As the March 26th release of Madonna’s upcoming album, MDNA, approaches, we will be keeping you updated on the latest leaks, giving our thoughts on the songs, and telling you which ones are our favorites.

Enter our Madonna ‘MDNA’ giveaway at (facebook.com/gmanmagazine)!! Giveaway ends, March 25 – 11pm.

10. I Fucked Up

Not what we were expecting this song to be. We were expecting an upbeat, in your face jam, however, we are pleasantly surprised to find this track to be one of the mellowest of the tracks off the upcoming album. Madonna shares some of her most thoughtful lyrics in this song, leading us to believe she is talking about her failed marriage, a reoccurring theme on MDNA. We’re in love!

9. Beautiful Killer

Madonna shares a sample of another great song, ‘Beautiful Killer.’ This time we are taken back to ‘Ray of Light’ and ‘Beautiful Stranger.’ This is the perfect blend of those two songs, which are also produced by the amazing William Orbit. This album continues to get better with each new clip.

8. I Don’t Give A

WOW! This is a hot track. Very upbeat, trip-hop style, with a lot of rap-talk verse. The lyrics talk about her failed marriage, one would assume that is what she is talking about when she says, “I tried to be your wife, diminish myself and I swallowed all my light, I tried to become all you expect of me and if I am a failure, I don’t give a…” So far this is one of our favorite tracks and it features one of our other favorites, Nicki Minaji.

7. Falling Free

We have been waiting to hear ‘Falling Free,’ and it is finally here. This is one of the William Orbit produced tracks and shows a softer, more introspective side of Madonna that we have not see in quite some time. We are absolutely in love with this song. The lyrics will ring true for many!

6. Superstar

Madonna’s daughter Lourdes is featured on this sweet, bubbly, track about loving the people the most that are on our side, doing the best work. This is one of the most fun tracks we have heard from Madonna in ages and we are loving every minute of it.

5. Gang Bang

Haven’t been this excited about a track in a long while. Madonna delivers big time on ‘Gang Bang.’ She talks about shooting her lover in the head. Of course we know Madge doesn’t mean for this to be taken seriously but it is a great feeling to express. Don’t we all feel like shooting our lover in the head ever once in a while? By far, this is the favorite of the tracks thus far.

4. Love Spent

This is a slightly mellow dance track, with a pounding beat. We are loving this because we can see that Madonna is talking about how love has worn her out. Great song, we are looking forward to hearing it in full.

3. I’m Addicted

Again, Madonna takes us to the club in this 60-sec snippet of ‘I’m Addicted.’ This song is slightly reminiscent of the work she did on ‘Confessions on a Dancefloor,’ but at an accelerated pace. We are going to need to hear this in full before making a final decision on this track, but this is our least favorite of the tracks so far.

2. Girl Gone Wild

This is still our favorite so far of the songs we have heard from the album. The album version is by far more appealing with its prayer interlude. Madonna returns once again to the dance floor, with this electrifying new single. She makes us all want to get a little wild.

1. Turn up the Radio

‘Turn up the Radio,’ was one of the first songs we got a sample of and has stood as one of our favorites. This is bliss, pure Madonna bliss. Doesn’t matter what anyone thinks, this is pop made for and by Madonna for lovers of the Queen.
