Addicted to Madonna‘s MDNA? Join the club.

While you were busy gang banging, sinning and fucking up earlier this afternoon, the acoustic remix of one of the best songs on the record, “Love Spent” just leaked–and it’s absolutely phenomenal.

William Orbit‘s alternate take on the track–available only via pre-order of the deluxe edition of MDNA on iTunes–strips away the spacey electronica textures of the original, leaving room for some dreamy strumming guitar/banjo business (don’t worry, it works!). The new mix also includes an absolutely gorgeous chant between verses by Priscilla Renea, the talented songwriter behind tracks for artists like Rihanna (“California King Bed”) and Cheryl Cole (“Happy Hour”). A random addition for sure, but incredibly welcome nonetheless.

Simply put, it’s bliss.

Watch the video premiere of Madonna‘s new single off of MDNA, “Girl Gone Wild,” which just premiered tonight!

It’s so (homo)erotic…

The song’s called “Girl Gone Wild,” so naturally, The Queen enlisted a half-dozen deliciously lickable…male models to writhe all over each other for the duration of the Mert & Marcus-directed clip. Guess who’s not mad about that creative decision? THIS GUY! I WANT TO LICK THIS ENTIRE VIDEO.

But no, for serious though: Even if the men provide plenty of candy (and apples!), it’s truly all about Madonna. She looks absolutely incredible: Sexy, stretchy, strong. No leotards, no stick-figure arms. Even if she’s going on about being wild, there’s no doubt that Madonna is completely and utterly in control. She appears in this video like she does in the annals of pop culture: Like an icon.

From “Like A Prayer” to “Vogue” to “Erotica” to “Human Nature, the video references much of Madonna’s back catalog. The religious imagery, the bondage, the overt sexuality. Sin! Sex! Smut! It’s all there.

And while the preview released a few weeks ago might have already clued us into the heavily S&M-inspired visuals for the clip, who knew there’d be so much…DANCING? Yes, dancing! Madonna, age 53, holding her own alongside my favorite svelte Ukranian dance troupe, Kazaky. (That IS Kazaky, right? There’s still some debate…) And yes, EVERYONE’S IN HEELS. That’s fucking commitment!

By the way, that steaming pipe (or whatever she’s throwing around) at the end represents your faves.

She’s just so inspiring. Over 30 years and counting, and she’s making music videos that are still more iconic than most every pop chick in the game. I’m getting emotional…

While you were carefully zigzagging around keeled-over frat boys decked out in green tees and over-sized shamrock hats on the streets this past weekend, Madonna‘s graced us with one, but two new previews from her upcoming twelfth studio album, MDNA. Better still, one of the previews is a full song leak!

“I Fucked Up,” produced by Martin Solveig, is one of the most personal, post-divorce moments of MDNA we’ver heard thus far, slow-tripping above a staggering organic beat (very Guy Sigsworth-y!) and ambient string sections, recalling the introspective quality of Ray of Light‘s “Drowned World/Substitute For Love.”

My favorite part is the second verse’s sudden energy build: As the music quickens, Madge begins listing off a couple dozen coulda-woulda-shoulda moments: “We could have bought a house with a swimming pool,” “We could have toured the world in a private jet”) until finally resigning: “We could have lived life crazy ’til the day we died/Instead I made you cry.”

Beautifully executed, sweetly sung…I’ve never heard the words “I fucked up” sound so very delicate and somber before!

“I fucked up, I made a mistake. Nobody does it better than myself…”

Along with “I Fucked Up” comes a 60-second snippet of “Best Friend,” a track featured on the deluxe edition of MDNA produced by the Benassi Bros. and the Demolition Crew.

Sadly, this one’s not quite working for me as well as any of the other snippets. With that electronic hip-hop beat and generous heaps of Auto-Tune, the song’s giving me all shades of the try-hardness that made Hard Candy occasionally hard to swallow. I’m not really feeling it…

But look on the bright side: It’s just a bonus/deluxe track!

“I cannot lie and I won’t pretend/But I feel like I lost my very best friend…”

Surprise! The snippets from Madonna‘s MDNA just keep on keepin’ on!

Today’s track: “Beautiful Killer,” which was produced by Martin Solveig and inspired by French film star, Alain Delon.

My first reaction? OHMYGOD, it sounds just like a Girls Aloud track! (Specifically “Singapore.”)

The swirling, listless ’60′s vibe with the surf guitar and dramatic strings? Excellent. And that whispering of “Beautiful Killer”? Tingles! So very “Love Profusion.” (“I got you, under my skin…”) What a femme fatale!

I can’t handle the wait any longer. Someone put me out of my misery already!

“Can’t really talk with a gun in my mouth…”

The next 60-second snippet from Madonna‘s MDNA has arrived.

Today’s track? “I Don’t Give A”, produced by Martin Solveig and featuring a guest verse by “Give Me All Your Luvin” collaborator, Nicki Minaj.

If “Falling Free” provided tingles of Ray Of Light, “I Don’t Give A” is a heaping helping of American Life…on acid. “I’m gonna be okay/I don’t care what the people say!” the Queen declares above a stomping, soldiering hip-tronica beat.

“I Don’t Give A” is a defiant middle finger in sonic form, featuring Madge preaching what she preaches best (fuck everyone else’s opinion!) and working as hard as ever: It’s fresh, powerful, and much more convincingly “modern” in execution than the cringe-worthy rap in “American Life.”

I’m also living for that stuttering transition before Nicki’s verse (which, by the way, sounds amazing so far.) “Ay yo Madonna, you are the original Don Dada!” Ugh, so good. Need this album. CRAVE this album.

“And if it was a failure, I don’t give a….”

Keep track of all the previously released snippets:
