So after listening to the track in CDQ quality, was the wait worth it? What are your thought on the Timbaland/Madonna combination?

ReplyDeleteThanks !!! "Breakdow, comon'..."
very catchy.
ReplyDeletei'm feelin the drum pattern.
I get the same vibe from the drums as i did w/ the 'joe boxer' ad' Timbo did back when.
I Like!
i don't know but does this version sound a bit slower than the radio rip version?
ReplyDeletehot!!!
ReplyDeleteLegendary!! it's incredible what Timbo can make to an artist =)
ReplyDeleteGarbage, so wack song, these horns are like vomit sounds.
ReplyDeletelove the drums and breakdown! it needs a couple of re-listens to feel it tho.
ReplyDeletesomethings missing it dont bang like i thought it would
ReplyDeletemiles away sounds hotter
ReplyDeletebeat is fuckin' great, never liked madonna, but timbo makes her sound good, me like
ReplyDeletei LOVE this.. her new cd might give duran durans a run for their money for me.
ReplyDeleteTimbo does it again the beat is off the hook!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDelete4.5/5
ReplyDeleteWith pharrell and timbo at her production side= one crazy and maybe legendary album.
scratch maybe and leave legendary album plus crazy.
ReplyDeletethe track is really good but I got a feeling is missing something,it's a bit dull sometimes and the chorus wants to be really strong but I just have a feeling it falls flat.The beat however does hit incredible hard, so that's what I think saves the track, but probably not the world...no 1 for sure,but this isn't Madonna's or Tim's best song in their carrers...
ReplyDeleteThis track is fya.
ReplyDeleteI found this somewhere but I think it's fake, the guy who posted it at a website I visit didn't post a source.

yepp i think it's fake to wick... and i have seen it over at wikipedia once before... but there were the labels for the releas of the album was lil waynes label,,,wired??
ReplyDeleteYou guys always forget to give Danja some props!!
ReplyDeleteIt seems that we forget that he has alot of input in terms of the tracks that have Timbalands name next to them!!!!!
http://uploaded.to/?id=orcbnn. Timbo and beanz again. hear some royal court sounds.
ReplyDelete:/
ReplyDeleteI think the song is boring. It's just a flatline for four minutes. A middle 8 section, a beat switch and tighter vocal production would've made the song a bit better. But as it stands, I think the song is pretty crap. It bangs nice, but that's about it.
ReplyDeleteI think "Miles away" sounds much, much better. As do Pharrell's "The beat goes on", "Candy shop" and even "Hey you".
Huge sound. It's like a wall of drums. Not a huge fan yet as far as the song, but cool beat. The end is an anticlimax for sure. I wish they'd gone back into the chorus and faded out or something. As it stands, it just kinda dies for being such a triumphant-sounding song.
ReplyDeleteMiles away way better...
ReplyDeleteit needs a few listens then it will definately grow on anyone...even if it's really repeating itself the beat is way too catchy
ReplyDeleteDoes a tempo become slow?
ReplyDeleteNOW THIS IS A REAL BANGER!!
ReplyDeleteAgree with Random J, the song is crappy.
ReplyDeleteI think y'all hype it up too much. don't really feel it THAT much. its just average too me
ReplyDeletehey...maybe they DID think about stuff..maybe they left out that big-ass beatswitch to keep it simple, maybe the vocal production IS tight and they thought about not overdoing it with they're voices to reinvent the sound of a so called anthem...maybe they're not dumb and know what they do?....maybe you guys are a little too critic with timbaland because you heard a little more from him these last years and became unthankful....?? just guessin...
ReplyDelete5 % faster version

ReplyDeletePower Rangers You only have 4 Minutes to save the world !
ReplyDeleteRight Zordon!
Lets Go Rangers
Lets Do it.. Blue Ranger power Now!!! Red Ranger Power etc
I couldn't Help it but this song still reminds me of that old power ranger intro.. but thats just my opinion
It just isn't the same song without the french dj screaming Booo!! Or it could be the slower tempo...
ReplyDeleteok, i think it is hot. very hot. seems just a little too slow for me though. still great.
ReplyDeletealso, note that the horns in the very first second are ripped from a garageband loop. hehe.
random j, i have not heard the other songs you mentioned (except beat goes on, which i found lame). can you share them?
Boring and really weak horns. Big disappointment!
ReplyDeleteWHAT AN............................
ReplyDeleteANTICLIMAX
this song could have been great but just became boring now, no grand beat switch for madonna tim? are you nuts?!
J, i know i said I wasnt feeling it, but I think i change my mind. The beat def bangs a lot harder than I thought. Lovin the drums and the intro is just sick. I would go as far as saying it lives up to the hype.
ReplyDeletethank u soooo much for putting the sped up version!!! if u listen to them 1 after the other u can deff hear a huge difference. the sped up version is killer! im allready playing it out!
ReplyDeleteWICK!!!! i found that same article on wikipedia!!! Before that was there they had posted an earlier version about other parts and other songs and they said that the labels that would be released for the album were Cash Money (lil Wayne) and Young Money and i was so mad about that but yea i dont believe it to be tru either
ReplyDeleteThe horns sound cheap.
ReplyDeleteThis song is cool, but not as dope as I expect from all that hype around it.
ReplyDeleteThey should've sped it up cause I could see myself mixin "4 Minutes" with "Elevator" in a DJ set.
And hell naw... "The beat goes on" is not better than "4 Minutes." You're fuckin trippin son lol.
faster version
ReplyDeleteGreat!
Hello. This post is likeable, and your blog is very interesting, congratulations :-). I will add in my blogroll =). If possible gives a last there on my blog, it is about the Câmera Digital, I hope you enjoy. The address is http://camera-fotografica-digital.blogspot.com. A hug.
ReplyDeleteFlo Rida ft. Brisco - Elevator pt. 2
ReplyDeleteNot produced by Timbaland though but I think you all might find it interesting, it's sort of like a remix. Same lyrics just rapped different and a different beat.

ReplyDeleteAlmost forgot the link
dont forget, tim dumbed down the track so its pleasng to the dumb people that dont like complicated beats.
ReplyDeleteyou all bash tim as if he is not capable of producing complex beats when he can with his eyes closed but you gotta realize that his music needs to appeal to a wide audience beat from Unreal and al sween would need to be dumbed down too if they where using those has mainstream
I agree to a certain level. Although I think the mainstream is now ready to hear some more complex beats and appreciate it. I think they also did appreciate for example the part after the beatswitch on What goes around.. Comes around.
ReplyDeleteI was pretty mad that the best part was cut out of LoveStoned though, just to make it more appealing for a bigger audience
Also check out this clip from the intro of the OneRepublic concert in Amsterdam I was at last Saturday.
ReplyDeleteWhen I stood there and listened to the drums I was pretty sure it was a Timbaland beat. It also had Timb's signature strings.
I know it's not much but you be the judge:

Also you can take a better listen here:

Apparently this was in London.
I feel like I'm spamming a bit so sorry for that. Just feel like sharing this with you all.
what happened to the beat in the 17 second clip??? it must have been a remix and imo it sounded a lot better than this version...
ReplyDeleteA middle 8 and a really hot beat switch would've made the song better. But as it stands you feel like you're waiting for this huge climax and all we get is the drums with no brass and then the song ends. I think Gwen Stefani or Nelly Furtado would've done wonders with this song. Madonna is too robotic and lifeless and Justin don't sound much better. Between Timbaland, Danja, Justin Timberlake and Madonna, frankly I expected more. As I said before, I'm already in favour of "Miles away" as opposed to "4 minutes".
ReplyDeleteThe only cool aspect of the song is that it's more or less 4 minutes long.
madonna like s to keep the songs close to demos ... she gets upset when they start to over mix and produce ... the Raw'r the betta is her motto
ReplyDeleteOMG!!
ReplyDelete4 Minutes debuted #1 on Australia's largests countdown.
It's getting a Lot of support for a song that's was JUST hit our shores.
The song is RADIO-BUBLEGUM!!
I have'nt noticed Madonna since...
