Madonna’s Wasting Our Time
Only the most die hardest of die hard Madonna fans will like this collaboration with Justin Timberlake and Timbaland, “Four Minutes To Save The World.” It’s terrible.

Well, I liked it and I’m certainly not a die-hard fan of any of the three artists involved! 🙂
Bitch Republic
I love a lot of Madonna’s music, but this is truly awful.
Bitch Republic
I don’t understand why she wastes her time with talentless people like Britney and Justin.

It’s not her best work…at all. reminds me of Secret (not the sound)but she missed it somehow. I hope better singles are on the way. She CAN do better!!!

Why musdt Timbaland show his fug in every video fo the people he produces? Must be in the contract or somehting.
luvMachine
I’m really disappointed with her colab with Timbaland and not so much with Timberlake. Timbaland vocal appearances in any of his productions are truly awful and this latest is proof. With so many producers available why go with the obvious, if not to completely sell-out. This is Madonna’s sell-out.
A waste of 4 minutes indeed!

Well… I am a diehard Madonna fan and I am a diehaard JT fan. So this video has me creaming my underwear at the office! All those other self-important bitches out there who have a problem with that… suck this!
william
P.S. The video has been removed from YouTube, but I already downloaded it thanks to Mozilla Firefox technology (or that of their contributors). JT is still the sexiest man alive, at the moment.
Jim (The Canuck One)
@#6 – A waste indeed. All that dancing and singing and they didn’t even save the world like they promised.
REBELComx
Yeah I’ve been hearing this on the radio for weeks now…I’m sick of it already. It’s not that good. It sounds like the last 3 or 4 JT songs, and the FAKE trumpet chorus used to make up the beat just sounds really really cheap and annoying.
Jim
I like the song. I don’t like the video. I’d like to know what songs you like?
Chubarama
It’s so completely mediocre and generic, which is bad enough. That it’s a Madonna single that sounds like every other Timbaland track makes it a sonic abortion.
codymurp
No me gusta!
DavidDust
I liked it. Maybe there’s something wrong with me…
Mike
I LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!
sugarsmack
I keep getting older and Madonna keeps getting more brightly lit (and richer). I must be awake then.
afrolito
Love the song! Love the video!
Seems a lot of other people love it too, since it’s currently #3 on the billboard charts (and rising)#1 on iTunes, #1 iTunes video, and #1 in more countries than I can count at the moment.
Madonna, Justin, and Timba rule.
GranDiva
I’d rather suck a cock. But then, I feel that way about most things.
ChristopherM
I like the song, but I have a problem with it. Every time Madonna has collaborated with co-writers and producers, the end product sounds like she was the guiding creative force. This sounds like something Timberlake and Timbaland would produce for anyone like Rhianna or Beyonce. It isn’t a Madonna product. That makes me a bit sad.
faghag
I LOVE IT!
Tonic
I’m not a die-hard fan by any means, but I like it. What a strange, sweeping headline.
I have to agree with ChristopherM though, I wish it had more of a Madonna stamp on it than just a typical Timbaland stamp. And yeah, I wish they’d kept Timbaland’s stupid vocals at the beginning out (and the “Tick-tocks”).
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the video.
Chris
I think it’s quite good, both the song and the video. Harsh judgment form many people (including the article writer) to be sure, but to each his own.
lucblanchet
Although I’m a strong believer of freedom of speech, I’m starting to think that I’m “wasting” my time with this blog. This woman still got it, and she wants to make sure people remember what she’s capable of doing. The song at first was a bit too “Hip/Hop” to my taste, but it has grown on me. It’s got the Madonna “stamp” all over it, she was totally in control of this production. And I’m sorry, but the video is f***ing amazing!! Look at her!! She’s 49…….. will most of us still be able to pull it off at 49?? Despite all that… I’ll use Chris’s words, “to each his own”.
david
Afrolito and Lucblanchet are right on. This blog is a huge pile of idiocy smothered in bad grammar and sprinkled with tasty misspellings.
steve
i’m gonna fall in the camp that thinks this is really, really bad
just awful
that little *madonna* bit is just ridiculous
she was so good once upon a time – up till “the immaculate collection” era – after that, she just started bloodsucking producers for her success
can’t stand jt either
blah
Trick
I was a bit “iffy” about the song at first but it has grown on me and I really like the video. Madonna looks H-O-T!!
Mike
You’re right Steve, blah blah blah
was all I heard outta you.
now blah blah blah.
todd
It’s almost as bad as Die Another Day, but not quite!
KPB
I’m a diehard. Love the song. Iffy on the video. I was expecting something a lot more sexy.
steve
uh, dear mike: blah
i will never forgive that woman for sinking her fangs into william orbit
i just saw mirwais on the side of a milk carton
the carcass of shep pettibone is somewhere in the crawlspace of her english estate
like i said, blah
i don’t give a fuck
i sucks
Peter
IT SUCKS! Can anyone even hum a few bars of her duet with Britney, “Me Against The Music”? Madonna is a shameless rip off artist. Suck onto the latest young dance artist like a child molestor and “collaborate”. She sold her soul to the devil in the back rooms at Danceteria.
ridwah
I really like the song. Didn’t as much at first, but it’s grown on me. And I really enjoyed the video. Except I found it odd that her hair didn’t move much, and the editing at the end was all over the place. I don’t get it. You have a choreographed dance sequence between two great dancers. Show it to me!
rob
I’m completely Team Kylie now…Madonna’s collaborations with Brit and Justin are embarrassing.
chadnnocal
Hopefully the dance remix will make the song tolerable. Is it just me or does Madonna’s face look like Courtney Cox?
Distherbed
To all you traitors, heretics and haters:
Madge is the Queen and don’t you forgot it! She’s the Judy Garland of our generation and if she died tomorrow, the gays would be rioting in the streets all over again!
P.S. And like most of her songs, “Four Minutes” grows on you.
sugarsmack
Madonna-lunatics get my panties in a bunch. Keep cool. Keep cool.
mrmansonx
I kept thinking of SJP as carey bradshaw whenever they close up on madonna’s face.
Dora Ratquila
Perhaps it will sound better once the remix is out. It’s okay.
leomoore
I don’t get the reverence for Judy Garland, Streisand, or Madonna. Is there something wrong with me? I still like other men a lot.
Andrew
More disposable trash from Madonna.
