Who wants to hear new Madonna songs that are in full as opposed to only :30 seconds of each? Was given info today that 7 of her songs from the upcoming Hard Candy were floating around, and sure enough, they are!


In actuality, it's only 6 new songs, as 4 Minutes was also leaked, but in CD quality. So, ya, in total...7.

Tracks out are:
Give it 2 Me
Heartbeat
Miles Away
She's Not Me
Incredible
Beat Goes On
4 Minutes

First impressions, as compared to my opinions based on the :30 second clips.

1. The length of the songs.
Of these 7 tracks, the shortest is Heartbeat, clocking in at 4:02 with 4 Minutes at 4:05. The remaining tracks range in length from 4:33 to 6:20. 6:20!!! Damn girl, don't hurt 'em.

2. Initial favorites destroyed.
From the album sampler clip leak, I was hard up for She's Not Me. After hearing the full length version, I've realized I enjoy it, but until I hear the full album, it's HIGHLY unlikely that it will be my favorite.

3. Repetition, repetition, repetition
She sure wants to stress what she's saying. Example of lyrics completely overused and abused:
"...get stupid, get stupid, get stupid..."
"...she's not me, she's not me...and never will be, never will be (x25+)..."
"...incredible, incredible, incredible, incredible, incredible..."

You know what is fire though?

Give it 2 Me. Thanks to a hearty dose of vocoder goodness, and a chunky little bass and beat, we've got a definite bumper with this track.

So here's the thing. I fear the record labels. So I will not post these. However, if you email me here, I'll make some magic happen.

Or you can stream them all here.

What do we think?
