Madonna and Martin Solveig - Give Me all Your Luvin'



Madonna has announced a world tour, and has confirmed a show at the Stade de France in Paris on July 14, as well as a date in Nice on August 21

The announcement of tour follows a week that saw her perform at the half time of the Superbowl, a highlight of the USA's sporting calendar which was screened in over 200 countries.

Among the tracks she performed was her new single Give Me All Your Luvin', co-written and produced by French DJ and producer Martin Solveig, one of several of the producers working with her on her new album MDNA.

It is her first major tour since her Sticky and Sweet tour which ran in 2008 and 2009, and will coincides with the release of MDNA, out on March 26.

Arthur Fogel, CEO Live Nation Entertainment Global Touring and Madonna tour promoter said: "Madonna's track record as a world class entertainer and touring artist speaks for itself. Her artistry, talent and creative productions get bigger and better with each tour and Madonna 2012 will be no exception.

"We are thrilled to have her back on the road and know her fans feel the same."

Her previous shows in France were marred by tragedy, after a stage that was being built for a show at the Stade Velodrome in Marseilles collapsed the day before the concert, resulting in two deaths and several workers being injured. The concert was cancelled.

Madonna's last CD Hard Candy, debuted at Number 1 in 37 countries including France as well as the US, UK, Canada and Australia.

Tickets for the Paris show go on sale on February 14, as do tickets for the show at the Stade Charles-Erhmann in Nice.

Charts: David Guetta - Turn Me On



With David Guetta hitting the number one place in the UK Official Singles Chart with Titanium I thought I'd give a mention to his most recent single, Turn Me On.

This new track is also in the UK Top 40, at number 33, another track Without You just outside the Top 40 at number 42.

Turn Me On is the fifth track to be taken from last year's Nothing But The Beat album as a single, and features Nicki Minaj on vocals.

With Minaj best known for her eccentric styled rapping, it's quite a different vocal performance on this track.

The video, which emerged at the end of January 2012, is a big budget steampunk fantasy which, like the best music videos, both compliments the song and adds another dimension to it.

Minaj's appearance with Madonna at the US Superbowl with Madonna will probably give the song's sales another boost, although a link to the biggest sporting event on US TV is probably just another small step in Guetta's seemingly indefatigable world domination campaign.
