving on the belief that people are as smart and hungry for truth and art as she is. It is that belief that will undeniably keep Madonna creating more inspired and inspiring music for years to come."
