There are a lot of speculations and doubts regarding a listing session for Madonna's forthcoming album. DrownedMadonna.com can confirm that there was INDEED a listening session at the offices of her new record company.

It took place at the beginning of the third decade of last month, before any info regarding the first single "Give Me All Your Love" leaked.

Nine songs have been played and they got a very good reaction. The sound is described as very fresh. As we already reported, the album has nothing to do with "Hard Candy" - fortunately we say!

During the listening session with the label representatives the ballad to be included in the soundtrack of W.E. has been played as well.
