A sneak listen of Madonna's "Miles away"

The 49 year old souless android that is Madonna appeared on daytime Japanese news where she gave a personal message to SMAP member Takuya Kimura. She spoke slow and stilted like her batteries were about to power down - but who cares when we get to hear a sneak peak of a new song of hers!?



The song is called "Miles away", is produced by Timbaland & Danja, co-produced by Madonna and co-written by Justin Timberlake. I think the song sounds hot. It has than same ethereal vibe that Nelly Furtado's "All good things (Come to an end)" and Duran Duran's "She's too much" had. Even from such a short clip I already like it shit loads better than "4 minutes". "Miles away" actually sounds like Timbaland and Madonna met in the middle, rather than Madonna going with a hip-hip joint that has her take a back seat to the beat (which drowns her out) and Justin Timberlake (who is on the song as much as she is).

I officially just got more excited about her album. It's good to know Timbaland and Danja's contributions to Hard candy won't all be hard hip-hop. I don't think I could cope with a Madonna album where 50% of it sounds like "4 minutes".
