PopBytes was nice enough to share the rare bonus track from Madonna's "Confessions" with me on Friday. Story goes Madge had originally planned "Super Pop" as the 13th track on her latest CD, but thankfully SOMEONE (who ever you are, I love you) stopped her and instead it's being sent out to her ICON Fan Club only (I'm guessing they would be the only ones able to forgive her for this.) If you thought the rap in "American Life" was bad... "Super Pop" features lyrics like:
"If I was a drink I'd be a lemon drop." and "If I was the President I would be different." You really have to hear it to believe it.
Listen to Madonna "Super Pop" [mp3]
And for once, I am happy that is one fan club I am not in.

You people are too serious and uppity for your own good. Super Pop is a hilarious, yet personal song with a phat beat and some wanky guitar. It's fun and frivolous. The lyrics might seem silly but are actually quite tongue in cheek good - lion=Leo, artist=Frida, etc. Madonna shares some aspirations and influences.
Lighten up.

I didn't hate it THAT much, I gotta tell you...

There's a thin line between "frivolous" and "embarassingly stupid," and this uppity listener has to agree with PopMuse - Madonna has crossed that line. I like Madonna, but this song makes me feel like SHE'S a dork. If she was a lyricist, she'd be a flop. If she was a janitor, she'd like to mop. If she was Italian, she'd be a wop. If she was a Mick, then she'd be a cop. If she was a faggot, she'd be a top.
Just because things rhyme doens't mean it's a song.
That is all.
PS - No offense to any Italians reading this - for the record, I'm a faggot Mick.
THAT is all.

was that written for her new children's book?

Inspite of the words I liked it. the production is actually more original than some tracks on the album. "If I had better lyrics I'd be a hit."

i have to agree with tomi. this song is better than most of the crap on confessions. the beat is super funky and punchy. i love the "oooh...yeah"s. yea, the lyrics are kinda dumb.
Posted by: rydawg | December 09, 2005 at 06:42 PM
this has incredible potential for a hit single, if only the lyrics were touched up. extensively.

Great beat. The lyrics seem right for a dance album. This is a great song that I can't wait to dance to at a club.
Posted by: Chadrick | December 14, 2005 at 10:13 AM
you guys man, its just a joke....the main message is to be the best
geez, just coz she's slagging of George Bastard, i mean Bush...
Posted by: Anon | December 14, 2005 at 11:29 AM
I actually quite like it. It's fun silly super pop. It's not like shes trying to recreate "oh father" or "like a prayer" with this one. Its just fun, lay off kids. 'Hollaback girl' wasn't exactly 'imagine' you know.

This track is not 'that' bad. Especially after listening to "I Love New York" - which makes me embarrassed for Madonna just listening to it. Lyrics like "other cities make me feel like a dork"....must have been a long night in the recording studio when they came up with this one. "Hmmmmmm....what rhymes with 'New York'.....pork, stork, bjork, cork, - I know! Dork. Great, let's go home now". Awful.

OMG...i was actually entertained reading all of your responses. LOL. I can see from both sides, where all of you are coming from. Totttaallllllly diggin' the song. That's Madonna....she can get stupid with her songs and the shit still sounds good...and what?
Posted by: Mika | January 21, 2006 at 04:58 PM
This song is great! The lyrics aren't meant to be serious....well at least, not until the whole jab at the President! Love it! It's a cute, little tongue-in-cheek track!
Posted by: James Roman | February 02, 2006 at 04:24 PM
Wow!, I wish this had been left on the albem!, It would have been the most "danceabul" song on there, Don't get me rong, I love Madonna, and I love every single song on "Confessions on a Dancefloor". But some of them are not really dance songs, exspeshely "Forbidden Love" and "How High",-but i still like them, just not to dance to, But "Super Pop" Is almost better then "Hung up" Music'ly,lol, not lyric'ly-
Posted by: Phil | February 04, 2006 at 05:16 PM
The song is great! It will gonna be a HIT!!!!!!!!!! Go On Madonna! You are the GREAT!
Posted by: Fani | April 28, 2006 at 06:32 AM

Queen of music/dancefloor/reinvention !! keep on making music/books/movies love you !! cant wait for July 21st !!!! xox

great tune madonna should'nt be taken seriously all the time isn't she allowed to have FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: tina jones | June 21, 2006 at 03:59 AM
so this song is a guilty pleasure of mine. its funny and egotistic. i, however, think this track and I Love New York should be released under "Modonna: Greatest Fits"
they just dont fit the sophisticated theme of Confessions on a Dancefloor, which already is a lame album title for me.
