 So Tasty. October 10, 2008

Once more Madonna brings another album that shows that she really has a flawless talent. Every album that she records takes us on a tour of a renovated Madonna but obviuosly, with her same roots.
Her previous album "Confessions on a dance floor" from my point of view was one of her greatest productions, (I found "American life" not good).
"Hard candy" has a more commercial sound. It has contribuitions of big names in the american music business such as Pharrell Willimas, Timbaland, Kanye West and Justin Timberlake. All the songs sound fresh and have great rhythms. The opennig track, "Candy shop" gives the album's tittle and is fun. My favorite track on this album is "Give it 2 me" next to Pharrell. It is a song that makes you feel like deancing, another great tune is "Beat goes on" next to Kanye West. "Dance 2tonight" is one of the songs with less rhythm but still very good. Actually the whole album is very good, after listening it you'll like it more and well, if you like Madonna there isn't much to say, it is all history.
What I would like to comment as an advice, is that if you are hesitating about either buying the simple or special release version, buy the simple one. I have the special package and it doesn't include anything special. The box is very big (hard to put next to other cd's) and has the same pictures. The only extras are 2 remixes from "4 minutes" (the remixes are good but nothing really special) and a small bag of candies.

Hard Candy being Madonna's latest release is an ok release that is neither really bad or all that good either. I did not expect Confessions part II, knowing that Madonna likes to change her music and image for every record she releases. This time it just does not work all that well. Whilst it worked like a charm with William Orbit. This time around with Timbaland it sounds uninspired many times. 4 minutes, Give it 2 me are great tracks. However, to much Timbaland just gets, well not that fun. As for the book-let. Well Madonna looks even more plastic then usual. That outfit is not especially flattering. No lyrics and the rest of the information is basically impossible to read. I expected a lot more from this and therefore I give it 3/5!

Not a huge Madonna fan in general, but really liked this one. I highly recommend it. Pretty fun to work out to also!!!

Catchy songs including The Billboard Hot 100 TOP TEN Hit "4 minutes" with Justin Timberlake and Timbaland, "Give it 2 me" and "The beat goes on" with Kanya West (not a remake of the 1967 Sonny and Cher classic) In the U.S. "Hard Candy" has sold about 648,000 copies according to Nielsen SoundScan, and many of the songs can be heard during Madonna's "Sticky and Sweet" tour, where she also gets into Politics. Interestingly, In the 2008 Presidential Primary race, Hillary Clinton earned more Votes than any Presidential Primary candidate in the history of America (hillaryclintonforum, The Denver Group)
 Perhaps one of the worst albums ever recorded October 7, 2008

I've been a big Madonna fan since 1983. I was excited, when I bought the album. What a huge disappointment! It seems that Madonna could not wait any longer to fulfill her contractual obligations to Time Warner and in doing so she put out a terrible album.
The heavy beats and over produced music makes drowns out her already thin and weak voice. Her singing sounds empty and lifeless. The lyrics are cliched; Madonna, we've been there and done that with you already. Forwarding within and between songs hoping to find a decent song is not possible; each song sounds has the same annoying and awful beats and music. Hard Candy is one of the worst CDs I own. It's a shame that at this point in her 25-year career Madonna put out her worst album. She jumped the shark!
