Madonnarama, a Madonna fansite, has gotten the chance to listen to some demos from Madonna’s new album and confirm that Madonna has already recorded over 40 songs with many different producers and artists, e.g. Diplo, Pharrell, Avicii, Natalia Kills, Martin Kierszenbaum, and Toby Gad.
They were allowed to spill some details about the two following tracks. It’s not clear whether the songs will make the final cut.
Beautiful Scars
This is a cool pop song about the beauty of being imperfect.“Take me with all of my beautiful scars… I come to you with all of my flaws” sings Madonna, fighting for self esteem.
She’s a host of imperfection and sees her flaws as beautiful scars asking to be loved the way she is.
“I won’t apologize for being myself.”Although the slightly vocoded vocals are unnecessary, “Beautiful Scars” remains a sweet mid-tempo song that could be considered.
Holy Water
On her 1992 album Erotica, Madonna confessed about one of her favorite fat-free meals.
Well, she’s back: “Baby you should get down low and drink my precious alcohol.”Penned by Madonna, Martin Kierszenbaum and Natalia Kills, “Holy Water” is basically a shameless song about enjoying the pleasures of oral sex on the receiving end.
Madonna repeats “bitch get off my pole”, and compares the taste of her juice to a religous symbol: “Don’t it taste like Holy Water?”
It’s probably the most overtly sexual track we listened to. It’s sort of fun, but forgettable.
It lacks the sexy, smooth, languorous tone one could expect from Madonna dealing with sexuality.
