Madonna - Turn Up The Radio (Demo) (Studio Quality)

[@TheNikkowolf]

Story time Once upon a time, I was joshing uncharacteristically, about the newest bit of music to look forward to. New music by Madonna. This was a few years ago and MDNA was the albums title, and a few bits and pieces here teased at here and there in the Interwebs. Being a fan for years, and with this new way of exploring for any form of satisfaction of listening to her new music, I spent many hours, on limewire I believe, for any sounds from her lips that I’ve never heard before. I grew up feeling like a cog almost all my youth. Never thinking I mattered. And one day, I tried to see her, and I did. She looked at me as she sang, and ever since then I’ve feel seen. And still do, and look forward to everything I’m going to do in this life, but I digress. I learned the title of this song thru said Interwebs, and found a file. It sounded like it came from a concert as I heard ppl speaking during the song, but it certainly was called Turn On The Radio. I didn’t know at the time it was an incomplete demo, but it didn’t matter. I fell in love with it. Once the base dropped, in that grainy recording, I felt the crowds energy. I couldn’t make out the lyrics, so I made up my own. While partly ashamed for not buying the song, I knew I would be first to purchase this new album and especially this new song. It’s not fair I think, and there must be some kind of human nature to adhere to initial thoughts, but the released version supremely disappointed me. The bass drop was gone. The repeated flow, the lyrics. It was just not what I heard. And it felt like I missed an opportunity. Like we all missed an opportunity. Here I am years later, so thankful to find this complete version. I felt the base drop. I hear the lyrics. I smiled and turn up my radio, drowning out the state of the world, and feeling hopeful. As that disappointment I felt years ago, has finally been lifted up, and celebrated Thank you

Man I have looking for an HD copy of this for YEARS. Thank you!!!!!

[@bipluz]

Me too.

[@kentaujicroove]

Hell yeah me too!

[@Asdftorga]

I really wish someone remixed the beginning of this song with the final MDNA version, because I really like Madonna’s lyrics arrangements better, however, the sound in this really gets me!

[@madgeglasgow]

Yes!!

[@jamesroldandehorta3891]

Me parece que turn up the radio y superstar tienen mucha influencia de hello de solveig,ya que la primera se grabó para el álbum de martín pero quedó fuera

[@dubmoyet]

Waaaaaay better than the final album version !!!

Thank you. I love this version. It's so much better than the album version.

[@JMSJR25]

So awesome to hear the Sunday Girl vocal. Thank you for uploading!

[@kiohero]

This makes the song seem so much better with actual substance.

[@teresakiernan8195]

Love this synth pop version. It’s by far the best version and it should have been released. Agree with Bipluz, so much better than albumn version. Martin Solveig produced it?

[@SCiccone89]

Soooo good

[@mrdompaul]

Take a few turns, and..., cuz there's no others passing by, dont think too much..., and turn up the radio. Cuz the world is in our hands, it doesn't matter where it ends, let's take a ride right before the show, and turn up the radio. Turn up the radio, turn up the radio. How does this whole world go? Just wanna see it flow, don't wanna take it slow, and turn up the radio. Could we be out of line? Are we gonna find the time? Just keep it loud, and I'll be fine, and turn up the radio. *I think those are the lyrics, but that's all I can get. Does anyone know more?*

"This next song I wanna hear everybody singing" "You got that?... Are you ready?" When the world starts to get you down And nothing seems to go your way And the noise of the maddening crowd Makes you feel like you're going to go insane There's a glow of a distant light Calling you to come outside To feel the wind on your face and your skin And it's here I begin my story ("Let me hear you!") Turn up the radio Turn up the radio ("Louder!") Don't ask me where I wanna go We gotta turn up the radio! It was time that I opened my eyes I'm leaving the past behind Nothing's ever what it seems! Including this time and this crazy dream! I'm stuck like a moth to a flame! ("oh, yeah!") I'm so tired of playing this game I don't know how I got to this state Let me out of my cage 'cause I'm dying! Turn up the radio ("I can't hear you!") Turn up the radio Don't ask me where I wanna go We gotta turn up the radio Turn up the radio Turn up the radio ("Come on, everybody!") Don't ask me where I wanna go We gotta turn up the radio I just wanna get in my car I wanna go fast and I gotta go far Don't ask me to explain how I feel 'Cause I don't want to say where I'm Turn down the noise and Turn up the volume Don't have a choice 'cause the Temperature's pounding If leaving this place Is the last thing I do Then I want to escape With some people just like Buzzin' around like a moth to a flame I'm so sick and tired OF PLAYING THIS GAME!!!! We gotta have fun If that's all that we do Gotta shake up the systme and break all the rules Gotta turn up the radio until the speakers BLOW!!! Turn up the radio ("I can't hear you!") Turn up the radio Don't ask me where I wanna go, no! We gotta turn up the radio Turn up the radio! Turn up the radio! There's some things you don't need to know Just let me turn up the radio Turn up the radio! Just let me turn up the radio! Just let me turn up the radio!

[@howarddalton8436]

there are 2 versions of this classic song - choose your weapon - its a matter of preference

[@equestriandisco]

The production is better here but M has better lyrics that i think really sum up how she felt about life post divorce

[@jonathanguzman6398]

I was thinking the same, that M had the lyrics and this the melody

[@revoltijo11]

I hate how Martin Solveig's demos were used without nothing drastical changing, while on the Rebel Heart album, Avicii's demos were drastically changed, like Wash All Over Me. Such a shame.

[@AlexeBriand2002]

revoltijo11 Avicii’s demos were trash

[@scp0460gdfan]

This sounds like a 90s song so bad and i like it But i understand she wanted a modern feel and this feels like a song from ray of light at the start so yes

[@bussololipop]

man, i love u!

[@wopaelwopael8469]

thx for sharing!

[@cesarg852]

good but I prefer the album version!

[@cesarg852]

Me after 1 year: Sorry Cesar, now you love this version lol

[@remingtongraves]

God-awful. Thank goodness Madonna rewrote it and added her own production. She’s a master at creating perfect pop songs.

[@Isidro-xw7vd]

WTF!!! This sounds better than the official version! It haa something that the other is missing: emotion. Madonna sounds dry and bored in the other one. The instrumental here is also better. Damn, what happened?

[@michaelleger1677]

It doesn't sound like Madonna but better than the album version

[@misterTVman]

It's not Madonna!

[@craige.romney5760]

it’s SUNDAY GIRL

[@erregi4946]

Sounds a bitt like "Video killed the radio stars" andI hugely prefer this version over the album one

[@theusersam]

I'm a huge Madonna fan but I really disliked the MDNA album. Except Love Spent and Masterpiece. It was her angry post-divorce era :)

[@nateboytwo]

It’s NOT Madonna / and the version Madonna sings is SO MUCH BETTER !!

[@craige.romney5760]

better than M’s version

[@FERDINANDVSLVCIVS]

Love Madonna, but she took whatever momentum was there in this piece and shreded it to rags. This version's way better.

[@carladanielapgm12]

tHis version is good. The final version MDNA IS BETTER.

[@SCiccone89]

Cute but not as good as M's.

[@lecio2440]

“oh this is better” come on, it’s an unfinished piece

[@kaiciccone1657]

Far better than Madonnas version . Probably one of her worste singles

[@MCobos]

this does not have any message, madonna's performance of this song is pure energy

[@firouz4296]

Too many to choose from! I couldn't say which one is worst since Confessions! Horrible generic shit with reductive lyrics that are beneath her...I keep listening to demos lately hoping to find a fragment of what used to be. All emotion in her voice is auto tuned away, the music seems plastic and the storytelling has completely dissapeared! EDM is the lowest form of electronic music and she seems stuck in it like a fly in a piece of shit!
