ARTIST: Madonna
TITLE: “Celebration”
WEB DEBUT: July 30, 2009


ONE-LISTEN VERDICT: The title track from Madonna’s forthcoming greatest-hits album Celebration leaked today, and the Paul Oakenfold-produced track sounds like it could have been scrounged from the You Can Dance cutting-room floor; Madge is singing about partying and not recognizing clubbing partners while they’re clothed over a brash, synthpop-by-the-numbers beat. Her voice still has that sorta-strangled post-Ray Of Light quality—but I have to say, when she let loose a girlish giggle on the bridge, it just about melted my bad-Neptunes-collab-frozen heart.


WHERE TO FIND IT: YouTube embeds of it are getting faster than you can say “4 Minutes To Save The World,” but this clip of an adorable baby getting into its groove provides a nice little preview:
