Listen To New Madonna Single "Hey You"

Madonna's new single "Hey You" will be released as a digital charity single to benefit Live Earth, a foundation that is organising nine high-profile concerts around the world on July 7 to raise awareness about climate change.

Well, it is not the entire thing, but at least a good forty seconds of a low-bit rate version. If this is the song that is supposed to mobilize the youth of the world against climate change, I'm not sure if it is going to do the job (despite the subtle marching drum).

What do you think? Like or dislike?

In related news, Sir Bob Geldof makes some interesting remarks about Live Earth in today's issue of The Independent. He argues that Live Earth is a waste of time that "doesn't have a final goal."

"I would only organise this if I could go on stage and announce concrete environmental measures from the American presidential candidates, Congress or major corporations," he tells the British newspaper. "They haven't got those guarantees. So it's just an enormous pop concert or the umpteenth time that, say, Madonna or Coldplay get up on stage."

The paper also writes that Geldof is "irked" by the naming of the global concert event that resembles his beloved Live Aid initiative. "[Live Earth] sounds like Live8. We're getting lots of responses from people who think we are organising it," he adds.

There's nothing wrong with a big and fun (environmentally conscious) pop concert, but I agree with Geldof that this is a great opportunity to also impact legislation.

just downloaded it from msn. don't know about you but it kinda not up to expectation considering it's Madonna and Pharell. One would have expected something more innovative, more upbeat instead of a ballad, almost like an acapella backed up by drum beats. err...hey you!

i got it from msn too. it's just ok.. not that fantastic.

think she's just trying things out with this song and pharrell.. and that's why she released it first to see the response from the fans.

but i'm pretty sure she's cooking up better stuff for the new album.. and hope she'll not include this song in it!

Rather boring for a Madonna song! A dance remix might help it a lot!
6. 2007-05-19 23:59

Sounds like somebody is trying to create music and lyrics with her guitar, recorded accidentally, and being 'electronized' by sound editor. I hate the lyrics though... I don't wanna hear I don't wanna knoooowww.....

PS: I wrote much nicer comments before, but cuz I forgot to logged in first when I posted it, ur "Not so fast galfriend" sign came up and erased all my text!!! Can't u find a way to not doing that? Change your system or something, huh fridae?

what happened to MADAMADONNA....sounds like she had a lazy afternoon in studio and decided to recycle American Pie to meet Old Father and still tring to KEEP IT TOGETHER again??? Disappointed.......beep (hung up)
12. 2007-05-23 12:31  
Seriously, it sounds like Martika's "Toy Soldiers". (Oh no, I just dated myself!)
13. 2007-05-24 01:43  
i still prefer Confessions On A Dance Floor this album....
14. 2007-05-24 09:04  
Whatever she sings, I just love her :)
15. 2007-05-24 15:26  
From Pharrell???? Did he left his creativity at the little boy's room?

And what was Madonna thinking? It sounds like a "Hey Jessie" but pale comparison.

And Bob Geldof has a point. It seems that people only want to do work of justice if they are entertained. The usual consumerist thinking. However I was irked by some of the pop performance at Live 8 also. Cos' their songs has nothing to do with the theme of the event. In fact some just totally miss the mark (or way off). If Geldof is one of them people behind Live 8, he needs to rethink also.
