I was so excited about the mermaid theme that was being mentioned : (
Superpop is a work of art simply based on the 'If I was a star I would be who I am today' line. It is reminiscent of the genius of gambler where she sings 'you're getting angry you think I can't see, your just jealosu cause you can't be me'. God bless Madonna.

Or get one of the young pretenders to play Madonna in an Elton John-Justin Timberlake style. But I suppose noone except Britney could fill her boots

What is Superpop? A new b-side or something?

I think it was a 'Confessions...' bonus track or an exclusive new track available to her slightly sad ICON fan club members.
Super Pop is absolutely rubbish by the way.

I've just heard rumours that Get Together won't have a new video. Just crappy performance footage and stuff. How boring and officially makes Confessions the album with the worst videos. Nah, if you remember 1985 she released 6 singles in a row without proper videos, 'Crazy for you' and 'gambler' were both just taken from 'Visionquest' and were just scenes of her singing in the film along with clips from the film, 'Into the groove' likewise with 'Desperately seeking Susan' but without any shots of her actually singing, 'Angel' was just a collection of her other videos cobbled together, 'Dress you up' is just taken from the 'Virgin tour live' video and the re-release of 'Holiday' had no video, just that cheesy 80's TV show clip. The last singles without videos were 'Keep it together', 'Hanky panky', 'Rescue me' and 'One more chance', and agreed it is a bit lazy to release a single without a proper video, kind of makes it 'less' of a single in some ways.

It might not be so bad if the rumours that the video will be a montage of behind the scenes and on stage footage from the "Confessions Tour" are true. If it was filmed (on proper film and not cheap video tape) and edited well in the style of the wizzy performances from "I'm Going To Tell You A Secret" then it could be quite a nice taster for the tour.
I'd rather that than a cheap over dubbed video tape thing like "Hanky Panky" got.

If there is no proper video for this single then the woman is a lame lazyass! Not by any stretch of the imagination can Madonna be called lazy. Here are the options: another video feauturing Madge in all her body-popping, camel-toed, sweaty leotard-wearing "glory" to complete the "series" or another fabulous tour as only she could? I know which one I'd prefer...

Jump was planned as the 3rd single, however Get Together has had over 20,000 individual US downloads and Jump has had 10,000 therefore that was the limit of the science Warners put to the decision..
Video looks like being a lame montage .. Madge wants to release Jump, wont make a video for Get Together...
Its Impressive Instant vs Amazing all over again..

My first favorit of the album is Get Togehter, which I had always imagined as a single. I love the beginning (aside from that annoying ringing) when the beat kicks in... I haven't stood still for once when I listened to it. I'd love her to do a good video for it, but when I think of what's been said about the record company deciding an d her disaproving it... I think we ca forget about a decent video and have to take yet another great song without a propper video to it. But all the same, Get Together is FAB!

Surely everyone knows the main reason for Get Together having 20000 downloads on iTunes is simply because it's the second track on the album. People bought Hung Up, then wanted to hear another track, so naturally they went for track 2.

andifeel mentioned Impressive nstant. What happened with Impressive Instant? I remember at the time thinking it was the biggest atrocity in the history of "biggest atrocities ever" that the song was not a single. Anyone have the inside goss?

Madonna and most other people wanted Impressive Instant as the next single, but Warner wanted her to go with Amazing instead. They even sent a promo cd to radiostations, but Madonna still refused to make a video for it. When Warner announced they would use her performance of it on the Drowned World Tour as the video, she took the song off of the setlist.

Get Together is just bland bland bland bland BLAND BLAND BLAND!!
She should release 'I Love New York' next and if not then Jump or How High, or perhaps even a cut down version of Isaac?

Personaly I think 'Isaac' is the worst track of the album... It's this 90s beat with a 90s hummed chorus... pleas forget it as an option.
I think 'Get Together' is the best choice as a single... 'I Love New York' and 'Jump' too. Though I hear a lot of people complain about the daft phrase in 'I Love NY' ''other cities make me feel like a dork''... I think it's fun
