Madonna's manager Guy Oseary responded to the leak of the singer's new demos yesterday by relaying a message from the pop queen: "My true fans wouldn't do this." Oseary addressed the leak of the track "Give Me All Your Love" on Twitter, noting that while the Madonna camp is pleased with positive reactions to the tune, they are "very upset with whoever leaked the song." Madonna's team have been successful in removing the track from most sites.

Oseary clarified that the version of "Give Me All Your Love" that surfaced online earlier this week is unfinished, and work on the singer's next album is not yet complete. "It should be done in the next month or so," he wrote. The record, which has not yet been titled, will be Madonna's first studio album since leaving Warner Bros. Records and entering a deal with Live Nation that covers touring and merchandising as well as her recorded output. According to Billboard's sources, the disc will likely be released though Universal Music Group in the United States.

“(We're Not) The Jet Set”

George Jones and Tammy Wynette | 1973

George Jones and Tammy Wynette were still married when they recorded the tongue-in-cheek "(We're Not) The Jet Set." The lyrics, written by Nashville songwriter Bobby Braddock, who also penned Wynette's "D-I-V-O-R-C-E" and Jones' "He Stopped Loving Her Today," make fun of the good life by declaring, "We're not the Jet Set/We're the old Chevrolet set." Braddock recalled that while writing the song, he needed the name of a city that evened out the rhyme he had with "Riviera" and "Missourah." “I got out a Rand McNally atlas," he said. "In the first part are the maps. The last part is an alphabetical listing of cities. I wanted a rustic, small-time sound. I went to the listing for Missouri. And I found 'Festus.' I loved the sound of it."
