Madonna’s Demo Tape on Auction

Have you ever had a burning desire to own a pair of Michael Jackson’s beaded socks? How about a suit tailor-made for John Lennon when he was a Beatle? Or you might like a size 42 jacket Elvis Presley wore in the film “Speedway.” If you’re in the market for a used car, how about a black 1985 Mercedes that once provided a royal ride for the King of Pop?



Julien estimates the tape will bring $1,000 to $2,000, noting that the Material Girl still holds the copyrights to all the songs.

Those items are among hundreds of rare rock relics being auctioned off this Saturday, Nov. 21, by Julien’s Auctions at the Hard Rock Cafι in Times Square in New York City and online at juliensauctions.com.

…Another unique item is a demo tape an unknown performer named Madonna made in 1979 to send to record companies in an attempt to get a recording contract. Accompanied by an acoustic guitar, it’s just Madonna, her music unadorned by post-production magic and elaborate orchestration. The songs on the tape include “All My Love,” “Hear Me” (a song that evolved into “Shine a Light”), “Simon Says” (which became the familiar “Love Express”) and “Little Lost Boy.”

As german singles are released around the same time here I guessing it might.

As of X Factor she can only premote it on the semi final (dec 5/6*) and sing it or grand final (dec 12/13*) with one of the contestants. These are the only two possible times she could be on the show.

* Approx date of show.

And some Madonna news.

Revolver (One Love Remix)

News is just in from Holland that Warner Music Netherlands will be promoting the new "Revolver" remix by David Guetta today.

The track was named "Madonna vs. David Guetta - Revolver (One Love Remix)" and comes in a version featuring Lil Wayne and one without.

There is no news of a digital release yet.

Post more Revolver news later.

Revolver News

Revolver sent to radio, no video planned

Warner Music Netherlands confirms via Madonna.nl that the David Guetta remix of Revolver was sent to Dutch radio today, but just like Guy Oseary confirmed last month, no video will be filmed for the release.

It is currently unknown whether Revolver is going to be released as a physical single or digital-only, but it's listed for December 14th in UK's Music Week magazine. This date is not confirmed by Warner, neither any other airplay or release date for other countries.

While Revolver, featuring the biggest selling hip hop artist of 2008 definitely has hit potential, fans should not expect any notable chart action for this catchy song as it's been available as an individual download on iTunes for 2 months already and it's unlikely that gets considerable airplay, which means Madonna's very last Warner single will be a "for the fans" release with several remixes.

------------------------------------------------------

That sucks it NEEDS a video for it to sell. Otherwise it will flop like Miles Away did. Come on PLEASE release a video for Revolver!

Rumour: Madonna dons bullet proof vest in Brazi

lMadonna insisted on wearing a bullet proof vest during her visit to a Rio de Janeiro slum even as she was accompanied by a squad of bodyguards.

The state governor also gave company to the 51-year-old hitmaker, reports the Daily Express.

Madonna stayed in the shanty town for nearly 40 minutes.

The star is trying to raise funds from local businessmen to aid a children’s charity there.

Confessions… #29 on Times’ 100 best pop albums of the Noughties list

29. Confessions on a Dancefloor – Madonna (Maverick, 2005)

Anointing Stuart “Les Rythmes Digitales” Price as her voguish producer du jour, Madge approaches her sixth decade with the slinky chutzpah of a 19-year-old club kitten. From the Abba-sampling Hung Up to the turbo-charged feminist floorfiller Jump, this is her best album since True Blue.

[Harry!]

Rumour: Madonna was in the studio last month…

...Madonna also had work done in PatchWerk’s Studio 9000 this past October. Madonna had songs mixed by Leslie Brathwaite, assisted by PatchWerk engineer Brian Pedersen. In September 2009 Madonna released Celebration, her third greatest hits album, and closing release with Warner Bros. Records. It contained the new songs “Celebration” and “Revolver”, plus 34 hits spanning her career.
