New Madonna (Feat. Justin Timberlake) - "4 Minutes (To Save The World)"

Madonna's new single was leaked by a French DJ a couple days ago -- and now it's popping up everywhere. Like here. A lot of fun, oui? For their part, Warner's been really vigilant about folks YouTubing or otherwise uploading it. They issued a copyright claim post haste, but nobody should be surprised that "they were still not quick in enough for thousands of motivated fans of the Material Girl, who managed to download the video or song..." Also via AccuraCast "As of the time of publishing this article, only one video of the track could still be found on DailyMotion. The track included the voice-over of the French DJ announcing the new single at the start." Who knew Warner could be so efficient? Uploads will shift by the minute -- hope you like playing Whac-A-Mole, Bros.

Like the track was even any good. Yeah Warner, you better run and hide it from the people.

This is a great track if you have zero taste in music. The lyrics suck, the fake horns suck, Timbaland's echoed grunts suck. At least vapid songs like this illustrate the talent of true musicians.

Sad that Madonna has sunk down to the cheap, talentless level of Timberlake. Don't whore yourself out to the latest shitty trends, Madonna. You're better than that.

I want those four minutes of my time back, that song is terrible and you people that say it's good have SHITTY taste in music. I'm not saying that Timberlake or Madonna are bad artist but that song was awful and the video didn't help it. I hope that track is some shitty sing along for a movie called Four Minutes to Save the World....I mean people aren't even listening to music anymore you are just buying the name that's on it. It's like a comedian who is known for being funny, if you see that comedian and he makes a joke that is dumb ass hell or not even funny people will still laugh. And...Rolling Stone and the rest of these magazines are biased as fuck..."song sounds futuristic" ??? LoL Wtf is that supposed to mean? Songs sounding like they are futuristic means they are good now? And on top of that HOW THE FUCK DO THEY KNOW WHAT FUTURISTIC MUSIC SOUNDS LIKE WHEN ITS IN THE FUTURE? CAPS. /endrant

A few things I have to say about this song.

IT FUCKING SUCKS. THOSE WHO LIKE IT ARE DEAF AND HAVE NO FUCKING TASTE IN MUSIC. THE THING I HATE MOST ABOUT THIS SONG IS FUCKING MADONNA SAYING "TICK-TOCK". I EXPECTED MORE FROM 2 THE BEST ARTISTS IN THE WORLD.
