Has Madonna hung up?


Madonna is clearly throwing the towel. Fuck creativity and innovation. Let's just take an ancient disco song, add some custom beats and new lyrics. Bingo. Her new (cough) single Hung Up sounds so cheap, it makes me want to cry. And you know what? I can already see them dance to this crap, throwing their hands in the air like it's 1978. The same folks that can't party without the Village People (Why Am Cee Ey) and the Weather Girls (It's raaaaining, M'am). Maybe it's time to buy a good old ABBA CD after all.

Listen to Hung Up here: Madonna.com

Comments to this weblog entry:

Personally, I don't think it's too bad, not even a bad reference. And it's a little "back to the roots", even for her. We're not getting younger, are we? But I fear the use of well known disco samples has increased primarily due to one development: Cellphone sound processors and speaker quality are reminiscient of the abilities of early electronic music equipment, and stupid teenagers downloading ringtones for absurd prices are creating a new money for literally nothing craze in the music industry... Remember Eric Pryze's/Stever Winwood's "Call on me" last year? Thank God they did produce a video ;).

The song is very nice, something diferent from all we are hearing at the momment, i liked it and i know manyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too.

And madonna still looks hot on that video :O!

This single is wonderful! Aggressive bassline, driving beat, and sensible vocals. Madonna is hot, and this song is a testament to her staying power. I think sampling ABBA is proper, seeing as she is paying homage to to the disco era, an era of escapism. She is a genius, and this song is number one.

So what if it isnt something new??? Does that make the song worse? No. Madonna has done new things enough and this single has nothign new cause it's the first one and the most commercial one. This track rocks! Oooh baby every little thing...

this song is simply SUPERB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. its more contagious than avian flu. i'm hung up on it . go madonna........

I love it! Younger generations today might even be inspired to seek out the song with the original disco riff and expand their musical knowledge further than this decade. Good ol' Madonna :)

She looks good for her age....but she is trying to copy Kylie Minogue...

I think this will be huge even though I don't like it.
Okay, you can sing-a-long very quick, it's catchy, it's sampling Abba (who the fuck really wants to sample Abba? They're good on their own, leave them alone.), and and and...
I think Madonna just needs to please her gay-crowd with this track, nothing much more. And they will love it!
Don't get me wrong here, I am also gay...
But thank God I don't have to dance on one of these dancefloors that play this kind of commercial crap..
Madonna, you can do much betta!

bad bad bad

the only good parts of the video are the parts without her. her part is basically the "call on me" video, and the airbrushing can only cover up so much of her sagging thighs.

What's the back ground melody from??
Which song is it stolen?


Sorry for the bad englisch i'm from germany^^ -.-
lol

yeah..i'd like to know that too.
it sounds friggin cool

Is it just me or the comment to "The same folks that can't party without the Village People (Why Am Cee Ey) and the Weather Girls (It's raaaaining, M'am)." was a bit homophobic??? Hey pal... gays have been buying "good old ABBA CD after all" for a loooong time now, and they were the only ones who defended Madonna while the rest were attacking her as "outdated" only to agree with us a few moths after that, when the Album was recognised universally as good???
I mean!!! Who are u kidding??

Madonna is a freaking living legend! forget about her snobby attitude, forget about her bitchiness, forget about how commercial her music is. She's a musical phenomenon that will be remembered as one of the most prominent icons in modern music/pop-culture history.

As for hung up..any song that samples ABBA gets my two thumbs up!! That song is sheer geniosity I tell you. I got the chance to hear the whole album and TRUST ME when I say this: it is going to be MASSIVE!!

go Madonna...!!

the frigging song in the background is abba's gimme gimme gimme

Bet your ass everyone's gonna copy this. I'm sure loads of producers are now frantically searching for a catchy sample from Abba.
Honestly, I first had the same reaction as you Heiko. But after hearing it a couple of times it now sticks in my brain like a Sony DRM rootkit.

the tune is good .. FINAL

and come on guys .. Madonna is not exactly the first one to take an old tune and make it new !

I thought the ass in the air in the first 30 seconds was pretty damn catchy myself. I'd still throw it in there! I bet shes a good screw for over 40!

O.o

I love both abba and madonna. been following madonna's career for 21 years now and i think she's awesome! Hung up samples on Gimme3 which was also one of my favourite songs. I agree that after listening to Hung up, it sorta stick to my brain for hours. It's just soo catchy. It is going to be HUGE! And the new generation will want to find out about Abba and they will be surprised that Abba is the greatest group in the world that managed to stay on top throughout the 70's...no other group can do that except the beatles. Oh, and Madonna rocks!

I walked into a club last Friday night and this one was pumping out. Absolutely awesome. Everyone was totally high on it..even the plonkers at the bars were jumping about. Always loved ABBA & Madonna..always will...

Give me a break! Madonna sucks! She has to result to copying sound bytes from abba. Madonna, try to be a little more creative and invent your own damn music. In addition, madonna is so nasty. If she was not famous, most people would agree that she is horribly ugly, which she is. The fact that she is wearing those horrible purple BARNY-ish leotards is another testament to her patheticness.
