Madonna "Give it 2 me"

Dopo "4 minutes" ecco il singolo successore per Madonna. Co-prodotto e scritto assieme ai Neptunes (dietro ai quali si nasconde Pharrel Philliams, che compare anche nel video) il nuovo singolo si distacca nettamente dallo stile del primo, risultando quindi subito apprezzabile per le nuove sonorità.
Fin dall'inizio si capisce subito che abbiamo di fronte un singolo che ci accompagnerà per tutta l'estate e quindi melodie trascinanti al limite tra hip-hop/dance/electro. Difficile quindi inquadrare "Give it 2 me" (ascolta) in una casella stilista ben precisa, rimane in ogni caso uno stile veloce, con tastiere e basso (soprattutto per l'inizio del brano) che la fanno da padrone che potrebbero ricordare uno stile reggae, influenzato in maniera pesante dall'elettronica.
Non mancano effetti sonori e vocoder sulla voce di Madonna e tastiere quasi acid (ma pur sempre piacevoli) a fare da contorno nella canzone.


Testo | Lyrics

What are you waiting for?
Nobody's gonna show you how
Why work for someone else
To do what you can do right now?

Got no boundaries and no limits
If there's excitement, put me in it
If it's against the law, arrest me
If you can handle it, undress me

Don't stop me now, don't need to catch my breath
I can go on and on and on
When the lights go down and there's no one left
I can go on and on and on

Give it 2 me, Yeah
No one's gonna show me how
Give it 2 me, Yeah
No one's gonna stop me now

They say that a good thing never lasts
And then it has to fall
Those are the the people that did not
Amount to much at all

Give me the bassline and I'll shake it
Give me a record and I'll break it
There's no beginning and no ending
Give me a chance to go and I'll take it

Don't stop me now, don't need to catch my breath
I can go on and on and on
When the lights go down and there's no one left
I can go on and on and on

Give it 2 me, Yeah
No one's gonna show me how
Give it 2 me, Yeah
No one's gonna stop me now

Pharrell: Watch this

Get stupid, get stupid, get stupid, don't stop it (What?)
Get stupid, get stupid, get stupid, don't stop it (What?)
Get stupid, get stupid, get stupid, don't stop it (What?)
Get stupid, get stupid, get stupid, don't stop it

Get stupid, get stupid, get stupid, don't stop it
(To the left, to the right, to the left, to the right)
Get stupid, get stupid, get stupid, don't stop it
(To the left, to the right, to the left, to the right)
Get stupid, get stupid, get stupid, don't stop it
(To the left, left, right, right, left, left, right, right)
Get stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid...
(Left, left, right, right, left, left, right, right)

Don't stop me now, don't need to catch my breath
I can go on and on and on
When the lights go down and there's no one left
I can go on and on and on

Give it 2 me, Yeah
No one's gonna show me how
Give it 2 me, Yeah
No one's gonna stop me now

You're only here to win
Get what they say?
You're only here to win
Get what they do?
They'd do it too
If they were you
You done it all before
It ain't nothing new

You're only here to win
Get what they say?
You're only here to win
Get what they do?
They'd do it too
If they were you
You done it all before
It ain't nothing new

Give it 2 me, Yeah
No one's gonna show me how
Give it 2 me, Yeah
No one's gonna stop me now

Give it 2 me, Yeah
No one's gonna show me how
Give it 2 me, Yeah
No one's gonna stop me now

Give it 2 me

Lei è sempre in formissima come in ogni video! Davvero grande! E questo video (e la canzone pure) mi piace molto più di "4 minutes"!
