Another day, another Madonna leak from the ‘Hard Candy’ vaults – and like ‘Across The Sky‘ before it, ‘Animal‘ is surprisingly listenable!
Beat-wise, ‘Animal’ somehow reminds us of both Nelly Furtado’s ‘Maneater’ and Rihanna’s ‘Breaking Dishes’ – no bad thing – but with a melodic Madge twist that ties the whole thing together rather nicely. You can tell Timbaland was involved, and we can’t help but wonder why it was jettisoned in favour of other, less interesting ‘Hard Candy’ cuts.
