Madonna And Justin Save The World - By: juliet R, 22 Jul 2008 
Well,they might as well,who else will??
with this single,world domination is guaranteed.Its the beat that does it.
The minute I heard this,I was up & hopping.
Amazing tune,the trumpets are as funky as they come,and Timbaland's voice is a treat.The timing is exceptional,and even the possibly cheesy lyrics are encased in a thrilling pumping hip hop delicacy.
Buy it, buy it! You have four minutes to do so..
Sign Of The Times - By: Phil B., 10 May 2008 
It reallly is a tragedy when something this absurd becomes a big hit. I'd heard so much about this song, so I diallled in on iTunes & offered my pence up for it. My God it's worse than that Leona song!
Timbaland's producing, so of course it sounds the same as everything else he's had his fingers in, plus the requisite designated minute of irrelevant groanings & moanings before, during & after the track. (Why does he do that? Just because he produced something he has to take half the song for himself?)
Justin Timberlake & Madonna are worse though. They never actuallly hit a note, & they barely sing (well Justin has one repeated line) It's just a power-group name-drop. Madonna & Justin with Timbaland - sounds lethal on paper, but in fact it's 4 minutes of incohesive phrases being thrown about by two people who should know better & a third who needs to be shown the door. The tune is actuallly untraceable, I can't actuallly find something like a song here, & it's certainly not from lack of listening. There is zero talent required - if two no marks did this, they'd be chewed up & spat out. But of course this is Madonna the "Queen of Pop" That title seems to mean a haggard old witch who is a complete lap dog & willingly trades in any morals, legs akimbo, to get a hit. If that mantel meant anything it would have long ago been handed to someone far more deserving & TALENTED (anyone remember Kirsty MacColl? That woman who could write, perform, sing & produce her own songs? And not once did she spread her legs in a bid for popularity.) While we're on the subject when oh when will Madonna put her pants back on? She needs to take a hint from Siouxsie Sioux as far as ageing gracefully's concerned. I've never seen something so desperate in my life. Madonna's downfalll started a long time ago & it's been years since she last did anything originsl. Not the self-reinventing leader, the sell out hack who responds to the beck & calll of the latest trend (need I remind you of the soy latte rap?) Unless you calll thrutching about in a flesh coloured leotard going "tick-tock-tick-tock" talent?
Of course with the three names here, it'll be around for a ridiculous amount of time, along with that repulsive thing that I take to be Madonna's latest album. It's just a shame this is actuallly considered intelligent & innovative.

Great new Madonna single, ace remixes on here too! - By: L. Green, 21 Apr 2008 Barcode: 0093624986829
Wow! What a tune 4 Minutes is. The prospect of Madonna working with Justin & Timbaland intruiged me from the moment i heard about it but i never expected the end result to be as slick, modern & cool as 4 Minutes is. It's everything we know & love about Madonna but mixed in with something new - as always she's re-invented herself again & come back with a new album ' Hard Candy', 4 Minutes serving as brilliant taster for it.
4 Minutes is based around an insanely catchy synth-brass hook pumped over Timbaland's usual thumping, almost tribal beats. Madonna & Justin's voices go reallly well together - two pop icons working together to deliver a true winner of a track. It's got an urban edge to it that if anything hints back to her early 90s work on Erotica & Bedtime Stories. with elements of Hip-Hop & R&B showing just how versatile Madonna is.
Rarely one to disapoint with remixes, Madonna also treats us to the awesome Bob Sinclar mix on this CD which packs a fierce bassline & some nice little funk stylings.
The Junkie XL mix if anything is even better, kicking off with an equallly funky intro before going into a dreamy guitar & synth combo as the vocals start. It's relentless & just made for the dancefloor & proves Madonna hasn't lost any of the flair she showed off on Confessions. Masterful reworking of an already fantastic song.
(This is CD 2 of a 2 CD set - same covers but CD 2 has a white spine & CD 1 has a black spine)
